Asylum Sanctorium should be stamina friendly just like Sunspire

Edelner

Why are dragons meele stamina friendly in Sunspire but dragon in Asylum Sanctorium wasn't changed to be also friendly for stamina character? I think ot should be change.

Aren't the highest parsing As+2 classes Stamblades actually? At least it was like this in Harrowstorm.

Yup, stamblade followed by stamnecro. Nightblades, stam and mag, will parse about the same. They both get easy access and high uptimes of major berserk so pretty hard to beat.

It's not really melee friendly because you would need extremely tight group coordination although it's possible but yeah BoBo builds are the way to go.

The main reasons why it doesn't happen much is because people have a hard time surviving without a shield (although medium armor ability granting major evasion helps a lot) and you deal about the same damage with a magblade so why bother? Also, people will think you're bait if you bring a stam but I'd like to stam in there someday.

Why should every trial be stack and burn? I applaud ZOS for having trials that require differing strategies, as opposed to the same boss with same mechanics, just reskinned.

Because different trials have different mechanics.

Sunspire is broken down into 3 stages per boss where you just stack and nuke. Even then Magicka is just better.

AS has a lot of mechanics and it is more efficient to play ranged characters than can continue to deal damage while doing mechanics.

Magicka are better at range than stamina. So they end up being more efficient in AS.

I just wish stam was worth running on console but with out quick gear swaps stam needs to pull far ahead. vAS is probably the best trial for stam on console but still not worth it unless you can do it without killing minis.
