Dunmer v Imperial Dragonknight

Blud · March 2015

Looks like most people are rolling Imperials for just about everything because of Red Diamond and stamina racials. This includes Dragonknights. It used to be that Dunmer were considered the best race for DK by a lot or people back during sticks and dresses days.

Which race do you think is better for DKs now? Is it about whether you want to make a magicka- or stamina-based DK?

Dunmer is still technically the best due to the increase in Magic, Stamina, and Fire damage. If you want to make a tank then roll Imperial, Imperial is a great race all-around, you can't really go wrong with the passives, it doesn't help Magicka builds much but still. I made my Dragonknight an Imperial so I could run with a lot more Stamina and Health in PvP, and use what was left over for Magicka.

@Panda244 Yeah, I'm thinking of making my level 32 Dunmer DK magicka-based and rolling up a new stam-based DK just for tanking. Though, I question whether leveling up so many toons is sane.

If you're using a Dunmer then definitely make it a Magicka-based character, Imperial for a Stamina-DK works great, the Red Diamond passive is borderline OP when you're using something like Two-Handed or Dual Wield, as far as character leveling goes....

I got my Nightblade to Veteran Rank 14 in 9 total days of playtime. She currently has something like 75-90 total days played, a lot of it was idling and roleplaying until 6am, or PvP until 8am... I have insomnia so eh.

My Dragonknight... Crassus... Down in my signature... Heh. Heh. Heh. Created him before I made my Nightblade, leveled him to about level 7, forgot he existed, 3 months later, oh look, I have a DK! Got him to level 28. Quit playing him for another 2 months, then I PvP'd in Blackwater Blade for about... 2 weeks, and got to Veteran Rank 1, and Emperor, then I grinded in Craglorn for 2 months.

So.... Yeah..... When it comes to MMOs I only start leveling alts when I've lost almost all interest in my main character... Now Crassus is technically my main and I hardly play on N'tel anymore, so I would say no... It's not sane... Grab the munchies and the caffeine, you're gonna need it.
