    5 Orgarams Scales
    5 Briarheart/VO/Eternal Hunt
    2 Troll King/Sellistrix

    Is where Ibwould go with it. Damage is still there much more tanky and if you use sellistrix extra stamina and built in stun.

    Impressive stat sheet tho.

    It's the wrong set up for a stam sorc. They need high stam. .very high stam. Look at your tool tips if you run 42k stam and 3500 weapon damage and 100 in mighty and 87 in therm. Much much higher than just dumping it into weapon damage.

    My rend tool tip goes for 69k self buffed using just Tbs, VO and Krags and vma daggers. Meaning that *** is hitting for well over 120k empowered+crits+trap giving me a tasty 80ks worth of heals over 16s. ...who needs heavy armor at all with that+surge, thirst and blood craze, nigh invincible with 21k res.

    Just not needed at all.

    Wow. So this post is specifically about a heavy armored tank with sword and board...
    ...and you hijack it- talking about a medium armored build with dual wielding swords?

    That's the equivalent of a light armored magsorc chiming in about how they can pull higher dps with a destro staff...

    No sh*t, Sherlock.

    This post is about what a tank can do.

    Why tank it? It's not tanking is it. Tanking is holding aggro for a group to mince something down. Solo "tanking" isn't tanking, it's just going slow. Also you need to try it out and supply proof of build quality by taking on the mad ogre and wrothgar titan. Good luck standing in the middle of those suicide scamps.

    People have just been making the point that you can defeat all the worst bosses much faster with a pure DPS build because stamsorcs are so incredibly resilient. No need to take offense.

    Yes but why do they link in builds with 5 VO etc?
    We all know this already and as the OP said it's a heavy armoured build not medium so it's annoying them hijacking thread writing info for DPS builds when this isn't a DPS build.

    Currently, I can sustain anywhere from 30-40k dps, using my heavy/wrecking blow combo, aside from using the rearming trap..

    I will eat my shoe if you can sustain 30k DPS using heavy attack / wrecking blow self buffed with Dreugh King Slayer set.

    The build is a "World Boss Buster" and he made it clear that this is the intended purpose of it. It may make you angry that a medium armor build is faster and more efficient at killing world bosses, but that's why people are saying it.

    Yeah that's why I was trying to get some actual numbers out of it. I'd guess he's talking about 30-40k DPS against a mammoth or giant... in that case we could show him builds that do 119k DPS against that kind of easy opponent.

    L2read.

    It's a tank build based on being self sufficient and aiding with healing as always sour eggs like you don't let people come up with different concepts.

    People shouldn't be able to tank, heal and dps.

    Stamsorcs need a lot of nerfs

    Uh... all classes can do this. This is what happens when you make a build that's not a pure "meta" tank. You can actually do decent damage and self-heals as a solo build. You won't be running vet trials any time soon- but you can have a ton of fun in the mean time!

    Here's some solo tank builds that have high DPS, high heals, and high survivability:

    Magic DK:
    5 Akaviri Dragonguard, 5 Silks of the Sun, 2 Valkyn. The DPS and heals from Burning Embers, Flame Lash, and Draw Essence are fantastic!

    Stam DK:
    5 Black Rose, 5 Knight's Errant, 2 Tremorscale. High DPS and Heals EVERY TIME you hit Puncture.

    Magic NB:
    5 Leeching Plate, 5 Bahraha, 2 Malubeth. High DPS and Heals just by placing Refreshing Path or Sap Essence.

    Stam NB:
    You're screwed.

    Magic Templar:
    5 Soulshine, 5 Spellpower Cure, 2 Chokethorn. Soulshine increases not only damage of your puncturing sweep- but the heals from it as well.

    Stam Templar:
    You can pretty much use the same build as my Khajiit- but I'd trade Molag Kena for Sentinel of Rkugamz.

    Stam NB sure can't heal much but got the damage.

    I can do most on my Maelstrom build stam sorc.

    I can do them all with incredible ease on my saptank.
