    I hope you'll be making your videos on the NA server.

    I hit a player (I checked the video a hundred times, it's a player, not a pet) with a 34,6K heavy attack and a 11,8K Stone Giant within half a second. DK really is the most versatile class in the game!

    Yup I run a similar build on my mag DK in pvp

    Any of those heavy attacks crit and it's GG. It's a really fun build to play though.

    "Here in his shrine, that they have forgotten. Here do we toil, that we might remember. By night we reclaim, what by day was stolen. Far from ourselves, he grows ever near to us. Our eyes once were blinded, now through him do we see. Our hands once were idle, now through them does he speak. And when the world shall listen, and when the world shall see, and when the world remembers, that world will cease to be. - Miraak

    No, if they have impen / heavy armor, usually only hits around 12-15k, sometimes lower if they are close to resistance caps. Most players seem to be either wearing several impen, heavy armor or have big 20k+ shields, so it ends up being something like heavy attack, crushing shock, medium attack (or 2nd heavy if they are far away), another crushing shock and then soul assault or dragon leap to finish.

    If they are super tanky, better to just walk away. For ganking, the goal is to kill someone quick and if you fail (which is a lot of the time), get away and get back into stealth.

    Been using Element 3D and After Effects for a long time, but now there is an awesome free alternative that can do the same stuff.

    Highly recommend Resolve + Fusion

    https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/davinciresolve

    https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/fusion

    These are both completely free - you only need the paid versions if you want to export larger than 4K or use network render farm.

    I was kidding, hopefully that was as clear as I thought it was lol. But if you're serious about not putting in effort, you can get templates for cheap and sometimes free. All you have to have is the program they used and put in your files/text/whatever. I used to cut so many corners with templates when I was an independent contractor doing video work lol

    By "no grinding", you mean stuff bought from gold & crafted sets, or are you excluding farming out of the "no grind?"

    Anyway, i like the concept of easy builds, but i'm bit skeptic of how they compete in PvP, since it is easy to edit out mistakes and gank fails etc.

    NB enthusiastic:
    1. Woodhippie stamblade - DW hard-hitter / PvE
    2. Know-it-all elf Magblade - Healer / PvE & PvP
    3. Hate-them-all elf Magblade - Destrostaff AoE monster / PvE
    4. Cyrodiil-Refugee stamblade - Stamina Tank / PvE

    Go dominion or go home

    Nightblade-Hipster. I played Nightblade before it was cool - from 1.5 onwards.

    Yea unfortunately I think this build would require some grind to truly min max. You'd want to use slimecraw, which means you'd need a sharpened elegant staff on the front bar, which is either a hefty chunk of gold, or a lot of hours spent farming it.

    Yes, all the builds featured in this series are based around sets that are crafted or cheap to acquire from guild traders and PVP vendor.

    And of course you are going to fail at ganks quite often, or gank someone and then get killed by others. The mobility is never going to be as great as it is with NB, but thanks to the recent improvement to fix the combat bug, you can get back into stealth much easier even on a DK.

    Keep in mind the goal for this build is not just big heavy attacks, but overall high ranged burst and being able to escape and reset. The build video will show various approaches and tactics.

    Been testing quite a lot of different combinations and sharpened elegant staff is definitely not needed for this build. 2pc slimecraw is perhaps the best monster helm if you have it, but other options work very well.
