There are literally boss mechanics that require you to be a mag sorc for soloing.. f.e. you can't solo the first vWGT fight with anything else, as the fight will just reset without a pet. (Or is there any possibility to avoid the cell that I missed?)

auto pick lock
2ns boss kite and nuke
3rd boss drop buffs and nuke, epower rend on bluephases
Kena just nuke

This thread is kind of confusing, but maybe I'm just reading too much into it. From what I gathered is the OP is asking what class "looks" the best and not what class or toon is the best to use.. yeah?! If what looks the best, since I'm a guy, any female toons (except the lizard and kitty ones) looks the best, even while grinding away on those high hp adds and bosses in those higher end PvE contents. If what class/toon is better than others to use while doing vet contents, I prefer a stam toon where you can balance hp and stam and still get good dps. I do have a MagSorc, and yes, its Conjured Ward and damage shield is sick, and you can literally boost your majicka pool into the 40s and 50K, I just don't like the light armor sets.

I guess I'm just the black sheep of ESO. I fair just fine with my HA-based StamDK, StamPlar or StamBlade. With my stam toons, I don't die much or at all going sololy against world bosses or even those with 5 mils or more hp. I still do with my MagSorc, even though it has 44K majicka pool. I'm not bashing on MagSorc.. I like it., but I just like getting in close and personal thrashing on the target, roll, block and then going back in to pommel them. To each its own, I say..

I've solod vwgt and vcoa2 on stam templar, I do vmsa on it 2-3x daily with 11.3k hp. It'a a solid class. Maybe magsorc is better, but for stam I'd say templar bar none.

@Ep1kMalware, impressive feats.. as others are also capable, but.. how did you get through Dranos when he throws that cripple on you? Ideally, on normal, there is a split second when, if you time it right, you can roll out just before he strike that killing blow. However, on vet, that is where I normally have trouble when soloing. I either can roll out, but before I can Vigor or throw up my shield, I get pommeled by the other adds, or it just seem harder to roll out in vet. He is the hardest fight for me. For vWGT, that Inhibitor is brutal when soloing. I like the StamPlar as well. I initially made a Breton StamPlar and realize the BoL is crap for that toon. I then I created a Nord and Imperial StamPlar and the BoL are good for these toons. I was soling world bosses at scrub level 5 with the Nord and Imperial ones. Ha ha. So, BoL was nerfed to crap for the Breton toon, amongst other abilities for Templars, in general.. I see. *beep* *beep*
