Not enough Stam regen

MickeyBN · February 2017

I'm a Bosmer Nightblade, fairly new to PvP and today in Azuras I asked zone "what's the average stamina regen I should expect to have as a Stamblade? Currently on 822". I got laughed at.

Magicka players were boasting to have over 1k Stan regen where others said they had almost 2800. Most of them were telling me "unless you're just a gankblade you need at least 1700 regen".

Ok, so how accurate is this advice and how on EARTH am I meant to reach that much?

Currently using 5p Hundings 5p Spriggan with Warrior Mundus, so yeah pure damage in other words.

What should I aim to replace in order to get my regen up?

Thanks.

For PvP, I usually recommend 2400 unbuffed stamina regen. Usually run 1 stam regen enchant on jewelry (other two wep dmg).

I would replace Hundings with Eternal Hunt, that will boost your regen quite a bit. Also, as a Bosmer, you should have 100 points in Mooncalf in your champion tree.

It depends on the class. More experienced players don't as much regen. I personally run around with 1700-1900 regen for my stamblade and stamplar. Dont need any regen for stam sorc and less than 1500 for stam dk.

Eh, I disagree pretty heavily here. More stam regen is not just for inexperienced players. More stam allows you to be more mobile, sustain better damage, kite with the ability to deal damage directly afterwards, better survivability, etc. etc. Just because someone is more experienced and can manage resources better doesn't mean they don't need as much.

On an open-world stamblade where you aren't simply ganking, roll dodge is a vital part of your survivability. With 1700-1900 regen, you'll have a hard time constantly roll dodging without running dry on stam.

I rarely run out of stam. I only roll dodge when necessary or block and cloak. Heavy attacks helps my sustain. As a stam nb you you need the extra damage to kill targets efficiently. I dont even know anyone that runs over 2500 unbuffed recovery.

It all just depends on what you are doing. If you're ganking, sure you don't need a lot of stamina. If you're regularly 1vXing 5+ players at a time, which is easy to do on a stamblade, you can't afford to not be constantly dodge rolling, sprinting and spamming vigor.

Open world on a stamblade is all about kiting and playing defensive until you can single someone out in an exposed position. It requires CONSTANT use of stamina-consuming mechanics to stay defensive. Most open-world stamblades rely very little on stealth for defense, if you're sitting in stealth ganking then of course you won't need high stam regen.

I am an open world stam blade lol. I played with 2400 recovery before and it just felt like a waste. Ive tested different numbers and felt perfectly comfortable between 17-1900 recovery. Everybody has their own requirements for recovery i guess lol.
