Couple of suggestions for Dragonknights

UltimaJoe777 · July 2016

How about changing Molten Whip into a Poison Whip to make it a Stamina morph, yet leave the rest of the skill alone?
Also why not change Fragmented Shield into a Stamina morph and make the Magic Damage it inflicts Physical Damage but beyond that leave it as is?

Just a couple of thoughts I had.

Why does everyone want the whip? It's nothing compared to a good mace in your hands.

Igneous Shield is the only way to go. Major Mending is the class's most important buff. We do not want
to lose this. Stacked with Vitality potions, DKs can heal themselves 55% more than others.

Shields are for weak milk-drinkers anyway. We don't need them.

Now a Stam Morph to Reflective Scale or Talons... that is my Sovngarde.

The idea of a Poison Whip sounds amazing, though I think Wrobel basically said a stam whip will "never happen". They should though because Molten Whip isn't very good imo. Flame Lash is better for magicka users, so any way to rework the other morph would be good.

Before he converted some flame abilities into poison that was logical, but now there is no reason to make a Stamina morph of the whip. He kind of dug his own grave there lol

Gee, I dunno, maybe because it's a WHIP?

I doubt we will get any stamina whip.... Both morphs of whip are heavily used by magDK's depending on whether they are PvP or PvE.... StamDK DPS is top tier and PvP aspect is really strong too atm... Doubt we will get any extra's from ZOS.

molten whip is used by pve mDK dps. They dont take flame lash, every single one of them takes molten.

Stam DK doesnt need more stuff, they are already top tier in pvp and pve

Doesn't really matter to me which whip gets the stamina morph to be honest, just throwing it out there since some ardent flame abilities went toxic that this could have a morph do it too.

How about we just work on getting dragon blood destroyed so both MDKs and SDKs can get an actually useful skill added in
its place. Maybe a skill that prevents the target from purging for 10 seconds, and grants an actually useful buff like Major/
Minor Berserk? They could do it in whip form I bet...

Leave my molten whip alone!

malchior · July 2016

Please no. MDKs have already suffered numerous nerfs, we do not want to lose another skill to stam builds.

OrphanHelgen · July 2016

Stam dks are actually not good, but maelstrom weapons and standard of might, saves them.
Thinking about pve here.

They dont have any stats that boost them. No execute. No burst dmg. No aoe. No self heal. They are the class with least stamina cost abilities.

Frag shield does need a use again. Oh, the great times and massive dps of it shattering on 6 players and hitting 6 targets each :'( the problem with making it stamina and leaving it alone otherwise is that it would still be useless. And even if it were a good skill, it's hard to imagine stamina builds having a good damage shield and not being super OP.

STA DK is the Top dog in PvE and PvP DPS. It doesn't need anything else.

GreenhaloX · July 2016

I'm not in favor of the whip at all. It doesn't give out much damage compared to the other offensive skills or strikes from 2H, even if morphed into stam. Currently, it being majicka, definitely no room on my skill slots. The igneous shield, flame of oblivion and coagulating blood are already using up lots of majicka, which is the lesser of my attributes.

I guess I can see that if you have stam up in the 30k or higher and able to repeatedly bash out wrecking blows after another or if you're good at animation cancelling.. that wrecking blow becomes way more devastating.
