Before/after morrowind dps/sustain

I decided, out of curiosity, to see how big the changes will be on my DPS and sustain ability on the test dummy. I haven't done much testing on the PTS, I typically like waiting till the storm hits to take cover, so to speak, so I haven't done any preparation for it in terms of removing all warlord/magican cp and such, so it'll be interesting to see how hard it hits me.

I did a final dps test on my Khajiit stamina nightblade, I have about 496 CP, wearing purple 5pc hundings, 3-4 pc night mothers gaze, 3pc purple agility rings. Although the bow is gold, all enchants are gold. Weapon power enchants on the jewelry.

I've been practicing a lot on it, back when the dummy came out I got 8-10k dps, and now this final test I got 28k on it, my highest yet (recent average was 25-27k). Stamina bar never went below 3/4, and at the end it was at 9/10ths.

I wonder what it will be like tomorrow XD

What about you? Anyone else doing a similar test today?

    To find out remove 1 skill point and cost reduction passive but I guess you'll find out today.

    Sustain is being hit on all fronts on the PTS right now. However, we will not know how this will hit live until it hits live.

    Regardless, if sustain ends up being an issue, there is one fix for at least part of it and that is cost reduction glyphs on jewelry.

    Cost reduction is powerful and when CP was first introduced we were all weaker in every way until we got some CP. Running one cost reduction glyph was common in many builds, though we may need more than one in 3.0.

    All depends on how the patch ends up on live.

    Alcast has some good videos with comparisons and builds from PTS already.

    If you're really interested go and watch them, the DPS does drop but if you're a good player it's not much.
