How do I get stamina with my magSorc tank?

So the title pretty much says it all. I had a very viable build of Sorc tank, it was really cool build before the latest patch for both PvE and PvP.
In PvE the build was relying on luminous shards to get stamina back for shield blocking and taunting.
With latest update this build fell between chairs. Tanking with ice staff only is not nearly viable yet (the first boss at vICP will drill you a new one pretty fast with your own ice staff) while tanking with shield I simply run out of resources and can't find any way to get a stamina burst besides pots.
I can't get it, ZoS wanted classes diversity but the way I see it they are simply pushing us more and more towards very specific builds.
Overall the fighting with that build became very complicated, as I need all the time to keep focus on resources. It's not fun anymore, it's like working. I'm casual player and play games for recreational purpose only. I don't need you to push me to struggle with your game, making it harder and harder on me with every patch.
After a year of playing I was actually thinking to finally sub for eso+ and purchase Morrowind after launch. My first day into new ESO everything was ruined in the first dungeon I made.
Needless to say there was a new bug where the door didn't open up after the boss was dead in vICP. It was like a sign from above to sum it up.

makreth✭✭✭✭✭Luminous shards now restore both resources (with half the amount on your lowest) so that's a good one for tanks. I think hybrid tanks are kinda butchered with this patch but stamina are still viable.0 -

✭✭✭✭I used to run a magsorc tank, and what I found was that judicious application of wards allows for heavy attacking--you really only need to block the CCs and oneshots. Using undaunted taunt and elemental drain instead of Puncture helped on stamina sustain, too--but doesn't debuff the boss for stamina folks.
It was never the best tank, but could clear all vet dungeons no problem.Thrice Empress, Forever Scrub0 -
