I'm new to ESO. I can't decide what to do for PVP. I've asked around and people told me Stam templars were nerfed into the ground, yet they look fun to play. Being new I'm already going to suck so to start I don't wanna play something already nerfed into the ground + my mad noob skills. I like classes that are in your face and can deal damage plus survive a good amount.
Was thinking DK, Templar for my classes since the world seems over run with NB. Not wanting to Run Warden just yet as I figure there will be plenty of those out there as well.
Just asking your opinion and if others wanna flame me they can. I dont wanna play FOTM or follow the heard I just want something that I can sink my teeth into and do decent while I re-learn the game.
Stamplar wasn't nerfed into oblivion, however the change to mighty cp, and the master at arms cp not effecting jabs did weaken them a little. Your main dps ability is a channel that can't be block castes and is a bit annoying to weild in lag. Also unlike any other stam class, their sustain tool comes from having to kill an enemy. Which compounds the problem a little bit more, but we were gifted power of the light so that evens it out, however you don't have an organic CC that goes through dodge or block, so we are back to compounded.
Stamplar, while fun to play requires a bit more positioning knowledge, knowing when to go open yourself up to fully attack an enemy to get a kill similar to how mag sorc has to attack in windows when shields are up, they need to have timing with that kill so they get resources back kinda like how a dk leans on battle roar for sustain, you can shed negative effects which helps make you a little tankier and have some better mobility. granted each other class does some of these things better but stamplar could find itself at number 2-3 on those lists. Where Templar excels is keeping pressure on an opponent.
If you're just starting out again I'd probably say go stam dk as I feel they have a little more room for error, but if you pay attention and have a general concept of what you are doing no class is too difficult to learn.
Thank you for the advice, all classes do ok in pvp at this time?
Strongly suggest you avoid magicka DK and magicka NB. The skill curve on these classes is pretty tough if you're just learning.
Any stam variant is very solid. Stam DK is probably the most straightforward spec for a beginner.
Magicka Templar and sorcerer are both really excellent right now, in my opinion.
RE: faction. On PC NA things feel pretty balanced right now. I think EP probably has a few more active guilds, but it's hard to say.
