This is the first tutorial I've seen that covers the raw basics of the class rather than just saying "Put these abilities together and you're strong." It's refreshing having a build that can be understood by players with less than 100 hours on Arcanist, and the explanations of not just how each ability works, but WHY they're so good together is a breath of fresh air. Great video overall!
I finally built this exact build last night. Only difference are some of the armor traits and item quality(weapons are legendary but armor is purple). Definitely feels good in PVP. Man that rallying cry crit resist is *chefs kiss*
hey Dude Great Build and Vid. Only One Problem/Tip Since 99% of viewers Have No Clue Where the Skills Are that You Advice to Use. would be nice if You exactly show from Which Tree you got The Skill From. There is 3 Skills with The Word Runic in it. Had literally no clue Where to runic sunder From.
Dtunee / Ladie Legolas here… Lucky you. The devs Fucked my build in the ass this patch 😢 This build you got here is hard as hell to put down. Especially now that I got nerfed to the grave. Nice build 👍🏿
Hey I have some questions about this build my stats normally match up with yours when I try out one of your builds but this one my max up and recovery for everything is much lower than yours.
Imperial fits Arcanist really well. I love my Dark elves but the sustain on Imp is perfect. Question, why do you have a target dummy on the stairs? Lol
Simply because near there is where I stand to show off my stats and skills, and if I need to proc something in combat I simply can just hit it without leaving the area
Still leveling my imperial arcanist. Looking forward to try this set up! Why do you run resto on the back bar? You dont use any resto skills right? Or is it for te resource return from heavy attacks and then procing major mending?
I love Imperial the survivability is amazing! As for the Resto simply it’s for the passives more Mag restore from heavies that also grants Major Mending +16% more healing plus a passive that increases your healing by 15% when below 30% health just insane survivability
@@Hexapug yea I’m leveling my stam arcanist. Currently level 40(I’ve been popping 150% xp boost tokens). I used your Stam DK video to help me build my own and love it. I run deadly set, selene monster set, and runecarvers blaze. I can get my weapon spell damage to about 6.5k and crit chance to 38%. My stam recovery is sort of low at 1000, but popping ultimates and heavy attacks keeps my sustain up. I’ve thought about replacing deadly with wretched vitality(closer to your build) to help with sustain during a fight.
This still viable today? Took a 6 month break and came back and started a new stamarc. Not a lot of good build videos on this class out for pvp so still tryna grasp this class and play style
Yeah it’s still real good, you can replace RC for Wretched Vitality back bar for unlimited resources, also that lets you swap out Vigor for Runeguard of Freedom spam and that is that cheesiest skill of the entire kit Arc defensively is the best class in the game best sustain and even crazier healing however it does suffer from its damage it’s good damage but just not great damage, especially solo really good in group though
Mainly because of the slight cast time it can be very wonky to cast the Tentacle, also I run the Mag Morph to be more of a debuff since it can make them take 11% more damage from you
how do you purchase the way of the fire armor? I cant seem to find it in guilds to purchase, like what key words do i search? says 0 results when i tried "way of fire" or "the way of fire" etc....
but how tf do you sustain this build, I tried it and it has 0 sustain I don't spam anything, I only use cruxes when I absolutely need to I keep buffs up and I've been going through stacks of pots much more than any other class like wtf?
Is it me or are Arcanists unkillable on Eso did a battle ground the other dau and everyone who played one had 35-50k health but still ridiculous damage and take no damage in return with shields and what ever else they have insane
Because like stated in the video players can increase their Crit Damage, on my NightBlade open world builds I do 100%+ bonus damage from crits, so I prefer crit mitigation but like said in the video if you value other traits go ahead it’s personal preference
Bro jus calls shit op yet doesnt understandhow easy it is to counterplay. All ive plyedis arcanit since drop. It frags if people hit you. The counter is just avoiding you.
I prefer 3 3 1, if possible always have 3 Heavy 3 for survivability it gives extra Tankiness and Health, and then 3 of your Main weight Light for Mag and Med for Stam, and then 1 of the other weight for Undaunted Mettle

would be nice if You exactly show from Which Tree you got The Skill From.
There is 3 Skills with The Word Runic in it.
Had literally no clue Where to runic sunder From.
If u google the skill u can find out what skill tree it comes from and it’s morphs
Always great build videos! Thnx for the build
Great job on this break down of class
Yess finally!! Thank you for the build. 👍
Funny last night I went way of fire n wrechet n loved it truly I'm definitely going to try rally

