This is the type of build that makes pvp fun. Everybody else is running a cookie cutter. This is fun and practical. Perfect for groups.

[@Barba223]

Yes! I refuse to use the typical meta builds. U don’t always have to cheese to be successful and have fun

[@l-_-sage-_-l]

Great build! Another option if you wanted too you could do 1 trainee 1 Druid’s Braid. Not that it needs it haha but a lot of people forget about Druid’s

[@keto-rl2ce]

Gripping Shard option on Bar 1(in place of Corrupt Pollen) gives the Winter's Embrace passive for extra resists too. I love that. Fun build. I'm making it now! TY 😎

[@Barba223]

Glad you enjoyed it! :)

[@mgrilla17]

I was here for the warden build and you did not disappoint! Ggs dude.

[@Barba223]

Thank you sir

Awesome video brother! Definitely going to try this build!

Awesome job man. I am trying it out now. Thank you.

@@Barba223 thanks man. I am trying it now. It seems awesome. I just suck at pvp. Lmao. I will get it down.

[@Barba223]

@EdG27 haha man eso pvp takes literal years to get good at

[@xxxsunnyxxx800]

Yo! Good build! I will ry it for sure! Also ill do inperial, and master resto back ;)

[@Barba223]

Awesome!! Thanks for your comment!

[@B-l-e-a-k-y-y-y]

Been trying this out with Gaze because I don’t have Fete yet but damn am I having a lot of fun with my buddies on bgs. 400k damage so far and 1mil healing. Thank you!

[@Barba223]

I love to hear that! The build is absolutely amazing in a group setting. So much team utility

[@scrodoswaggins]

Nice build man! Love the work. Tanky build

[@Barba223]

Very very tanky I love it

[@scrodoswaggins]

@@Barba223 love that you’re uploading man. I just started uploading today again after a long time. Keep the content up brotha

Awesome build. Thank you..

[@Barba223]

Thank you! Another one will be coming

[@grizzlymint6792]

Great group oriented build!

[@Barba223]

Thank you :)

[@briankingham175]

Awesome build! I cant seem to pull myself away from swords...maybe i can adapt this to a stamina ice build (?)...anyway, if i try a frost warden build, your video definitely is a good foundation! It isnt the build, i just typically like melee builds, but I've been contemplating a magden, though...we'll see!😁 Its refreshing NOT seeing meta build items and such! Kerp up the awesome content! I'm subbing now!

[@Barba223]

I really appreciate your support it means a lot! There are surely ways to try out a melee version. Just remember you lose 10% flat dmg without an ice staff. You could try out the vampire spam

[@briankingham175]

That makes sense...and I saw storm knight awhile back and thought that'd be good to try, because like you, I want to do damage in pvp but not die in 3 seconds. And yeah, going down from 12% to 2% damage might make me change my mind, or at least have an ice staff on the back bar! Who knows, I might end up going mag all the way! It's all about having fun😁

[@Barba223]

@briankingham175 lol exactly, I will Gladly drop some damage for tankiness and team utility, just how I am. I totally agree fun >> playing meta

[@reconrevy]

If you front bar this set and it procs, if you switch to backbar will it still be active? Been looking to replace my way of the fire with dragons appetite with Rysoka and masters perfected ice staff, thanks!

[@Barba223]

Yea you can just front bar the set!

[@Jyuushiro666]

A pvp build with a set that not everyone run atm? Are you Real or I'm just dreaming? 😂 THAT! is the content I want to see, thank you. There are 500 build vids out there and 499 talk about the exact same shit... And then is there the one, that's you. Thank you ❤ I like the build, the video and how it's made and your thoughts to make this.

[@Barba223]

Thank you!! I feel the exact same way. I always try to make builds that not everyone is using. I appreciate the support

[@casualgamer5863]

Glyphs of Prismatic okay armors? Or just the max health glyph ? Also i have a redguard warden... but undecided if i should change race.. i really dont see many PVP build using that race. Would that be okay with this build or better to go with other races .. like ur build going try it out

[@Barba223]

You can use prismatic. It’s not much a of a difference. And if you want, u can always adjust attribute to get what u want. I will say Breton is the best in my opinion. It helps a lot but it won’t be the end of the world if u can’t change race

[@casualgamer5863]

​@@Barba223 ty changing race not issue but kinda questioning Redguard for PVP.. rare to see a PVP build... 😂

[@therealhvac]

Do you have a good PVE build for warden you use? I’d like to get a decent build either mag or Stam I can go through the game with. I’ve been using your stamden pvp build on Xbox and it’s awesome.

[@Barba223]

I’ll be honest I don’t pve much, just casually when I do dailies or grind out sets . I would just stack hella dmg if you can

[@kgm4556]

Magicka Warden is really good imo.

[@Barba223]

Yeah it’s very good

[@JessRaiden]

Ooohh that mag though is kinda low for me and im a high elf would this still work? love the build!

