@Asayre is the king of math in this game, and here tamrielfoundry.com/topic/pts-2-1-2-sorcerer-arithmagic/ he outlines the optimal set-up for max dps. He has a 10% rule in place to determine if you would best benefit from the Thief or Shadow. Regardless which one you choose, both will equate to more DPS in PvE vs Warrior/Apprentice. PvP is a bit of a different beast as raw dmg is often desired since crits can be minimized thru shields, gear traits, and CPs. Hope this helps

Somewhat off track (and late to the party), but if you go through the maths in Asayre's post (thanks for the link, by the way), you (or, rather, Asayre) end(s) up with the inequality:

Critical Modifier > (Shadow / Thief) * Critical Chance * Skills

Meaning if the critical modifier stat is higher than critical chance times (Shadow/Thief), then Thief is the better mundus.

My point is that in his post, written over two years ago, he is using 12% for Shadow and 11% for Thief such that the ratio of Shadow/Thief is roughly 1.09 - this is where the 10% break point comes from. Except that today, and I have to double-check this in game but at least according to both UESP and one other Wiki, Shadow is 9% and Thief is 7%. Which implies that today the ratio is approximately 9/7 or 1.286 (stacking Divines does not matter as it applies equally to both the numerator and the denominator), and the break point is 29%, not 10%. This would imply that Thief is only efficient when your critical chance is less than 21%-26% depending on your CP allocation (well, crudely under 30% since you could pump the crit damage CP node higher).

EDIT - there is a completely different discussion to be had over the comparison of Apprentice to Shadow for different damage thresholds. Long way of saying I need to put together my own spreadsheet...

Anyway, enough of this thread derailment, I just wanted to get the updated break point comment in there.

using a bow/bow templar build, with 3 fighters guild skills, dawnbreaker ult frontbar, ballista backbar.

2 pc Kena, 5 pc Clever Alchemist, 3 pc Agility, Master Bow front bar, with poison inject on the target..

Total wep dmg 7930 for a completely ranged build.

Sounds like a 10fold wrecking blow with a snipe

Used to be a Werewolf bug where people had 25k weapong damage... Only lasted a week though

Well I play mostly tanks and healers so I'm not very experienced with dps. But the highest I got was 5k weapon damage. Without SPC, molten weapons, just my buffs. I was running 5pc Hundings, 5pc spriggans 1pc kena 1pc velidreth and weapon damage on jewlery, also had nirnhoned on daggers. On 2h I had golden weapon and achieved close to 5k.

D0PAMINE · January 2018

On my Stamblade with Rally and Merciless only I can buff to 3.5k Weapon damage.

BroanBeast1215 · January 2018

For max spell damage, you will be looking at 5 Clever Alchemist + 5 Moondancer + 2 Kena, with Spell Power Cure buff on you, and with Powerful Assault buff on you. Gosh that would be insanely high.

DW: 1602
Clever Alchemist: 661
Moondancer: 448
Molag Kena: 129+516
3x spell dmg enchant: 174 x 3 = 522
Apprentice + 7x divines: 166 x (7 x 0,075) = 253
---
SPC: 258
PA: 164

Total unbuffed: 4553
Buffed major sorcery: 4553 x 1,20 = 5464
Buffed major+minor sorcery: 4553 x 1,25 = 5691
Sorc with 5x sorc skills, major and minor sorcery: 4300 x 1,35 = 6147

Get rekt

Interesting. Although for weapon damage you are disregarding werewolf form, it gives a huge boost making 6.4k possible with 2p kena, 5p clever alchemist, 3p agility and master weapons. With all the buffs and the setup you suggested werewolf form may make it possible to crack 8k weapon damage.

Dont forget powefull assault.

And if yiu actually get that on a lowlevel its alot higher

Eximzy · January 2018

With every possible buff and lowish level character I got to 18,1k WD.
Thanks to Laksikus for buffing

Thogard · January 2018

My orc stamplar in medium has a ravager / CA / Agility build. 2h / shield. CA on the sword / shield and ravager 2h nirn.

Got it up to around 6.2 k but only when CA and ravager were both up which was rare.
