Dragonknights in Elder Scrolls Online use flame and dragon-based skills to overwhelm their enemies. The player is free to focus on one line or distribute points across many, allowing for deep build customization. Class Skills rank up by having them on your Skill Bar while gaining experience. The more skills of a particular line on your bar, the faster you will gain experience in that Skill Line. Current cap is level 50 for these Skill Lines (which is the same as other Skill Lines).
Draconic Power and Earthen Heart skill lines consist of major Magicka-based skills, while Ardent Flame has 2 stamina morphs. Focus on Ardent Flame skills if you need more offensive abilities, otherwise, chose Draconic Power and Earthen Heart for healing and support.
Some sets or Champion System may improve the effectiveness of skills, please see their respective pages for more information.

Anonymousthe ability to bypass resistance is crazy. all you need is 5s w/o resistance if you pre stacked dot's to burst somebody down. and next patch they boost bleed damage to make up for it being effected by resistance...? so corrosive plus empowered bleeds= bleeds hit harder next patch. pn top of all this they get an AOE and 3% ax incommign damage per hit for 10s. what a toggle god mode button.

The DK needs their class damage shield size buffed because in PvP it barely gives a 4K shield, which is removed in one hit as its so small. in reality all classes except sorcs need a better damage shield.

Is it meant to be 20s stun for Petrify. That seems like a bit crazy.
It is December 2020 and I can with certainty that dks are one of the weakest classes right now and are laughably out classed by wardens and necromancers in every way.
