Hi, I'm sort of noob too

But, getting at least purple gear in a decent set is very important. Pick what sets you want, there are a lot of viable options. I'd recommend looking at a website and theory crafting. You will want full impen on everything so keep that in mind.

Next, you're probably going to want a Sharpened primary weapon (your 2h) of at least purple but ideally Legendary quality.

You want to make sure you are 'weaving' attacks, using a light attack between every Wrecking Blow (I'm maybe a bit wrong here.. WB has its own animation usage.. check a video and practice)

Finally, if you are stam, you pretty much Need to use Vigor

When I was PVPing borderline Noob I encountered these players who seemed very hard to kill while doing good damage.. what was that glowing gold they were using? Templar spell? No, they have DK skill.

Once I learned it was Vigor then earned it, I became way more durable. Suddenly I am one of the guys who cannot be brought down easily. (it wont help in absolutely every fight though. Sometimes I find a duel is a straight out damage rush, sometimes it's more of stat management.. the difference makes it fun and exciting and trying to read the right time to use what)

As a DK, you can combine Vigor with Igneous for increased healing. You definitely want Vigor, igneous is extra.

Vigor is a HoT but it ticks.

So first thing with your bars is to drop green dragon blood and replace it with vigor. It's up to you where to fit igneous.

Finally, I would balance out your stam and hp, using enchants on your final gear set. Your stam is a bit high and your HP a bit low. Lots press for high stam but I find a higher HP pool to be nice.

This is some really helpful info thanks for sharing this!.

I think from this i will defo redo my stat points to have more hp is there any recommendation you think i should go as in 20 hp and the rest in stam or?

Using vigor with igneous clears a lot with me and not use green dragon blood i feel like such a new start coming up with the best build is really difficult in this game. Then of course gear is there any medium sets you would recommend?

Thanks again

I hope it catches you in time, keep all your stat points in stam

You will be able to balance it out with Enchants

there is a good list of sets here

Viper is really popular for the proc but I would consider Strength of the Automaton or Spriggans instead, personally, maybe sword singer

These will be found from drops

I like the Tel Var sets, I don't know what others think of it but I think the Powerful Assault set sounds pretty good if you're going to be PVPing in a group, since you will be casting Vigor to keep that buff up a lot. Shield breaker would be useful against damage shield sorcs who are very powerful but niche, and a bit against some templars

You can go Draugr hulk, even Salvation if you like to use WW a lot

Ultimately it is your choice and there are a lot of options depending on what skills and weapons you want to use

Those are just my picks.. maybe you would prefer a roll dodge set, or a crit build. There are a lot of great options that I think you can make work.

edit - somehow I forgot about widowmaker though I've been saving all my impen pieces of it.
