    Hmm. Kind of depends. Being an altmer and running stamina is pretty bad. Nords, are, errr... not really good either, even from a pvp tanking perspective. A lot of people think orcs are pretty bad, but I just don't think they know how to utilize them.

    I actually kinda agree, our Crit' is kinda meaningless because alot of builds run Impen and the race is the only one in the game without an Attribute bonus...

    But Kotaro likes to show the Enemies of the Dominion that Heart, Strength of Will, and Skill can still defeat them...

    well.. sometimes :wink:

    Are you seriously still going around for about the third day now complaining about stamina? I thought you rerolled magicka according to one of your recent post and you even tried to defend that you aren't a bad reroller.

    Khajiit is very good, mabye even fotm for nightblades. Breton's are healers best friends and also a good choice if you want to swap between a healer build and magicka based dps build.

    Bretons receive more AP, which allows them to purchase additional siege weapons down the line, so that's good.

    Orcs gain inspiration faster, thereby levelling their crafting lines quicker to make better armor at earlier levels, so that's good.

    Redguards have their food last an additional 15 minutes on top of the provisioning passives, so less time wasted eating, so that's good.

    Argonians swim faster in the 2% of swimmable water in Cyrodiil, so that's good.

    Dunmer take reduced damage from lava, making fights in the fissure in Chorrol all the more advantageous for them, so that's good.

    Nords are in the same boat (ha) as Redguards, except for drinks, so that's good.

    Altmer gain experience faster than the other races, so their skills level up earlier than everyone else, so that's good.

    Bosmer take reduced fall damage, allowing them to escape from upper keeps more easily to fight back, so that's good.

    Khajiits have a higher chance to pickpocket NPCs, which means less gold wasted paying off bounties, gold that can be used toward the war effort, so that's good.

    Imperials gain gold at a faster rate, so the roaming NPCs they kill while traversing from keep to keep drop additional gold can go toward purchasing soul gems and other goods from the quartermasters, so that's good.

    They all seem to have their advantages. I don't see how one can be worse than the rest.

    Actually to ESO's credit all races work equally well in pvp depending on your goals, build ideas, etc. There isn't one that just flat out sucks.

    That being said, for a while now it seems Imperials have declined in popularity versus the other races. Whereas at launch and the next couple of years Imperial was a popular build choice.

    Most likely dwindling imperial launch edition.

    Even gold edition has to buy imperial in crown store now


    this is pure speculation though*

    I'm going to go with Nord. Nord maybe more versatile than Khajiit, but Khajiits are very good for ganking and stamblades in general. Nords on the other hand have nice max stat bonuses, but there's better options for races (imperial, Redgaurd, Orc) if you're looking for max stat bonuses.

    Since Argonians received recent racial buffs that synergize healing better, I'm going to say Nord as well.

    All that said, Nords can still be pretty awesome Blazing Shield builds or Debuff Tanks ... amongst a number of other niche PvP areas.

    There really isn't an "outlier" race that's far behind everyone else, however ... as @Publius_Scipio alluded to.

    TBH most of the races are pretty good, if I had to pick one I'd probably say Nord but even they are better than they used to be. Obviously some are better than others though, Redguards, Argonians, High Elves, and Dark Elves are probably the strongest races.
