I’ve been working on a death knight (currently 97 of 100, https://www.grimtools.com/calc/RVvqlYW2) but I can’t seem to make it through the Crucible, even on Challenger. This character has been very satisfactory in every other situation except the Clone of John Bourbon fight so I’m wondering if maybe the problem is me.
What are your tips and tactics for tackling the Crucible? Is there something pathetically obvious that I’m missing with this build? Any advice would be appreciated.
Your OA is just insanely low, even for Crucible (where you can use buff and banner to raise it). Aim at 2600 at least, for non-crit build, or 2.9k+ for crit one.
What kind of damage do you want to use? Vitality? Then care to convert your damage into it! You dont deal any significant amount of flat vitality damage, so why do you stack it?
If you plan to focus on physical damage (and that is much more reasonable), then forget about vitality damage and its modifiers, and DONT use items that convert physical damage into something else (hint - throw away your useless sword into trash bin).
If you like playing the Death Knight S&B style I would really encourage you to get Krieg’s Set. It is quite farmable and mine just wrecks shit…
Second that the Krieg’s Set is pretty strong, making a DeathKnight viable both in SC and Hardcore.
