My general DK solo build

Warlordgreebo

Firstly, I Wanted to be able to charge my ultimate fast.

So earth with the passive that gives you +ult...

Now get two bars.

Okay now, RIGHT BEFORE YOUR FIGHT; use the earth shield group buff, then the earth weapon buff, then the spikes buff, then use the destro staff debuff (#4 skill it is 40% debuff).

Now run right in and use the fire melee skill. Then use 1h/shield melee skill. First mob will be toast because you debuffed it and stacked your dmg.

Be sure to learn HOW to use shield, and when to do so.

Keep the draconic heal on your bar, as well as the heavy armor + armor + CC immunity for 8 seconds.

So your fighting bar will look like this;

1. fire melee hit
2. 1h/s melee hit
3. HEavy armor CC immunity
4. dragon blood heals
5. earth skill of your choice (im running petrify now, had kb before.
6. Draconic Banner Ultimate (for tanking in dungeon, nothing else will come close, nothing)

Buff bar
1. debuff enemy
2. (forget what I Got there maybe a staff skill)
3. earth wep buff
4. earth group absorb buff
5. petrify for CC


Thats it! Very badass solo build and badass group build. Preparing for fight each time, running buffs... youll find this setup is so badass... alot of the other things dont matter.

6. Draconic Banner Ultimate (for tanking in dungeon, nothing else will come close, nothing)
7. Magma armor disagrees.

CC imunity is irrelevant if you know how to block.
If your wearing heavy armor spikes buff isnt needed.

Vet rank 1 and i honestly only used ransack and greendragon blood from all the skills you just mentioned.

Well then, it seems getting vet 1 didnt cure you of density.

It is the STYLE that is important. You buff with earth before each fight, and it supercharges you for the fight.

I had Magma and just wasnt impressed. I use Draconic and im alive enemies dead. Yes I get the earth passive for the heal on ult use, but draconic still the only one worth it.

Furthermore when fighting groups eventually you gonna miss a block... but i agree overall 1h/shield is the best.

Also if you soloing in melee and not using unstable flame? Then I question your judgement entirely.

Im terrible sorry. I didnt know you meant unstable flame.
Naturally i use unstable flame.

Difficulty on mobs and elites increases exponentially. This build wont work there.

Well I am always in the mood to learn more. If you want to post a good build, please do.
