I'll tell you how to beat everyone and everything in the entire game with little effort.
This is a tribute to a class more powerful than all 3 other classes combined.

7 Light Armor
Warock Robe, Warlock Helm, Warlock Ring
Twilight's Embrace on any other pieces.
Magicka cost reduction Ring, Magicka cost reduction Necklace

(Optional): Run Vampire for Magicka and Stamina regen with decreased damage taken at lower HP.
Roll Breton or High Elf or Dark Elf

Sword/Shield. 40-49 into health. Magicka enchants on all pieces of gear possible.
Your goal is 1850+ magicka.

Green Dragon's Blood
Choking Talons
Reflective Plate
Razor Armor
Defensive Stance or Cinder Storm or Shield Charge(This last skill is fairly flexible)
~Standard of Might


Razor Armor with Light armor alone gives you far beyond the soft caps of armor and resist.
Green Dragon's Blood gives you ridiculous healing and is a big source of your immortality. Keeps your stamina flowing for blocks and CC breaks.
Choking Talons keeps all melee off of you while reducing all their damage outputs and still does stupid damage.
Reflective Plate will keep all projectile attacks off of you permanently. No need to worry about melee or ranged now.

Defensive Stace will lower the cost of your blocking so it isn't much of a problem.
or
Cinder Storm will allow you to chase, kite, dodge, and damage all enemies if you find your magicka costs aren't that bad. Allows gives you free stamina because of your passive so you can block more.
or
Shield Charge simply gets you into the fight. You aren't very mobile.


~~Standard of Might will allow you to do whatever you want and not care. Boosts all your resources to near full upon use and will destroy anyone that comes near it. The most overpowered ability in the game. Stronger than any other 2 ultimates combined.


Congratulations, you now damage anyone that tries to damage you, CC and burn everyone around you, have massive resists and armor, heal for ridiculous amounts, have consistent stamina gain, can kite any melee with spammed immobilizes, and can still kill pretty much anybody you want.

Enjoy Dragonknight.

not a lot of offensive abilities here - you just melee and shield slam away? plus some damage from the talons i guess

ya there needs to be more of this out there

First cookie cutter?

Will re-spec tonight and try it out.

I am a Dark Elf, but not a vamp yet. Will look for Bite.

Not familiar with "Twilight's Embrace" though.

What do you do for damage? Whack away with sword?

E: NEwb QUestions: Is Dark Elf better suited for Vamp due to fire resist? Does it fight against the Vamp fire weaknesses?
Secondary I assume is resto staff? I've seen you are a big fan of resto staff but all the passives are with it equipped so does that mean while it's sitting in it's secondary weapon slot not being used you still make use of passives?

Damage scales on max magicka, which you are maxed out on.
You don't need hard DPS abilities to kill people in this game. Everyone gets to have tons of damage because of how the game is designed, regardless of what setup you run.

Nobody except a Sorc can run from you either because of all your CC.
You don't have to 3-shot someone to easily kill them.

Standard of Might, Cinder Storm, Choking Talons are plenty of damage to kill pretty much anyone. You can shield bash in smaller engagements but you don't really have to. And anyone that tries to attack you takes damage as well.

Abilities are the largest source of tanking. Abilities are the largest source of damage.
So you maximize your ability resource, which for some reason also scales your damage (magicka) and you get tanking with damage at the same time.

What do you think about on switch having Fire Chains and Stonefist to grab and cc single targets when charging in? I've had this used against me a few times now and its annoying as fuck if you're retreating and you get grabbed and killed.

That's just tunnel vision and greedy. They can't kill you so there is no need for you to go out of your way to deal with insignificant enemies.

So you have an unequipped, unskilled swap?

You can go resto on swap for sieging so you get tons of alliance points from healing people. Pretty broken.
Or just the same thing on swap but change Cinderstorm to Shield Charge or whatever you want.
