    You can never go wrong with a dunmer dragon knight.
    #1 tip (Re)check your graphics settings periodically - especially resolution.

    Based on racials stats alone I would go with Dunmer (max mag/stam, fire resist, bonus fire dmg) -- especially for a dk and if you want to do both tank and dps. They have some pretty good passives and I have a friend who regularly switches from tank to dps (and performs well!) one his one main character. Nord racial passives are just kinda meh overall unfortunately.

    "Ideally", Dunmer for DPS, and Nord for Tanking (based off your two racial choices). However, unless you're going for world record stats on VMA or topping the leaderboards for trials, either will work just fine for either role. Dunmer does have better synergies with the Dragon Knight class skills, if you're looking for that.

    I main a Nord Stamina DPS DK and while it's not "best" for the class, it's still plenty solid.

    It's 3000 crowns, so roughly 25 dollars.

    I would start Dunmer, then if you're adamant you don't like it change to Nord. Dunmer has both magic and stamina passives, so they aren't pigeon holed into a role like Nord is. I have three dragonknights, for stam, magic, and tanking. Out of my three, my Dunmer magdk is by far my favorite. Such a satisfying class to play.
    I can't outheal stupid
