I'll know more when I change the enchantments on jewellry and add one to the staff.
The armour obviously is CP160, but right now it's mostly blue (not going to waste tempers on the Sorrow set when I'll replace it with Julianos).
Do you think I should use different stone than Thief? And speaking of Lover stone, how much spell penetration is acceptable?
Migh as well ask specific questions about champion points when I'm at it.
Apprentice:
20 Spell Erosion, 23 Elemental Expert
Ritual:
13 Thaumaturge
I have 15 more points to spend in the blue section. What shall I do? Raise Elfborn, or maybe Master-at-Arms? Which one of these has more effect on damage? I would say the latter, because it would affect heavy/light attack, Force Pulse, Shock Clench, Haunting Curse, and the ultimates.
I am not sure what to do with the orange passives.
Steed:
13 Ironclad
17 Spell Shield
The Lady:
10 Light Armour Focus
The Lord:
11 Quick Recovery
20 free points there. Maybe more points into Light Armour Focus? Or Hardy?
It's just that I am so used running 60% or more crit it makes me uncomfortable knowing it will go down to 43% (I've just recalculated it). I am debating whether to keep my secondary staff precise, or to make a new one that's sharpened. Right now my spell penetration is 6800-something. That will obviously get a bit higher if/when I put more points into Spell Erosion.@Octopuss
That's a pretty good distribution, actually. Again, I want to discourage you from putting so much focus on crit. Crit is only good when you already have high base damage. If you have low base damage, your first priorities are increasing that base damage and increasing spell penetration (only to 9.1k for overland content).
Seriously dont worry about the crit. It is NOT your most inportant stat. I have 46% crit or something like that and use no precise staves and apprentice stone.It's just that I am so used running 60% or more crit it makes me uncomfortable knowing it will go down to 43% (I've just recalculated it).

@tommalmm
What is a parse?
That's a great post, thanks.
With the armour reccomendations, are you saying I'd be better off ditching Netch's touch? That bonus to shock damage seems to be huge to me.
I made the Julianos set, put 2/3 damage glyphs on jewellry, made me a gold staff, and put magicka enchants on the armour (except for helm, which I might swap for monster helm if I get one).
As it is, I am sitting at 43% crit, 2536 spell damage, 33k magicka, and 16300 health (that's only CP100 food or lower).
I have 52 points in magicka and 12 in health.

OK those stats sound a lot better. Netch is good is all your attacks are Lightning, if you go this route, then by all means it can work. Julianos just allows for more options and versatility. With 160 food, your health should be high enough. At this point it's just getting down your rotation I think. Keep the DoTs up, e=weave your attacks, and don't go crazy spamming skills (i.e. get those lightning heavy attack in) and I think you'll be fine.
Just want to throw in here that the difference between purple jewelry (easy to get for a newbie) and golden jewelry (hard to get for a newbie) is minuscule.pdebie64b16_ESO wrote: »spell damage on your jewelry (golden)
Judging from the OP's post, i don't think he needs to chase after golden jewelry for quite some time and will do just fine without it for now.