[@Barba223]

It’s all preference. High elf will work just Breton has better sustain. If you want, you can drop some health attributes into magic instead

[@Frigid.Frigid]

I love this, PvP is always a sweat fest and everything is just min max, perfection, everything tuned perfectly and if not you’re the bottom of the leaderboard and there’s no fun. This build is just amazing, actually enjoyable, not the best by all means but the most fun I’ve had since i was below level 50 and didn’t have to worry about CP

[@Barba223]

100%. I appreciate your comment it means a lot. Honestly, I have no fun running the same build as everyone else. Using themed builds and cool sets are what makes eso fun. The build is solid and very forgiving because of the health. Hope you enjoy!

[@eli_econemyestimated680]

This build is nasty 🔥 have you ever thought about ice furnace instead of storm knight it gives aoe fire damage while you deal frost damage

[@Barba223]

Yeah ice furnace is better overall but honestly I don’t wanna grind it and I like using off meta. But thank you :)

[@flamehands3416]

yo this looks fun af

[@Barba223]

I assure u, it is 😂

[@HuR1cAn3HoB]

How’s this build in open world , I see it’s survivability but what’s it like for securing kills, solo play mainly

[@Barba223]

I honestly have no issue securing kills. U get a lot of flat % damage from it so it’s solid plus you just wear people down . I just pick off weaker players first

[@harolddavis5252]

That other set you could use for the backyard would be thunderbug

[@Barba223]

Yup! Or better yet you can both of the sets at the same time lmao

[@timothydees4050]

Years ago i use to run storm knight and thunderbug on my sorc tank

[@Barba223]

lol i wanna try thunderbug i think it might even be slightly better

[@_Animikii_]

man id love to see a ult gen focused warden using arctic blast and blood mist as well and mayhaps, the frozen watcher set for just a shit ton of aoe dmg over a wide area XD

[@Barba223]

You know I actually think about that all the time. Only part that sucks is the heroism version of shield blocks like no dmg compared to other one. But it is a good idea and you could use balorgh as well

[@_Animikii_]

@@Barba223 or you could also go with potentates, Akaviri dragonguard, death dealers fete or really any cult gen mythic if you dont mind not having the fetes 22k max resources and zuuadrus while playing on proly imperial.

[@_Animikii_]

@@Barba223ya know recently i have started to make a warden build using frozen watcher, armor master, and death dealers fete with i chose a nord for the theme tho i feel like for this type of build, imperial probably might give a better bang for your buck tho still, ultimately it uses frozen watcher, artic wind, blood mist, and when you have the ult for it, permafrost as well as gripping shards and the winters gate ability to force everyone to constantly be around you as you are throwing out a shit ton of aoe dmg while also getting like around i think 70k health and permablocking with all your dmg scaling off your max health aside from i think artic wind.

[@_Animikii_]

@@Barba223beyond that i was thinking of throwing cutting defence and spiked boneshield in to make trying to attack also hurt like no fucking tomorrow just to add insult to injury to those who think they can burst you down fast enough...

@fenn1539 I never read something so toxic 😂😂😂I love it tho. I also love warden so much

[@paulmaier3323]

you totaly did!!!

[@ClassicIX]

should look into maligalig to sub for a back bar. less health but if you play with a small group like I do it is nuts the extra damage you provide as a support. its basically storm knight for the whole team and it hits even harder! wild

[@Barba223]

I’m gonna have to test it out thanks for the info

[@ClassicIX]

@@Barba223 look up the set bro.

[@Barba223]

@@ClassicIX just looked at it… I HAVE to get it and try it out that’s sick looking

@@Barba223 yeah dude. I mainly solo pvp on a bow and 2h dk. Been doing it since 2016 but when I group I love to go full support on my warden so any sets that buff my team I go for but that set just turns your whole squad into an aoe nuking machine. I still need to test some stuff out bc there are draw backs. Try it for yourself let me know how you like It bro

[@Barba223]

@classicix2477 yea imma grind that set out asap. Looks like it could make my build insane tbh

[@swingkid1771]

How would you alter the build, minus Death Dealers?

[@Barba223]

You could run a piece of trainee, maybe you could use markyn ring of majesty? Really anything you want to slot in is okay

[@swingkid1771]

@@Barba223 what about Malacath band to increase dmg seeing that you’re not stacking crit ?

[@Barba223]

@swingkid1771 that’s not a bad choice at all!

[@summerbrez]

Yo man Believe it or not but before trying bow cro I was trying magden, first time ever as well For base I was taking Malcolm's build and Akkfy's build from KZbin Basically I've tried these 2 builds: 1) way of fire (don't have ice furnace) / 2 piece recovery / ddf or ssc / trainee + druid's / master's staff or asylum staff / vma staff 2) wretched / rallying cry / 2 piece recovery / ddf or ssc / trainee / master's staff or asylum staff Race is dark elf, vamp stage 3 as usual So what can I say Magden is fun, damage is decent but not really op (2h stamden's waaay better) and the worst thing is sustain. Bro.. I had wretched, 2 piece recovery monster set, atronach mundus, revealing flare frontbar for mag recovery passives, ddf, jewels of misrule food... and sustain is still crap xD Idk maybe it's cuz I was trying the build and was spamming stuff a bit too much but still that amount of recovery stuff and struggling with it is ridiculous. So yeah.. I feel like if you aren't a breton sustain will be very tough regardless of what sets you run. Also all I said is about BGs so non CP because that's where I play.

