NB or DK?

Trying to determine which to make. Made a dk and leveled to like 20 something and didn't care for tanking. I preferred tanking in other games to to multi add pulls and better (more) options to hold aggro and taunt. Tanking feels and plays to me at least, like it's still in the beta stage. Anywho, which power and playstyle between NB and DK makes for a more 'beast' dps power? And would stam or magic be preferred? I ask because I have one of every power that stuck to max level except these two. Maybe it's me, maybe it's not, but I delete them put pf boredom and never quite finish. Never had this problem with the other sets but refuse to have two toons of the same power. Seems like a waste to me me. Any and all advice or input appreciated.

    Dk stam. As you can see on eso leaderboard ALL #1 group have at least 5/6 DK.

    Ugh. He's level 20. He isn't going to be doing Timed vet trial runs anytime soon

    Stamina based nightblades do significantly more damage than DKs in about 99% of situation. The 1% of situations where a DK does more damage includes end game contents and requires a full team of 12 people constantly applying buffs and rebuffs for the DK... not the best way to measure actual DPS for regular players.

    In PvP it's not even close. Stamina nightblades do significantly more damage.

    Imo nightblades are funnier and more entertaining to play.

    Cool, I was thinking Stamina NB. The short time I played it felt fun. I won't bother trying to tank. Like mentioned in my op, tanking in ESO feels just....off. Unfinished if you will.
