DK Questions

Liofa · January 2015

Hey everyone . I am kinda new to the game . I've read so much on forums and watched so many videos about DKs and really disappointed with the OP destruction staff DK thing . I am currently tanking so it's not a problem but i will be doing PVP soon and I wanna smash peoples face with a huge mace , not a stick ( not even mentioning light armour ) . So my question is : Is it gonna change ?

Any ideas will help . Thanks in advance !

With ultimate changes in 1.6 the DK Vamp impulser is going to become much less viable. Any class can be viable with practically any weapon if you build right and 2 hand DK like you are suggesting is not an exception

Just recently, I've seen a thread in th PvP forum with a stamina based DK build. According to the responses, it seems to do quite well. And as Chesimac said, 1.6 will bring changes to ultimate generation and aoe caps. I assume that this will have an impact on the variety of builds in PvP.

Apart from that, just play around with your skills. Find the selection that you're most happy with (for whatever reason). Enjoy!

I would think that as a stamina-based DK, your main bar would be mainly weapon abilities, along with Green Dragon Blood (morph of Dragon Blood). Might as well use Standard as your Ultimate since there are no weapon Ultimates yet. Green Dragon Blood gives you a self heal when you need it, and 30% extra Stamina regen when you want.

On your second bar, you could use some of the buffs from the Earthen Heart line, but you could probably focus mainly on the one skill bar and be fine for most of the game.

I know people who've been using stamina DKs in PVP with 2H build and breaking skulls with them since day 1. Dunno how they perform in 1V1 but at least in group fights it feels pretty strong.

Anyways, it's all gonna change in 1.6.
