@@NinjaPulls will you do one bar builds? XD what is your opinion for them. As a trial build. Especially one bar sorc with seargent/stormmaster

[@NinjaPulls]

@@insolvenzberater5892 Good question. Difficult to answer! 😆 I have no problem with HA builds, and they're strong right now, but there are a few reasons why they MIGHT be overrated. It's complicated, and casual trial groups shouldn't care if you bring a HA build, so long as you bring good DPS. But more organised groups will put more pressure on you to keep up. There's a lot more to consider, but here a few things to keep in mind: 1. You can't block-cast without stopping damage, which can be a problem. 2. HA rotations are weaker. Why choose lower damage? 3. You expect your supports to buff you. They expect you to bring max DPS. 4. Learning to weave is a smart investment. Oakensoul may be nerfed one day. Like I said, difficult to answer. Ultimately it depends on you and the group you're playing with. My advice would be to try everything, do whatever you enjoy, and change it when there's a good reason. Hope that helps.

Yeah I was pleased with how the intro worked out - glad you enjoyed it! So many people have mentioned a ranged setup that I’m thinking of doing a follow-up video.

[@greenebronze]

I would love that! We are working on a vAS+2 and need ranged. I just love staves 😁

[@NinjaPulls]

@@greenebronze Already answered the range question in replying to another comment. It's very easy actually - you just swap the Daggers for an Inferno Staff. I would avoid double staves - you absolutely don't need a ranged back bar, even in vAS+2. It's WAY harder to sustain without Stamina DOTs in your rotation. A bow back bar is an option. Everything else about the setup will still work, but I'm wary of recommending specific setups, since it totally depends on the group you're with.

Wonderfully explained so well edited video and super looking build.

So we noobs can join the farming trials without getting blamed for low damage ... detailed explanation for trash build rotation would also be appreciated.. Keep up the very very helpful work. Warm regards

[@AlmightyBeezy]

Dad Sorc here! I’m coming back from a very long break. Was ALWAYS a PvP player but now coming to find out that I need to do PvE content to get some mythics I want! Would this be good for just normal dungeons as well, or where should I start? Doing things like V Dragon Star and such!

[@NinjaPulls]

Yeah it should work in most situations. Just be ready to move some Whorl pieces to the body if you need more pen/sustain (very useful to have that option). And keep in mind that AOE damage is limited, if you need to melt secondary targets while also keeping pressure on the boss. Just switching your Atronach to the Charged morph makes a big difference, or swapping Relequen for Tzogvin and freeing up a spot for Mages' Wrath. These don't really affect the rotation at all, which is handy!

[@AlmightyBeezy]

@@NinjaPulls ok that’s great to hear. Maybe I should have rephrased my question lol: I’ve never done but one Trial in my lifetime of ESO play. Always been interested in more PvP content. But now I need to “get started” with pve to get my build together, for PvP lol. Right about 850 cp currently and just need the basics for dungeons, Dragonstar, farming open world stuff. So what would be better for this? I see that Whorl is a trials set, I don’t think I’m ready for that. Don’t even have the masters, maelstrom, or really any good PvE gear. What would you think is something good to get started, plus abilities? For instance, I ran DSA last night and even though I’m good at not dying due to being good at PvP , my DPS is abysmal in comparison to other DDs.

[@jhabben]

The most important question is, what armor motif are you using in this video?

[@NinjaPulls]

Hahaha nice! Mostly it's Ebonsteel body pieces, with a Nibenese Court Wizard leg piece. I think the weapons are Molag Kena and Engine Guardian. And the Asylum skin of course. Who says Sorcerers need to be bearded old men with robes and big wooden sticks?

[@jhabben]

@@NinjaPulls hopefully you dont mind if i cop that look :). Also awesome videos and website. Trying out a lot of your builds, thanks!

hey mate I was looking the written guide on your website and was asking myself what piece of gear should drop if I want to use ur mage velothi for trash mobs ? Anyways thanks for this build I managed to get 125k with pillar+whorl but withdynamic rotation. ;)

[@NinjaPulls]

Trash setups are very dependent on group/situation, but I'd drop the monster set and switch to a 1 x Slimecraw.

[@NinjaPulls]

You're welcome!

