Nord viable in pvp ?

BoiledEgg · November 2016

Hi, I have a stam dk nord leveled up that I was going to use for pve tanking but i changed idea and now I would like to use him for pvp, but would it perform good ?
I know that there are better races but I don't have time to make a new char.
Btw, I would do the usual tremorscale build, so kinda a tanky one.

I've heard conflicting reports on whether the Nord damage reduction stacks additively or multiplicatively with Battle Spirit - that would be the deciding factor for me. ZOS has a tendancy to do additive bonuse - thus people getting over 100% damage reduction when battle spirit was new, but I assume they've made changes since then.

You could put the tremorscale build on a potato and do fine, so yeah you'll be fine.

Nord is definetely more than just "Viable". Depending on what you want to do, it can be the best choice all together.

Battle Spirit is a totally seperate calculation. Nothing "Stacks" with Battlespirit. You basically just factor in Battlespirit, when you have reached the final number for ie. Damage/Healing etc. So there is no impact on the 6%.
