Returning Player - Viable 2H Stamblade Build for PVE?

Hi Folks, am a returning player on PS4 after a break about 2 years. Found the game has evolved nicely and the player base seems doing good.

I have tried the new warden class a bit but found his pet not as useful as I thought it would be. So I picked up my old stamblade which was only champion 10 last time. I am a bit lost about the updates and changes through out the time I have left so would like to seek some advise from the community.

I always like to use 2H over DW in any RPG game. Yes I know 2H is better for pvp, and DW for pve in ESO. In light of that, is there any build that can make a 2H stamblade at least viable in PVE?

Many thanks.

    I have a 2H stamward as it goes, don't use the bear anymore though, Meteor and Dawnbreaker.... my stamplar is DW using Blood craze and Steel tornado. You could easily swap those 2 for one of the cleave morphs and Executioner (reverse slash morph). Also Rally for heals.

    I use bow other bar, Poison injection and Volley.

    As you are a stamblade you can just slot class skills around those weapon skills, like Relentless focus, leeching strikes, power extraction, killers blade etc

    2H is viable although I can't personally pull the same figures on my warden as my stamplar....but that doesn't mean much considering all the variables. I prefer DW for damage but the feel of 2H is much more satisfying.

    2H does a lot of AOE damage with Forceful and seems to synergize nicely with Stamblade skills.

    Here's what I've been been doing when running with a 2H.
