So I leveled up and ground out two stam characters during the last two events and I need some input

Both are Redguards.
One is a Sorcerer, the other is a Dragon Knight.
Which one would be better/easier to use for PvE and PvP?
Which race would be more "ideal"? Or should I stick with Redguard for both? Respeccing and race changes won't be an issue because I have a surplus of tokens so I can experiment.

better, or easier to use is really going to be a lot of how the methods of play mesh with your personal playstyle

That said, stamsorc is in a very good place right now, many consider it OP. I personally don't get along with my stamDK at all so I don't play it much. I find the stamsorc playstyle to be very fun, not too hard to get into but still has some higher end nuances allowing for room to work and not easily master it.

Redguard is a good choice, according to many the best, if you're going for pure minmaxed stats.

Redguard is definately a very good choice

Another Option would be: Imperial (12% Health 10% Stamina + heal for melee hits such as light attack)
Khajiit ( No health Bonus, no Stamina Bonus BUT 8% weapon crit)

These are the best 3, but IMO redguard shines out the others.

So the Stamina Dragonknight - is the most powerful Single Target class ingame at the Moment.
Due to his own DoT abilities from the Dragonknight skill lines, he is very powerful compared to a Stamina Sorcerer.
The other side is, he is like a glass cannon, as he got only vigor as self heal and low resistances (about 11-13k).

The Stamina Sorcerer is honestly a true "Rambo"-Class
HeE is a bit weaker (in terms of damage output for endgame content) than the Stamina Dragonknight, but is honestly like a Tank if you know how to Play it right.
i sometimes do vet dungeons solo with him, just because its so easy with him.

He heals himself with critical hits and literally cant die as Long as you attack, also you reach about 16-19k Resistances (50% more than with the dragonknight)

Its a very mobile class aswell, due to the super nice class abilities.
For beginners i recommend playing the Stamina Sorcerer, as its really easy to get a hang of it.

Once your more experienced with all the Stuff in Dungeons, Trials and so on, you can start your Dragonknight. If you dont know specific mechanincs or several hits from Bosses, you will die very fast.

The Stamina Sorcerer is just more forgiving for Little mistakes :-)
