MAGPLAR! As long as I can hit something I literally cannot die. Our selfhealing is absolutely busted and isn't reliant on gear.

[@PlayerSkillFTW]

Yep. The self healing of the Magplar far exceeds the Sorceror. Heal for 33% of the damage done by a spammable AoE ability? Even single target, Puncturing Sweep rivals Critical Surge, and in an AoE situation, it's miles ahead of Critical Surge. Then you have Purifying Light on top of that, healing everyone (including Companions) around the afflicted enemy? I use this to heal Isobel as she's tanking shit for me 😂.

[@Melsharpe95]

@@PlayerSkillFTW Add in the fact that if you stack +Crit to about 70% 3 out of every 4 hits from your Puncturing Sweep will be a crit heal, and if you've managed to get your +Crit Damage up close to the 125% cap then you're looking at 50%-75% of your HP returning from a single attack.

babe wake up new deltia tier list dropped!

[@andrewmicallef9679]

Honestly , Templar, Warden, Sorcsrer and DK all perform beautifully in most solo content. Its dlc world boss and world event soloing, and veteran solo arenas where the stamina arcanist's edge really shines. As you said its just so versatile and so forgiving on your resources that its getting same or better results than the 4 afformentioned classes with what feels like half the effort and double the cushion I frequently solo summerset worldbosses and highisle world bosses on my stamina arcanist, with no tank companion, and i have no problems whatsoever. When i try the same on my warden, i notice i rely quite a bit on a tank companion, which pairs well with warden and their blossom skill for free healing on the tank Dragonknight has, for me, no way to help the tank companion stay alive, so when they go down im on my own. Sorcerer doesn't rely on anything, but a tank companion helps. I feel its as easy to play and nearly as strong as the arcanist in SINGLE target solo, but theres the key difference. If im facing a boss like the Faun WB in high isle where i need to break the spirit indrik before wipe, i need to stop hitting the boss and focus the indrik. With arcanist i just need to aim my beam and hit boss and indrik at the same time. There are many other examples of why and when this key difference makes arcanist shine in a league of its own for pve content

[@MeanAndPristine]

For sure, the arcanist’s insane cleave has helped me through more than a few situations. Just yesterday I ran March of Sacrifices HM to complete a pledge, and it trivialized Balorgh’s hunt phase by being able to just zap all the wolves and stranglers in like 5 seconds. Can’t do that on any other class

[@ericcardinal9138]

i've always considered that all classes are the best. i don't mean they're the best at what they do. i mean what they lack theirs tons of other options which are accessible for all class. if a stam dd wanna heal, the assault skill line will be a great choice, regardless of the stam dd's class. you're a mag dd? there's always resto staff. what would a mag dd use instead of a destro staff? a bow? you want a shield skill? both ice variant of destruction staff and 1 hand +shield have what you may want. you're a stam dd and want long range attacks? a class skill ain't necessary. a bow have many possibilities and you can always throw a daguer with dual wield. you wanna be stealthy? i've been sthealthier then any nightblade i ever saw, as a warden, by simply using invisibility potions and being a vampire. so much for their invisibility skill. you wanna summon pets? between being a werewolf and multiple choices of sets no need to be a sorcerer nor a warden or watever else. from my point of view, class passives have more importance then their actual skills. even a player's play style have more importance in the matter. no matter how great sorcerers and templar may be, when i use them, it's a shitty result, compare to when i use a warden. it's not that these class are bad. they simply don't suit my playstyle. likewise, i tried many times to play as a tank, but strangely enough, i survive far more easily as a dd then as a tank. why? because being a tank is the farthest thing from my play style. same is true for pvp. as much as i'd love to be a tank surviving temns of players as they attack me all at once, staying still, barely moving an inch, i can't, but as a dd? i had zergs of players trying to attack me on multiple occasions and i survived, sometimes even managing to kill some by using cunning starts. i even remember receiving death treats. some said i was weak to ressort to such things, but if a group a 10+ players attack me all at once and fail miserably, while i kill some of them, what i read ain't "i'm weak", but "we're weaker then those we deem as weak". i use the same builds for pve and pvp. they ain't the best i can use, but it was good enough for me to become emperor and for me to kill other emperors in pvp, while also good enough for me to solo a few trial boss easily enough for me to use them as mere training dummies. i did it not by using the best sets, nor the best skills nor the best race/class, but by playing my own way. i play to have fun, not to restrict myself to the meta. while other players whine at zenimax because their characters are nerfed, i don't care what they did, because i'm as efficient as i always have always been. it doesn't matter sorcerer are better then wardens. i still kill mobs and boss far more easily then those i meet in matchmaking. my "class" may be weaker, but my play style far more then make up for it. in the end, the result is all that matters.

