Stamina Dragonknight PVP

Unbroken is a sturdy Stamina Dragonknight PVP Build in ESO. The build is putting emphasis on defense and survivability, weakening and wearing down opponents before you can finish them with your strong burst damage. Unbroken is designed for Battlegrounds and open world PVP. You can fight several enemies 1v1 or even survive against multiple targets but the build shines when you cooperate with your team.

Key to Unbroken’s success is your ability to generate Ultimate faster and use your Ultimate skills as soon as they are ready to restore resources.

If you are a new player, you can take a look at my Dragonknight Beginner Guide. For a Magicka Dragonknight PVP Build you can take a look at Infernum.
