Stamina DPS Healing Issue

I have been playing with V16 Khajit Stamina DPS, he can do amazing damage but his healing is very poor. Rally and Vigor are not much help comparing magicka builds.

Stamina DPS rely too much on Healers, especially if end Boss hits good magicka numbers i.e. Veteran trail end bosses ICP, WGT, City of Ash, Funnel Grotto, Crypt of Hearts.

As healer if have both Stamina DPS then it becomes tiresome to heal and heal and heal...

    Not Stamina's fault the game wasn't catered to it.

    When the main spammable abilities of most magic builds (Whip, Sweeps, Funnel, etc) are also healing abilities, of course it'll be easier to heal those people because they're already passively healing themselves for the most part.

    Although Dual Wield is somewhat better now due to the healing morph of Flurry and Blood Crazed to help keep a stamina build alive, there are still a large gap in performance between magic and stamina in regards to sustain, utility, etc.

    Do I get this right, you complain that there are group setups where you as healer actually have to heal your team mates? If anything I would complain about the reverse issue, why do I as healer not need to cast a single heal when doing any dungeon together with magicka nbs?

    My stam build does okay. Then again, I run brawler, rally, and vigor on my bars and don't mind losing DPS. I find that stam builds that don't like losing dps are sometimes the ones that will say "I'm at 50%...I better hit harder!"

    On my nb I use reapers mark and killers blade and just pick targets carefully, I block cancel skills a lot which I think might help avoid some damage. I only use rally for pvp and vigor for really intense situations. I got used to not having a spammable heal as I hated using 2h and doing pvp to get vigor. I think it makes you a better player having to play carefully and prioritize. There are some instances though that you just need a healer for but I don't think the game needs changed. If anything I think they should encourage more group synergy and dependence on each other

    Stam classes definitely need to kill fast to avoid death. In PVE, it becomes a lot harder than playing mag with all the heals and ranged line of defense.

    Rally + Vigor are mandatory, but higher crits help the heals. Players running 80% crit get a lot more out of Rally/Vigor.

    Blessed & Quick recovery + high crit are pretty helpful.

    Essence of lingering health with 30% vitality looks like a winner for Stams.
