Help Me DPS Sustain Issue

Im posting this because I can’t figure this out. I’ve asked in some good builds and people are kind of baffled by the issue. But basically I just cannot sustain a parse on even a 3 mil dummy unless I’ve got 1900 recovery which means I’ve got to run a stam enchant on my infused necklace instead of wpn damage.

So with all wpn damage enchants I’ve got 1521 stam recovery which should be enough? I’m a Stamsorc Orc, 31.6k max stam running AY/Rele/Stormfist. Max CP, 100 points into Mooncalf and 34 into Tenacity. Using standard wpn power pots. Got a stam absorb enchant on my main hand DW. That should be the relevant recovery info.

Anyway my DPS maxes out at 35k because by around 25% dummy health I’m just flat out of stam and I’m stuck with heavy attacking. The execute range is a mess because I can’t get that stam to stay up. No one I talk to seems to have this issue on a 3 mil dummy even without orbs. I’m using timers for my dots so I’m not reapplying to early, and I’m following a pretty standard bar setup and LA rotation for stam sorc.

Only posting this here because I’ve gone over my setup 100 times, been trying to refine my rotation, add in a HA every so often but the result is similar every time and no one I’ve talked to in builds seems to be able to figure it out. I’m not missing any passives/armor weights/traits etc.

    6 medium atm because no stormfist head. But idk that will make a HUGE difference given how early my sustain issues start. I’ve been recommends to try the lava foot soup now so ill try that.

    Edit: Definitely better with lava soup, but still needing to throw a fair amount of HAs. Maybe with that and a 7th medium piece id be good.

    Yes. So with all medium and lava soup I’m able to do ok right to the very end. It’s still a bit off but that might just be even better timing of dots.

    Have a nightblade apply Mark Target, so that you get major fracture, if you haven't already. That might help out some.

    Thanks. It’s not a DPS issue. Turns out have that last medium piece and lava foot soup does help quite a bit over 6 medium and dubious. It’s still a bit iffy but I was able to pull 40.9k sans fracture.

    put your absorb stamina enchant on backbar (infused). This should help a bit....Atleast that's how i do it on a magicka-build.

    Sustain issue is closely chained with dps. More dps you have, shorter fight becomes, less sustain you need.

    Yeah it’s a fine balance. Seems like I am settling in okay now with some tweaks for self parses and perfectly fine with 1500 recovery for groups.

    Can you record a video showing all of your skills/passives and then the parse itself? That way we can see and help
