Today I went in a deathmatch, and it seems both team had like 2 healers, we had one healer. I am a stam DK DOT build and lack explosive damage potential.
Match went on for full 15 minutes, with no team managing 500 points, we ended second.
I actually did 2 million damage and had only 1 kill to show, must be highest damage to kill ratio ever, not kind of record somebody wants to make at least willingly, I was trying to get kills.
One of the healer from other team had 1.4 million heals, all healers had 600k plus healing.

✭✭✭✭✭StamDK lacks the burst needed to kill anyone on a BG team with dedicated heals. It sounds like all 12 people in your round were built around defense, support, or dots and nobody had high burst damage. It happens sometimes.Battle not with monsters, lest ye become a monster, and if you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you. ~Friedrich Nietzsche3 -

This.
Anyone can do dmg, what takes skill is getting kills.

✭✭✭✭✭PvP has become super unfun because of the heavy armor / defense meta plus everyone is capable of crazy self healing. Especially for classes without burst and executes it's a major pita.PS5EUAldmeri Dominion- Khajiit Arcanist -0 -
Skysenzz✭✭✭Well if you only have dots as damage obviously you're gonna struggle with killing targets in these kind of matches.
I personally have two builds, one with really lots of dots DSA Axes, rending, claw, breath and carve. It deal a lot of damages, but kinda lack burst on executing kills, magsorcs or nightblade usually steal them fairly easily, even if I run executionner.
So what I personnaly do if have difficulty with that build, (there is too much healings/magsorc, though today my biggest issue is magsorc, between 4 to 7 in every games Xd) I swap to 2h + snb build, with much better direct burst, with fiery being my only dot.kills are much more secured with exec + swap + bash on SnB than dot build. I will end with 1mil damage instead of 1.5, but there's some situation on DK where you CAN'T run dot build, you will get all your kills stolen. The survivability is overall the same since i run with medium set anyway.
If you want good execute damage on DK, Corrosive armor + executionner can hit really hard. best hit i had was about 10k.

✭✭✭✭✭must be highest damage to kill ratio ever
I probably have you beat.
During the last PvP event i took my fully PvE geared Pet MagSorc to Cyrodiil.
She's setup for solo PvE group dungeons and everything is optimized for AoE.
Didn't respec, didn't change the skills on my bars, didn't change gear.
I got a few kills during keep defense but without any single target skills the whole thing was rather hilarious.
I even had a long drawn out 1x1 with a guy who finally managed to get me to run out of magicka after 15 minutes of running around me in circles (i got 30k health and 15k shields and a 10k burst heal).
I'm sure my AoE during keep defenses added up to many, many millions of damage but i don't think i got more than 10 kills during the whole event.

✭✭✭✭✭Kinda goes to show damage is really unreliable for assessing performance.
It also tells me that your poor DK didn't have any single target damage buddies to take advantage of the pressure you're applying.
(Example is if I say dropped a colossus on an opponent you're focusing, they most certainly should go down - healer or no healer)
May I ask what your gear is? I'm curious to see what others are using in BGs0 -
DocDova✭✭✭Ok posted screenshot. I like BGs and have no problem with its current state, it's good. It's one time rare event when both team had 2 dedicated healers and rest also had some healing abilities slotted.
It was funny because when I get highest damage I have ever don (2 million, previously it was 1.7 million couple of times), I just get one kill.
I am not that bad in getting kills either, probably over dozen times I had both kills and assist in mid twenties.0 -

Sorry missed this post, my build is very silly, no sensible player would run it. I do PvP mostly to chill with frens. Just dont laughs
I use 5 piece deadly strikes (bow and jewelry)
2 piece S&B of death's wind on back bar. (for no good reason, too lazy to change)
5 piece Dreugh king slayer armor (don't laugh)
2 different monster pieces, one is lord warden, second is pirate skeleton.
All points in stamina, running tri state food. Don't remember, which mundus I have.0
