I seem to encounter players with staffs everywhere i go.
In wayrest,in daggerfall....in bg,s(and thats really painful as a melee stamplar DD,when youre playing DM)

Now i want to see if im right about this,or just very,very unlucky.
Please let me know if you have a stamina or a magicka main,and tell me the class and what youre mostly using it for(pvp or pve).

    Even if zos balances the racials, Altmer have always been magicka oriented. Magicka user is my main since TES3 and likely never to change.

    My main has been with me since Beta, she's a Nord DK. I do all my crafting, achievements from solo play and PVP on her. My PVE magicka character is an Argonian Templar healer, she's good for everything from running quick pledges, to running trials :)

    Im honestly surprised because around 1 hour before i made this thread,i had 3 bg,s full of magicka users,in the last match,there have been only 2 stamina chars,me and another guy.
    Also went to wayrest and counted 7 or more people with staffs,and only 2 people with bows(looks always like this when im around it seems).

    I wonder where all those stamina chars are,thats why i asked if people use them for pvp or pve and what class.

    StamBlade, it makes general overworld PvE very easy.

    My other Main being a Sorcerer has jumped between Magic and Stamina multiple times, but she was originally a MagSorc and I have her specced as one now.

    Started out Stamina and never really could get into magicka as well, even though I’ve played them both in PvE and PvP with some success. I just love melee combat, don’t like ranged playstyle.

    My templar is my main and has flipped back and forth but right now is stamina and I mostly PVP outside of basic gearing and testing. Trying to find time to level a separate magplar so it probably would be a constant even split; but I just haven't focused on it

    I have a stamina main
    I play my alts more than my first character, but I guess you can call him my "main" as he's my Grand Master Crafter. Would have preferred a "Both" option though as I have Stamina and Magicka versions of each class and play them all.

    Also, no Health option? What if my DK health troll was my main?

    I mainly do pvp,so i cant say too much about pve...but in bg,s there are A LOT of magicka users,and they can do a hell lot of damage,and(depending on the build)they dont even have to get into melee range,dont underestimate them ;)
    Really sucks though,if youre the only melee fighter in the team,where the rest plays a magicka sorc....everytime i closed the gap in a DM,and started slashing away at someone with my 2H stamplar DD,i got focused by the other team and got blasted down in an instant,since i lack the DK,s spell reflection and the nightblades stealth.
    But that only happens in DM :/

    About the vote:Its clearly going more into the magicka direction for now,but im looking forward to more votes.

    I've got 2 mains, one Magicka Warden and one Stamina Nightblade. They only do pve and the Warden doesn't do the harder content. If I want to go in a dungeon I log onto my Stamblade. The warden is almost a Grand Master Crafter and she's recently started fishing. The stamblade is a werewolf and she hasn't done any crafting - she only does combat. It all works out pretty well for what I want to do.

    I have a magicka main
    Was stam for a long while. Have been magicka for about 2 months now.

    I like the high pace of stamina, but i prefer magicka because you have a lot more options when it comes to class skills. I prefer burst healing on demand as well, something stamina doesn't have.