[@JamesBrown-my5iy]

Why do you choose to run two trial setups? I’m trying to wrap my head around how the loss of a 3rd trait, coupled with minimal time on the backbar, would produce more damage than nirn. Thanks for the video btw.

[@NinjaPulls]

You're welcome. I explain about Whorl at 8:33. It's not that I wanted 2 trial sets per se, but the procs from these 2 sets are really strong and work particularly well with this setup. Having Minor Slayer twice is no big deal, especially if both sets are Perfected.

[@cptbtwth]

I'm gonna try with a fier staff front bar. I like the flexibility of ranged FB.

[@starcrushergaming9810]

Just a quick question on the written guide us says 5 pieces of reli, and 6 of whorl, 2 maw, and kilt maybe my math is bad but that seems 1 slot over?

[@NinjaPulls]

No worries - it's a bit baffling! But the numbers are correct: 14 in total (7 body, 3 jewelry, 2 x 2 weapons). We're 'over-equipping' Whorl so we still have the 4-piece bonus active while we're on the front bar. Does that help clear things up? 😎

[@godspeedfx]

What set would you recommend instead of rele if you're in an un-organized group and penetration is an issue? Or should I just switch some pieces of rele/whorl around to get more light on the body? Most of the trials I'm running right now don't have alkosh in the group. Or do you think using force of nature CP should be enough? I want to make sure I'm not missing out on damage in those unorganized groups.

[@NinjaPulls]

Swapping some Light pieces ought to do the trick, but Force of Nature is also a good idea. Maces instead of Daggers is also an option, but switching CP is probably the easiest option.

[@NinjaPulls]

P.S. Tzogvin can also be very nice, since it adds a line of pen, and frees up space on your bar.

[@godspeedfx]

@@NinjaPulls Thanks man!

[@juliafdiva4650]

Been stuck not getting WoD lighting staff for other classes so this could be reason to try sorc. Not tried any dual hand builds as of wondered about the contradictory nature as most mag builds feel range but this means melee range. Does that limit in trial? Does pure staff build decrease DPS a lot? Ty this is ace

[@NinjaPulls]

I'd recommend trying a 2H back bar, since Stampede and Carve are such great abilities. Dual Wield passives mean that front bar Daggers are strongest, but this matters less since we're not using any weapon abilities on that bar. Everyone should stack at melee range in trials anyway, so that makes no difference (except vAS, where I usually have a ranged front bar). But if you prefer Staves or are waiting for the other weapons to drop, feel free to play that way - it's not a big DPS loss. Hope that helps!

Yeah, sounds like you're missing something. Impossible to say what it is for sure, but stats, passives and weaving speed are usually the main culprits. Good luck!

[@theditto69]

@@NinjaPulls weaving speed. Like a heartbeat, metronome set to 55bpm to time cooldowns and the light attack doesn’t go off until I release the controller trigger. Right? Ugh. Anyway. Let me know if I have the weaving concepts down. Slower or faster bpm. Let me know

[@Yellownicolas]

Pillar + Kinras instead of Rele + Whorl is a viable option?

[@NinjaPulls]

Yeah that works. Obviously the Major Berserk from Kinras will be wasted when your Atronach is up (or when other Sorcs drop it). Also, be aware that the cooldown on Pillar is 10s, unlike the 18s Whorl cooldown which lines up with the rotation. You'll either lose a bit of proc damage, or you'll need to track the Pillar cooldown and barswap to activate it more often.

[@Yellownicolas]

@@NinjaPulls sounds good, I just love that sustain, seems preety good to keep that up

[@Yellownicolas]

@@NinjaPulls maybe pillar + mother’s sorrow for that rotation would fit better, right?

[@jjohnson7397]

What changes to this build would you recommend for Orb Killer in vCR+ trials?

[@NinjaPulls]

Apart from an Inferno front bar, it's hard to say. It depends SO much on the group. I know that sounds like a cop-out answer, but I'd hate to offer advice which turns out not to be applicable/relevant. Replacing Relequen with Yandir is a popular choice, especially if the group is stacking everything together. But if you're nuking minis one by one, Relequen is still awesome. Personally, I often use Tzogvin in vCR, and that creates room for another skill on the front bar. You could go with a shield or heal if you're leaving the stack to kill Orbs. Or you could go with Force Pulse as a secondary spammable for when enemies are stacked. I've also had fun with Bound Armaments when I played Orb killer - you can't afford to use it constantly, but if you stack it up before Orbs spawn you can store up the damage and yeet one of the Orbs almost immediately! That's pretty satisfying. Tons more options, but I hope that helps!

