How to Level A DK

Jules

I made this video after a friend of mine picked up ESO recently and was very lost. It's essentially just a leveling guide detailing skills/morphs of DK, as well as a some more information to get you started with Dragonknight leveling.

Not a dig in the slightest, because I do it too and it's the reason I'm not one to make youtube vids, but you say "Umm" a lot and it distracts the viewer from the actual video. Think of it as constructive criticism.

Hahaha. No need to apologise. Like i said, I do it too. We're just not natural presenters. Some people just take to it like a duck to water. I'm more like a Sherman tank to water when I try to do youtube videos.

Yeah. I think it's mostly in the beginning and I noticed it after I watched again lol. Just not used to talking for extended time periods on vid. But overall good information so I hope it can be useful to some.

This should say "How to level an ardent flame DK". I have a DK that doesn't touch the skill.
I do plan on making a Dunmer flame based DK eventually though so this vid helps thanks.

True but your flame focused build is so much different then mine. I laughed a little when you say you ignore stonefist as that's a staple of mine. It breaks charged attacks without having to waste stamina to break or roll and knocks them down doing damage and leaving them stunned long enough to charge a full heavy attack which you will need to do after the next patch (they're patching the bonuses from "medium" attacks).
I'm not knocking it or anything just saying that everyone has different ways to build a class and level them according to what they use.

Agreed. There are multiple ways that dk can work, and some people prefer to build differently. I think stone fist is just so-so because I'd rather use whip for more damage and fossilize for CC. But that's just me. The great thing about dk is it's very versatile and many of the abilities work harmoniously with one another.

It's a very well thought out class. (Aside from the lack of reliable gap closer/execute/stam morph ST/ranged ability- but that's just my personal QQ)

My guy is stamina based though, I put just enough points in magic to use volatile armor, green dragon blood and igneous shield simultaneously with the occasional stonefist for reasons mentioned and it being my only ranged attack (the range will increase with the next patch yay). I'm no master builder but this works for me playing solo with my 2H heavy armor Orc craftsman.
