Veteran "Deathless" Tank Build (Dragon Knight)

THE DEATHLESS BUILD

Race: Nord

Champion Points: +561

Equipment:

2 pieces of Mighty Chudan
5 pieces of Hist Bark Set
5 pieces of Ebon Armory Set

All heavy, except Medium Hands.

Sign:
Atronach

Points:
+0 Magicka
+0 Health
+64 Stamina

The Purpose:

This evolution of the Faceless Build moves towards simplifying some of the more demanding PVE tanking challenges in the game. VDSA, Deathless Runs and even Trials are made more manageable by breaking down the Dragon Knight class to its core and honing its incredible utility and durability. Although you’re no longer granted the flexibility of the Faceless Build’s “any helmet” concept – by committing to Mighty Chudan and freeing up Champion Points for damage mitigation, you will be hard-pressed to find an easier build to Tank the hardest content in the game. #IMATANK
