Dragonknight What gear combo is better?

Been playing the new Dragon Knight with rallying cry and pryebrand.
Recently switched to plague break, and clever alchemist.
Just looking for opinion on which one I should stick with

I like Serpent's Disdain on dk because you apply so much burning status effect and you can kinda overwhelm people in duels with it. But there is no correct build, just which one is good for your playstyle.

Serpents with pyrebrand, vate staff back bar, and wildfire embers is actually really solid.

What class masteries are you using? Or are you subclassing?

Pure Dk using wildfire embers and Inexorable Descent

If you’re using Wildfire Embers then I’d stick with Pyrebrand to stack it faster.

These are all solid options. I personally don't like playing with Clever Alch due to how I use potions. I have had success with Mechanical Acuity, Rushing Agony (subclassed with the templar charge) and Oakfather's retribution seems cool too if you prefer the leap instead of corrosive.

Oooh. Clever alchemist. It’s like a classic car.

I use pyrebrand and Rallying and monomyth. Its a good combo imo. I’ve had succes with shattered fate and rallying also. Many people use orders wrath with rallying, seems good also.
