Wood Elf player here. Should I go for stamina Arcanist or Necromancer?

WoWpackform

I find both classes interesting, but I want to know which class works better for a Bosmer?

The race you pick doesn’t affect gameplay unless your doing high end content, and even then it’s not that important

if you are new, Arcanist better
next patch Necro cant play because zos change they mech so cant run they class skill in manytime

For a Bosmer it is arguably better to be a Stamina based Nightblade, Warden or Sorcerer. Or be everything at once next patch!

I have the 'Bosmer Only' edition of ESO where you can only choose Bosmers (okay, that's a joke). Now, because Bosmer are so small, they are weak and fragile - therefore, my elf will only play as an archer or mage. No getting up close or trying to hit stuff with melee weapons for her! She is very effective as a mage when playing a Templar, Warden or Sorceress. She prefers playing as a Warden when using her bow. Another couple of nice things about Bosmer is that they are hard to hit because they are so small (okay, that's another joke) and they are undeniably Best in Slot for Cute (no joke!).

Arcanist Will always be usefull.

Necro...welll...

If you go necro you can resurrect the enemies that you just ate as a woodelf.

Arcanist, because ZOS broke Necro's main ability, and then stated it was intentional that youre unable to cast it.

Actually, @Veinblood1965, the claim is accurate. What @ZOS_GinaBruno said confirms the result is functioning exactly as intended under current rules. Here’s her quote again for clarity:

“What’s intended is there is a limitation of 5 summons or corpses of summons in PvP areas…”

That means: if you’re at the 5-object limit, then Blastbones won’t cast. The only “bug” is that the animation still plays. That’s what’s being fixed. The core issue—the skill failing to fire in PvP due to the cap—is not only not being fixed in U47, it’s confirmed to be by design.

So @CameraBeardThePirate’s summary is fair: a paid class’s primary skill is unusable in PvP, and the studio’s response is that this is how the system is supposed to work.

Calling that “disinformation” is a bit much. You may want to reread the thread—carefully—before telling others they’re wrong.

Did you even read the post you linked? Gina stated that Blastbones should not be summonable when at the cap, i.e., around 50% of the time, its intentional that you shouldn't be able to summon Blastbones.

I am right and that's all there is to it! Ok I reread the post and it is intentional...(bows head in shame). Apologies to CameraBeardThePirate. That does make the class even more difficult to play, it was already clunky to begin with.
