I would also like to know if it's a good idea to have each class and just switch between them whenever the meta changes.

    If you got the time, yeah, it is a good idea to have a Stam/mag version of each class and at least one healer and tank too, that way you can play how you want/need to at the time.

    Personally I have 10 toons, with each being a different race/class combo, each as close to the meta as I can stand.

    My main is an Argonian Templar healer, the rest I made cause I was getting drops that I could not use on him. The rest of my toons are as follows, I could list out why I choose the race I did but I think it is obvious-

    High elf Mag sorc
    Imperial dk tank
    Redgaurd stamblade
    Khajiit stamplar
    Orc stam sorc
    Dark elf Mag dk
    Breton magblade
    Nord warden tank/healer
    Wood elf Stam warden.

    Meanwhile, all the top raid guilds are running every single magicka class, not just mag sorcs. @LadyNalcarya

    Lots of people still grinding characters. You still see tons of Magicka Sorcs because:
    1. Morrowind just released. Everyone has maxed out Magicka Sorcs since they grinded them/their gear 1-2 patches ago. Also people are familiar with the rotations/playstyles of Mag Sorcs atm a lot more than any other DPS. Instead of grinding like crazy, people would rather play new content immediately and grind overtime when the initial hype dies down on Morrowind.
    2. They're still strong for DPS, but longer OP.

    As for the meta.... give it another 2+ months. Sooooo much changed in Morrowind that no one knows what is even close to being truly optimal.

    From what I know it'd likely be a mix of Stamina as well as Magicka. Things are balanced quite well here. There is a clever setup this patch that groups aren't using yet that allows for insane raid DPS.

    As long as you don't play a Magicka Warden your DPS will be high.

    Derps rule.. all the rest are fools.. pretty much SNAFU.
    Power level to CP160 in a week:
    Where is the end game? You just played it.
    Why don't I have 300+ skill points? Because you skipped content along the way.
    Where is new content? Sigh.

    MagSorc is not the king it once was, you still see people on it but like vaoh pointed out it's because it's what alot of bandw... Players are accustomed to and have grinded out. Stam is now doing big single taret DPS again and with the new trips they are nice in AOE. And survivability is up. So they are noice, I think and this is my personal opinion that magDK might be in a pretty solid spot dps wise when this shakes out. But magblade is strong now, everything is good magwarden is a little behind single target but that's partially because no one has figured an optimal rotation and that will be going up as time goes by and the next patch comes out.

    Personally I'm getting 38k on me stamSorc, with regular trial gear nothing fancy... Down a little from last patch but still perty nice imo
