The Sorcerer page on the website has been updated: eso-pvp-builds.com/sorcerer/ Additional notes: You can also use the shield script rather than the heal on Ulfsild's Contingency. Both work so try it out I'd say. Another good option next to Ulfsild's and Shroud is Vigor, I feel like I didn't emphasize enough that you can still run that too, even if you do already have minor resolve from bound aegis. Again it depends on what feels best for you so try things out!
Good stuff! With the spam and frag proc Sorceror is now Bernie Mac in the movie Head of State just slapping and backhanding everyone with that off hand ☠️
I’m running 5x Shattered Fate, 5x New Moon, 1x Gaze of Sithis and 1x Selene. 5.5kSpell Dmg buffed and 17.7k spell pen with 28k/24k resistances buffed. Does really well but was looking for different setups. Might try this.
Tbh I still think crushing weapon is better, you get major breach plus spell orbs and a free shield while blocking, plus you can use it as a delayed burst where you use the skill without light attacking before and then you light attack with another skill and if you’re quick enough they will get hit with the crushing weapon light attack and second skill all at the same time
bar space is one reason, secondly it's not really a good execute. It's mostly used to steal kills in bgs. It can work in cyro too but imo it happens too frequently that people don't die even when this explodes. Also it doesn't really work as an execute because of it's delay, it's more of a burst skill which you apply after casting curse.
Any thoughts on ways to implement move speed? I'm trying celerity in place of pains refuge. Any thoughts on where hurricane be slotted? I'm running your scribing with new mythic build.
Thank you, did you try soul burst scribing skill with shield, HOT and minor courage instead of healing contingency? I was looking for more damage too and Minor courage is very good
@@John-je7xi Having concussed proc more often is nice, see it's effect description. Also deals more DMG on sorc. That said imo physical DMG glyph works too so up to you.
Kia ora, is there a one bar build you would recommend? I play on OCE and the lag of pvp often glitches being able to bar swap smoothly. Ive been play a way of fire and scathing mage oakensoul sorc and getting alright results, but i think its an outdated build and would love your thoughts on improving it given limitations of bar swapping
What are your thoughts on using Druid's Resurgence for your Signature Script on Wield Soul? The sustain is amazing but would you say the damage bonus from the class script outmatches it?
@@RiderShade Since sustain is pretty easy to get with various ways, and I'm looking to push more DMG this patch, I value the class script more for a spammable.
Hi Malcolm, does the extra shock dmg from the class mastery script apply to the original target oO ... I didnt farm the mastery scraps as I assumed the script would deal its damage to other targets in proximity!
@@carlospapicolon9888 Yeah it seems like its to max the shield spam and have more gas to spam skills with even though skills scale higher with dmg than max stat, the exception of course being light attacks that are now dmg capped and pet dmg.
I love the build. I might make some changes due to the need to grind Alliance Rank and use Mora's whisper as my mythic. (my mages guild lorebook is maxed out) I appreciate pointing to what scribing we should do. I've been wondering what to farm or look for in the vendors.
I've been running a DW setup with the DW scribed skill as the spammable the class script is actually really good in combination with that skill (finally gives sorc some actual AoE too) alongside heal soul. How are you liking contingency as a heal? It always seemed kinda lackluster (outside the 8% damage reduction) to me. Is ward carrying healing still or is contingency actually holding its own? Speaking of ward, been seeing some crying on the forums over it lately, any thoughts on ward and if you were to adjust it what would you like to see done to keep it strong but balanced?
how do you compare your build 3 with crafty alfiq max magicka build? im considering swapping over- but short on transmutes. appreciate your work as always
I use both builds. Crafty front bar vitality backbar chundan ms, trainee chest and death dealer. And u can use rally cry instead of crafty you will be more tanky with crafty.
Hey this is a great guide thanks! I was was wondering which potions you arr using - i didnt seem to catch that in your setups - or do you just adjust situationally between immovability, detection, tristat and heroism? Also - i tried the S&S version tonight and got some great results in bgs and cyrodiil - ty for such an indepth guide!
@@Andy72-f3w I excluded it because in my opinion the max mag builds work better. But yes, the max health build works too this patch and if it is your favorite I see no problem in continuing using it.
I just enjoy the fact that high magic sorc is something we have once more. Because I am pretty sure at one point high magic wasn’t too strong. Maybe I am wrong.

I've been trying to switch from Crushing Weapon to either Shocking or Sundering Soul (with the Sorc class script+Major Breach) because it's objectively the stronger option, but something about the feel of casting it is, to me at least, just so much clunkier than Crushing that I just do not like it as much. Crit set-wise, I'm thinking Perfected Null Arca from the new trial might slap on Sorc, it's apparently a bigger proc than tarnished even with that wasted Slayer line.
The started of the video most likely is Build 1 since I don't see rally cry & toward the end of the video Build 2, has rally cry and the new mythic Neck.
Hey, thanks for the video, very useful for returning player like me that are lost with the end of stam/magika era ! Got a few questions regarding the asylum set up : - Any reason you are using a lightning asylum staff instead of fire ? - Is the gaze of sithis a dead mythic ? Or can I use it instead of DDF (and use boundless to get defense buff).

I was told u need to run the lover mundus... Why shadow over lover
Your sorcerer builds saved my life
These days I played with Magsorc in pvp and I was surprised, Magsorc is very good and fun to play and finally I can face tougher classes with him.
Ac1do master sorcerer
It's cuz Sorc IS the tougher class now

Stupid noob, it isn't better
Also works with the power overload ult
Thank you malcolm 💪
I have almost the exact build but confused how you have 20k more mag and 1k more Spell damage...
does anchorite cruelty still a good option?
why crafty alfiq if you lose the 4 and 5 pieces when u switch bar ?
What do you think about the execute skill ? May you explain why you don't consider slotting in any build ? Thanks !

Around the target it says
valid question! i too am wondering the same
I dont understand why you have a build with max mag 5 piece set when you have no pets on that build, what am I missing?
There’s a passive where when you have no pets you get 10% more magicka
So with no new patch more mag u have means more dam and not only they but more mag I have helps with hard ward it heals u now

For Bound Aegis, do u ever cast that skill?
No u don't cast it it's just there cause of what it does
thank you!!!
how can i get class scripts fast? i cant even make the skill without 50?
Through normal or vet trials. Just check the group finder, it is an epic tool.
Class Script Scraps can be found in rewards granted by completing Trials, Dungeons, Infinite Archive, Arenas, PvP, and Master Writs.
What about Engine Guardian? Is it still good in PvP? I ahvent played for years.
It's decent but there's better sustain sets and monster helms that give Stam and mag recovery for a 1 piece
@@Deathquidox Any recomendations?
Engine guardian counts as a pet, so you don't get the passive that increases stam for having zero pets

If you watch the video he literally shows 3 builds.
good. day.
Buy crowns
82 mil gold, and u still have purple crafty jewlery 😂
Maybe thats why im always broke, i need everything golded out 😅
Half Cyro is playing mag sorc, so annoying….
Until they buff another class, then they all go to that one. Same ole same ole with eso pvp.
Please make a 1 bar build
Decent.
Decent comment
Wish they didn't swing so hard. Feels like sorc went from underpowered to completely unfair.
On PS lots of people running tanky builds to roleplay as someone who doesn't die instantly.
ok but build?
first
Been running 5 heartlands and 5 spell stragerist with 2 naga shaman, it's not meta but it's fun sharpen fb powered bb
I feel like this build has literally no damage lol
I'm open for suggestions
You must have wrong traits/weights or passives
Sorc in pvp is just streak.. and running off
So many paid actors yikes
