What you do with your warden ?

I experiment with mine incessantly.

I have two, actually, one is a Nord stamina warden and one an Argonian magicka warden.

The nord keeps getting kicked between DPS and tanking style builds primarily for PvP. Going one way leaves him with terrible survivability, going the other no ability to kill things(not a half bad duelist in a true 1v1 though, it'll outlast almost anything built for damage output) but he can't really die unless I decide to hold back a raid group for ten seconds while everybody else gets in the door at Chalman. I think there's a happy medium somewhere, so I'll keep looking.

With the Argonian.....he's great for some PvP stuff. The vast majority of stam players are still pretty sure they can summersault around like it's a circus, and birds teach them the error of their ways. AE healing output is extremely high, which is great in keeps, both offense and defense. I'd hoped for greater versatility, but in the end got another character that begs to be played as a mostly dedicated healer, similar to how the templar tends to wind up.

Still very slowly working through Morrowind, but have to do it in small doses because ESO's version of Morrowind (washed in hot and shrunk badly in the dryer) drives me buggy and so then I have to go re-fire up actual Morrowind for a while.

An alt or two planned for later... Wanna give the Bear cop buddy duo thing a try at least once.

I have two Warden characters. One is a healer and serves as my crafter. The other is an archer (simply because I have always enjoyed playing bow-wielding characters). Both are played very casually in PvE, and both fulfill certain RP functions.

I had high hopes for the Warden prior to launch, and I do like the class, but I haven't quite fallen for it in the way I had hoped. Regardless, i'm happy to persevere and see what might happen to them in the future.

My Wardens are used both PvE and PvP. It's a fun class to play if you don't look for 40k+ DPS as mag char.

My Warden got shelved and rarely gets played

I only play PVE. I leveled two wardens, an Argonian (to be a healer) and an Orc (to be a tank).

When done, I found that the warden can heal okay, but lacks utility compared to my templar main healer (no shards, ritual, repentance, BoL, PotL, ...) and the heal skills they do have don't make up for it.

I also found that the warden tank lacks utility compared to my DK main tank (no chains, no talons, ...) and the class tanking skills don't make up for it.

So I tried them as DDs. Magwarden DD is abysmal. Stamwarden DD is okay, but quite the same playstyle as my other stam DDs with less DPS. So why bother.

I even tried the dual bow stamwarden build with max gear on the PTS: Result is underwhelming.

So yeah, the Warden is a jack-of-all-trades, master-of-nothing. They can do everything, but they can't do anything well. Really a pity.

I mostly play my healer Warden in spontaneous vet trials at 4am, usually because my actual healers are all in the weekly already or because I want be be annoying.

My warden is a PVE tank for veteran content and I love it. Planning to use it more for vettrials. Can't wait for the next big update to be able to spam Frozen Device portal three times :P

My Warden is a casual alt

Almost all of my characters are "casual alts", but it currently gets the most play. I use my warden in any place I would also use my sorcerer.

Lord_Etrigan · September 2017

Wardens are there to bring an Altmer Sorcerer his wine and to fetch his shoes, failing to do so will result in the said Altmer to unleash a Mages Wrath on the Warden in question!

My Warden is a casual alt

Still deciding which monster helm to use for my warden: Ilambris or Skoria. I use destro staff with shock enchantment (thus I proc Ilambris) and use AOE abilities (thus I proc Skoria). The problem is deciding which one should I keep. Both have their pros and cons depending of the situation (PVE and PVP).

I was thinking Velidreth but did not like the changes they did to that monster helm specially when it require me to get close to the enemies.

I have a couple of wardens, they're leveling up through PvE in the usual way. They're doing crafting as they go.

Casual PVP alt that I play once in a blue moon :P

My Warden is a PVPer only

Both my Mag and Stam Wardens are a PVP build only at this time,

I feel like no one really tries anything out with the Warden unless it fits a meta build that a Youtuber put up. I've been trying and tweaking new builds with him that are working out pretty great at the moment.

Did my first 2 vet trials this week with my warden tank (imperial).
- vAA clean and easy, no problems with sustain and often able to provide the group with buffs and off-heals.
- vSO was a very messy run to begin with, esp the trash pulls but again sustain / buff / off-heals no problems at boss fights.
I feel more confortable with DK tank for now, mostly because I still need to learn how to effeciently use the warden toolkit, and not all skills / skill lines are max level yet.

Also levelling a stamina DD atm, don't know if I will end up playing it a lot yet but so far not bad. I always take it slow with new characters so it might take me a month or even longer to reach 50 with him.

My warden is still sitting at the stable. Another 3 months and he'll have max riding skills, and I might do something with him. We'll see.

Don't have Warden yet. It would be my 14th toon. I am planning to have one eventually, but not any time soon.

My Warden doesn't exist, because I did not purchase Morrowind. I tried Morrowind but I find it a very poor "update". The class is terrible, the zone sucks and is quite small when you take out the massive volcano in the middle you cant even access. I dont pvp, so battlegrounds are nothing to me. The questing is the worst in the game, and the morrowind patch was the worst patch of the game.

My Wardens are going to do what they do every night, try to take over the world.

Talrol · September 2017

My Warden is my main and i use him for endgame stuff also

End game healer, works exceptionally well with a templar healer as the passives compliment each other nicely.

Ceridwynne · September 2017

My plan is/was to make my warden "tanky" so that I can have 3 main characters. A mage in DC, rogue in AD, and then a warrior in EP. He is currently just horse training and trait learning, while I try to decide if I'm happy with the race I have chosen.

Megabear · September 2017

Makes ideal off tanks. You know those dungeons everyone claims they don't need a tank or healer? Makes good extra dps if need be too.

He's my main. I do everything on him. Currently trying to get into trials but noone seems to be doing them
