    Stamina builds still lack heals and shields, and as long as this is the case, they will always be weaker than magicka builds. But I wouldn't call stamina builds really underpowered anymore, Snipe and Uppercut do a ton of damage, and all classes had some of their class morphs changed to stamina.

    Depends on who you ask but for DPS purposes, I think Stamina is higher but with far less utility and possibly less resource management than Magicka. I will say however I believe a staff to be better than a bow.
    Bobbity Boop, this game might become poop, but I'll still play because I'm just a pile of goop!

    No, stam is no longer underpowered. Stam dps in almost every class are viable and bring a lot to the table. Haven't seen much from stam sorcs but I imagine it might work.
