I run 5 Julianos, 3 willpower, 2 Ilambris on a dunmer vamp magsorc. Will I be better off replacing willpower and Ilambris with 5x burning spell weave?

Curious that you only have 10 items listed? Yes or no on vMA staff? Curious.

However I'm gonna go based all on second hand knowledge and say that BSW is something like 50% up time in the best of scenarios. From my experience ilambris procs a lot. Gonna guess that ilambris out beats BSW in most scenarios.

I use gold seducer inferno staves on both bars left over from a previous build. I did vma once and don't think i have it in me to farm two sharpened vma staves.

What are your thoughts on replacing my Julianos with bsw?

Assuming PvE... As long as you have fire damage going out (Crushing Shock/Force Pulse, Wall of Elements, etc), Burning Spellweave will be an improvement for you over Julianos. Farming for the armor is pretty simple, get some friends together and spam Normal CoA I for it. Keep the Ilambris, keep the Willpower until you can get Minor Slayer access.

Ilambris is Best in slot for sorcerer. I suggest you keep it. Because you are a Dark elf burning spell weave would benefit you as long as you kept to flame damage as your primary source, so don't even think about equipping a lightning staff you intend to switch.
