The more stamina may be better but is it really a huge difference?

Just curious.

On my Stamblade I never really notice a lot of extra DPS when I have 2-4 K more stam. Running Dubious with a HP glyph, I only have like 28K Stam right now.

But I do not notice a drastic drop. As a matter sometimes I do more, based on luck of course. So is this blown out of proportion? I mean in theory 2-4K more Stam is what? 1K - 1.5K more DPS?

Again, I just don't see the huge difference. Obviously if I can run blue food I will and get more stam cause it certainly makes you hit harder, but I don't feel the difference is night and day.

    The only things that are going to get you huge DPS increases are using and practicing a proper rotation, most of which require a certain amount of stamina.

    I'm pretty sure its closer to to 10 (10.46 is the number I'm finding) stamina equals 1 weapon damage, so you are exaggerating the impact anyway. Again, bumping your equivalent weapon damage by a couple hundred isn't going to hugely increase your DPS on its own. It needs to work through an efficient rotation.

    However, your stamina seems kinda low. There's a world of difference between my Breton Stam Sorc with 28k stam and my Imperial stam sorc with 38k stam when it comes to running harder content.

    I'm doing 57K on a 3million Dummy with my Khajiit Stamblade and about 53K on a 6 million.

    74 - 75K group parse on a 52mil dummy. It may be low, but it seems to be doing the job.

    That's fair. At my much lower level of DPS, the biggest difference came from practicing my rotation, not food or gear choices.

    Thanks. I appreciate your insight. I have been reading some guides that stress pushing stam so much and I'm like.. well dubious makes my life so much easier on my Khajiit and if it isn't going to plummet my DPS then...I'm not too concerned.