[@clash505]

Well done

[@NinjaPulls]

Thanks!

[@MeR-md1jq]

Thanks for the video. Do you have any recommendations for a non-trial gear setup?

[@NinjaPulls]

Sure! There are a LOT of options. Swap Relequen for Pillar of Nirn (Falkreath Hold) and Whorl for Aegis Caller (Unhallowed Grave) and that should work in much the same way, without a major DPS loss. And if you're looking for a Light Armor set, there's always good old Mother's Sorrow!

[@muratakafuzzyfirefly3716]

This was what I was looking for... thanks for the question and thanks for the answer..

[@bigcbmc2984]

Could you make a build using maelstrom staff back bar. Or a build that’s more ranged. Hate being up close. And is there anyway to hit these numbers without relequens.

[@NinjaPulls]

You can easily adapt the build to use Blockade with a vMA back bar, but then you lose Carve, Maw, sustain gets worse and you lose a fair amount of damage in the process. It all adds up. As for Relequen, it isn't mandatory - it's just slightly stronger than the alternatives (except for Riptide, but that's ill suited to a Magicka setup). Plus Relequen is so easy to use it's kind of a no-brainer unless you're switching targets regularly.

[@xboxgamerz22]

Can you do one bar restoration staff dps necromancer and ice warden only as well

[@tommyt7566]

I musta missed it but is this all Stamina, Magicka or hybrid? Thanks!

[@NinjaPulls]

It's definitely a Magicka Sorcerer. But the gap between Magicka and Stamina shrank a LOT in 2022, so many of the same things apply.

[@jasonbader4441]

Quick comment...If using Relequen on a magic class, the perfected version doesn't help the damage because the 5th bonus is Stamina.

[@NinjaPulls]

Correct. Perfected makes almost no difference either way.

[@marcofillip875]

I just remembered that i only did 20k dmg with my magicasorc when i won the VMA the first time. 🤣

[@jasonmpease]

Is this build changing much in the patch this month?

[@NinjaPulls]

We'll lose about 2k DPS from Light Attacks, but otherwise this will work exactly the same. Unless of course ZOS do something cheeky on patch day!

[@NinjaPulls]

Oh yeah, I should add that Mages' Wrath will deal significantly more AOE damage next patch, so any fight with adds you'll probably want to use it.

[@markhiermann7708]

How would I tweak the build, to get the same results if I do not have a whorl greatsword, I have all the jewelry, daggers, inferno staff, and armor so far.

[@NinjaPulls]

If you have the Maul or Battle Axe you could use that instead - you spend so little time on the back bar that it won't make much difference. Alternatively, you could drop the monster set for a Slimecraw 1-piece, and equip Pillar of Nirn or Whorl on both front bar weapons, then use an Arena weapon set on the back bar. Maelstrom Greatsword or Blackrose Daggers, for example. Those are probably the first things I would try. Good luck with it! 😎

[@Sayishere]

Hi my friend nice video. Just a question, so. I use this build and skills for trials but what if the trial has aoe or cleaving opportunities , this build has good aoe? would I change skills in that case? If so what skill would I swap. Much appreciated :)

[@NinjaPulls]

Hey - glad you like the video. If you're talking about trash pulls then check the mini-guide in the description. There's a VERY strong trash setup in there. If you're asking about cleaving down adds in a boss fight, there are other classes who do this automatically (DK, Necro etc.). Scamp, Stampede, Hurricane and Carve all deal cleave damage, but Sorcerer generally excels at focusing a single target. Daedric Mines can be super strong if the adds are positioned just right, or you can add Mages' Wrath to the front bar (just replace Carve with Trap). That will give you a ton of cleave damage in execute (they buffed Mages' Wrath just last week, so it's worth looking into). Hope that helps!

[@Sayishere]

@@NinjaPulls Thank you

[@xgcdarkninja911]

Is there a good double destro sorc build that pulls good damage?

