DK race for Emp?

I have a stam DK Khajiit that I have prepared for an attempt at Emperorship but I'm wondering if I should change her to Imperial... this will be pre-Morrowind.
Advice please?

thanks. :)

    Race isn't going to help you get Emperor.

    Except, maybe Breton... but not really.

    Lol, I know race isn't going to help me get Emp. My question is more about fighting (sorry if it's a bit vague) - as someone who's not participated in all that much PVP (and not much at all on any other character than a healer), is it better to have higher crit (Khajiit) or a better resource pool (Imperial)?

    Crit damage is largely mitigated by players wearing impenetrable armor. I think overall resources and sustain will serve you better in PVP.

    It seems like you are going as a stam DK .. you are better off race changing to a dark elf and going for it as a mag DK. Just Zerg surf with AOE heals and AOE dps. You'll get lots of AP if you keep up the AP buff.

    When I got Emperor, I had spent 36 hours in three days earning 50k AP an hour. That is what it takes, and no race is going to help you with that. No passives are going to help you get Emperor, no amount of skill will allow you to get Emperor, no particular playstyle will get you Emperor. What will get you Emperor is staying online grabbing every little bit of AP you possibly can for longer than anyone else is willing to.

    I think you are underestimating what it takes to get Emperor, tbh. If you were ready, this wouldn't be what you'd be concerned with. But you're about to find out. Good luck.

    Thanks. I did actually try it, a few months ago, but I couldn't keep up with the guy in second place - doesn't help that I'm 9-10 hours' time difference; when I had to go to sleep, he pulled way ahead. During my daytime, when there was barely any activity, there was of course no way to get AP other than doing the daily quests, since everything had already been repaired.

    So... yeah, I've got a good idea of what I'm in for. I have a ton of AP saved up for repair kits but I know I need to do some fighting as well, hence the race question. As Kartalin said, crit damage will be mitigated by Impen, so Imperial would be a better choice - and that's what I'm going to go with. (Not magDK... not after what I spent on heavy armour sets.)

    I've had some success in the past with emp pushes in aussie time zone. The campaign resets recently often happen around 10PM in america which is only 12pm for me. So everyone on the leaderboard either goes to bed before me on the first day or goes without sleep and dies at their keyboard lol.

    I could be wrong but I'm fairly certain on PS4 EU the campaigns start around 8pm (that was before end of Daylight Savings, anyway). Going to check tonight.
