DPS I need help with Stam/health balance

Erulissea · April 2017

OK, so I have a Stamplar Bosmer CP 520 who uses both spear and archery, as well as BoL for self heals. The thing is, I put all my points into Stamina, which is fine for the most part. However, in vWGT, vRoM, vCoS, and vICP, I tend to die rather quickly. This annoys me, and everyone else in the dungeon. So should I:
-Make a completely new armor set (Hundings) with gold Oko runes?
-Make no new pieces of armor and set Oko runes on some?
-Make a tankier armor set but have stamina runes?
-Have jewelry with health and ignore the rest of the armor?
-Reset my Attribute points?

I look forward to hearing your input.

Cheers.

Adding health is probably not the answer, neither is running BOL on a stamplar. It's a magic skill. As a stamplar, your best bet for self heals are vigor or repentance. You could also consider something like deadly cloak or evasion for more survivability.

Now you certainly need a baseline level of health. You probably want to get between 17-19k. Blue stam/magic food and undaunted passives should get you there, otherwise, I would put 5-10 attribute points into health and the rest stamina. If you dont have undaunted passives, I would go out on a limb and say perhaps hold off on DLC dungeons. Not because you need them to survive, but your experience in any vet dungeons is likely lacking.

You are describing the 4 hardest dungeons in the game. I think there is a better than average chance that you are missing deadly mechanics.
