New Sorceror

Hi, I'm looking for a little help as I have trawled around looking at various threads etc around the net and cant find a definite answer to my following queries. I Bought ESO on release a few years back and never really got into it - at the time I was a long time wow player and fairly decent (few top 10 ranks mage/lock) but certainly not the best.

I started with a NB on here and never really got into it, I came back a few months ago and started again with a DK which was ok, but quickly figured I should go with a magic class again and so started to level a Magicka Sorc, and here begins my issues:

1) What is the current best spec? The info I find is varying in date from 2015 to early this year. I'm running Vet Dungs at the moment and will move into trials when I feel I have fully grasped the game. I have been running a pet based build up until now as some state that is the best spec..

front bar - Inferno staff - Fragments. Hardened, Force Pulse, Power Surge - Inner Light/Pet
Back Bar - Lightning Staff - Wrath, Liquid Lightning, boundless/Prey/Haunting, Blockade of elements, Inner/Pet

Sat at 307 CP any insight onto best place for those?

Also I read that I should have 18k HP for Vets/trials - I'm sat at 10.5k right now unbuffed. If I'm supposed to go magicka/SP on every enchant and 64 in magicka, how are people getting 18k with just buff food? (I'm low prov atm still levelling it)

2) With the above in mind and I have access to vDG's at the moment, what load out should I aim for? Ive had massive issues getting a good staff, got an inferno and lightning right now both sharp.

I currently have 5 x BSW, 2 Llambris and 3x Julianos (no luck with willpower)

I'm farming the Necropotence set as we speak, as I cant craft all the Julianos yet due to traits, so, I guess, what set should I put my effort into ?

A lot a questions and some probably very simple for the older players, sorry if they are - I don't even have a functioning guild haha

Thanks

Ayáo

    Generally if you're looking for veteran trials builds you want to check AlcastHQ and Tamriel Foundry forum, these are normally the places for high quality end game builds/guides.

    There maybe more more optimal or personalised ones out there but those area good starting point. I have both linked in my signature below.

    Previous comment is right. Here is a solid place to start...
    There is a setup he gives with mostly crafted gear. Easy to get going on it but obviously the rotation will take quite a while to master.
