First class. Something good for PVP and PVE mostly PVE?

Jay_Pharaoh

Hi, I have recently purchased ESO on PC and have been trying to decide on what class i am going to be running for first playthrough. Ive played a little on a friends PC. Ive tried both a Stamblade Magsorc and Mag templar. Wasnt a huge fan of the templar but the sorc and NB seemed cool. I loved the poison abilities the NB had. I havnt purchased the Morrowind expansion but i will if the Warden is a good class in PVE as well. Thank you.

That's a great start, @jwashingtono43ub17_ESO .

For PvP you'll have to consider your defense ... whether that is keeping a damage shield up 100% of the time or wearing 4-5 pieces of impen in lieu of damage shields.

Yea i think im actually going to make the purchase and pick up tyhe warden and do the same thing but on a warden because i hear they have better damage and tank capabilities.

Im surprised noone has replied to you with this, but DKs are and have been the clear best tanks in the game for awhile now considering endgame PVE, wardens are also great but still DKs are all around a bit better.
Also about warden damage from what I see others saying its not too good as dps. But at PVP stamina warden is pretty much the strongest atm, but DK is also good.

If youre asking what class is viable for PVP and PVE through, every class is good at both in 1 or a few roles just pick what you like most from their abilities/theme.

The Warden is a good allround class and nice for solo play. They lack for endgame group content though. Magicka Nightblade is a good choice both for solo play and ranged damage dealer in endgame content.

While generally doing more damage in organized groups, stamina classes lack survivability in solo play or weaker groups. Magblade has great self-heals and shield, while doing okay damage. In a good group, magblade has no issues doing vet dungeons and comparable things without healer. Compared to sorc, NB has a strong execute and a stealth skill for skipping parts of dungeons or getting through sections unseen.

Thank you for the reply. I think i am leaning more towards a tank build i have never really tanked before and itd be nice to give it a try. I started a MagDK tank but have had people telling me to buy the DLC because the Warden apparently makes a better tank that can hit like a truck as well. MagNB might be the class i run along with it.
