Welcome to DottzGaming.com’s Stamina Warden Build PvE, Nature’s Commander, for the Elder Scrolls Online! This build is intended for general PvE, vDungeons and Trials.

The Stamina Warden is a great all around class providing both high AoE and single target damage all while sustaining really well thanks to the passives and skills that the warden offers such as the bull netch. The class offers a ton of healing through the Green Balance tree and for that reason is one of the more forgiving stamina classes for a beginner to start with.

Gear

Attributes

All points into stamina.

Skills

Main bar – Dual Wield: Subterranean Assault, Fetcher Infection, Barbed Trap, Cutting Dive, Deadly Cloak, Wild Guardian

Back bar – Bow: Bull Netch, Endless Hail, Poison Injection, Bird of Prey, Resolving Vigor, Wild Guardian

Vampire vs. Werewolf vs. Mortal

For this build we play as a mortal, as neither vampire nor werewolf give us anything the build needs.

Use a light attack before every skill

BS = Bar Swap

• The best way to play this build is with a dynamic rotation, using Sub Assault every 6 seconds, applying all DoTs and re-applying them right before they fall off, and if neither of those things need to be done using Cutting Dive. However, if you’re looking for a more static rotation, this is what I would recommend:
  • Sub Assault, Barbed Trap, BS, Bull Netch, Endless Hail, Poison Injection, BS, Fetcher Infection, Deadly Cloak, Sub Assault, Cutting Dive x6
• Prioritize hitting Sub Assault every 6 seconds. Make sure to let this ability go off before you activate it, otherwise it will not deal damage.
• Aim for 100% uptime on Barbed Trap, this will ensure we are getting the most out of our critical strikes.
• Look to cast your ultimate on cooldown during each boss fight, unless you should be saving your ult, cast it!
• Activate your potions on cooldown, this will ensure you have zero sustain issues, and you will have high uptimes on your buffs!
