S/O to all my Magicka brothers and sisters out there!

Shout out to all the people not giving up on their Magicka class and giving in to play these cookie-cutter stam builds. Times are hard right now, but we will RISE my brothers and sisters, we will RISE!... #NoETAtho

I always enjoyed magicka over stamina, I'd enjoy it even more if there was a smaller gap.

I love my magsorc and will never give up on her!

I do wish I had my 20 second shields back for trials.

Ive been Stamina since i started this game. Ive seen Magicka and Stamina balance change from update to update. Its not like magicka has been a little down for that long.

Before anyone comments and players yell at me and my stamina privilege... nerf viper, velidrith, DBoS, Poison Inj, Executioner.

Nerf Radiant though!

I love my Magplar.

Been my main class for over a year.

Still run trials nearly every day on my Healer, and have her clone who needs Meteor morphed and maxed, and Undaunted Passives, and she's good to go for nearly everything.

Maybe I do not have good builds but as a regular stamina character player I could not believe how easy it was to take my magicka templar places that my stamina characters could not go - and live.

She is built as a healer but the damage she can put out matches or betters my stamina builds and the added bonus of self healing makes me think that she is the complete package and possibly OP. I love my stamina characters but they generally either run out of stamina or health and need support of others in tough situations, whereas my templar just keeps going.

It may just be that my stam characters aren't set up as well as they could be but the templar is a lot easier to play, especially in PVE. All of my characters, stamina and magicka, still get hammered in PVP but that is as much down to operator error as anything else.

Magplar and a Stamblade. Ive almost got a Magsorc up to 50 as well to join them. Magic will always be my love, but i wont deny how much ive enjoyed my Stamblade.

Dat Jesus Beam though... its real.

I think any magicka (specifically msorcs) who feel like moving to the stam side should rewatch the ESO cinematic trailer when the Dragonknight (stam :P) fellow walks into Mannimarcos room and BAM, doors slam shut and the magick haze washes over them. You know **** hit the fan. Go guys go rewatch it! It's so short but I am in love with that scene. It shows the raw and untamed power of sorcery.

Yes, I know its the cinematic trailer and supposed to exaggerate the game but holy crap does it make me want to stay a sorc no matter what happens to us.

Here it is at 3:30. Eee!

Edit: I just rewatched it again. I want our staves ultimate to look like that.

Would love to be able to use the spell Mannimarco just did in that clip. So awesome. Love the power and the whole essence of Mannimarco. He's like a mad wizard.

TBH I cant decide... Over months of tests and adjustments I managed to build my msorc to lvl where he is efective again. Then In few days Ive made my samblade to hit even harder and have more survivability:/

Side note:
Why there is so much difference how we see stam and mag power? Simple thing. When we will compare stam and magica build in the same way, with same no set gear you will see that magica is way stronger so its better when we start our adventure with ESO. But in time, when you start to get more gold and item sets stamina with good gear outperforms magica. So it basicaly is made like it should be, magica is raw power, while stam depends on powerful equipment. Well but it doesnt change the fact that magica needs some help, especialy magblades and magdks, sorcs are quite good but its the class with bigest amount of weak skills, sorcs have now like frags, curse and fury. Rest was nerfed or is very optional since everyone now have hardened ward.

I want to original intro trailer back

Anyway, my magblade does well in PvE. In PvP I can manage. I don't have the burst of any stamina build and I certainly cannot 1 vs X (although I did kill 3 guys who where attacking me not long ago but they where probably new to PvP) but I can hold my own.

I do wish magicka burst was a bit higher. I don't use concealed weapon anymore because melee magicka is not recommended. But swallow soul combined with some DoT's (crippling grasp and entropy) works well for me with impale as execution since it has pretty good range also.

Yeah it's bad. Really bad.....

Luckily there are some good Magicka sets for us next patch! ZOS made sure to give Stamina absolutely great sets though to counteract our good sets... And they buffed Velidreth with no nerfs to some current disgustingly OP Stam sets

Hopefully we will see at least SOME balancing Q1-Q2 2017. Honestly getting sick in PvP of these extremely tanky OP Stam Healer/Tank/DPS builds with perfectly fine sustain.

I still 1vX all the time, but it has nearly died since Dark Brotherhood released and is only getting worse (relative to prior patches). That's before the fact that Stam is so strong that 1vX is almost not viable on Magicka versus any semi-decent players.

Magicka isn't bad in PvE at least

Or the fact that 2h ult isn't getting nerfed for Live... or the fact that destro ult isn't getting buffed...
Crossing my fingers we will get some love for Update 13. #WeWillRISE

I love my newbie magNB and I definitely do not plan to swich her to stam !

BRogueNZ

Have one max character, a magplar and its fun enough to just play it 90% of my time, most of it since lvl10 in cyrodiil.

I'm severely tested in crafted gear with no impen at all and for some reason I've been trying to live without BoL.. yeah.. tricky

wookikiller95

There was a Time where mag ruled tamriel, for at least 1 year straight!!!

Everybody was crying:
PLZ ZOSE BUFF STAM!
STAM SORC IS SOOO BAD!


Just think about the endless forum Threads...

and now...

WHY STAM IS GETTING MORE AND MORE BUFFS?!
GIVE LOVE TO MAG ZOS!
BUFF MAG ZOSE!

Bla bla bla... Berry Time the Same Thun gehen zos is trying toll Balance mag and stam.

I know, i know... the Balance is Not the best, there are so many things where zos have to watch if they change something and its so easy to unbalance it.

Yeah... i Hope that some of u Unterstand my stand of view

And i hope That zos will do some Balance for Update 12 or 13

I really want to play as a bowtard like I did when the game launched. Nobody wanted me in a group as I played only with bow but I felt special. Now everyone and their mother has a bow. But I still feel special since not many stick with magblade vampire.

So, who wants a free vampire bite? I am online 19:00 PC EU. I might even reactivate my wife's account so I can give 2 bites a week for vamp and 1 for ww.

Magicka classes arent that bad people make them out to be.

I play alot of IC and there you often fight classes 1 on 1 i play both a stamblade and a magplar and sure youre mobility and speed is far greater with stamina. But the classes i have trouble defeating 1on1 is always magicka and my magicka templar can take on 5-8 guys and still kill them all.

And for everyone who says mag sorcs sucks they are the only class i have trouble killing consistently. Iam not talking about the average magsorc but if you take the best player and build of each class magsorcs are still the hardest to win over 1v1 IMO.
