Ideal Race for PVP Archer build?

kadar

For PVP, prioritizing maximum damage (Max Stam + Weapon Damage) over Stamina regen and Crit.
Not gank focused, so "Stealthy" passive is not a must-have.

Plenty of viable options for Race, I'm just looking for the ideal choice. Our logical options for stamina: Imperial, Redguard, Woodelf, Khajiit, Orc.
Right now I'm leaning heavily toward Imperial or Redgaurd (12% Health- Imperial, 9% Stamina Recovery- Redguard), but if anyone can make a strong case for a different choice, I'm all ears. I'm having a really have time choosing.

BONUS question: Opinions about class choice? I main a Stamina NB, so I'm most familiar with that class. Cloak would be an obvious advantage for an Archer, but like I said, it's not meant to be a gank-only build, so other classes could potentially work just fine.

Go Sorc.

Reasons:
1. Something different
2. Bound Arnaments for +8% stam and 11% heavy attack damage
3. Defensive Rune for added protection and CC
4. Dark Deal for magicka to stam and health conversion
5. Crit Surge for out of combat brutality and crit heals
6. Expert Mage increase weapon damage by 2% for each ability slotted
7. Daedric Protection for 20% stam and health recovery when one is slotted
8. Go DW buff bar for added weapon damage to boost Vigor

I'd go with Redguard.

Reason: It's passives are pretty awesome. Max stamina increase, Max stamina regen increase and (not sure if it counts) but upon damaging with physical damage or swords you regain stamina.

If you plan to go crit build then you probably should go kitty race but we redguards are a proud race!
