Attribute Points

AlphaCrucis

Can people give me some feed back on how they distribute their attribute points for either a magika NB or stam NB. Thanks in advance

My Stamina NB has all in stamina.
You can add a few to health if you do not have good enchants or gear.
I suggest you eat your lovely food and add accordingly.
Note: you want about 20k in health by vr14 to be useful in dungeons.

Attribute points are something you'll probably need to adjust whenever you change gear or enchants. It also depends on your race quite a bit. For example: If you're a nord, you only need around 19k HP to survive the same amount of damage as you're taking 6% less damage from all sources. Or if you're imperial, you'll need less attributes in health to reach that 20k mark.

Just as SLy_kyti mentioned, equip all your gear, eat your buff food (unless you use drinks) and add enough points into Health until you hit 20k, then spend all the rest in your Stam / Mag, depending on which is your main resource.

The 20k HP is only needed if you're planning on doing Veteran Rank 16 scaled veteran dungeons. You can live with less if you're really good at avoiding damage. I've healed VR16 vet dungeons with ~13.3k HP on my VR3-4 Nightblade healer and managed just fine for the most part, but it can be a bit rough.

For leveling, I usually go 100% into Mag or Stam.

IC information:

I'm hacking through IC solo & just clicked VR16 BUT only in VR14 purple medium, I'm full stamblade including stamina enchants all but 2 jewelry, giving only 17k total HP without food.
It's not enough in here, even with the 5k HP buff I'm getting from the campaign & food of course, every double or triple gold boss I'm finding has 6k min attacks, & 17k heavy attacks, and with my lone heal of Rally, & Brawler for shields, in pugs I'm getting smashed whilst the others are holding out with their pets, or tank builds.
I don't have Vigor or anything else undaunted/Pvp based...for what that info is worth in your forward planning.
I'm ok with 1-2 & sometimes 3 single gold NPC's, but above that I'm toast, although from a distance with the bow I'm doing serious damage...it's the up close melee that's killing me.

I'll need more health, & health regen, as 15-16 gear is impossible to craft for me as yet.
