Hi there, I'm a new player and I'd like to start two different characters, a stamblade and a magblade. I know this question was asked a billion times, but I can't find a recent and satisfying answer, so.. Which race for stamina and which one for magicka? Mainly for PVP, but if you don't mind tell me even wich ones for PVE. NO ARGONIANS and KHAJIITS, I know argonians have op healing etc but those two races look awful and I don't want to play as an inferior beast (this will trigger many people maybe). If you'll answer this ty :)

Bosmer for PVP Stamina Nightblade. Argonian for PVP Caster Magicka Nightblade. Breton/High Elf/Dumner for Melee Magicka Nightblade.

For Magicka, like others have said, Breton, High Elf, Dark Elf, in basically any order. The High Elf has higher overall damage, the Dark Elf excells at flame damage, and the Breton is a bit beefier than the other two. There's a few things worth remembering though: High Elves get a bonus to elemental damage (fire, lightning, and cold), and if you're a sorc then that's great. However, for nightblades, most of their in-class damage will be Magic. As in, that's the damage type. As a result, neither the High Elf, nor the Dark Elf, will get any bonus damage to that specifically. However, most magicka builds also use the destro staff, and that will do elemental damage that the High Elf (and potentially the Dark Elf) get bonuses for. So, choose accordingly. For Stamina, Bosmer and Khajiit are nice if you're working as a gank build. Imperial or Redguard are good for straight up skirmishing. Orcs and Nords can work well as stamblades in PvP. The thing about PvP is, durability over straight damage can be far more valuable. If you're dead, it doesn't matter how much damage you're doing, and you are going up against players who can burn you. Traditionally tanky races can be very useful for a Stamblade in PvP.
