Mag Dk PvP Build Questions

Ohhgrizyyy · May 2017

Since PS4 servers are down now I have a couple questions regarding the build I'm going for cause there's still a couple pieces I need to farm and what goes where.

I'm going for a 5 heavy 1 light 1 med build with 5 BSW, 5 seducer and 2 blood spawn or once I get a good shoulder possibly 2 Skoria. I've been debating on a few things.

#1 For now and possibly even regarding the Morrowind patch with nerfs to sustain. Should I run sword/shield on both bars or have a resto backbar? I don't really want to farm Spellweave for even more time then I have to so would it be worth also just having 1 Spellweave body like waist, the 3 jewlelry and then running a sword or shield on both bars?

#2 Trait and glyph wise what should I go for? I personally was thinking Tri-stat glyphs on big pieces with infused including the shield and Impen small pieces but I've also seen alot of builds with sturdy pieces mixed in. So how important is blocking and is it really even worth running infused with tri stat glyphs?

About resto staff on back bar. If you are not running 5-7 light, there is no need for resto bar, imo. Better go for destro one.
About glyphs, seems reasonable to go 3 infused and 4 impen. I agree about 3 stat glyphs.

Since new meta will be heavy attack oriented, try out elegance set. With 40% bonus to heavy attacks you get from DK skill, and propper CP point allocation, you will be able to hit like a truck with HA.

On the shield on front bar should I go Impen or infused on the shield?

Just test it out yourself and see what works best for you man, finding out what works well for your class and your playstyle is where the fun is.

Well the reason I'm asking is cause I'd like not to have to farm bsw more then I have to lol. And reason I ask resto or not is cause I know DKs are kinda more or less losing their major mending next update and resto staff heavy attacks give major mending and well also can restore mag which I don't know if it will even hardly be needed to restore mag considering we have battleroar

I used infused on shield only when I was unable to find strudy or impen. Depends on numbers you would like to achieve, I go 4 piece impen and 30 more points in impen CP, but if 5-7 light armor I dont have any impen at all and go full bastion, with dampen magicka and healing ward on back bar. There are way better mDKs around, hope they do join this thread and help you with your dilema.

Well I'd be aiming for at least 2300-2400 crit resist but I almost always put at least 1k worth of crit resist into cp points

I would recommend using resto staff, battle roar is not enough in my experience, i played pts did new trial and BGs.
