{dragon knight} discussion about build possiblieites, weapon choice, armor choice.

Nocturne Saint

So I have an idea of how i want to play a dragon knight, but not sure how all this is going to work.

Plan on wearing heavy armor
plan on using some kind of melee and the fire class skills
plan on going 1 for 1 between mana and health

but not sure about everything, iffy about weapon choices and how the stats will work out.

does increase in magicka per leve up increase spell damage?

got a lot of ideas on this but still kinda iffy,
would like some insight.

Yes... spell damage is influenced by your max magicka
If you are going for max fire damage you might also want to consider playing a Dunmer for the fire racial weapon choice will depend on what else you want to do... sword and board for tanking.. maybe 2-hander for dps, or Destruction staff for ae's
Also if you are relying on spell damage you might consider light armor for the magicka passives.

You're going to be hurting for magicka as a DK. Good luck with heavy armor unless you're going a more stamina heavy build. Use sword and shield for groups and dual wield for single target as a stamina DK.
