Guys i feel like im dragging my teammates in dungeons with my sorcerer so i am a VR1 emperial sorceree so i would like to know how to make a good stamina sorcerer class
Hope you can help me thanka!

Try this.

Stam sorc is plenty viable.

Personally I like running 2H/DW (swapping for bow if needed). You can make a strong build using just crafted sets as well - Hunding's Rage 5pc and Night's Mother's Gaze for the rest. (Make one of your DW weapons hunding's and the 2H hunding's and the other DW weapon NMG, that way when you weapon swap you'll still have the Hunding's 5pc). Use Shadowwalker jewelry or the new Agility jewelry.

Remember if you keep things like Evil Hunter on your bar (it gives you a passive crit bonus) and Flawless Dawnbreaker as well (it gives you a weapon damage bonus). Trying to keep a sorc power or two on your bar will give you a weapon power bonus as well with the change they made to sorc passives. I like using both Rally and Crit Surge, but if you have a solid healer, you can probably just stick with Crit surge. When fighting, keep crit surge and lightning form up, use Wrecking Blow for single target damage if you can get in melee range safely and use whirlwind for AoEing down mobs. (If you can open up caltrops from Alliance War line, that will help your DPS a lot as well - just be careful as you will aggro everything with them).

That's some quick and easy basics, but there is much more fine tuning you can do, especially to fit your playstyle. Out of all my stam builds (1 for each class) stam sorc is my favorite and probably almost as strong as a stam DK. Just remember most stam builds do the same thing - use weapon skills and then use class skills to flesh that out (except stam templars - they can get away with using jabs as a main attack). So you are looking at how your class skills can help your weapon skills do damage - snaring enemies will help your DW attacks do more damage for example and sorcs have a few ways to CC/snare. Lightning form and crit surge both protect and add to damage, etc.

Thanks you guys I will give it a try your ideas cause I feel like I'm sucking right now! I'm going to work right now so I will do IG when I get back

Not really since Bound armaments gives stamina pool buf, thundering presence scales of stamina/weapon dmg and costs stamina, and exper mage passive gives not only spell dmg but weapon too. Now stam sorc are competive with stam NB with DPS and has better survival.

So you basically have 3 skills you can use as a Stamina Sorcerer? That does not sound like a Sorcerer to me. I mean maybe you can make the build work, but it would be so much better to run a Sorcerer Magic based. As they should be.

The issue I have with a Stamina Sorcerer in this game is, if you go all in on Stamina, then the spells that scale from Magic do reduced damage. Coupled with using up your moving around resources for combat leaves a depleted pool. It has been a while since I looked at all the morphs in the Sorcerer line but I recall that most of the good morphs are magic based, if there is even a choice.

However since it sounds like your not really using many of the Sorcerer skills, then maybe none of this matters.

@Nestor are you seriously suggesting that stamina sorcerer builds should not exist? How about magicka Nightblades or Dragonknights? Should they exist? I mean they are going against stereotype as well. So with that out the way, I agree that stamina sorcerers still lack good active skills - but the passives aren't too bad now.

As for how to build? Well personally I have to build with more defensive skills than if I were a different dps class because the passives don't provide any defence, some offense, regeneration and cost reduction but no defence. That means I always run some defences (Thundering Presence, Evasion, or Bone shield), normally some healing (Rally, or Surge), and then it depends on what I want to do ... Brawler for multimobs, Wb for single. Maybe Bombard, maybe Tornado. Generally I use 2 sorcerer skills and the rest non class.
Good luck.

The whole thing about being able to do more Jumping Jacks meaning you can cast more powerful spells is kind of ironic to me.

However, I have never said that something like this should not exist in a game, even if I would not play the character type, others would*. I don't care what role or playstyle others do. As long as you have success and or fun, cool. But, in this game, a Stamina Sorcerer is an oxymoron as most Sorcerer class skills are based on or scale from magic. It has been a issue in this game for a long time. That is what I am talking about here. You are much better off being magic based if you are a Sorcerer in this game. Can a Stamina Sorcerer be made to work in this game, sure, but your not really being a Sorcerer, more a Battle Mage where the magic is a support mechanism. However the DK can be more of a Battle Mage or Spellsword archetype than a Sorcerer can be in this game.



*That being said, I play my Imperial DK more like a Stamina Character, even though he is all in on Magic and wears heavy armor. , playing an ironic or iconclast character is not something I have a philosophical issue against.

LOL. Don't you know that most of ANY class skills are based on and scale from magic?

PS: btw one of the most effective DK DPS build is magika build but not stamina.

All this is pretty interesting you guys have a good way to express your opinions but either a character work or not is except to the guy who is building it! Right now, i did make my stamina sorcerer and the mother f hit hard and the critical I do is 49% so most of the time im healing myself! Actually is pretty good so far i just needed some good armor and weapons

I tried a Stamina DK back with 1.6 and soon went back to Magic. The whole idea of using up your resource pool for combat by moving around does not work for me. I have yet to put my NB back into Magic, but the Stamina Experiment with him has failed. He has been parked in Craglorn for a couple of months now.

That only tells that stamina playstyle isn't yours. As NB has great stamina builds even after patch (and still better for DPS then magika). So if you've failed stamina experiment with NB how can you judge stamina build on sorcs?

I don't know, I've never copied builds. But I experiment a lot with differen classes/builds. It's boring to me to use one character all the time.
