Weakest possible combo?

Evilite

Sk(a)nk Anansie once sang "weak as I am" but what's the weakest combination of race, class and build?

Argonian stamina NB using 2h sword?

Waffennacht

Temp stam using resto staff Argonian, using nothing but magicka moves, everything in stam.... and only spams broken moves.

dreamfarer

Pfff - you're equipping weapons? And using class skills?

Naked Breton combo'ing Left Fist + Right Fist! I got your Piercing Jabs right here buddy!

Cody

be an argonian stamplar that uses TC and spams the mana version of spears.

Be a stamplar. Done.

heystreethawk

Nord NB with all points and enchants in health, rocking two bows and popping off agony, spell sym, blood altar, manifestation of terror and radiant magelight. His ultimate is fumbling shadows, or whatever the non-damage morph of veil is called. He set foot into cyrodiil once and got struck down at the wayshrine as an act of mercy. He is wearing Vampire's Kiss and a couple pieces of Orgrum's Scales, crafted for him by a dear friend in the Sturdy trait, as per his request. He sells Rawhide Scraps to vendors and, upon much deliberation, has decided to spend his life savings on a Bogdan set once TG goes live. We will see how his second visit to Cyrodiil, for the purchase of the monster set he is convinced will cement him as a legend among his people, will fare. He may even attempt a visit to Cropsford, should he leave the merchant unscathed.

So I see you have seen my twitch stream.

This will be my next alt

See I was thinking a lightly-armored character (well-fitted) using a 2-handed weapon (charged), with all attributes into health and only duel wield/staff/bow/sword and shield skills on their bars.

But race/class/build... based on the complaints I see the most on these forums (as I've never played as either of these) I'm thinking an Argonian for the passives, and a Templar for the broken skills.

Should probably limit the combo to Race, Class, mag/stam.

Other wise it's like this, any race, any class, but no points into class or race skills or passives. Just skills from guild, world, alliance ect. 100% attibutes into health, no armor or weapons, just jewelry.

Know what, if you're clever enough, you could probably make a build like this work.

PhatGrimReaper

Magicka, Nord, Templar - Poor class sustain + Lack of synergy with Racials.

Jar_Ek

Argonian stamina sorcerer using dual wield flurry with critical surge, boundless aegis, and a twlight. Has blood altar slotted for the heals.

Didgerion

Just pick any race and don't use racial passives and you will get your weakest class.

And don't equip any weapon or abilities - now you can face the world of tamriel proudly by punching the mobs down...oh and do it naked.

That my friend is the weakest build and class combination you've ever dreamed about.

eliisra

Templar Argonian or templar Nord.

There's just no decent magicka or stamina build out there you have synergy with and can go for. On top of it all you're a templar, that has to play without dmg or sustain bonus.

PvE tank is possible the only option where you have use of your racials. Than again, the only reason to choose a templar tank over another tank class, is if you're going the heal/tank route and for that Argonian and Nord lack magicka bonuses.

Hard to come up with any strong stamina or magicka build where this class+race combinations kicks butts. Maybe Nord sword&board stamplar abusing broken Reverberating Bash cc and axe bleed maybe? Still pretty crap compared to let's say Imperial DK using same cheese build. Argonian roleplay build tho lol?

I have both of these, can confirm the utter lack of synergies unless you're really into swimming or only ever fight frost atronachs.

Daraugh

Now I kinda want to try... not naked, but just make the worst combination of stuff I can think of and see how far I get. Pick a thing, like Maelstrom and see what happens besides my very timely death lol

Nord stam sorc vampire in heavy armor with trapping webs, blood altar.. hmm, could be terrifying.

I have a Nord Templar and run with 2 Argonian Templars, all of which are competitive in all endgame content.

Sure, my argonian magplar does fine at endgame (my nord stamplar is still a baby), but the title of this thread is not "what combo doesn't work at endgame" it's "weakest possible combo." While they can still compete you have to admit that those two combos have much less utility than most other builds in the game.

And that is where we disagree, which is fine.

No problem there, although you have piqued my curiosity as to what you would consider the worst race/class/build combo.

I played this for most of my ESO career. Now I'm a stamina nord templar, and can confirm it is actually weaker .

Evilite

Thanks for all answers and crazy ideas! I used to play another mmorpg before where I was maxed out before they added new features (read cash cows) but realised I like it much more when you start in a prison cell and have to build your fortune.

It's something epic and romantic with being weak from the start and becoming stronger, which pretty much is the essence of rpg..

Not using weapons would be silly but as suggested, using only mage guild skills when being stamina built and so on would surely be fun!

Believe it or not, with the Templars passives, the stamina Templar can reach the most weapon damage of all of the classes.

Sustain is more important, at least in pvp, and in that stamplars suck (unless you're a redguard).
