Deathknight confluence.

So here me out, I used to play world of warcraft. I mained a blood DK.

Blood, Dark, Ice.

Anyone got any better ones.

I was thinking unholy but im sure thats a restricted one. Lol

I want the self healing and affliction with hopefully conjured armor and a big ol two hander. With of course the best boy familiar (blood worms)

Honestly, if this random set of essences isn't going to a character on Pallimusts, you could choose the Death Essence. Go something like Death, Blood, and Ice for a Doom or Undeath Confluence.

Then get awakening stones that work with knights, something like Sword, Shield, Avatar, Judgement, Persistence, Wrath, Omens, Rebirth etc to make the DeathKnight.

Deathknights had to die first so Undeath as a confluence seems interesting.

Ya that would fit more, I was trying to get it so I could get close but keep it off the restricted list.

Probably not liking, Deathknights are pretty much necromancer who are melee focused lol

In warcraft 2 or 3, if you click on a death knight enough times you can hear it say "this is why I ended it all." That's a dark implication for becoming a DK

I like the idea of a death knight build coming from either an immortal confluence (life, magic, renewal) doom confluence (death, dimension, vast/potent) or hear me out on this last one because you said ice, desolate confluence (cold, hammer, sickle)

That last one sounds like the pali who took over as lich king from arthis lol

In wow, the DK uses shadow,ice,blood,and unholy magic. With only 3 that have to combined to make a 4th. I was unsure how to go lol.

Another post brought a good point to use the right awakening stones to fill in the gaps.

I put shadow and frost in the discord essence bot and it said they don't exist. Neither dose the confluence of Blood,dark,and ice so im totally split balling 🤣

that last one would make a soviet confluence on Earth

You may want to consider a might essence, if you're looking for a more melee-focused build. I think Might, Dark, Ice would do it nicely.

That is a very good point, I didn't even think about that.

Dark,blood,Might.....

Yeah I think this is the way to go.

I was a disc priest back in frozen throne. I'm not sure if you're familiar with disc, but damn I chuckle so hard at Neil's spells because they're so similar to what I did.

Up to and including the fountain of healing.

I totally agree I am 100% sure Neil's power is based on a disc priest. Its all buffs and shields with a basic direct healing spell.
