    My favorite battle was at Nikel last night. There was some very intense battles there. The amount of defensive siege was impressive and I am proud to say that we held through. The Defense Tick was -62,481 AP. Great fight, great fun, excellent job to the defenders.

    I can confirm 6 ice trebs being ran by one person, no down time. I saw you do it. Well done.

    I'm not sure it is appropriate or fitting to state that in the current state of the thread.

    However, I don't think you a jerk, I strongly believe that you don't have the context and also the understanding behind a lot of different posts. As is the case with most arguments or fights that break out.

    I would think it would be fitting to say that I am a jerk though. There have been some rude things said by me, even today.

    Nobody is perfect though. Everyone is a jerk at some point in time.

    And my current Dk is a wanna-be healer/utility machine. Having a really hard time with that, her healz arent that fantastic and since shes build more for healz and group play, her damage isn't great either. Tryin to stick with it but damn there are times I wanna shelf her lol!

    I currently run 2 heavy and 5 light. Balancing resources can be tough but I have managed to achieve 30k magicka, 2.3k Recovery, 25k health and 3k spell damage. I'm sorta squishy but as long as I'm not fighting more than 3 people it does pretty good.

    Edit: As long as I'm not fighting more than 3 average people. I can't fight 3 good players.

    Which is why this stuff shouldn't be dealt with on the forums. Most of us don't have the context or understanding bc it didn't start here. There are 2 sides to every story and we here in this thread don't have and don't need the whole story.

    What we DO need is more talk of ice trebs and builds and how effing awesome some of those fights were yesterday. Enough with the he said she said stuff and moar with the you runnin 6 ice trebs no down time confirmed! :smile:

    I'm only assuming you are discussing the Nikel Defense from last night.

    I think we should discuss the show that was at Nikel Outpost after that defense.

    I am quite sure I have never seen so many Ice trebs in one area. Im guessing you set down at least 25-30 lmao. It was a sight to see to be sure. Thanks for the show. hah

    Honestly, I didnt think you could run 6 at a time with no down time. You proved us all wrong and at least I can admit it. If me confirming that you did it is not good enough, then we arent the community I thought we were.

    I went and spent around 62k AP on all the trebs and then quickly ran out and just started popping em' out and had LoDG members running them. The reaction from zone chat was by far the best part of the entire situation.


    EDIT: There was nothing better to do than throw a party at Nikel, so we did. An Ice Treb Party!

    I'll be trying out a light armor magDK. We will need to have a magDK-off. Though, I've always played heavy armor magDK personally.

    Edit: As long as I'm not fighting more than 3 average people. I can't fight 3 good players.

    Mind me asking what you're running for your build? My current (and only) Mag DK uses 2 heavy/5 light and is sitting at like, 31k Magicka, 23k Health, 2k regen, and 2.3k spell damage (closer to 2.7k on flame damage thanks to Silks of the Sun), although he has outleveled his gear enough to only be at 3 stars now. Even with fresh, new gear I don't think his stats were quite as high as yours though.

    I will say light armor Mag DK is really fun to play, although definitely more difficult than other builds I've ran in the past. Like you, I do well enough fighting 2-3 average players, but as soon as a good player comes along, or more people start piling on me, it becomes a game of how irritating can I be with Mist Form and LOS before they actually kill me. I actually had a group of 5-6 EP completely give up on trying to kill me around the little rocks just northeast of Alessia Bridge, despite the fact that I spent the majority of the fight at less than 20% health. I can guarentee they would've killed me had they kept at it just a little bit longer.

    I run 5 Kags, 3 or 4 magnus (depends on what bar I'm on) and 3 Willpower. Flame staff and S&B. My staff is always gold the rest is purple. You can play with enchants but typically I run 1 health enchant on heavy chest and the rest mag. On my jewelry 1 use 1 reduced cost, 1 mag regen, and 1 spell damage.

    Do you just rely on Burning Embers for self-healing? I run S&B/Resto, and would love to be able to use a flame staff, but I fear that my build will die far too easily without Healing Ward.

    Also, I notice that a lot of good players are running Willpower on their Magicka builds, which I have never owned a single piece of. Anybody know what the easiest way to get Willpower jewelry is right now?

    I rely on embers and whip for heals. I also use either immovable pots or tri-pots. But most heals would come from group. This build excels in a group of 4-6 and does pretty good in large groups. Keep in mind this is very difficult to play solo with. I get willpower from guild stores.

    It may help if I add: These max Stats are with Witch mothers brew up. Sorry for not saying that at the beginning.

    I do an awful lot of shopping, partly for myself partly for others and if I happen to see a piece, no matter what level, I buy em up. Though its not much fun going to every single guild trader in all of Tamriel, gah so much time spent. Idk how everyone else is doin it, I just buy em when I see em.