[@BROKENBLADE821]

I'm Japanese, but your explanation is easy to understand. I'll translate it and study. Thank you!

I play mag arcanist with 0 sustain issues. When I tried stam, then I had issues. Plus, i don't like the dual weild builds. So 2x inferno staff, runecarver, deadly, velothi 1 piece slimcraw and i'm melting everything. I really like runecarver that's a new set on my build, and it works great.

I picked Arcanist as my first class (got the game just after Necrom) and sometimes I feel like I made a mistake because of how mind-numbingly boring it is as a stam arcanist to basically have a two-button combo. I'm thinking of swapping to Mag Arcanist if only to make the rotation slightly more complex - building crux for the magika flail then build again for the beam.

[@phalanxt2416]

as someone who has been playing since before greymoor chapter as a stamina templar, and then a mag templar... don't be, while is true that it can get boring, it's better than use a class that, unless you have high end gear, struggle to kill story bosses from the expansions, and having zenimax nerf your main healing skills is one of the most frustrating thing's in the game, at least you got a class that can carry you for nearly all content. so pick a different class, a sorcerer for example, and let your arcanist do the job to get it's best gear, and from there enjoy.

I've done ok but I would sure like to know what your S-Tier arcanist build looks like so I have a goal in mind I can work towards with my own spin, thanks! Subbed!

[@scoreyj13]

Mag Arcanist and pour into stam regen. You will have no issues with sustain if you do that. Run Hexos with Deadly and with the beam you don't need to add health so can run Crunchy Spider Skewer. Then with Bloody Renewal stam won't ever be a problem so long as you use Fatecarver. Even against bosses (Bloody renewal meaningless against them) sustain is simple.

[@xelnjare3945]

Now I need help on running a Magicka Templar, time to search your channel!

[@UselessSpen]

I wish they would give the necromancer some love. The changes they made were nice, but most of the abilities they buffed dont work in PVP. Boneyard is to costly to recast early, and only last for a few seconds if they walk out of it. Blast bones only has 1 solid morph because DOT don't function as solid kill pressure (I know I have tried). You have basically 10 timers that require constant tracking and your ult regen which is suppose to be the power of the necro is useless without corpses. I'd love to see blast bones turned into 4 summoned pets that are treated as DOT, with skeleton mage as support. the Skeletons will act as cover/dmg/ and when they die they create bodies. have a different power to blow up the bodies and regen life/magicka. Have another power to summon a bone/flesh golem (morphs) that acts as a taunt tank with a heavy hit when recasted. This would make necro feel way stronger and fit the theme better. Not to mention the more minions we have to a max of 6 increases our penetration by 1K each. This means it encourages enemies to kill our minions to lower our damage, but at the cost of giving us bodies to use. The necro himself will have curse powers to weaken the enemy and to buff himself. His damage is from his minions, and depleting his enemies.

[@superiorlizard6378]

Magik nightblade argonian is and always will be the meta build

[@franks.1742]

Ignore most of the nonsense in this video of pitting mag vs. stamina. Most of the cons are easily solved if you back bar a destro for stamina, or using dual wield for more damage as mag. Then you can mix and match skills taking advantage of generating both resources. Take stamina warden for example, with a frost staff like in pvp, the solo version just have little drawbacks compared to to using a bow. Not sure why a PvP content creator wants to still rate classes for solo play as plain stamina and Magicka, when he knows how to overcome these drawbacks for pvp.

[@joshuanwaneli4555]

I think he pit mag over Stam based on how u will sustain the spammavle

[@joshuanwaneli4555]

Like why would u use mag arcanist when u can use Stam arcanist can sustain flail which heals stuns and generates crux

[@franks.1742]

@@joshuanwaneli4555 again if you use dual wield on a mag character you can medium weave and sustain it. You can very much do three cruxes before you run out of stamina too. Also on top of that he has other videos where he recommends medium armor for mag characters for more damage, so basically you generate stamina recovery anyways, and of course Tri potions. Basically there’s no real reason why have a separate mag and Stamina rankings when you are pretty much using some alterations to the old mag and stamina builds. Much much less for solo.
