Your best procfest?

Raudgrani

This is probably mainly for no CP PVP, where procsets can be a bit more useful, due to the obvious lack of exactly CP, and the smaller number of enemies.

What's your best recipe for killz and hate messages? Long while back I was running Red Mountain with Way of Fire and Skoria on a StamDK, it was mostly just fun but of course the procs (which seemed to keep "synergizing" without me doing anything) was a great help in bringing people down. I am currently making another silly procset carry build mainly for no-CP environment. Not sure it will work though.

I'm not really looking for "Venomous and Sload's" suggestions, as they are probably what most people would run. I tried like Vicecannon and Vemomous Serpent and such on a Nightblade a couple of years ago, but that was when they were still bringing you out of stealth, so it kind of beat the purpose - it was strong, but would have been better on a StamDK when cloak didn't really work anyway.

And no hate please, I've been playing "fair PVP builds" for years, and just want to try something different with some bells and whistles for a change.

Aurorans/groth. When it comes to hate tells, the only thing that matters is how large of a visual effect the proc set has. Damage doesn't really make a difference.

You got it exactly right. Big monsters spawning, things knocking you down, great explosions and all that nice stuff.

Yeah, I ran Auroran/Overwhelming/Grothdar on a Magplar, but that really was viable, barely visible - and thus no fun at all! No, seriously. It's good, but I switched to max stat sets instead and it's more trustworthy and consistent, but I still keep the sets.
I've tried Caluurion/Icy Conjuror and Kjalnar out on a magblade during Midyear Mayhem this year; hard to make it all proc at the same time, but just a couple of them does it tbf. I just did it until I got to tier 3, and moved on to next character. It was a bit fun.

Smaller number of enemies?
On pc EU ravenwatch gets poplocked faster than gray host.
Anyway, for Stam venomous smite plus whatever really, you can even pair it with new moon and still have your skills do good dmg.

Maelstrom 2H axe, Venomous, Azureblight, double dot poisons, and stampede.

Pillar of nirn, sheer venom, double dots, sellistrix and poison injection.

Stam sorc unless they put a 3s cool down on Streak, in which case Stamcro.

Well, as far as I know you have 12 players in Battlegrounds, and 8 of tose are enemies. That's what I meant. I don't do no-CP Cyrodiil, other than perhaps for PVE.

Ohh! I have a Azure-set on my more or less retired bow/bow StamDK, the 5 piece description LOOKS awesome, but I'm yet to try that one out too. :-)

Another of those sets I've never tried, but reading about it now - it sounds as if it could be fun. I know this Aegiscaller set has an enorous visual effect, I am tempted... LOL

I heard Aegis worked well with PVE werewolf builds, and I checked some Youtube video on it - and was like "Ehm, maybe not...". ;-)

Or Tremorscale? ;-) I have been wanting to make this build for quite a while, but never really started collecting pieces for it. I was never really impressed by Maelstrom in PVP, since the VMA weapons had their change like 2018 or whenever it was.

Probably contributes to the hate venomous smite gets. Large aoe with an awful sound effect.

Sergeant better than sunder for dmg since sergeant still buffs both parts of dw heavies.
But for mag sustain sunder is defo better, although ashen grip would be a great option too.

How would Sunderflame affect magicka sustain? Not means as a snarky comment, but genuinely curious. Is it due to the passive that gets you some mag back when people get burning status?

I want to kind of make a build like this for my StamDK. It's a DOT build now (Deadly/Fury and Balorg or Malacath's Band), which works pretty well, but I grow tired of PVP builds quite fast - and wanted a heavy attack DK one for quite a while.

Sergeant's looks nasty af, don't remember it being that strong, has it changed? Doylemish is a given one, but now Sergeant's mail and Sunderflame both looks pretty fine. I would like to see Tremorscale on that too, it rhymes pretty well with the other sets, but the most obvious matches are not always best, of course.

New sunderflqme is very bad, it provides 13800 dot over 10 secs instead of X amount of burst damage. Sergent is definetly better next patch.

I'm yet to try. My tooltip of Sunderflame buffed is 19088, but I recon I get the resistance debuff too, and also some magicka sustain for more fossilize. And that's without Malacath band, using that changes everything but in terms of sheer damage it's probably better. I will simply try a few different setups, I still need some Doylemish pieces.

It looks pretty strong. Wonder if it's buffed by Deadly? Think I've heard it's been working with some DOT sets but not sure. Getting 28802 tooltip on my Necro in build editor, just in that Unleashed set, then you have the VMA DOT; the one from Stampede, and possibly some poison and bleed DOT as well.

Why use deadly? It buffs dots 20%, but you can use a second proc set and effectively have a 100% damage increase.

Of course, but I was thinking a bit outside the "proc meta" for a moment. The reason why I started this thread, was to get suggestions for funny proc builds, not the usual effective meta kind of builds.
I run a DK with Deadly already, and it literally melts people away (with numerous DOT's) - I think many or most who die (first time) doesn't have any idea how bad their situation is, because many keep being offensive while they really should be looking for a chance to survive. ;-)

I like deadly myself, but I think it is more efficient to do two BIG dot procs. Also been looking at the set that buffs consuming trap plus Pillar of Nirn or Affliction. Either way, my bank and all my spare toons are full of sets I've been accumulating for today.

Scav is garbage. It's only of the easier sets to dodge.

Yeah it's probably the best practice. I run S&B/2H (axe), with doublt DOT poison on frontbar. Don't know exactly what DOT are the most effective ones, but I basically use Claw, DK Poison Puke, and Carve (+ Volatile Armor as a freebie), then you have a chance for D-DOT poison, and axe passive bleed too. What I really do is just apply these when possible, and CC with Reverb Bash, Fossilize or the Stone Turd and Dizzy Swing + execute with leap or executioner. The procedure might come out as quite "ordinary", so I think quite a few doesn't realize the DOT's are stacking up.

So far tried:
Sheer venom: with poison injection I've been getting a lot of kills with this set in bgs, a fair amount of undodgeable execute damage, not bad, although outside of execute range its very weak.
Unleashed: after the nerf it just feels weak, does about the same dmg as vma 2h, and if you want to use the set with it you have double bar it which is kind of a waste, the easy application of the set is the one good thing about it.
Oblivions foe: as expected this makes soul assault kinda stupid, was getting 6-8k soul assault ticks on my Templar with this.
Stone husk: same dmg as unleashed, it's pretty hard to keep the beam on multiple targets unless you fight a very stacked group, the 12m range is very generous on it tough so I'll have to play around with it some more.
Caluurions: Already knew this from pts, but it's very strong, it fires much faster now and deals more dmg.
Crimson: excellent backbar set for stacked groupfights, the heal is very noticeable when hitting multiple targets.
Plague slinger: while it's dodge able, in hectic fight people often won't and hits for a good amount of dmg, and it's 5 seconds of high pressure.
Way of fire: excellent pressure set, since it's not a dot it can't be cleansed, will play around with it more on stamDK for sure.
That's it so far, will try to post my thoughts on other procs, but a lot of the non proc sets also look hella nice.

I'm liking morkuldin+velidreth combo on stamplar bg build.
Good mix of pressure and burst procciness.
My stamcro does blackrose bow, vma 2h, unleashed terror. With double dot poisons on both bars, I haven't seen anyone survive the 7k+ dot pressure with major defile yet, although I try to avoid fighting tanks with that build.
My magplar just runs good Ole calurion, doesn't really need anything else with that tbh.