[@Barba223]

I also play mostly BGs and no cp. to me the sustain is tough on warden if I don’t have Breton as a race. Is it doable? Of course. But I like this build because I’m so tanky that I have time to use those heavy attacks to my advantage and help with sustain a lot. It’s nice to not have to spam stuff constantly on the build

[@AllThingsFascinate]

On khajiit I've found I can sustain 1800 mag recovery *if* I also have adequate stamina to keep up vigor and roll dodges. The classes wasn't buffed nearly as much as people say. The stun is blockable and inconsistent. The damage is still behind NB, DK, Sorc, the burst is iffy. No execute. Healing is ok to keep topped off, but burst heal is dog water unless you run polar with max health. It feels like I'm playing the game on hard mode on my Magden. Dk I can just roll my face across the keyboard wearing trainee and be fine haha

[@Barba223]

@AllThingsFascinate before I used this build… I hated my Magden (which is my fav class). The high health build is saving my sanity

[@summerbrez]

@@AllThingsFascinate was trying magden on my build yet again today and the easiest I can put it is this - it's probably the worst class if you play against a good player and you can of course clap all others if you want. A bit longer: no burst, no damage at all, rip heals, rip sustain, it's just honestly very bad, like you can feel it compared to all other classes. Seems like nothing helps it. I believe Barba that max hp build is good but I don't really like playing like that. Overall magden is amazing as an idea and I like it as a class but in execution it's horrible especially in no cp and after arctic blast nerf. Stamden is better in literally everything and you can actually kill people with it, heal better and survive better as well.

[@Barba223]

@summerbrez I think magden is meant for group play more than anything else. They have a ton of team buffs and off heals and can really just drop dmg in group

[@cameronbachman8161]

Desert rose was my favorite magdk set for a hot minute. One of the forgotten gems that's been left alone

[@Barba223]

It is a cool set tbh. I used to use it a ton. I only use the 2 piece on back bar to get the armor bonus from it

[@iZerTex]

desert rose is better than Lich on Mag DK

[@guillaumemayan8400]

i guess this is my sign to come back to eso

[@Barba223]

Lmaoo glad I inspired you

[@kozy_eu]

ice furnace is aoe dmg set, and its way better than storm knight

[@Barba223]

Everyone goes with ice furnace. I wanted to use something different and not be the typical build. Storm knight does well for me

[@Jyuushiro666]

But you have to active ice furnace. With storm knight you just need to stand there and the sets do the work for you 😄

[@Barba223]

Lol true you can activate storm on knight on ur back bar too which is nice

[@Yorkshire-Sauce]

where di i get the staff

[@Barba223]

Masters staff drops in dragonstar arena

[@coaze]

Copied this build to a T and how are you not struggling with mag recov & mag sustain? Is it because im just spamming frost touch too much? I literally cannot burst people down this was my last chance with warden ive tried masters dual wield, two hander stuhns nothing hits as hard as a magblade/hybrid dk such a shame cuz i really like my warden

[@Barba223]

I heavy attack into my clench . You get a ton of magic back from the ice staff damage shield and can immobilize to line up your fissure. I also use resto heavies a good amount

[@SonofGod1980]

well the problem you will have is you are missing out on a LOT of dmg without light attack weaving. Light and heavy are important to damage and what you get prolly isnt worth the trade off. you can get minor force from a number of places. and Orders wrath is a great set.@@xboxgamerz22

[@ReadyDaddy]

ye it's strong, but holy shit is it boring. This is what kills the fun for me in ESO. Encounter another guy like you in PvP and you have a stalemate. Happened to me just yesterday, i don't know what that was but i was dealing 0 damage to him... i was on my NB, my full combo got 30% of his HP down. But you guessed it, he also did no damage.

[@Barba223]

Lol the playstyle isn’t for everyone. But honestly I can kill most people. You’ll always get those ppl you just can’t kill. I see what u mean tho

[@ReadyDaddy]

@@Barba223 i mean, ofc, thers a skill issue as well, im 600 hours in. a pvper with 2-3k hours would probably be able to find a way to kill that tank guy i couldnt. but the metric for how good the build is, is usually the average player, aka the majority. a well trainer soldier armed with a stick will usually demolish a moron armed with a sword.

[@Barba223]

@Kuksoman yeah I agree. Any build can and will be good in the right hands

is a proc set not for pvp witout cp

Fun?we need to get rid of the tank meta in pvp and not have all these 40k+ builds dominating pvp atm,i say cap health to 30k in pvp as its getting out of control now,40k 50k and even 60k toons running around in large groups,when will it end,i mean no disrespect at all but its all getting out of hand now,thats my opinion.

[@skinsdan6831]

@Barba223 I would prefer if everyone was capable of killing everyone no matter what class but now its taking 10 players to kill one,we don't need trial builds in pvp,maybe its because ive generally played nb so maybe a bit biased but pvp has got a little tedious now as the tank meta is getting worse not better,also heals are stronger than damage by a big amount,they need to stop shields scaling off health also,too many arcanists now with 40k+ health,when will it end.
