    Isn't that kinda like "inb4 - why did you stand next to him?

    Anyways, you need to look at that again. I was in no banner when I engaged.

    He dropped 2 on me within 4 secs and had dropped several more before I had arrived.

    Yeah, because standing inside a DK's banner is the best possible thing you can do.

    Learn the skills of your enemy to be able to defeat your enemy.

    I am a DK and here is what my banner does when I drop one.

    Standard of Might:
    Enemies take 169 flame damage every second and receive 50% less healing for 17 seconds. While on standard of might, player deals 35% more damage and takes 35% less damage.

    Placing a banner regenerates 50% hp, 50% magika and 50% stamina (although this stat is not mentioned in the description)

    So it's very simple. Move away from them when they place a banner. Not all jump on his face because guess what? The more people that jump on him, the faster he can but another banner down.

    Well what kind of suggestion do you expect? Banner is a very powerful area ability. Roll out of it and it is suddenly useless. It's really just that.
    Also, looking at the video I'd say you and pretty much all of your friends were underleveled/terrible. No cc of any sort nor much damage dealt to him. People standing around or auto-attacking

    So when they come into your keep/tower/space and spam 5 banners on your flag, roll out of it? gotcha.

    Hope the DK stands there, and doesn't move 3 yards to the left, and spam another banner.

    I watched the youtube video and you're clearly standing inside his banner, your hp is dropping and you're just attacking him. You have plenty of stamina to roll out, not just once but multiple times.

    It's just a learning curve. Maybe you didn't notice the banner? Maybe you forgot to roll? I don't know but a DK is only powerful if his enemies are stupid.

    Everyone and their grandma knows to roll out of banners. Yet you just stand there and wonder why you died?

    Thats ultimate cost reduction right there. I think this has less to do with DKs and more to do with ultimate cost reduction being stupid as far as balance is concerned. We said this exact same thing about Vampires, but Zenimax fixed the abilities instead of the gear itself.

    You don't get it. Ultimate cost reduction is leading to a lot of problems in both PvE and PvP. Classes can solo a lot of dungeons because they can stack ultimates over and over again. In PvP its the same, if you have the right gear you can use your ultimate several times in a 1 on 1 fight. I've seen cases where a players main attack is their ultimate, so yeah...

    Edit: What DK ultimate reduction ability are you talking about? I must be missing something, since I play a DK and I have have not seen this ability. Could you please elaborate?

    Ultimate reduction should be a class specific buff. Remove the gear from the game completely. This should have happened with the vamp fix.

    One time I went 1v1 against a VR2 DK; I was VR1 so it was pretty well matched.
    He dropped a flag, I rolled out of the circle and attacked him with ranged skills until it ended.
    He was too afraid to leave his circle, so he sat there taking hits hoping I would go back in; I guess he didn't have enough magicka to pull me or didn't expect someone to counter by leaving the circle and didn't have a pull on his bar.

    After his circle ran out he tried rushing me. I melted him with a Soul Assault.

    TL;DR:
    Move out of the circle, and stay out of the circle; it's a bad place to be.

    Yes, move. Most of the times you can. If you can't it means you are fighting in a very tight space (like the small rooms at the sides of a bridge gatehouse). In that case you are fully aware of the risks in doing so and you should likely only had done it if you could benefit from it.
    As for the spam, it was already pointed out how it depends on ultimate cost reduction, which I agree is far too good.

    Dragonknights don't actually have a class passive that reduces ultimate cost reduction.

    Class specific buff for ultimate cost reduction wouldn't help things, there shouldn't be any ultimate cost reduction passives outside of the Vampire ones, and the currenty ultimate cost reduction gear should have lower percentage reductions so it can't be stacked high enough to make ultimates trivial to cast.

    For the past two days ultimate generating has been nerfed. Earthen heart is supposed to generate a bit of ultimate points per use, which makes sense since most of those skills cost about 300-400 magicka, but now it's just jammed.

    Dk have no mobility, short range spells and no execute while every other class gets an execute.

    Anyone can get a gap closer via 1 Hand and Shield (Shield Charge) or 2 handed (critical charge). They can also get an execute if they were to use a 2 handed weapon (reverse slash), but why would they need to?

    They can LolTalons you over and over, put up searing strike and hold block all day to kill anyone. Add an ultimate - (spammable that does incredible damage+player damage+player reduced damage taken) AND an INSTANT heal that gives you stamina regen as well as half your missing HP.

    I vote that ZOS listens to this guy - Give DKs a gap closer and execute, then remove BrokenTalons, Standard of Skill and Dragon Blood.

    Your attempts to defend your class are pitiful.

    You don't even know what you're talking about. If heavy armor/medium armor, talon cost ~1/4 magika bar, and if you spam it, you can't use Dragon Blood -wich give 30% of the missing health, not 50%. Plus, you can escape the flag ultimate with ONE DODGE ROLL.

    Truth is, you're not good at PvP. L2P.

    I don't know how many times ive dodge rolled away only to have a DK shield charge me and throw another talons down or rolled away only for them to take a step forward and repeat the process. Plus the "good" ones know they can build enough ultimate shield charging into groups that they can throw multiple standards down.

    Its tough being able to regen the amount of stamina and health that they can while maintaining the ability to block at a 360 degree angle.
