@susmitds, thanks for the effort put into those tests and sharing your results!

Currently on live, you can sustain on a Khajiit stamblade running blue food provided you ensure Leeching Strikes is not recast too early and Relentless Focus has 100% uptime.

The fact you had Camoran Throne on for your tests and still found sustain problematic is worrying to say the least. It clearly shows that with the enchant nerf Khajiit sustain has hit rock bottom and the proposed 75 stamina regen is a complete joke.

I get it that ZOS want to make Khajiits viable as magDDs and clearly they've succeeded with that. However, the new 3-regen passive just does not make any sense considering the game does not reward hybrid builds. In my opinion, the faulty logic behind it is the reason why you faced sustain issues on both Khajiit magblade and stamblade.

Let's be honest, nobody's gonna pick a race that in a sub-optimal group will have to heavy weave pre-Summerset style if there are two and three other races with better sustain available for magDDs and stamDDs, respectively. The 3-regen passive needs to be reworked to reflect that you don't need sustain for both resources at the same time since the use of the other/secondary resource is limited and situational (e.g. casting Shadow Image or Shadow Cloak in PvP on stamblades). If ZOS are determined to stick to their mathematical race-power formula, they should change that passive so that it grants 150 magicka or stamina recovery depending on which resource is higher. We already have two abilities that people rely on extensively to help with sustain that work like this (i.e. Shards and Orbs) why can't a racial passive work the same way? That should resolve the sustain issue for both magicka and stamina builds.

Please look at this!!

Can you please update the original post to clarify if this testing was done on PTS (new racial passives) or Live (old passives)?
Thanks!

@susmitds
Also, your original post says that you are using a "Standard rotation" - can you please clarify though which skills or whose build you are using? (Link if an external skills build). I'm assuming that you have ALL weapon, racial, and class skill passives enabled. Thanks!

Rip stamina dps, no point in bringing them any more since mag hits higher and easier to survive.
