Magicka DK PVP Traits

What's the meta for a Magicka DK with Heavy armor and one hand and shield? I put all impen except one piece with Sturdy. The shields with Fortified Nirncrux and the swords have Potent Nirncrux. It works pretty well but i think i need like more sturdy maybe.

Now i see that somepeople say big pieces with Reinforced or Infused. Shields with reinforced or Fortified Nirncrux and swords with Potent Nirncrux or infused... is not very clear for me...

I would really appreciate if someone can explain me a little bit better how to do it well.

Thanks!

    All impen with a sturdy shield is probably your best bet.

    Personal preference is also a thing, for instance I personally like to run infused triglyphs on my big pieces and then impen on the rest.

    Thank you very much for your answer. It seems that i'm not so wrong then. The only thing i dont share are the infused traits. The problem is that at legendary gives a 20% more of each value and that is 434 - 477 - 434 + 20% = 434+87 - 477+95 - 434+87.

    In my opinion a 20% more of something that I have already plenty doesn't seems a big change. Yesterday i did some pvp in Ciro and duels and i realize that even with my shield up, the incoming damage feels like i should mitigate a little bit more. Stamina seems to be very enough. But the block damage hast tp be more. That's how i feel it...

    Full Infused, Nirn Shield and Nirn Weapon. Be plenty tanky with huge resource pool whilst being more powerful. I find just going to flat max stats is the way forward.

    Guess it depends if you want to kill more and die a little more frequently or be more tanky and kill less frequently, running all impen and sturdy in HA won't kill much at all ime.

    I run a 5l/1m/1h build with infused on head, chest, legs and impen on all the secondary pieces. I don’t use any sturdy pieces because I try to use intelligent blocking. Granted- it’s harder... but if you use spell damage glyphs, you get more consistent heals.
    Want to enjoy the game more? Try both PvP (crybabies) and PvE (carebears). You'll get a better perspective on everyone's opinion.

    Infused on small pieces barely makes a difference, since the enchant value is only 40%. Sturdy, impenetrable and even divines is better there since that keeps its full value. For tanky builds I'd say Infused on big ones, sturdy on small ones, with tri-glyphs on the former or even both and tri-stat food, to be able to hit 15K stamina and 20K(25K) health.
