I haven't played eso in a long time and someone bought it on console for me and I was wondering what class/race combos are good on console? Last time I played stamina dk imperial was the top dog but that was on PC
May the Schwartz be with you.

    there is no difference of power on console or pc. pc just has any communication and the availablity to have addon were you can actually see your buffs/debuffs and damage

    I thought they were a patch behind and I haven't played since before imperial city dlc so I don't even know the PC patches.
    So far console version is hard for me to enjoy without the chat box and addons ):

    Yeah, in PvE, it's definitely MageBlade and Magicka Sorc.

    For MageBlade either Dunmer or Altmer. For Magicka Sorc, Altmer.

    I would say Imperial is significantly better for stam DK then any other race. Why do you value dark elf and khajiit?

    Dunmer gets max stamina and increase to fire damage (combined with maelstrom bow and dk dots is most likely the strongest pick)
    Khajiit gets extra critical chance
    Imperial would be my last choice, all it offers is max stamina and max health

    Yeah but for Dunmer you only get 6% stam compared to 10% stam. Also, your going to need some health, so the 10% extra allows you to put points in other things. That seems pretty huge unless you value the 9% magika (I dunno why you would)

    The 4% max stamina difference between the two makes Dunmer come out stronger because of the increased fire damage which is 7%, if you mix that with the maelstrom bow and your dk dots it's going to be incredibly strong. So yes the Dunmer passives come out stronger than Imperial, there really is no question about that

    Health in my opinion isn't going to matter much, as long as you're over 20,000 which you will be. So it's up to the player what they prefer, I would personally say Dunmer would give you the most damage by a lot

    oh and the max magicka allows you to switch to caster which is also the best class for a caster dragonknight

    In terms of damage I think Bosmer wouldn't be that good of a choice, Khajiit gives enough stamina recovery and crit chance so I suppose that would be the better option. I don't believe Bosmer offers any damage amps
