Inferno staff damage.

I've seen people hit with destro heavy attacks for 10k+. How is that type of damage obtained? Is it through the staff expert in champion points, or does spell damage or weapon damage increase the numbers as well?

✭✭✭✭✭I'm pretty sure heavy and light attacks on staves scale from spell damage. So maxing out your magicka, sets with spell damage + max magicka, destro passives, sorc power surge, inner light, CPs are all contributing factors to increasing your damage output with staves. That, and flame staves hit like trucks anyway.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭spell dmg + max magicka is how to increase staff dmg, it was likely a heavy attack, so all the passives that contribute, also a dk skill molten armaments adds 40% dmg to heavy attack.PS4 EU DC

asneakybanana✭✭✭✭✭10k isn't much tbh. A good heavy attack build will hit non vanps for 15k+ crits and vamps for over 25k crits. The combination of around 3k spell damage, 17k spell penetration, 35k mag and igneous weapons for a dk allows for huge numbers. In pve on a super low health mob it isn't uncommon to see over 60k heavy attacks with molten armaments morph. Also 1% in ele expert boosts your heavy attack damage by the same as 1% in staff expert so if you want the highest heavy attack possible you need to balance the 2 trees.Asneakybanana AD DK Former emperor of Chrysamere and Chillrend.

60 000 damage heavy attacks ? No, definately not. Must be a typo
The only thing in this game capable of pulling such numbers would be Soul Assault with all kind of buffs and if each tick would crit.Edited by Dracane on August 16, 2015 9:19AMAuri-El is my lord,

Your spell damage can be around 2500-2600 if you max it out without using dual wield.

I appreciate the help that sounds like a massive difference between what i have what of each set will i need to get that kind if damage and what will i lose out in by switching magicka recovery? Max magicka?

You should max out your damage. Of course, regeneration is very strong and if you never run out of Magicka, you can't die so easily. But you also won't be able to kill fast enough.
I get so bored when seeing duels between someone and a regeneration Sorcerer. They don't deal any damage.
Sorcerer damage is too easy to mititgate. There will be few situations, where you'll be able to harm your enemy and you have to use these short moment to kill them if possible. You can only win, if your enemy totally messes up or runs out of ressources when you are a regeneration build.
Take as much regenration as you can, but 2100 Spell damage buffed is the minium if you don't want 1 hour fights.Auri-El is my lord,

I feel you, i have only just recently started properly building my Sorcerer and whilst the changes i made to have amazing magicka regen have helped with the Sorcerery side of things the very little damage is hurting me in big mobs.
I had already planned for the cyrodiils light rings to be added soon but i may have to switch out my seducer for martial Knowledge see if that helps me. I don't currently have any jewellery sets so that could help but should i still lack in spell damage i'll have to make the full change.

revonine✭✭✭✭My fully charged heavy inferno attacks on my magicka NB I swear hit as hard or harder than my skills sometimes. They also damn near one shot unprotected vamps (or do if it's a crit). Full damage setup though as others have said it scales of max magicka and spell power.0 -

ppl build regen sorc? it's so easy to get 1500 mag regen on a sorc without actually using regen gear or drinks, high elf passive and cp pretty much gives you 1500.

✭✭✭✭✭IMO the absolute minimum your spelldmg should be is 1700-1800(unbuffed), and then your max magicka should be 30-35k. But try to push it higher.
