ESO Stamina Dragonknight PvP Build

The ESO Stamina Dragonknight PvP Build is one of the tops in the game. This build has everything you need to be successful in PvP.  A burst ultimate, damage over time effects that melt enemies, and crazy survivability.  Pick this build-up if you want something that plays well offensive, defensive, group, or solo.  This build plays the hybrid style, blending both magicka and stamina skills and weapon choices to give it the most flexibility in the game.

Last updated March 16th, 2023: I played this in Update 37, Scribes of Fate and keep the current setups as they remain just as viable.  There are essentially a few ways to play this build, bomber, 1vX and plague break group utility.  I believe the strongest for solo players is 1vX setup while “bomber” is great playing with coordinated groups or specifically in Cyrodiil.  Update 37 nerfed the healing of Mara’s Balm but remains the strongest defensive set due to the cleanse that the DK lacks innately.  Moreover, the DoT pressure combined with Maarselok monster helms remains god-tier single target pressure. 

Vampire Mist Form has changed recently, which gives this build access to high mobility.  I personally don’t use Mist Form on this build due to the lack of bar space. Feel free to go stage three vampire if you struggle with mobility due to Sea-Serpent Coil.  Additionally, Wrecking Blow now gives Major Berserk which you can easily swap to a Two-handed setup, drop Sea-Serpent Coil for another mythic and have another great setup.

Stamina Dragonknight PvP Build
Pros Cons
Best Survivability Magicka Dependent
Easy to Start Requires Vampire for Mobility
Amazing Resource Sustain
Flexibility in Builds

The Stamina Dragonknight PvP Build (hybrid) remains the strongest class in ESO PvP.  It hits the sweet spot between resource sustain, survivability, mobility, damage, and ease of play.  Pick this up as a sweatlord or a beginner and you will feel powerful with or without meta gear.  You have flexibility in skills, gear and weapon choices, and now with Elusive Mist rework, high mobility.  The major downside is the use of many magicka skills to make it work, which you could argue is more of a magdk than stamdk.  The major pros of the Stamina Dragonknight:

  • 12 Seconds of near invincibility and 100% penetration on direct damage with Corrosive Armor.
  • Some of the best resources sustain and ultimate generation for playing aggressively.
  • Built-in major breach, major/minor brutality, major defile, and major mending.
  • Great burst healing and healing overtime from multiple sources.
  • Gear sets give you a huge advantage when using procs and defensive sets.
  • All of your ultimates are amazing for defensive and offensive potential.

When you build the DK right, you’ll be sitting at around 6,000 Weapon Damage, 30,000 Resistance, high critical, multiple proc sets and a massive stat pool.  The easiest experiment you can do for” is this class the best” is look around at all the “high” level players.  What are they playing battlegrounds?  What are they playing in Imperial City? And who’s leading the charge in PvP?  Most likely it will be a Stamina Dragonknight and if you haven’t tried it yet I would, it’s the strongest it’s ever been in Update 37 Scribes of Fate.

Skills

Front Bar: 1vX Playstyle

The Stamina Dragonknight PvP Build Front Bar Weapon Options: They are all good choices depending on your play style and needs. Experiment with what works best. I prefer DW/2H and it works great in any context.

  • Dual Wield has the best passives for pure damage and big AoE damage.  DW is great for big massive damage.
  • Two-handed has the best passives for sustain and burst. 2H is better for dueling and 1v1 fights.
  • Bow has great burst damage with the Toxic Barrage ultimate at the range but needs 2-3 abilities for damage to make it work.

Shattering Rocks (Morph of Petrify | Skill line: Earthen Heart) - Stun that cannot be avoided by dodging and block. Used to setup opponents before a kill shot. I take this morph for increased healing.

Molten Whip (Morph of Lava Whip | Skill line: Ardent Flame) - Whip gives bonus to weapon damage and a magicka dump offensively. Use this after a stun when an opponent is vulnerable. Build up stacks with Flames of Oblivion before engagements.

Noxious Breath (Morph of Fiery Breath | Skill line: Ardent Flame) - AoE hard hitting DoT that reduces resistances. This is a must before burst combo to lower resistance and ability status effect.

Flames Of Oblivion (Morph of Inferno | Skill line: Ardent Flame) - Critical buff, 3x targets and instance damage unlike Venomous Claw. Claw is great in longer lasting fights/duels. If you can't sustain use claw or go with Camo hunter for passive increase damage.

Rending Slashes (Morph of Twin Slashes | Skill line: Dual Wield) - This is your flex spot on the bar. Ideally, you'll be using the Master's Duel Wield setup to nuke down solo targets. If you want more AoE, drop and use Whirling Blades. If you want a Two-Handed Playstyle, use Wrecking Block.

Ferocious Leap (Morph of Dragon Leap | Skill line: Draconic Power) - massive burst damage and great damage shield.


Back Bar: 1vX Playstyle

The Stamina Dragonknight PvP Build Back Bar Weapon Options: They are all good choices depending on your playstyle and needs. Experiment with what works best.

