    Well, magdk is really weak now. Whip is called "a wet noodle" for a reason and new skill cost increase doesn't help either.

    Yeah they do.

    But they still need a buff.

    Oh im using ZOS logic by the way

    The whole game is based around dks, it always has been. Other classes are just novelty value

    Nerf sorcs.

    That's one hard hitting wet noodle then. It hits as hard as a Swallow Soul on my MagBlade (similar SD and Magicka Values)

    lol
    SS hits much harder with the same gear set. And it costs less 1100 magicka.

    Not ot mention that whip is a melee attack and ss is ranged. Want to compare the damage of concealed weapon to whip's? :)

    SS hits much harder with the same gear set. And it costs less 1100 magicka.

    With 2606 SD and 41515 Magicka on MagBlade: Swallow Soul hits for 8629 Damage
    With 2172 SD and 41352 Magicka on Mag DK: Flame Lash hits for 8421 Damage

    Like I said: that's one hard hitting wet noodle

    PS: I have SS too, in case you want proof
    PS2: CP spread is exactly the same for both of them too
    PS3 (Edit): CW on MagBlade hits for 9314 Damage. But still: with 500 extra SD on Mag DK, Flame Lash would be between the values of CW and Swallow Soul. It still hits hard, can apply burn DoT and chance for stronger Lash + self heal.

    Dude I know you may not agree with him but you don't have to act rude about it.

    I personally want mag DKs to he buffed but leave sorcs alone.

    OP is saying DKs need buffing because they are too weak. Others beg to differ. Given the statements made thus far and the fact OP has provided NO evidence to back his case makes this thread lean in favor of people saying Magicka DK is NOT underpowered. Until proven otherwise this thread is basically OP whining about DKs because they aren't making proper use of their own. When you see threads like these all the time you would develop the same skepticism too.

    Build Correctly.

    If you have 30k Mag, 30% crit and 1.5-2k spell power you build wrong.

    Goal: 33+k Magicka, 45%+ Crit, 2.5k+ Spell damage Unbuffed w/ food.

    Perhaps, but there are plenty here that would criticize him more bluntly than I did with my snarky L2P post due to his approach. In order to assist him we must know his race at the very least. His preferences would help too.

    Not here to troll but you are a little low on everything.
    40k magika 3k spell damage and 60% crit are easy to get if you have the correct race/build/skills.
    Anyway magika dk's are underpowered in PVP not in PVE
