On this page you will discover the Accolade Hybrid Dragonknight Tank build, but also options for Veteran Dungeons, Veteran Trials and information on the ‘Affinity’ 1-Bar DK Tank Build.

Accolade is a Hybrid DK Damage Dealer Tank build designed for completing for all content, you can comfortable complete all Overland content without the usual limits of extremely low damage output.

With the Accolade build you’ll be able to easily solo overland content as a Tank such as World Bosses, Delves, Quests and Dolmens. You’ll be able to complete solo Arenas such as Maelstrom Arena and Vateshran Hollows even on veteran difficulty!

With Accolade you’ll also be able to Tank while doing some damage in things such as Normal Dungeons, Random Dungeons, Normal Trials, Pledges and Veteran & Hardmode Base Game Dungeons.

For Veteran Dungeons and Hardmode, Veteran Trials and Hardmode, see the Dungeon and Trial tabs for both gear and skills. Alternatively see: Main Tank, Off Tank, and Dungeon Tank builds.

Accolade is for people who only play Tank and want to try new content while maintaining the Tankiness. The DPS output of this build is somewhere between 35-50k DPS depending rotation accuracy. All of this is possible while also Tanking and self healing!

This build was inspired by Deltias Gaming who I followed back when I started ESO and I used to run a build like this that was created by him about 5+ year ago.
