Don't be Imperial for magic. Just re-roll as another class if you want to be better.
hm then perhaps I will wait until race-reroll happens
stay stam for Cyro for now, even though I hardly play on the NB now

I mean you could also just spec into it for a week and see if you like it. The point I was making is that most people dont have everything leveled, so re-rolling, especially now that we have XP pots and training gear, takes about as long as leveling all the skills on an old toon.

My Breton has over 45K max magicka and 3125 spell damage. (unbuffed spell damage and out of stealth, though that max magicka is with purple food)
What is a good gear setup for a caster magNB for pvp. Probably going to run destro/resto

12K+ concealed blades unbuffed.
At the cost of pretty bad regen (sub 1K for each), Its easy to make up the loss of resources with siphoning attacks though tbh.
I wouldn't use Imperial for Mageblade though tbh.
Mageblade hits even harder than it used too as well since everyone is taking CP out of resisting magic damage and instead are stacking it into resist physical damage and dot damage.
Its very much so a extremely high risk for a high reward kinda class now though, a lot more than stamblade nowadays.
I'd recommend using destro/resto over dual wield/resto if you have never played Magicka NB before.
Hey guys, can anyone here gimme a help pls?
I really really like the DW/RESTO or DES build, and im lvling a nb right now to start testing it but i have a mayor issue here.
How do you make your waves? light weave, heavy weave? with the dual sword? with the resto staff?
I mean, lets said im with dw/resto and i just got low magicka, i need to make some weapons weaves to recover, should i stay on dw and get my recovery do the job? or should i swap and weave with the resto? it feels so bad weaving with the resto XD.
Any tips?

I hate to say it, but I agree. If you want to play magic, re-roll a dunmer. Altmer might be a touch better now, but it wont be next patch if the changes hold up. Dunmer is prob better for PVP as well.
That being said, you can certainly make it work on an Imperial. The extra health and stam is really nice in PVP, but in group dungeons you will pull less DPS than a High Elf or Dark Elf no matter what you do.
There is nothing fancy about making the switch. Put all your points into Magic, take the magic morphs of all your skills, make sure you level Light armor, Resto, Destro and Duel Wield.
In PVP, I Run DW/Resto. In PVE, I run Destro/DW.
Important class skills: Concealed Weapon, lotus fan, cloak, impale, Mass Hysteria, Funnel health, Crippling Grasp, merciless resolve, siphoning attacks, refreshing/twisting path, sap essence, veil of blades, sould harvest, soul tether.
Other skills worth leveling: Meteor, inner light, force pulse, elemental blockade, harness magic, healing ward, rapid regen, rapid maneuvers, prox det.
Sure I missed a few. If these arent leveled, refer to the first statement. You can re-roll as fast as you can level these skills and skill lines. Magic NB is a cakewalk to level with. You can Funnel Health the whole game to death until you get sap essence then you just do the same thing but against multiple targets.
