Wrobel mentioned that for stamina regen builds you go Redguard, for damage you go Khajiit. Then what do do you do with a Bosmer? It's like a crappy version of a Redguard since it has worst resource management, worse damage, and nothing to compensate. May I suggest that we give them a 5% increase to bow damage? That is suppose to be their niche after all.

    They already DO have increased Bow damage... just use Snipe from stealth.

    Also, Eric said they are supposed to be in-between Redguard and Khajiit, not equal to or better.

    They are only useful if you want to gank people from sneak in PvP and have some more sustain than Khajit . Nothing else . I haven't seen any Bosmer in end-game PvE too . They are pretty useless in my opinion . Even if they gave them 10% stamina , Redguard is still better in terms of sustain . Again , it is just for people who want to 1-shot people from sneak .

    So basically you're saying if you want to use a bow, you're forced to gank. Thanks for acknowledging the problem.

    Well Khajiit have the ability to gank from stealth too.

    I endgame PvE just fine on my nightblade bosmer. Good sustain, reasonable max health, excellent DPS.

    I'm currently running a Wood Elf NB through PvE endgame and she's a lot of fun to play.

    PS: This used to be my dedicated PvP character but i haven't been in Cyrodiil lately. Too many exploits for my taste.

    I look at it like this
    Pve dps = khajiit
    Pvp heavy armor = red guard
    Pvp medium armor = wood elf

    Unless you're a Stam sorc; then you go Orc

    Can you give some numbers ? What I understand from excellent DPS is 40-45k on Blood Spawn with no DPS beside you . Only tank and healer to buff .

    Going Bosmer with a Nightblade is just pointless because Siphoning Attacks . There is no good or bad sustain while playing Nightblade . Whatever you do , you always have the best sustain in the game . Considering sustain bonuses as a Nightblade will only hurt your DPS . If you have stamina problems as a Nightblade , you should work on your animation cancelling . Khajit is best PvE DPS now and Redguard is best sustain for PvP . Bosmer is just a ganker and weaker version of Redguard .

    Well, I've said it in a couple if other threads but if they want to keep redguards and khajiit where they're at, and bosmer "in the middle" give us magic regen as well. Not the 21% but 9 or 10%. Dark elves get max magicka and stamina added and are considered great if you want to flip, and currently are the "best" in between both sides. Let them have the base stats, and us the sustain(regen). Stamina regen DOES help magicka builds, and magicka regen would help stamina builds. Just my thoughts anyway.

    Siphoning Attacks does not find its place in the DPS builds.

    Can you write what you use while doing DPS please ? Just trying to understand what you use instead of Siphoning Attacks .
