I need to get 44 player kills, 1 imperial city district capture and 1 battlegrounds win.
I'm a dunmer vampire dragonknight ebonheart pact member my whole PvE build is next to trash in PvP and I'm wondering if there is anyone who could actually help me get these achievements I can't solo a district I can't get a win in battlegrounds and the clock is ticking to the end of the event sad face: (

I think what you prefer is stamina DK.

Simply reallocate all your attributes to stamina (0-0-64) and search youtube for stamina DK builds, see which you like most and go with it.
And when I say go with it, I mean every single little detail.

In the meantime, ask a frien or guildie to show you the ropes.
You need to have a good understanding of ESO combat mechanics before you can start making your own builds.

The kills are much faster in battlegrounds because you will be scoring more kills there.

If you're really looking to just get the kills throw Soul Assault on your bar if magicka build or find a high damage ultimate/skill and throw it out as the enemies get low on health.

The district should be pretty easy, just head into the sewers and ask for a group for the achievement (zone chat/text) or just look at the map and see if your faction is capturing anything you can go stand on the flag with them and it will count towards it.

Another tip would be try getting some siege weapons in Cyrodiil and fire it into crowds of people during fights (fire or coldfire for most damage) and hope you get some kills.

You could also take a look online for a quick entry level PvP build and get some gear crafted or skill set up for more damage.

Hope this helps a bit and hope you find a group which can help you.

Good tips there ^
IC captures are pretty easy, and you only need a PvE build if you are lucky.

Find a quiet server, take ur crew. Drop a comet on the flag guards and finish them off = capture. There's a good PvE questline down there too if you luck out on a quiet PvP time

Got lucky found random ppl capturing a district

Awesome!

Is it just the kills you're missing now? What build do you play Magicka or Stamina focused?

LastAyleidKing

I've done about 35 battlegrounds matches from afternoon too early ass morning.....
I still haven't got 1 win it's all I really need sigh I've used major expedition for trying to get to an capture relics and or flags but it's just not enough......i don't know why it's so hard I just want to scream all I want is the laurel they can keep every gear drop spam mail they've sent from every aspect of the PvP spectrum in this even I just want one win in battlegrounds....
I'm bleeding out cash on potions and repairs as a dunmer vampire dragonknight I fight ppl that won't lose hp or 2 shot me with uber spells......
I hate PvP I hate the crunching stats, builds and *** I'd rather pay for this laurel (not the 3 turd crowns they putting up for sale today) it's like if even when I have a good team we always get outplayed I hate it......

(Sorry for the raging it's just so stupid how I can play for hours and not get one win meanwhile see ppl I know get a win in first try) I'm running out of time thanks to all these battlegrounds bugs that only got fixed a couple days from end of the event I swear it's rigged

Turelus

Have you tried asking for a group in zone chat or any guilds?

Voice comms also helps a lot with being able to co-ordinate with your team. Being able to confirm who will defend and who will attack, where the damage buff spawns etc.

Sadly builds and number crunching are a part of being able to be competitive within battlegrounds, if you or your team are not able to get good heals/shields or put out damage then it's going to be hard dealing with other teams especially those who are very optimised for PvP.

I would offer to help but sadly we're not on the same format.

LastAyleidKing

Like I'm hitting the limits of what I can do with my build short of a complete skill or attribute reset and possibly

LastAyleidKing

*complete gear overhaul

Dubhliam

A build overhaul usually won't help.
What you need is for some guildie or friend to help you with your build.

What new players usually overlook are jewelry enchantments.
Those are really powerful, and if you don't have 3 spell damage glyphs, you are missing out on a LOT of potential damage.

Don't be afraid to ask for help in a guild, there are usually people willing to help.

As far as your situation is concerned, I think your best bet is to go to Cyrodiil, buy a bunch of Fire Ballistas and Firepots and start shooting at people sieging a keep.

I am getting aggravated, not with game thought, but with myself. I did get the BG win achiv. It took me few times to land a strong team that was able to win even though I was in it . But for life of me I can't get 50 kills. After 3 days and hours in Cyro and BGs all I have is 15. I feel like at this rate I might get lucky and get them before event is over but most likely not.
I did not even try yet to go to IC. This "pleasurable experience" will be saved for tonight.
And all the comments on the forums about L2P is not helping. I know I am not good at it and I know I'm not going to get any better. Telling me that I need to learn how to play is like telling blind to get glasses - it's not going to help.
Sorry for the rant.
@LastAyleidKing, good luck. Hope you will get it.

