I am not sure what class to use.

Vexylrei

I have tried the majority of the classes and I can't seem to get comfortable with any class. I've found that I seem to prefer the stamina route rather than magika, I would like a class that is able to survive well alone aswell as deal a reasonable amount of damage. Can anyone help? Thanks

Stamina sorcerers have great surviveability. Get Surge and morph it to Critical Surge, and use it before every fight. The heal you get from it is great. It uses magicka, but it's still effective for stamina characters. It increases your weapon damage by 20%, plus heals you with every critical strike.

Stamwardens are very good to use too on pve/pvp etc.

High surviveability and damage.

Thanks I'll give it a try
