Vicious Ophidian is really easy to get a 5 piece of and imho is mandatory in vMa for stam. Get that set to go with your other 5 piece before you continue in vma and watch your stamina regen, damage and speed greatly improve. It drops in all the easy base game trials in craglorn. AA, HRC, SO.

Sustain is the big problem with my stamblade. I have a heavy attack build which is promising.
Any advice for stamblade who haven't been able to farm a trial set to do vma?

So to start this off, I am a redguard, stamina sorcerer dps, i got the nightmother set on which is pretty good, i got 413 champion points, and I've tried the maelstorm arena atleast 23 times (yes I've counted.) I've checked Maelstorm guides on youtube, and none of them have been helpful.
I usually get stuck at the spider daedra part where the boss and the spiders just melts my health down, even though I vigor myself until I have NO stamina left.
Something about this is very suspicious, when I can see every other dps classes out there finish the NORMAL one without so much as a hassle, whilst I am struggling for my dear life, using every sigil around, using poisons, wasting time and resources to get that one Maelstorm bow that I may or may not get, then it just hits me...
Stamina Sorcerers dps are not balanced correctly to solo:ing arenas such as Maelstorm,
now I'm sure there's going to be atleast SOMEONE thats gonna come in here and say "Oh i did it, and i didnt die, yadda yadda" I'm gonna call *** on that, you died several times, you had to use every poison potion, and health potions in the book, you probably had a pet, you probably had to cheese it and rip ur HAIR out to finish it, which again, should not be the case.
Now someone else is going to say "oh but its suppose to be challenging"
Challenging, i can agree with, but Maelstorm Arena is UNBALANCED to us stamina sorcerers, hands down.
I really expect the eso devs to buff stamina sorcerers, or nerf Maelstorm arena, cause I cannot progress in this game to get the gear I really need/want.
Time to wake up eso devs, time to wake up.

Do the mechanics right and you won't have an issue. Anybody who ignores mechanics in vMaelstrom is going to die. The difference between you and them is you're ignoring mechanics. Other people aren't because they know you cant.
Is the OP even speaking of veteran? Their wording implied to me that they were playing it on normal. Either way, as people have stated, stamina sorcerer is an excellent class for solo play. Having a ludicrously strong self heal that works as you cause damage, and a damage mitigation skill that causes AOE damage at the same time is incredibly powerful. Learn your class, and how to play the arena before calling for rebalance.
Everyone’s experience in the game is different. One person classified the stamina dragonknight as the lowest on their list, where that is the one class I have had an easy flawless no-sigil vet clear. And frankly, with even a half-decent setup that has sufficient self healing, damage mitigation and sustain, of any class, normal Maelstrom is trivial.