ESO circle of life ! All our builds get fucked in the ass at some point. 😁
@@lost_witness_8495 Lol. True. 🤣
Good video, good content, good music, you get my like once again!
Like your builds , copied your stam sorc and it wrecks gonna do the same here . Great content 👍
Thanks for the support!
nice build, thx you!
I like that it’s not a ssc, vate, zaans

Never disappointed 👏

Makes sense, thanks. Cool build by the way 😃
Skills definitely helped

Thoughts on using wretched vitality and bloodspawn sets on the stamina arcanist?
You would never die lol, the damage would be a little lacking with Balorgh’s but it would definitely be fun Ulti spamming and infinite sustain

What could i replace if i wanna add weapon buff with brutality/sorcery and use tri-pots?

I’m just curious isn’t your tentacle an execute? Why keep 2 on the bar? Or is it because it has a slight channel for the tentacle?
Mainly because of the slight cast time it can be very wonky to cast the Tentacle, also I run the Mag Morph to be more of a debuff since it can make them take 11% more damage from you
how do you purchase the way of the fire armor? I cant seem to find it in guilds to purchase, like what key words do i search? says 0 results when i tried "way of fire" or "the way of fire" etc....
It’s a bit weird but search for “the fire” and it will pop up
I'm pretty sure it's not 60% ots 20% for the Flail amd then 6% +5% for all skills
On my toon the Abyssal Sea Ult tooltip halves in Cyro. Is this correct?
You know that might be correct I think it halves in PvP
Why are the meta armor weights 3/3/1?
did they ever nerf way of the fire procing off dots?
From what I’ve seen no, it’s still proc’n off Weapon DoT’s
but how tf do you sustain this build, I tried it and it has 0 sustain
I don't spam anything, I only use cruxes when I absolutely need to
I keep buffs up and I've been going through stacks of pots much more than any other class
like wtf?
You have to live off the crux heals, you can’t spam the stam heal, you have to learn to weave them in you can’t have them maxed at 3 all the time
Hello 👋 can you make a good one bar build with this class for pvp 🙈
Is it me or are Arcanists unkillable on Eso did a battle ground the other dau and everyone who played one had 35-50k health but still ridiculous damage and take no damage in return with shields and what ever else they have insane
I just go in, get stunned and die instantly every match lol I really need some better gear :(
can i use the dagger or sword instead of the clubs?
It all depends, if you don’t have the Maces run Daggers and swap out Runic Sunder for Caltrops
@@Hexapugthank you man 🤙
Build look good but i dont wanna run the trash pots :(
Why bother wearing that much impen when you have Rallying? Might as well put on one or two pieces of well-fitted
Because like stated in the video players can increase their Crit Damage, on my NightBlade open world builds I do 100%+ bonus damage from crits, so I prefer crit mitigation but like said in the video if you value other traits go ahead it’s personal preference
i love the skin of your caracter what is this armor skin ?
For the skin I used “Amber Plasm Skin” with the Psijic tattoos
@@Hexapug oh thx , and the armor skin ?
Build is mid, i tried it out.
game is mid. tried it out
have u tried ravager set?
You know I was just thinking after I had just finished editing my video last night, sounds really good I definitely will try it out
Even old school rattlecage works, over 400 total WD and allows a extra slottable so you can run Tri pots also.
@@BuRnSy-85💪
ravager is better than way of fire. way of fire is mid tier. I don't personally recommend WoF on arc.
Bro jus calls shit op yet doesnt understandhow easy it is to counterplay. All ive plyedis arcanit since drop. It frags if people hit you. The counter is just avoiding you.
Busted ass class needs to be nerfed in pvp areas
What is the best in slot : (3H 2M 2L ) or another combination like (5H 1M 1L) ? Nice build !
I prefer 3 3 1, if possible always have 3 Heavy 3 for survivability it gives extra Tankiness and Health, and then 3 of your Main weight Light for Mag and Med for Stam, and then 1 of the other weight for Undaunted Mettle
we need a writtin guide pleasE :)
