What to start next...

So I was wondering if anyone could help.

I am looking to create a new character but the problem is I have no idea what race or build I should go for as there are plus and negatives to each, can any one help?? Atm I am playing a lot of pvp with my vr14 Dragonknight but would like to try something new!

Any suggestions out there ?

Well, are you playing a magicka or stamina DK?

Also, are you intending to PvP as a sub-VR reroll? That's always fun.

I am stamina Dk currently and yea I would like to still play pvp.

I used to hate the idea of pvp but now I can't get enough of it!

Having played a stamina NB back at launch when it totally, totally sucked I can say it's very enlightening to play a magicka toon in PvP due to the perspective that you get, being back a bit and seeing the overall battlefield tactics.

Try a healer. Good AP, useful and easy in PvE to farm Undaunted and other endgame gear, and something practically no one will be doing in Blackwater.

As to race, I suppose it depends on what Alliance you are and whether you have access to all races.

I play Khajiit (magicka NB nowadays), Argonian (magicka DK), Imperial Templar and orc stam sorc (scroll runner) so obviously I can't speak to the most effective min/max racial passives.

Challenge yourself and roll an Altmer Magicka Sorc

For PvP, I reckon I'd go with a NB Healer for a bit of a difference personally; all those HoT's on your mates really stack up, even in PvP.

I was thinking of rolling as a healer if I'm honest, always needed somewhere.

I have no idea of best/worst races for them though so should keep me interested learning how to play as a healer

I'm an Argonian, but if you care about racial passives then do not ever run one of them. Either Altmer or Breton for healer really, probably the latter.
