Builds

Tankin Solo

on the sword and board side you have multiple ways to heal, lots of extra armor, Deep slash for dmg reduction, hate and snare.

Now for the Farmer in me i have an AoE setup with a greatsword on the second slot, focusing on pumping my personal DPS to the max, and felling my enemies in great numbers. not to mention a bit of stunning and healing thrown in.

DarkNight Resto/Destruction

DonVlad Future Build - I am not playing but this is probably what I am going to use as skills
1st try out - so is not perfect and not final yet.
Leave comments - if you like or dislike.
Thanks

DK Tank

Bar 1 would be the main combat bar. Can swap out obsidian shard and shielded charge for non-stunable mobs.

Bar 2 swap to for buffs. Cast buff, swap back to bar 1.

Dragon Knight Group Tank

This Build is to maximize the effectiveness of the tank role in Dungeon/Raid groups. It focuses on damage mitigation and aggro holding. This build is a work in progress but I find it very effective at the moment.

Tanky + Single/AoE damage

I was thinking of a way to combine survivability with decent damage. Two handed weapon - good AoE damage.. 5 pieces of Heavy armor and 2 pieces of light armor will grant good protection and increased magica recovery. In addition, chosing a High elf boosts magica, so that you always have enough of it. Hope to hear what you think.

OP DPS/Tank

If you don't know how this works, I'm not going to tell you. But I will tell you the key to this build has something to do with quick Shield Bash and auto attack combo. The other skills are there for support reasons and DoT.<br/><br/>All passives geared toward Armor, weapon damage, regen, Fire damage.<br/><br/>Shield and Axe/Mace with all Heavy Armor.

Imperial DPS Dragonknight

This build is largely based on the "High DPS, Two-handed DK w/ self healing abilities AND an AoE, Destruction Staff Dk with astonishing mob grinding abilities" build, by Proximences. I've modified it for an Imperial character, added a few abilities from the Fighters and Mages Guilds, increased the points in passives from 2-to-3 where possible, and added three full crafting disciplines (if you're so inclined). This build doesn't include the two points spent on Spiked Armor and Fiery Grip, (which are necessary to open up the Draconic Power and Ardent Flame lines, respectively) as these are to be phased out at the earliest possible convenience. Also note that this calculator charges a few points for skills that the character begins with, so the true count is slightly less.

The crafting skills are simply a recommendation for where to put any extra points, and are completely optional. Of the three crafting disciplines included here. Were I to rank them in order of priority, it would be (in descending order); Clothing, Blacksmithing, then Woodworking.

(Additional Suggestions)

Mana/Health/Stamina Ratio: 0/1/2

Equip: 5 Medium/2 Light (Cloth belt and gloves, with everything else medium gives the highest armor rating. My personal preference is for cloth hood and belt for aesthetic reasons)

Recommended ability rotations (Pick whichever you prefer, or make your own):
Two-Handed Cycle 1: Stampede ? Flame Lash ? Wrecking Blow ? Stampede ?Flame
Lash
Two-handed Cycle 2: Stampede ? Flame Lash ? Wrecking Blow ? Reverse Slice

Destruction Staff Cycle 1: Elemental Blockade ? Burning Talons ? Engulfing Flames ? Draw Essence
Destruction Staff Cycle 2: Elemental Blockade ? Burning Talons ? Engulfing Flames ? Sea of Flames

A special thanks to Proximences for the amazing build from which this one was born.
Enjoy!

DK Tank/DPS

Theorycrafting, haven't yet used to see if this was viable.

Currently V1 and I've been jumping skill lines a bit to find something along the lines of what this is. A mix of a tanky/dps DK. The shield/board line I'm already always using, dropping Cinder Storm for Burning Talons. Second line I'm currently miss-matched to get things leveled as I started out using 2-Handers and didn't feel it going for me.

Second line will primarily be DPS with duel-wield.

Currently I run 5/2 heavy/medium. Might try out 5/2 medium/light or vice versa and put on a spike armor morph on the first bar.

I usually open up with Shielded Assault then Flame Lash w/ its follow up. Heavy attack for knockdown. Switch bars and blood craze. For multiples it's basically the same except after the Shielded Assault in I would use some sort of CC (Burning Talons or Cinder Storm) and use Flash Lash and it's follow up when I can. I frequently back up away from someone and Shield Assault in just so I can use Flame Lash and it's follow up.

For raiding/group dungeons I would switch out depending on the situation. Drop the Flame Lash for Unstable Flame for bosses and possibly drop the Shielded Assault for some group buff (Molten Armaments/Ring of Preservation). On the second line I might switch out one of the AOE's on boss fights for Inner Rage for an extra taunt.

Devastation DPS Dunmer DK - Fire Mage AOE

This is what I use to pull around 25-29k dps in group dungeons with lots of adds. When I solo single target I use a completely different setup. This is purely for many mobs at a time, all AOE DPS.
