Ok.. lets start with.. I am not your normal forum player. I want to be able to do what ZoS said when they launched the game. I want to play the way I want. I dont mini max but play the much hated "utility" player. Always have and always will in any MMO. I have a DK, so yeah, people expect me to tank, but I envisioned a healer. If my group needs a tank, I put on 5 Whitestrakes heavy armor/2 Night Mothers med and sword and board. If my group needs a healer, I have 5 Magnus light/2 Night Mothers med with TWO heal sticks. Both builds fully traited out. I am also the underdog Werewolf. For most players, I hope that they might find this information useful.
I am a VR14 on live, not fully maxed yet, but working on it. The current NA copy gave me 66 Cha points and finally the full boat of attributes. I spent 22/22/22 Champoin Points. I also spent my attribues as 24 Magica, 24 Health, 12 Stamina.
Below are the results of my putting on my light armor setup and checking the stats on four skills. Then I swapped to heavy armor.
When I got up this morning, I decided to see what happened with changing my attributes. So, I reset to 62 M/ 0 Health / 0 Sta with light armor (Build4). Next, a reset to 0M/0H/62 Sta and heavy armor (Build5):

Feral Pounce:
No Attributes or CP: 2061 dmg / 3047 Sta to use
Attributes Only: 2209 dmg (+148 base) / 3047 Sta to use
Attributes AND CP spent: 2273 (+212 base) / 2981 Sta (-66)
Attributes AND CP spent (Heavy): 2273 (+212 base) / 2981 Sta (-66)
Attributes AND CP spent (Build4): 2116 (+55 base) / 2981 Sta (-66)
Attributes AND CP spent (Build5): 2810 (+710 base) / 2981 Sta (-66)
I am pretty much surprised at how little attributes altered skills. The CP seem to be tweaks but not really as much change as one might expect from a "Champion".
Full stamina builds had large damage increases with heavy armor, while full Magica bullds with light armor barely tickled the size of increase. As expected tho, full magica did affect the size of a heal, just.. not as substantially as the damage increased. However the stamina/heavy builds had a huge increase in the cost of magica, vs the expense of changing to magica/light not moving the bar on cost of stamina.

Where is the end game? You just played it.
Why don't I have 300+ skill points? Because you skipped content along the way.
Where is new content? Sigh.
