So if you're wanting to maximise your damage, simply speaking: having 30k Stamina, you'll do more damage via an ability which uses Stamina than if you had 25k. That's also the same for Magicka. People who go the DPS route typically dump all attribute points in to one or the other and also focus their gear the same way due to this.
On my StamNB I have everything I can geared towards Stamina even though I use some Magicka abilities. As those abilities are only for utility (Cloak, Mass Hysteria, Relentless Focus) rather than damage: I'm not suffering from the above lack output on my main resource (Stamina) and my off-resource pool (Magicka) is sufficient to use those abilities as much as I need to.
Stamina builds have two main sources for heals (which also scale off max Stamina) and I run both of these:SlySnyderJ wrote: »Sunburnt_Penguin wrote: »Regarding your abilities, do you use both Magicka and Stamina for damage?

That's a very good point since I don't have vamp let still looking for it. I have been using an ability for self healing
