Tired of inferno staff. Is a warden stamina now good?

thalium

Only played magical and wanted to try stamina bow warden. Any thoughts?

Pure bow isn't in a great spot regardless of class, but I don't think there've been any recent changes which hurt Bow Warden specifically.

thalium

Thank you. Should I switch to two or one handed?

I don't have a strong opinion on 2-h/bow vs. dual wield/bow. They're pretty close in PvE, but different style.

Most frequently I see 2-h/bow.

2 handed/bow is amazing due to damage shield and really good dmg. this is the build i follow with alterations to fit my gameplay https://alcasthq.com/eso-solo-stamina-warden-build-pve/

My Redguard bear Warden all stamina uses dual weld/Bow and two-hand sword. The most fun character I've made in this game. A couple of fighters guild skills too.

I usually only play magicka characters, but my bow-bow stamden is pretty good. Indeed, he hits a little harder overall than my magicka wardens do, I think, mainly because:

• Stamina warden class skills do more damage than their magicka counterparts, at the cost of having less group utility.
• The Maelstrom bow's benefit is AoE.

Though my mains (both on EU and NA) are breton magplars, I have a bosmer stam warden with bow, almost one bar (DW only when things become really hard and I need more heal, but this is really infrequent by now at my lvl).

The "rotation" is simplicity in itself: sub assault, silver shards and bombard. The AOE is astounding, even if only in front, and really fun.

All medium and training (or divines with crit stone for more damage). I had a set of unfatomable darkness (bow and gems) that came out as very effective. Sellistrix or stormfist to complete.
