Dots / bleed build in Bgs

Is that viable or not? Because doing an overall balance the most typical builds are those who try to delete any player in the first few seconds and if not then run away or die.

I would like to try something new and I was thinking in some kind of DK with dual wield/ two-hand build. The only inconvenience is that I don't run any trial that's why I don't have any master weapons.

But as I said for me is very important to don't invest wrong my time in something that is gonna be a tremendous fail. That's why I thought it would help me to decide if I hear different opinions direct from you guys.

    It's hard to find posts on mobile version. When I have a bit of time at home I'll see if I can send you a few

    I don't know why everyone whines as dot damage is so low - less than 500 per tick that can be easily healed

    i think the reason is you never have 1 person on you nor 2 its norm all 4 - 8 in bg's and up to 50 in overland pvp, yes 1 person is easy to handle but that never is the case

    Now Add master axes + poison + blood craze on top of that.

    Oh i almost forgot, Add Sloads + Zaan aswell.

    If you can outheal that i want you as healer for next hm trial :) (purge doesn't count since its class specific)

    I mean my fetcher flies can tick for 800-900 in bgs. Plus you use multiple abilities not just one dot.

    It procs from every damage.


    And its not uncommon to have blood craze in death recap with 3 ticks dealing 7k damage.....

    Its decent, depends on the build and class. It procs from all dmg. The problem is not DOTs in general, its the stacking of them combined with high pressure sets like Zaan.

    Well if you are attacked by a potato then 500 bleed tick seems legit, but any exp player will deal 1-2k DMG per tick, it's not that uncommon. Bleeds biggest strength is that there are very limited counter play options (heals, shields, cleanse).

I'm sick and tired of hearing about Cadwell Silver&Gold as a "you think you do but you don't"-tier deflection to any criticism regarding the lack of overland difficulty in the game." - @AlexanderDeLarge

    Stam dk dot/ bleed are the strongest 1v1 at the moment. They do ok in group content as well.
