Nord or Orc or Redguard for a Stamina Warden

✭✭✭✭
For a 2H Stamina warden which race is better...I have combed through all the racials and have now boiled down to these three.
Orc : Melee Weapon dmg bonus + additional healing + 20% health recovery
Nord : Bonus exp gain on 2H (this is important as I would like to unlock Rally at the earliest) + less incoming damage + 20% health recovery
Redguard : Has Stamina regen + Max Stamina + Stamina gain from melee attacks
Which one do you suggest for 2H Stamina Warden focussed on PVE ?
I am gonna keep him as 2H/2H Stamina DD Warden or 2H/1HS Stamina DD Warden
Orc : Melee Weapon dmg bonus + additional healing + 20% health recovery
Nord : Bonus exp gain on 2H (this is important as I would like to unlock Rally at the earliest) + less incoming damage + 20% health recovery

✭In the long run exp gain bonuses cease being useful, so you're trading it for a potentially useful long-term racial passive, which to my mind makes Nord the least attractive for this. My inclination would be Orc given the complaints about the effective nerfing of the Redguard passives. Having said that, I just switched my Bosmer stamden to 2H because I'm bored with DW. I'm happy to have a little guy with a bear, a battle axe and a bad attitude walloping his way across Tamriel.PC NA, PC EU

lauykanson✭✭✭Always go for max stam since skill damage scales from max stam and you also get a larger pool so 2 birds with 1 stone1 -
JWKe✭✭✭✭Red guard easily trumps the other 2. Stamina regen got gimped in Morrowind so anything that helps with Stamina regen is automatically a plus.
Also, as you've mentioned you plan to " Which one do you suggest for 2H Stamina Warden focussed on PVE " so I would assume you're mainly focusing on PvE which means Reguard is easily the best.
I personally play Orcs though because... i've always had since TES iii.
Orc - > Stam 1 vs X. PvP.
RedGuard -> Any stam. Very versatile.
Nord - > Tank.
But, tbh anything works. I've been rolling as a magicka orc dk for a month now... works just fine.Edited by JWKe on June 9, 2017 5:55AM0 -

Skullstachio✭✭✭✭✭Orcs FTW.If you see me anywhere. Know that I am sitting back with a bag of popcorn, watching as ESO burns the goodwill of its player base with practices that only disrespects the players time like it did to me and many others...
If a game does not respect your time, best thing to do is move on from it and find something else.2 -
CTSCold✭✭✭I went imperial. Gotta have that 12% health to survive the Procalypse. And 10% max stam is great too.0 -

Fu... uhm... forget worrying about "whats better", play what YOU think you will have most fun with!For a 2H Stamina warden which race is better...
Each of them can be made to work -quite- well. Imperial too, for that matter.
Fluff wise... nord makes most sense as warden, since ice magic -and- tradition of living close to nature. Though orcs can fit as well, for they have similar fluff in that regard... (even though the wood orcs best known for being close to nature live in sunny valenwood instead of icy wrothgar)
That's why my stamina warden is a big, hairy, drunk, nord mountain man swinging a very large axe and possible getting mistaken for a bear in the dark on occasions...
I... I kinda misread that at first glance...I went imperial. Gotta have that 12% health to survive the Procalypse. And 10% max stam is great too.
(note to self - do something about that dirty mind of mine)

Rohaus✭✭✭✭✭Honestly, orc Nord imperial redguard, they all have their strengths...
If you ever consider health regen as part of your build... Nord and orc...
Think about this... with health regen... you don't have to worry as much about spamming a Warden heal which if you think about it, leads to good sustain when it the heat of combat.
Keep in mind... you do need to stack health regen to make it worthwhile... I personally don't think troll King is worth it by itself... need to stack it up with more health regen... unless you are 5 piece+ medium.Edited by Rohaus on June 9, 2017 1:09PMYouTube channel Rohaus Lives!

RD065✭✭✭✭Bow Bow started with Redguard. Recently changed him to Nord, because why not. It fits the story in my head. Its the only Nord I have. Plus I live in Windhelm, mostly Nord country.0 -

purple-magicb16_ESO✭✭✭✭✭None of them. Argonian scales better
If you're going Nord just for the xp bonus, don't. It's become moot since the introduction of xp scrolls way back when. That being said, Nord is an excellent choice for many many roles, I have Nord tank, dps and healer. All work well, but are not meta.
Redguards are great for stam recovery and would work well but Argonians have all around sustain. Can't comment on Orcs, haven't played those guys... yet.Edited by purple-magicb16_ESO on March 16, 2020 11:05AMI don't comment here often but when I do, I get [snip]0
