Best Race For Stamina DK

Ch4mpTW

With the upcoming release of SoH tomorrow for console, I'm planning on changing the race of my StamDK from an Orc. But, I am not quite sure which race to go with. Please post your choice below, with a solid explainafion of why.

By the way, this will be for primarily a PVE damage dealer in both content like Maelstrom Arena and trials.

Redguard

My initial thoughts are to go Redguard, due to the stamina sustain that they have. But, I don't know if I'll change it due to the feedback I'll receive and data.

I get the feeling a LOT of people will stop being Orcs unless that character is a crafter lol

And even then boosted inspiration is still useless... Orcs totally got shafted in the flavor department Should be a bonus to extraction chances.

1. As a dk, you need extra crit bonuses (unlike nb for example you can get them from passives)

2. Resource management will not be an issue since majority of damage comes from your dots, so you are not actually spamming anything, also you gain resources back when using ulti. And if you use 5 VO then thats even better. And if you use igneous weapon then you get stam back too (I use it as part of my rotation for minor brutality)

Well for purely PvE DPS Khajiit is best. Though I still took Redguard because the difference is rather small and I prefer having the sustain for long and stamina intensive fights like AA HM. But you can sustain perfectly fine on a Khajiit if played carefully enough.

Also, if PvP is even a small factor for your decision -> Redguard.

So the vibe I'm getting thus far is to go with my gut on Redguard, but if I want to be a bit more on the "glass cannon" side of things — go with Khajiit for the increased critical benefits. Correct?
