A question about race/class pairing after the changes

117Dios · January 2019

Hi guys,

I was wondering, after the changes hit live, is Argonian still going to be the "top" healer? Also, which one of the following should fare better as a tank? And as a DD?

Warden: Imperial or Redguard?

Templar: Imperial or Redguard?

Until the final patch notes go live it's still a bit of a gamble as to how much ZOS change things.

There are some general ideas coming out (which I will let more experienced people inform and debate) but yesterday we had confirmation ZOS will make changes to current shown information before the live release.

Oh, guess I'll have to wait a bit for the theorycrafting then, thanks a lot

As it is atm, Breton and even Altmer are better choices than Argonian for healer.
Nord seems good for tanking. Imperial is at the bottom of every role followed by Argonian.
Redguard is still the best choice for stam dps.
It's still early and alot can change until live.

We only know of ZOS point of view behind each race.

Dunmer/Khajiit => Jack-of-all-trades
Breton/Altmer => Magicka
Redguard/Bosmer => Stamina
Orc/Imperial/Nord => Tank
Argonian => Healer

As of PTS 4.3.2 (approximatively sorted by effectiveness in PvE)
Khajiit => Sustained damage (Magicka or Stamina)
Breton => Healer or Sustained damage (Magicka)
Dunmer => Burst damage (Magicka or Stamina)
Redguard => Sustained damage (Stamina) or Tank
Orc => Burst damage (Stamina) or Tank
Imperial => Tank
Nord => Tank
Bosmer => Sustained damage (Stamina)
Altmer => Burst damage (Magicka)
Argonian => Healer
