I haven't been playing this game as much as I used to, and I am need of updating a lot of my characters for sure.

I finally manged to get to 810. What classes or builds are currently best for DPS right now?

I'm on Xbox NA and the times I have played over the last year or so, I've been favoring my tank for all my dungeons and harder content. I've been playing my DPS classes very casually.

As far as my DPS classes, I've got a Mag and StamSorc, MagBlade, Mag and StamDen and a MagPlar.

    It always changes. Always.
    Right now I can tell you that "Magden, Magblade and Magcro are meta."
    But by the time you level up a character and learn it, it may drop out of meta.

    So I recommend you to play what you enjoy playing.

    Thanks for the response! I've just made my first MadDen to play through Greymoor and liking it so far. Trying to prioritize which class I want to start working on again.

    As far as trials, I'd a look at esologs - it always tells an interesting story: https://www.esologs.com/

    I usually check Iron Atronach, Yolnahkriin, Z'maja, and some other trial.

    Mag is strong right now, you'll see a lot of magdk and magplar on there using the new vamp spammable (esologs lists Blood For Blood as Invigorating Drain because it needs to be updated). There are pockets of magdens and magblades and magnecros pretty high up, and a few sorcs

    Classes that do really well for highly skilled players in optimized groups might not represent what is "best" for whatever you wanna do, or the easiest to perform well on. I find the magden rotation pretty easy—magplar, magblade, magsorc have more complicated skill patterns at the highest levels of DPS, but that can be fun and dynamic, if you like that
