Look for a heavy attack build if you're not the best at weaving. I'd go with a PetSorc one as 3 skill slots are redundant from Inner Light/Bound Aegis & your pet.

You can also look at the stam DK or stam Sorc heavy attack builds.

I hate pets... So much... Always pulling and taunting crap I don't want them to... Standing in stupid places... /cough.

Anyway. I'll google some heavy DK and sorc builds later... Hopefully they use 6 or less actives.

Spam light attack on werewolf next patch lel.

Magsorc gets along with six damage skills quite well. You would still wan't a shield on your backbar though.

spend some money for new mouse with 2 or 3 extra buttons.
scroll up, scroll down, scroll button, mouse4, mouse 5, R.
DPI button for potion optional.
you can manuver and aim well on pvp.
for reaching 20k dps on dummy just need a good weaving and average 5/5/2 sets

My mouse has a couple extra buttons, I literally use scroll for view, I can't coordinate one of the buttons, and the other button is roll-dodge.

I've found a couple builds I can get 20k, it's just... getting passed that that's the issue... Also not good at weaving.

You can link an XBox controller to your computer and play the game that way. If you get the Elite controller, it'll be even easier. I don't know how you guys play on a keyboard honestly. More power to you for having that kind of dexterity.

Easy Magsorc no-pet build:

Gear:
Head: Heavy Infused Zaan's with Magicka enchant*
Should: Medium Divines Zaan's with Magicka enchant*
Waist: Divines Siroria with Magicka enchant
Feet: Divines Siroria with Magicka enchant
Hands: Divines Siroria with Magicka enchant
Legs: Infused Siroria with Magicka enchant
Chest: Infused Siroria with Magicka enchant
Neck: Arcane Queen's Elegance with Spell Damage enchant
Ring 1: Arcane Queen's Elegance with Spell Damage enchant
Ring 2: Arcane Queen's Elegance with Spell Damage enchant

Front Bar: Queen's Elegance Inferno with Infused Fire enchant
Back Bar: vMA Inferno with Infused Spell Damage enchant (run another Queen's Elegance if you don't have one)

*Run Skoria or Ilambris if you need to be ranged

Skills:
Bar 1: Liquid Lightning, Hardened Ward, Structured Entropy, Bound Aegis, Inner Light, Meteor
Bar 2: Elemental Blockade, Curse, Channeled Acceleration, Bound Aegis, Inner Light, Greater Storm Atronach

Rotation:
LA > Blockade > LA > Curse > Bar Swap
LA > Liquid Lightning > LA > LA > LA > LA > LA > Bar Swap
Repeat

Race: Dunmer
Mundus: Lover
CP: Can't remember sorry A good mix of elemental expert, elf born, staff expert and master-at-arms. A few points into thaum.

Channeled acceleration is re-cast whenever it drops off. Greater Storm Atro is the ultimate you need to use.

If you want to avoid using expensive pots then drop channeled acceleration for Power Surge.

I can hit 32k dps with this on the dummy. If you want to hit harder swap Structured Entropy with Elemental Weapon or Force Pulse and use it a few times during the LA spam.

Thank you, I have a magicka sorcerer training riding skill, I this will probably be great for him.

Was doing some test, but I think this is what you look for



Crushing Weapon - Merciless Resolve - Endless Hail - Caltrops - Poison Injection.
The parse was without ultimate also.

This is a one bar parse using vMA Bow.
I just switch on my main bar to shot my assassin's scourge, that's it.

Was testing which skill is the best at range for vAA Storm Atro. So CPs are not optimized for this kind of build

If I remember correctly, was running 5 Yokeda (DW) + 5 Relequen + 2 Kragh (but at range stormfist is better)

Stam sorc. Even in end game it is the simplest rotation and everyone knows this. They are forced to use 8 skill slots instead of 10 because bound armaments takes up the front/back bar slot(dont need it back bar but it's a pretty big dmg loss). Provides 8% max stam, 11% light attack dmg, 20% stam/hp recovery and 2% wep dmg.

For solo you just need to cast everything once and work around endless hail as your indicator to start your rotation again. Obviously light attack between every skill and eventually you will learn to only cast hurricane based on its 15sec duration instead of every 11-12 seconds.

Front: Rending Slash (Single Target DoT, 9 SEC) | Rearming Trap (Single Target DoT, 12 SEC) Hurricane (Self Buff 5-9m AoE DoT, 15 SEC) | Shrouded Daggers(Cleave AoE) or Crushing Weapon(Single Target) Spammable

Back: Endless Hail (AoE DoT 5m, 10 SEC 1-2 SEC DELAY) | Razor Caltrops (AoE DoT 8m, 12 SEC) | Poison Injection (Single Target DoT, 10 SEC) | Crit Surge (Self Buff Major Brutality and Healing of 3k(can crit) with a 1sec cd on ANY Crit dmg done, 33 SEC)

Both Bars: Bound Armaments (8% max stam, 11% light attack dmg, 20% stam/hp recovery and 2% wep dmg)

Ultimates: Use Flawless Dawnbreaker front bar for more wep dmg and some AoE DMG | Back bar is a flex spot. Sometimes I like double slotting Flawless Dawnbreaker, right now I really like using the greater storm atro. Gives nice dps for 28seconds. 2% wep dmg back bar is not a huge difference from 8%. Provides group utility with 25% major berserk synergy and can proc the implosion execute passive reliably with such a long duration and constant dmg ticks. Does AoE dmg on impact and provides 8% MAX hp when it's out for the 28seconds.

This build is generally good for any content with good dps. Good aoe dmg and single target and because of crit surge, good sustainable self healing. The only thing you should change in trials is to remove crit surge and use major brutality pots, then slot rearming trap back bar if you need deadly cloak front bar for dmg mitigation.

I highlighted all the duration timers so you could see how simple the rotation is.


My rotation would look like this(Always cast Crit surge/Hurricane first) but this is mid combat: Endless Hail -> Caltrops -> (Crit surge every second rotation) -> Poison injection -> BAR SWAP -> Hurricane (if expired or every rotation first till you get use to the 15sec timer) -> Rearming Trap -> Rending Slash -> Spammable (until 0-1sec remaining on endless hail) -> BAR SWAP

Light attack between every skill. You need at least 300-500 extra stam recovery invested to sustain a light attack rotation on stam sorc without the vicous ophidian set. I try to avoid heavy attacks as much as possible because we really benefit from light attacks with Bound Armaments passives buffing our max stam and light atk dmg.

This class doesn't have a lot of self buffs that other classes have and I can pull 36k dps with crit surge in my rotation using Vicious Ophidian | Advancing Yokeda | Kragh | VMA Bow (NO dmg hp pots on my bow) or
40k dps using the sets I want on PTS Arms of Relequen | Veiled Inheritance | Storm fist | VMA Bow (NO dmg hp pots still)

Self buffs missing that are available in a trial that boost our dmg. Minor berserk for 8% dmg, minor brutality for 5% weapon dmg, major/minor fracture, minor savagery for 3% crit. Major Savagery for 10% crit can be gained through weapon power pots.
