Um I've asked this question in one of the recent poles in General Discussion Sections, but it was just a brief comment and no one responded, so I have to ask this question:
Are Breton magsorcs actually better than High Elves in PvP? Now, I've searched the forums and searched the web and heard different opinions about these two viable magicka dps races.
I am aware that Altmers are better than Bretons when it comes to PvE damage and this is especially true for high end contents when all your gears + skills are optimal. Bretons, on the other hand, have more versatility as they can be used as not only just damage dealers but also tanks and healers.
For PvP, I think I've heard more ppl say that Bretons have a slightly higher edge than Altmers. Is this actually true? Can anyone confirm this? I am currently running two magsorc damage characters on my account - one for PvP and one for PvE, both of which are Altmers. I've had enough money saved from my subscription crowns and was thinking about changing the PvP magsorc from Altmer to Breton (for diversity sake rather than actual PvP performance issue). But I really don't want to burn my Crowns to only later find out that the cost reduction and resistance passives on Bretons are actually worse than flat elemental damage increase of Altmers.
Can anyone share their insight on this issue?
