So ive been looking around at builds for magicka dragon knight.
They all look dreadfully painful to play. 5 DOT's to keep up? eww

    Not so hard when you treat erruption/trap/FoO as one dot, embers/engulfing as one, and blockade as the third. For a real simple rotation though, stamdk could work out for you. Magsorc can be quite easy as well, depending on how you go about it.

    My main is a magDK so I guess I've gotten used to it, sustain can be an issue though. Blockade, Eruption, Flames of Oblivion, Engulfing Flames, Burning Embers...
    So when I play on my MagSorc alt it feels weird not having as much to keep track of.

    the rotation isnt as bad as it seems.

    front fire staff: flame lash, blockade, engulfing flames, inner light, burning embers. ult: meteor
    back lightning staff: harness magicka, rearming trap, eruption, crushing shock, flames of oblivion. ult: standard of might

    engulfing>embers>blockade>swap>eruption> trap> FoO>swap>2xwhips>engulfing> embers>blockade>5xwhips>repeat

    Well, if you're not looking for the most optimized rotation out there...
    • 1 - Burning Embers
    • 2 - Engulfing flames
    • 3 - Elemental blockade
    • 4 - Whip
    • 5 - Inner light
    • R - {Meteor}
    • 1 - Eruption
    • 2 - Flames of Oblivion
    • 3 - Rearming Trap
    • 4 - (flex - usually shield, chains, Molten armaments with a shock staff, Deep breath, Elemental drain...)
    • 5 - Inner light
    • R - {Standard of might / destro ult}

    You start on backbar: 123 (swap) 123, 4 until Burning embers runs out, 123, 4 until Eruption runs out (swap) and repeat.

    Magicka DK has a pretty easy rotation in my opinion, your backbar DOTs last very long and durations line up pretty nicely. The only thing that can be hard to learn is how many whips you do in-between refreshing DOTs, but just track you DOTS and refresh them when they run out until you got that down.
