Automaton was awesome on stamsorcs several years ago, and was more powerful than Hunglings on a stam sorc. But with the introduction of new sets (i.e Relequen) and the push for crit damage it has fallen by the wayside. With CP 2.0, I wonder if you could make a build that could take advantage of it and . All of the stamsorc's skills are physical and bleed damage.

You could also use Flawless Dawnbreaker and take advantage of Automaton.

Last, if you are basing your build off of the Alcast PVE stamsorc (just a guess), that storm atro is group-oriented build. Meaning that you should be using Dawnbreaker as your ultimate unless nobody else has a storm atro in your group.

Wait so is storm attronarch a dungeon ulti or trial ulti? Should i just use dawnbreaker in dungs for dmg?

What I meant is it is most effective in a group when you are the only one running it in a dungeon group, or you are one of a handful running it in a trials group. I'm fairly certain one atro only helps out one other DD. So if you were in a group where the other player was running something with an execute like Killers Blade, or a more powerful ultimate like Shooting Star, the group would benefit more than if both of you ran the atro. Sadly, this was a better ultimate before the nerf to Major Berserk. Not saying its useless, just was better before.

The uptime of 28 seconds vastly outperforms Dawnbreaker, especially in boss fights that take more than 10 seconds. However, the cost is twice that of Dawnbreaker. So if you and another stamsorc were in a group, you'd be better off with one dropping the atro and the other dropping Dawnbreaker after the atro to pump out a lot of damage, then being able to regenerate their ulti for another Dawnbreaker while the atro is up. Its kind of similar to the colossus where you only want one up at a time, with the difference in a trials group of wanting one up for every 2 DDs at a time.

This also assumes there is not another source of Major Berserk in the group and that everyone could activate their atro. Oh, and that you get a a tank in a trial doesn't absolutely hate the storm atro.

@francesinhalover Sorry, didn't mean to confuse your with that. Was thinking if you were in a group with a magsorc that had Shooting Star slotted. In that case your Storm Atro would boost the damage of that mag player's Shooting Star. Versus the reverse of if both of you dropped the atro you, as a duo, would put out less damage. Was not at all recommending you get Meteor as a stamina player. That would be a mess.

Yeah @Zodiarkslayer , you are right, but imho both sets are... not a best option for stamsorc. Hunding's 3 item bonus is wasted on stamina and Automaton doesn't improve your LA. Which are kinda important for stamsorc due bound armaments... So maybe better think about sets for LA like Undaunted or Stormmaster.
