Is there a recommended build to vMSA?

I finished it once in my VR 16 stam NB some time ago and took a long time, but I didn't get any good drops and been thinking of trying again.
Before starting, I was thinking if there's any build that, if player correctly, is more appropiate.

I know, depends on how you play it, etc. But let's assume we know well the mechanics, not the elite club, but a good player. I'm more versed in NBs, but sorcerer am OK too.
Not very familiar with Templars and DKs, but can start leveling them and when DB comes out, a level 50 will be as good as.

Any suggestions which you thinks works better??

    I find it easiet on my sorc, but with the changes to shield times I don't know how viable it will be. Second easiest is my magblade I do resto desto build double bar inner light, desto bar- crippling grasp, swallow soul, Sao essence, impale, and meteor. Resto- harness magicka, siphoning attacks, healing ward, merciless resolve. Find its not hard with this set up

    You should not need seducer with siphoning attacks. I'd recommend spell power cure or Julianus. (twice born star would probably be good aswell, but never tested that set on my nb). For the monster set I'd say either kena or nerien'eth.

    I'm more of a DK player, but w/e, idea remains the same. You want to go for damage, especially considering how cheap Swallow Soul is, Julianos x5, Willpower x3 is probably best. You have 3 pieces remaining, so good ol' Kena x1 / Torug x2. If you chunk those standard magicka pots, you should have no magicka issues at all. All should be with Divines trait and Thief mundus (because Mr. Maths says it's the best for damage, and still works for healing).

    More damage means more healing from Swallow and Sap, also, you can burn some bosses and avoid otherwise extremely annoying fight (Round 4 boss burn, round 8, boss can be done in 2 rows, Crematorial guards need to be taken down ASAP, etc etc).
    You should not need seducer with siphoning attacks. I'd recommend spell power cure or Julianus. (twice born star would probably be good aswell, but never tested that set on my nb). For the monster set I'd say either kena or nerien'eth.

    I wouldn't recommend SPC, since it's more of a group setup, TBS is absolutely valid (Thief / Shadow). And flexible monsters, doesn't matter which one you pick.

    EDIT: Moar details.

    Hey guys, got stormproof on my sorc, but am trying on my mag blade now.

    She is a bosmer, because I wanted the stamina passives to help with all the dodge rolling in the last stage. But....I can't beat the first boss? Lol.

    I'm using Taurus dual wield and maelstrom resto, 5 piece julie, 3x wp kena 2 piece, all gold divines.

    Dual wield is set up as swallow, concealed, execute, inner light, and lotus fan

    Resto is harness, hw, refreshing path, repairs mark, and merciless resolve.

    Why am I struggling so much? What's a good rotation to use? I just get annihilated without double slotting a ward which seems like a dps loss.

    Lmk what I can do! My sorc used to three man wgt, now I found myself doing 1/2 as much dps and dying twice as much...so I want this nb to be my main.

    Thanks!

    And PLEASE give me a good champ point distribution. I have 460.

    All best,
    Turboyagi

    get rid of the dual wield and go destro so you can weave medium attacks with swallow, also you don't need concealed weapon or lotus fan put crippling grasp and sap as an aoe on the destro bar

    A bit off topic but do people run vamp in vma? My stamplar is vamp and I was thinking of trying him in there but I can see the crematotial guards especially being a problem. Max cp but still wondering about it and if everyone ditched the recovery so as to not take so much fire damage.

    Thanks.

    @Whiteout55 , currently running vMA with my Dunmer StamSorc. He's a vamp but I'm better running in stage 1 with no fire weakness.
    I'm no expert and just got to the 5th area. let's see how it goes from there
