    Race doesn't matter much in magicka, they all have comparable set of bonuses. (i mean between magicka races)

    I have changed all my characters into Dunmers (1 for each class). I can swap between stamina/magicka builds and still reach top DPS. I call it being time efficient. Best update ever and screw the variety xD

    By 'work' what do you mean?

    Min max PvE DPS?
    Min max PvE Dummy cheese?
    PvP?

    What?

    As without the context my answer after playing for 30 mins is Hell yeah.

    I just noticed your name. I saw Lucifer Morningstar in PVP a few days ago! lol
    Want to enjoy the game more? Try both PvP (crybabies) and PvE (carebears). You'll get a better perspective on everyone's opinion.

    Most tests indicate your dps is 199-200 dps higher as altmer, an Altmer would do perhaps 5K more than an bosmer or orc magsorc, this on an 60K raid parse, if your dps is 30K that would be 2.5K something.
    Obviously Dunmer will also work very well for stamina so you can switch if mag sorc is nerfed more or you are bored.

    Yeah Dark Elf is fine, probably slightly better than it was before the update. I definitely would not change to Altmer, you would only gain about 0.2% more damage (100 damage on a 50k parse), and would be giving up Fire Resistance, a good amount of stamina, and versatility.

    I believe Breton makes the best sorcerer in Wrathstone, since mag sorc has pretty bad sustain. But changing to Breton would still only add 1-2% to your damage at most (and there are situations where Dunmer outperforms Breton).
