Help With PVP StamSorc Build CP573

I really really need help with learning how to obtain success in PVP. It took me a LOOOOOONG time just to unlock Caltrops which finally happened today (havent gotten to Razor Caltrops yet).

I have yet to complete any vet dungeons so I have ZERO monster sets. Think I only accidentally completed two low level dungeons because I have the Llambris twin trophy and the alligator faced one in my trophy collection. I do have a few monster shoulders but no complete sets. Also, I have an alt who is maxed on all crafting and trait research on all items (except for jewelry) , so any level pots, food, enchants, traits, etc. that you suggest can be added to improve this build.

Also, with the current bar setup, I was only able to get max 9900 dps on target dummy (no food/pots were used). How the heck do some people get 2x to 3x as much dps?

Please help. What would you recommend to improve the PVP build from slightly below terrible to competent? Thanks.

    Hunding's is fine on body...for the the jewels and weapons you could go for spriggans(should be in guild stores or try zone chat in bangkorai). When you're able to do vet dungeons you could farm darkshade caverns for the strength of the automaton set. If you have kra'gh shoulders you could 1pc that for now too

    Testing your DPS on a dummy is a bad way to determine your build's effectiveness in PvP so I wouldn't worry about that. Your build definitely needs improvement though--making sure all your body pieces are in impen trait would be a good start.

    I recently started running automaton (medium) on the body, with Tremorscale shoulders and head (oooo didn’t see that coming did ya) and prisoners rags on back bar and jewelry.

    Front bar is Two handed

    Back bar is snb, I run ransack on this bar to proc tremorscale

    Max stats are low because I don’t have jewelry crafting which means my prisoner’s rags jewelry is all blue and 1 robust + 2 arcane, yikes. It still works though, got a 1v3 first day using it, not bad for my skill level.

    @ me if you want to know more details like skills and enchants etc.

    I am not sure if your build is good or not but I want to share with you my experience with Stam Sorc. I sucked for a long while and couldn't do much damage or survive in pvp until one day I had enough general practice + I tried a new set that worked well with my play style and skills on the bar. I tried a lot to make bow+2h work but in the end what worked for me was snb + 2h. I started by following other's build but once I found the playstyle that I liked and understood and found the items to accompany it, it clicked. What I am trying to say is while other people can give you advice on the build and skill at the end of it what you might need to succeed better in PVP only you can find. The right combination of skills and set that works for you might seem mediocre to others but only you will be able to make it work. So I guess keep experimenting till it clicks.

    Im running toothrow, 2 jewelry and 3 body, 7th legion sword and shield front bar, masters bow back bar. It's a fun small group build. Got a video of u wanna see it, i just set it a few days ago to get away from the 2h bleed meta. It's done well.

    Ok, I have a couple of concerns with this build immediately.

    1) You don't have any way to cc another player. I'd recommend adding streak to one bar. You need a way to stun a player besides dawnbreaker.
    2) Unless I missed a change, you do not need hurricane on both bars.
    3) I'm not a fan of endless hail in PvP. I'm not bothered at all when I see an opponent cast it so I haven't even been tempted to run a build with it.
    4) I like dark deal even with cast time.
    5) As others have mentioned, you really do need impen over divines.

    Basically, this a build where your dps won't matter. It's extremely light on survival so unless you can one shot, the other player will always have the upper hand.

    Thanks for all the responses guys. Keep the advice coming.

    Looks like my build is better suited for PvE. Think I have enough material to create new 160 gold gear with impen trait so I'll get on that. Also, will make use of my master crafter's enchanting ability to create some 160 lvl glyphs.

    I’d advise against golding out your gear. The return is not great especially at the cost, and if you are just trying out builds.

    But always gold out your weapons. Best return for gold quality by a long shot.
