    Think about what class makes you smile the most when you pick up a cyrodiil kill quest and what class you know will suck to get 20 kills on (excluding "kill players" and wardens since there aren't as many).

    I know which ones I think "oh good, that'll be easy" and which ones I think "bleh that will suck". Unless you zerg of course then this method doesn't apply.

    I play small group Stamplar daily as my PvP main. I tell our healer (if we have one) to take repentance off so I can get my stam from bodies. IMO magblade is the most underwhelming..it's a very niche class and without VD, Alchemist, and destro ulti they feel like a liability..unless we need someone to cloak away and get a camp up. Don't see many around that aren't sacrificial bombers.

    Mageblade shines in small group, even without being a bomber. A setup like 5 riposte 5 SPC(or trans) 2 Bloodspawn still has the burst to get kills and gives the group nice buffs, plus you're a resto ult battery. Front bar soul harvest, make sure you've got impale, keep your hots up, and work as a support build using your burst selectively.

    I find that I've got insane off healing and high uptime on resto ult while being incredibly tanky and contributing to my groups tankiness.

    As long as I'm not caught in a bad position I can tank a large number of pugs using light armor with this setup simply by virtue of mist form, resto ult, and healing ward. Having cloak on a support build is huge as well since it allows you to relive pressure and reposition without group members needing to assist you.

    really its a measure of how many class skills/abilities you use, and how many universal skills / abilities you use.

    The passives also play a role.

    I would say (magicka) templar atm besides healbots/ group support. Solo they are pretty bad with the lack of mobility and channel skills, no decent gab closer and just one stun that's evaded half the time by evation.

    Stam sorc is brutally bad this patch.

    Brutally bad.

    Like, you can't do enough damage to kill a player stacking full damage bad. And they nerfed fasallas. And everyone runs block builds which are unbreakable.

    It's just aweful this meta. It's the worst meta I've seen.

    It used to be playable, this *** not even playable outside a group with bigger numbers than your opponents.
    It's boring as hell.

    There is currently no viable 1v build on a stam sorc.

    Literallly fake news. I have a great time in every scale of PvP on my stam sorc, and there are plenty of viable builds. Stam sorc actually is one of the more versatile classes that makes excellent use of every weapon type.

    It's not like they have a choice to use anything but weapon skills for real damage, isn't it?

    Doesn't make much of a difference what they use for damage. They hit hard and fast and move on to the next target before you even realize what happened.

    This has not been my experience playing the class at all this patch. I've run a full damage stack on no cp and it doesn't scratch most players.
