1.6- What are the new stat caps?

Heya! I've been trying to figure out what the right "values" are that I should aim to reach when gearing my character. I.e. when I'm making my Sorc, what is the magicka value that I should reach to have sufficient magicka? Stuff like that. If you can help me figure out what those would be for PvE and PvP I'd greatly appreciate it; in 1.5 I always tried to make my magicka build have about 2700 Health, 2400 Magicka, and 1700 Stamina. What should those be for 1.6? What is good Stamina/Magicka regen now? Much appreciated

Wolfenbelle✭✭✭✭✭Good question, and I wish I had a good answer. Possibly 1.6 is too new yet to have solid values. But in general, ZOS first nerfed a lot of values in the game, including primary stats. Then they inflated most numbers by a factor of 10. So if you add a zero to 2700, 2400, and 1700, you'd theoretically want 27000 health, 24000 magicka, and 17000 stamina. But due to the across-the-board nerfs, I'm not sure it's possible to actually reach such numbers. Might be, but just don't know yet. Maybe other players will respond with better info.0 -
Sublime✭✭✭✭It really depends on what you want to do, what playstyle, class and game mode. I tried to do the vet pledge with my PvP build and got oneshot about 327987 times. In PvE I think you need about 20k, while in PvP you can do whatever you want as Long as it fits your playstyle.EU | For those who want to improve their behaviour: the science behind shaping player bahaviour (presentation)0 -

There are many things that got multiplied by less than 10. Health/magicka/stam all got inflated by a factor of 7-8 from what I've seen. Plenty of spreadsheets and such that have been done on the PTS forums before this patch ever went live.

✭✭✭✭✭For pvp, my sorc has a pretty good statsetup atm.
30k magicka
20k health
13k stam (using arena set)
Its a place to start, so far working well, can adjust things as we learn the new meta. But its a good staring pt.

✭Health Metas are roughly as follows:- Vet Dungeons/DSA: DPS/Healer = 18-19K & Tanks (Hard capped) 25K.
- AA/HR/VDSA: Basically the same, add 1K if you want to feel safer.
- SO: DPS/Healer = 19-21K & Tanks (Hard capped) 25-28K.
- PvP: 25K is perfectly fine and is actually hard to get that low using VR10 Epic food if you have points in Health.
- Soloing/Grinding: Health is less of an issue, Stamina for Blocking is much higher priority.
Armor/Resistance:- PvE: DPS/Healer = As high as you can get it & Tanks = Hard Capped (32,500) with Minor/Major Wards up.
- PvP: As high as you can get it, no seriously, if you aren't able to spam Shields you NEED high Armor/Resist.