[@NinjaPulls]

Yes absolutely - this setup will work with double destro, for a start. But sustain is WAY harder without these Stamina DOTs, so I’d recommend keeping a 2H back bar and equipping an Inferno on the front bar if you really don’t want to play melee. A bow back bar also works. If your group isn’t bothering to provide penetration, then you can put Whorl pieces on the body to help with Magicka sustain, and so on. It all depends on the group.

[@xgcdarkninja911]

@@NinjaPulls Nirn Ring, neck and 2H back bar with Maelstrom front bar? I wanted to do DPS with destro using elemental weapon as my spammable but is dual wield really that much better to make destro obsolete now?

It's in the Daedric Summoning skill line. The base morph is called Daedric Curse.

[@Vazio3]

How much worse is bow back bar with Endless Hail + PI instead of carve and stampede?

[@NinjaPulls]

Good question. I haven't tested it, but it should be no more than 4-5k DPS behind. In shorter fights it might even catch up, because Carve doesn't really shine until the fight goes on for several minutes.

[@Vazio3]

@@NinjaPulls For a full ranged setup would you recommend Fire Staff + Bow or double staves? I assumed bow because of sustain. Thank you for the answer though :). I am mostly thinking about dungeons so the fights should be short enough to be worth it.

[@NinjaPulls]

@@Vazio3 Yeah I would assume that double staves would be tough to sustain in longer fights. Then again, if you're talking about dungeons you may be able to get away with it. There'll definitely be more testing once the new patch drops!

Go for it! 👍Your setup is your choice. I occasionally use Staves in content, but this video is about the EASIEST way to hit 125k+ and that involves pets, Daggers and a 2H.

[@tommyt7566]

NOT!!!

[@NinjaPulls]

I dunno about the PS servers, but there’s definitely no rush. Getting your first character levelled and set up is much easier after CP2.0 (I just did this on NA), so don’t worry too much about starting over. Maybe if there’s a particularly cheap deal on ESO, then you could always grab it for PC and give yourself a foothold in case you decide to switch. Hope that helps, and sorry I can’t give a more specific response!

[@kcgaidin]

is there a decent alternative to whorl for this build?

[@NinjaPulls]

At 8:38 I mention that Pillar of Nirn works just as well. It's just that Whorl lines up with the rotation so neatly. 😎

Sure, which gear set do you mean? The 5-piece gear sets I'm using are 'Arms of Relequen' from the Cloudrest trial, and 'Whorl of the Depths' from the Dreadsail Reef trial. But other sets can also work. You can get someone in your guild to craft you some gear - Law of Julianos, Innate Axiom, New Moon Acolyte and Claw of the Forest Wraith are all decent craftable options if that helps.

Hmm - I wonder how much more damage you'd get with the setup in this video (which is still relevant, by the way). Obviously there are lots of factors besides gear. Weaving speed and uptimes are common culprits, plus details like Mundus/CP which are easily missed.

@@NinjaPulls Before Necrom PTS, I was a necromancer main, I really like all the AoE it has as well as dots, and synergy with one of my favorite sets Azure Blight also i'm very much into the general vibe. Once Arcanist comes out though i'll probably switch to that, just because i'm so in love with the playstyle and aesthetic

[@UncleDaniel]

Easy? You should see stam necro rotation.

[@NinjaPulls]

Sure, to some extent it's down to the player. 👍Some people find it really hard to weave Frags, but personally I find this sorc rotation far easier than anything (that deals comparable damage). I actually play Stamcro much more than Magsorc, and I made a guide with a pretty straightforward 123k rotation. But it's nowhere near as simple or static as this one. Perhaps a bit more interesting though!

[@jefferywilliams2624]

I really hate these crystal frag loadouts

[@NinjaPulls]

🥺Haha, sorry - hope you'll forgive me for promoting it! I know some people hate weaving Frags, but since it was changed to self-proc it's been one of the best spams in the game. The cast time is a big reason my magsorc rotations are always so static - then the problem kinda goes away. But to each their own. Which spammable do you like to use?

[@reach_2002]

honestly hate the pets, wish it was another kind of skill line tbh pets are ugly and boring

[@NinjaPulls]

Yeah, the pets haven't helped magsorc's reputation. I think lots of players would ditch them if they weren't so strong!