What's your class? If you have an execute just spam that. Don't go for wins, or anything but getting an Execute off.

If you don't have an Execute and are magicka slot some AoEs and Skoria, eventually it'll kill people.

In Cyrodiil use Ballistas and fire into crowds

Stamina has access to Executes.

BTW you cannot do as well in a PvE build/gear in PvP, same the other way around. For me, switching to PvE or PvP does require a complete gear and some skill change

Astarana

@Waffennacht, I'm Stamblade. I did change my gear and some skills. I'll try to get more kills with defending the keep and not attacking.

8 enemy star made knight but can they let the non knight team win nope

LastAyleidKing

Dying in 4 secs or less is real fun.....glad to know all this crit resist does something

coplannb16_ESO

got it on 2 chars now and will leave it at that (no time to play the next days anyway ). kills were easiest in BGs and with Oil in sieges.

The IC district worked thanks to other players helping (I can solo a district, but not defend it solo versus 2 enemy groups, flipping takes tooo damn long).

battleground was a pain on my 2nd char. always 2 PUGs versus 1 premade it seemed, but I eventually made it (was a CTF, I literally won this myself carrying the last flag to my side when it was a 400-400 score, full enemy group on me, thanks to fear and dodge roll + bow passive I made it with a sliver of life left).

LastAyleidKing

Idk it's just hard like to keep playing when you get annihilated in 1 or 2 hits

Turelus

How much health do you have and what defences are you using?

You're going to need some kind of shield or heal as well as knowing when to get in and out of fights if you want to brawl with people.

There are also build (such as nightblades) which have crazy bursty damage and even with good builds can be a PITA to fight with.

As others have said try finding some guilds and forming a group with experience players or doing something which can let you use voice comms more.

LastAyleidKing

Finally a good game of domination with a solid team at 3:30am in the morning....just player kills to go

LastAyleidKing

12 of 50 kills....i suck in battlegrounds can you murder friends if different faction in cyrodiil/imperial city for kills and vice-versus?

You can but it's a breach of Terms of Service (as per the events of the Bleakers AP farming) so if you're caught doing it you could be in trouble.

For Cyrodiil kills, fight from a keep wall, throw out high damage AoE ultimate skills or Soul Assault. Additionally look for enemies on low health and go for the kill steal.

Try using fire/coldfire balista on enemies during sieges if they don't have a healer/cleanse it's going to hurt a lot and potentially kill them. Oils are great as people enter keeps as well.

Try finding a LFG/PUG in Cyrodiil so you have more people to run with for heals etc.

LastAyleidKing

Ah yea and idk why it would have to be a terms of service for killing friends in another faction kill for kill I mean I mean whether it's all out or fighting each other in the buff it's like a duel idk.......meh all for a cosmetic lmao no bearing on actual gameplay.....and no getting teabagged after dying

LastAyleidKing

It's more annoying cause I have no more spare skillpoints atm to buy new moves lol I guess I better look up the morrowind skyshards I'm missing lol

X3ina

Just get oil and use it in any keep defense fight mate

By soul burst do you mean soul strike from soul magic line?
And since I melee dual wield would lacerate be a better PvP choice than the fire banner?

I think the issue is you're spreading your stats around and playing what's known as a Hybrid, which are sadly very weak in ESO.
Specialising in either Magicka or Stamina as a damage dealer or Health as a tank (won't get you kills though) will make your DK much stronger.

If you check my signature there is a link to AlcastHQ and he has a lot of great guides for builds. Dunmer make amazing magicka damage dragonknights because of all the fire damage you'll be throwing out.

Edit: To explain the attributes a bit better.

Damage for skills is boosted by your maximum stat in the attribute they use. So your magicka based skills will do more damage the bigger your magicka pool and vice versa for Stamina.

Take some time to read about some builds and watch some beginners videos (MissBizz link in my signature) and you'll probably have a lot more fun with the game as you'll be doing vastly more damage and have better survival skills.

LastAyleidKing

Yeah see idk what I wanna use ideally blending my dunmer vampire and dragonknight abilities to the right synergy......
But as more of a mental want I want to be able to make and use a full set akaviri medium and duel wield some soul shriven katanas...
As I've capped my smithing and clothing, my ardent flame, my one hand and shield, my duel wield, and restoration staff, medium and heavy armors,capped vampire and have loose points into some legerd/ thieves/assassins stats for sneaking stealing etc earning gold when not in a hard long questing kinda mood

LastAyleidKing

I weapon in my primary weapons and resto in my secondary sometimes I just need heals quick having to solo PvE all the time
