High MMR BGs are literally filled with Magplars, MagSorcs, and Magdens now, and Stamina builds have become a minority (and much easier to take down). That's how things are on PC EU at least.This is very much not true at least in bgs. Gap closers and onslaught are making mincemeat out of most caster builds.

Wait till they adjust. Stam has access to soul trap just the same as mag does. Onslaught allows stam to stack far more max stat/weapon damage and devote resources to survival and escape.
In some ways, stam is even better at range right now than mag classes are. Poison injection is doing roughly the same damage as entropy, and stam soul trap is just as broken on stam as it is on mag.
BGs NA are becoming littered with very fast LOS using stam sorcs. Soul trap, gap close, dizzy/onslaught, gg. Sub in PI if using a masters bow.

Stamina doesnt offer so much healing support. I believe magicka will be still the way to go in high MMR deathmatch games.
Which is why they are Stam Sorcs. Surge which procs on cooldown from soul trap is stronger than rapid regen, pair that with vigor. On top of that, you can LOS and use dark deal if you need a burst heal. Minor expedition paired with major from bow roll dodge. Shuffle so you have snare immunity.
The 2 revamped maps have insane LOS opportunities, and the previous new map did as well. Ranged targeting is very hard currently especially when paired with the horrendous performance caused by all the templar snare fields.
Stam has a very nice luxury of only needing 2 skills in order to secure kills. This allows a lot of utility and build options.

I am talking about healing not self healing.
BGs are pure numbers, bring 4 chars with 1.5 mil dps and 700k healing and watch how they destroy 4 players with 2mill dps and zero healing.

You mean like this?
Yeah I agree with you. Which is why I built my MagPlar this way.

Kind of but I prefer more damage. Though I will be glad if you are in my group.
That is how I build my magicka warden.
If I am not wrong 2 of my teammates that fight were stamina and brought nothing to the group.

That’s pretty nuts. I’ve done 1 million damage and 1.3 million healing, but your damage is way higher.
Were the stam total potatoes? With the hit to survivability two stam should be able to burst someone down fairly easily. It’s crazy your team didn’t win.

Don’t misrepresent. Kristopher is a skilled player who has been a Stamplar main for a long time. He has a very unique build and not many could run his setup and be successful with it. He changed his vibe a bit in this video. He was absolutely devistated the first day out in Scalebrealer on his Stamplar and I assume he will change his tune again. We all have ups and downs. I personally think Stamplar is doing fairly well if you’re good at it. The boosted ritual heal helps as a lot as does the improved dizzy swing. But honestly Emma, why don’t you level or gear up a stamina toon? You’ve been laying into stam builds for soooo long. If they’re really as OP as you say, why not try it out for a patch for two? You talk a lot about balance issues but don’t appear to have much experience outside of mag sorc.

Not even much sorc experience i would say. If you really are experienced you would know that sorc has been one of the strongest classes for years. They received multiple nerfs, big and small, yet they are still one of the strongest classes in the game. In a lot of patches they were even the strongest class. Right now in this patch they are really good again. In this patch they can use entropy, soul trap, curse, meteor and streak me on my stamblade and there is nothing i can do about it. They also still have massive shields and high mobility.
If you (Like Emma and the other famous sorc forum warrior) always complain about how OP other classes are and how OP those mean stamina bullies are while you play a sorc, you just cant be very experienced. Unless you are just a really bad player and cant even play a sorc...