[@varana]

Exactly that. I play a magsorc as my main, but boy, do I loathe it that pets are basically mandatory now. And when I'm tanking, I have a burning hatred for the Maw, so I don't like using it either. But they're objectively the best options, and that's effing annoying.

[@tikiranger3971]

It sucks having to use all those pets. Sorcs should be using elements, not pets. It just clutters everything. And I main a sorc. I hate the pet build but endure it.

[@NinjaPulls]

I don't even notice the pets except when the Twilight gets RIGHT in the middle of your screen, flapping around. That's distracting, but then I just move my camera. Also, without pets + Prey the magsorc would have almost no class identity at all, which would be a shame.

I’ll never use physical weapons on my sorc as I prefer Staff play styles but this build is incredibly interesting and looks very fun. Great video

[@NinjaPulls]

Thanks so much - glad you like it. Yeah the setup works regardless of weapons. Just be aware that sustain might be tricky without Stampede and Carve. You could always keep the 2H back bar and use a staff on the front bar - that’s what I’d do if I needed range, for example. Good luck with it.

[@NinjaPulls]

Yeah anything that you can back-bar will work fine. Whorl just fits with the 18s rotation, so we don’t even have to think about proccing it. Pillar of Nirn is stronger on paper, but you may have to track the cooldown to get decent uptimes.

[@Footballar09]

This is a fanatic video! I made a mag sorc 6 months ago but never got any actual sets or a rotation for it. Is there a way to make them a ranged build? I know stampede and cleave are still really strong but I wanted a double staff build to have ranged utility in group comps. I also loved the way you show the rotation! Super easy to follow, thank you!

[@NinjaPulls]

Thanks - appreciate the comment! Sure you can go ranged, but it's very rare that you *need* to have ranged damage in trials. It's handy in some dungeon fights, but even then it's 'helpful' rather than strictly necessary. If you're up for trying it, I'd recommend keeping the 2H back bar as it is and swapping the Daggers for an Inferno Staff on the front bar. That lets you attack from a distance where needed, and means you only need to be at melee range for a second or two now and then. Best of all, you don't lose Stampede, Carve and Trap (you can also run Tzogvin or use the Lightweight Beast Trap morph. Even in vAS+2 that setup works great. If you absolutely want to go fully ranged, then try to avoid Staves on both bars. Much smarter to use a Bow on the back bar - then you'll still have enough Stamina abilities in the rotation for sustain to work. Double Staves makes this much harder. Good luck!

[@Footballar09]

@@NinjaPulls thank you so much for the response that makes a lot of sense a friend of mine hitting 100k on console said something similar. Also Crystal Frags is ranged so you’d be fine just spamming that. Keep carve and stampede for gap closing is great. I’m also thinking of the orbs on cloud rest but swapping to inferno front would be sufficient but most of the fight that’s not needed. I am sharing this vid with my guild discords. Please continue to make this excellent content. The bar timers with the skills were just perfect. I would love and updated stamplar that doesn’t suck! When jabs got nerfed into the ground I stopped playing DPS on my Stamplar. Any help there is greatly appreciated!

@@iamcosmicdude hmm, maybe my problem was doing 2 skills together? Does it make that much of a difference?

[@iamcosmicdude]

@@Ares_Sorrow yes, big difference. The heavy attack pop at the end is the largest amount of damage, so it is priority to hit as many as possible. Skills are additional damage proc’d during the HAs.

Hey - welcome back to ESO! I'm hoping to have some more beginner guide stuff soon. But honestly all the gear here is fairly easy to get on normal difficulty. If you're not ready for trials but still want to try this build, then you can replace Whorl with Aegis Caller (Unhallowed Grave), and Relequen with Pillar of Nirn (Falkreath Hold) or Kinras (Black Drake Villa). But keep in mind that PTS is starting on Monday, so maybe don't go grinding out any sets until we know what's coming in the next Update.

With endless hail or something... Did u say runed carv? What spell is that? =)

[@NinjaPulls]

Most raid leads will want you to stack at melee, so keep in mind that range is rarely useful in trials. But I get it - sometimes it's nice to have. I'd suggest using a bow back bar though - double staves will make sustain tricky. You could still use exactly the same rotation, just swap Stampede for Endless Hail. Good luck with it. 😎
