Which in your opinion is the best ...

How is your healing vs. DK healing with the 7 sec +30% healing

Stam sorc is top dog IMO. The mobility and damage output is the best available.

I will say my sustain and healing a little bit better on my stam sorc than my dk thanks to Dark deal even with posions am fine.With 2 pumps of Dark deal am full health and full stam. plus I don't have to run 2h for rally and can use any mundus stone I want.

What do you think is the best set up sword and board or two handed /bow ..
I run small man groups 2 to 6 most of the time

I use my Stam Sorc for VMA. Loving it! About to take Vigor off my bar completely. That Crit Surge is the best!

Lol why do I sense this is going to turn into another cliche #NerfSorc threads?

I have a lot of experience with both... hands down, Stam Sorc is just so so good. Mobility is key. There is just too much positive going on with Stam Sorc. Dark Deal, Hurricane, Surge, bolt escape... are all so very powerful!!!

Stam DK... we have dots that are easily purged and in group fights are basically worthless... sure, we can tank... but I can build tanky on my Stam Sorc and GTFO when there are too many enemies... my Stam DK... just dies in the end especially if I try to build with some damage in mind.

I have tried out so many different combinations of sets for my Stam DK... by comparison, my Stam Sorc works well with many different combinations.

I recently went back to my Stam DK... been trying builds out that aren't cookie cutter... it's been abysmal for the most part in PvP... I really wish dual wield had some form of execute

I haven't played much on a stam sorc but they didnt feel as good to me as a stam dk. I play solo pvp and it was still harder to survive as stam sorc. Maybe I just suck though.

Wait how does two dark deals bring you back to full stam? I've never used the ability (spec'd for vma) but I've seen people use it and it fills up maybe 10% of their stam

Still though. Go with DK. The moment you run into a fasallas user it's gg if you don't know what you're doing

Vitality potions and major mending make me like my DK better. Wings help a lot when getting overwhelmed. But Dragon Leap is still my favorite ultimate. Nothing like breaking people's back till they start screaming after there dead.

I will say I like stam sorc better then my dk open world but Iately I've been really loving my stamplar s/b with 2 hand. 5 black rose 5 armor of trainee 2 tremor scale. 42k stam 31k health and 20k vigor tool tip with major mending lol

I have been mainly playing on my Khajiit NB but fancied a change and decided to make a new character for side line play and went with a Stam DK becasue i had heard they were pretty decent at DPS and they had alright Health. Although when it comes to Champion Points i was thinking of putting them in crit damage and crit resitance along with stamina reduction and regen? Im pretty new to this so sorry for the noobishness haha!

Man I see people saying sorc sorc sorc... but I'm still seeing DK a little on top in the fighting department while sorc is ahead in the mobility department. The resource management between them isn't far apart, except that a stamsorc needs to be smart about RELYING on dark deal for their sustain in case of an intelligent enemy who makes it hard to get that cast in. Major mending vs critsurge has one major difference - shields. DK is going to be able to recover from incoming magicka shield build damage more easily (magsorcs, and light armor magblades/temps/dks). Mobility is the big part where sorc wins - especially if they go with dark bargain to power their streak and put some real stam sustain in their build instead of relying on Deal.

You could not possibly go wrong with either one, and choosing based on some forum opinions of strength is a mistake.

open world: stam sorc > stam dk -maybe this will change next update if all the cheese gets patched
dueling: if they are equally skilled, stam dk > stam sorc -from my experience
