Stamplar vs StamDK

Naughty_Ryder

Which class is superior in PvP when it comes down to survivability and damage?

Betsararie

Stamina Templar

Stamplar has waayy better damage (not even close), stam DK has only slightly higher survivability.

Stamplar is better than stam dk by a really wide margin.

In PvP right now it's:

1) Stam Warden
2) Stamplar
3) everything else

Honorable mention to mag sorc because it fills a niche that the other 2 above can't fill (ranged + better mobility), but its damage and tankiness are nowhere near the other two.

Oh right, sounds interesting! But which race(s) are good for the Stamplar?

A pet build mag sorc is the king of PvP to be sure


But as for stamina builds I'd say stamina DK has more survivabilty and bursty damage if they are consistently using Bloodspawn and DawnBreaker in their build.

Otherwise stamplar is stronger in every other scenario.

*edit* I'm currently only refering to the OP's
question of Stam DK vs Stamplar

I do think the strongest Stamina class at present in PvP ONLY, is between StamWarden and StamBlade in my Opinion. Closely followed by StamPlar, Stam DK and Stam Sorc.

I feel stam sorc is the weakest in open world PvP but performs very well in Small groups and in duels as one the best stam class. Stam Dk is an excellent duel stam class, if not the best, followed by StamBlade.

Redguard even after the racial nerf is still the best stam race for PvP, followed by Khajiit and Bosmer

Sweet, but how is stamblade so powerful? Surely their survivability is poor?

Stamblade's survivability is actual literal garbage (as in a used candy wrapper blowing in the wind of the side of the highway), unless they're running heavy. Stamblade in 5 (or 6) heavy is actually very strong right now.

Would only recommend heavy on stam builds until you've gotten really good at the game.

Stamblades in heavy with the insane amount
of burst damage they can do is currently one
the most powerful setups you can possibly do in the game in PvP. This is partly because Stamblades are now the only class in the game who can run Major evasion on heavy armor builds. Which is a huge advantage, even before CWC, but I digress. You use a stamblade in Heavy armor with Bloodspawn or Selenes, and you will wreck bodies left and right with the exception (as always) being Mag Pet sorcs, because they are just currently OP with the targeting systems advantage of having powerful pets that have all their Buffs and can be shielded and healed. And they do a lot of damage

I'm thinking DK, they got good defenses against gankers.
