Light Armor Nightblade Resto staff tank (without the invis exploit)

mousekime111rwb17_ESO
so, 20/20/9 magicka health stamina
full robes
breton with all breton passives
nightblade - all shadow and siphoning passives
resto staff main weapon - all passives
bow offhand - all passives

Staff skill set: innerfire - morphed into inner beast
dark cloak (removes neg effects and when you come out you get 1.5k armor and spell resist for 4 seconds)
combat prayer
circle of protection - morph for the +25% health regen
siphoning strikes - either morph works great - although without a stamina damage dump i prefer the heal
ULT : bolstering darkness morph of veil of darkness - grant allies slip away and a heal -also 60% self damage reduction

Bow skill set (for trash pulls)
Bone spiked shield -pop this run in and get all of the trash to physically start attacking you before your healer and dps show their faces - mobs seem to take a while to change their minds on who they target
dark cloak
ring of preservation (the circle of protection morph i talked about earlier)
bombard - aoe imobilize from the bow tree, very useful
leaching strikes
ULT - soul harvest - to quickly build ultimate between boss fights

Playstyle - keep siphoning strikes toggled on - taunt the boss, keep spell resist and armor well and truly over their soft caps (about 2.5k spell resist and 2.2k armor) power attacking in-between and restoring a ridiculous amount of magicka and taunt the boss where you can (inner beast > circle > dark cloak, combat prayer > power attack > normal attack > cloak > power attack >combat prayer > normal attack > cloak > power attack > combat prayer> inner beast > cloak - fits the timers perfectly obviously blocking hits you can't afford to eat Now doing that without blocking will keep you pretty much permanently flooded with magicka in full light armor, obviously blocking will reduce your magicka gains from resto power attacks and siphoning attacks, but - based on my experience with siphoning attacks and resto powerattacks I highly doubt that one would ever run out of magicka unless you were in fight for a truly excessive amount of time. Also due to the extra healing one gains from leaching strikes, combat prayer and circle - One would probably be able to simply eat everything except for telegraphed power attacks that stun.

For trash pulls just pop bone spiked shield run in - pop ring of preservation and start snaring all the trash (snares and aoe damage tend to pull a lot of attention to) - use cloak for the armor and spell resist as needed.