  • Frost Staff - can either use magicka or stamina for blocking via tri focus passive.  Frost also gives as much damage reduction as Sword and Shield and you can use the enchant and have some range.
  • Two-handed great - for buffs and healing. The Rally skill has the best passives for sustain and burst healing.
  • Restoration staff - the best buffs and healing. The strength of Resto is fully charged heavy attacks for major mending and magicka sustain.
  • Sword and Shield - great choice when blocking The benefit of a sword and shield is using stamina for block mitigation when taking tons of pressure. Switch to sword and shield if you like a slower pace gameplay or if you struggle with survivability.

Volatile Armor (Morph of Spiked Armor | Skill line: Draconic Power) - armor buff that does AoE damage and gives us healing received bonus.

Degeneration (Morph of Entropy | Skill line: Mages Guild) - Degeneration provides more single-target DoT pressure, though Molten Armaments is great when not playing a 1vX build. Apply this on your back bar first before launching into combat.

Elemental Susceptibility (Morph of Weakness to Elements | Skill line: Destruction Staff) - One of the best skills in the game for single target bursting combined with a Vateshran Ice staff is absolutely insane! If you're not using the Vateshran back bar setup, consider this your flex spot. I prefer either Race Against Time or Vampire Elusive Mist running stage 3 here for mobility.

Coagulating Blood (Morph of Dragon Blood | Skill line: Draconic Power) - Magicka based burst heal. Use this when very low and relay predominately on Resolving Vigor when above 60% health.

Resolving Vigor (Morph of Vigor | Skill line: Assault) - burst heal over time. Recast this skill every 20 seconds for minor resolve.

Corrosive Armor (Morph of Magma Armor | Skill line: Earthen Heart) - defensive ultimate which you’ll need without pocket healers helping you. In group, I swap to Shifting Standard for more synergy damage.


Bomber Setup: 2 Handed Front Bar

Used for bombing or destroying large groups at once.

Choking Talons (Morph of Dark Talons | Skill line: Draconic Power) - Lock enemies in place with this.

Noxious Breath (Morph of Fiery Breath | Skill line: Ardent Flame) - AOE debuff and damage.

Camouflaged Hunter (Morph of Expert Hunter | Skill line: Fighters Guild) - Slotted for critical damage and minor beserk proc.

Carve (Morph of Cleave | Skill line: Two Handed) - Your main spammable with Master's Weapon and tons of players hits super hard.

Draw Essence (Morph of Inhale | Skill line: Draconic Power) - Huge damage and healing on front bar.

Ferocious Leap (Morph of Dragon Leap | Skill line: Draconic Power) - Used to stun and knockback.


Bomber: Bar Two Sword and Shield

Volatile Armor (Morph of Spiked Armor | Skill line: Draconic Power) - Armor buff

Volcanic Rune (Morph of Fire Rune | Skill line: Mages Guild) - Used to pull in targets with Dark Convergence.

Molten Armaments (Morph of Molten Weapons | Skill line: Earthen Heart) - Used for weapon damage buff. Swap to Degeneration on the 1vX Build for extra DoT pressure.

Resolving Vigor (Morph of Vigor | Skill line: Assault) - Heal over time

Coagulating Blood (Morph of Dragon Blood | Skill line: Draconic Power) - Burst heal

Corrosive Armor (Morph of Magma Armor | Skill line: Earthen Heart) - Pop before charging in for insane damage and damage reduction. Swap to Shifting Standard if you're playing in a group with a healer.


Werewolf Bar (when transformed)

If you choose to play this as a Werewolf, here's what you need to know. In this build Werewolf pairs greatly with a new mythic, the Oakensoul Ring, because as the werewolf, you have only one bar regardless. If you are playing as Werewolf, use these skills and ultimate:

Feral Pounce (Morph of Pounce | Skill line: Werewolf) - Great for closing distance and double cast for execute.

Hircines Bounty (Skill line: Werewolf) - Incredible heal that gives us major brutality

Deafening Roar (Morph of Roar | Skill line: Werewolf) - AoE stuff that sets off balance and gives major breach and minor maim.

Howl Of Agony (Morph of Piercing Howl | Skill line: Werewolf) - Strong conal damage in front hits harder.

Claws Of Life (Morph of Infectious Claw | Skill line: Werewolf) - Incredible debuff and damage over time that heals very well.

Pack Leader (Morph of Werewolf Transformation | Skill line: Werewolf) - The ultimate gives you a boost to weapon damage/spell damage via minor courage and you take 10% less damage.

This Stamina Dragonknight PvP Build gear loadout is what I use in open-world Cyrodiil, one-vs-one fights.  It has the most single target pressure and damage in the game.

Maarselok: Obtained in Lair of Maarselok Vet Dungeon, requires Scalebreaker DLC.
  • WHY? Currently, one of the best proc damage sets in the game when playing melee.
