UlfricWinterfell

Hi fellows,

in my opinion DK got buffed this Patch.
If someone maybe have some struggle to handle stam DK. Here is my actual setup i use and i am really satisfied with.

Maybe you want try this out and give it a chance. Its a really basic build but also powerful as hell.

Its really hard to find some other sets that works better like fury or legion. I tested leeching plate and its really strong specially in outnumbered fights.

I dont found new sets that really worth it.
But in my opinion the most important thing with this patch is how you choose skills since there are some changes.

I killed a number of sdk on eu and some dont changed their skills after this update so i believe many ppl dont change anything on their builds but its really worth it to take a second look.

I miss the dot pressure on your build, which is one of the strong aspects of stamdks: claw is such a good dot and breaths initial damage was severely buffed. Also some sustain is hidden behind those poison abilities. Especially when using corrosive those skills are very strong.
Not sure why you rather slot uppercut instead of one of those, since you have a cc and spammable with reverb and heroic. But you do you;)

Yes u are right but in 1vX i like more burst dmg and dizzying swing is now a nice spamable. Problem with the dots is they need time to do dmg and u know it by urself in outnumbered situation u need high burst damage.

Dots are still great for long fights like in duels and i totally agree with you. But its easy for evryone to use other skills in their opinion.

I dont miss the sustain passive from combustion cause i already have 1.6 - 1.9k stamregen

I should make a fury / 7th / BS build. It’ll be revolutionary.

Noxious breath is quite bursty now and is aoe plus debuff
And with some more poison to proc the sustain passive you could go for more stats/damage

Yes i know i use dots when i fighting harder enemys or in 1v1... As i said when someone want to use it its good cause its strong too... The normal pug players die quick by using dizzying swing cause its still more bursty than evrything else stam dk got. I am really lucky with using it cause now its way more spamable.

But thy 4 your input

i never said its new and never exist before. i just show some optimations for elsweyr in my opinion.
like cauterize is now a great burst stam heal and also cheap. also dizzying swing is more accurate, easier to spam and make a nice burst dmg.

but yeah u gone right its an old setup but still one of the best
