Warlocks are one of the most durable DPS classes from a variety of talents and passives, as well as having excellent mobility through Demonic Circle: Teleport, Burning Rush, and Demonic Gateway. Sorcerer is one of the best DPS classes in Elder Scrolls Online. It's ranked #4 on our PvE DPS Tier List for ESO, but offers much more build diversity, as Sorcerers can be played as Support, Healers, and Stamina-based DPS as well. This build revolves around high Magicka, maximizing Spell Damage, and the use of Destruction Staff.
Warden Class
Build Overview
Magicka Warden is a very solid spell-caster class based on Elemental Damage and Pets. Our build revolves around Eternal Guardian Ultimate and Master Architect set for maximum DPS. Magicka Warden requires more experience and understanding the rotation to dish out decent DPS, but in good hands, this build truly shines. Warden on average will deal less damage than other Magicka classes but provides very high Magicka pool, good self-sustain, self-healing, and a fresh and unique playstyle. When it comes to picking your Race, both Breton and High Elves will do the job just fine. Both these Races affect your Magicka, and while Breton will provide slightly better defensive utility, High Elves should be used by players that are focused on maximizing their DPS.
Below you will find our recommended Skills and Sets for the Eternal Guardian variation of this build.
| Pros | Cons |
| Well-rounded toolkit | Hard to reach competitive DPS levels |
| Good AoE Damage | Difficult rotation |
| Good self-sustain | |
| Vast Magicka pool |

Primary Skillset
[Fire Staff - for general usage and your primary DPS]
| Winter's Revenge (Warden: Winter's Embrace, morphed from Impaling Shards) - your core AoE DoT which deals very nice damage for a Frost spell. It also has a chance to apply Minor Maim to all targets in its radius. It lasts for 12 seconds and should be kept up at all times both during single-target and AoE fights |
| Elemental Weapon (Guild: Psijic Order, morphed from Imbue Weapon) - grants increased damage on your next Light Attack and causes Elemental ailment to be inflicted on your target. It's a very solid single-target DPS spell |
| Fletcher Infection (Warden: Animal Companions, morphed from Swarm) - very strong single-target DoT. It deals higher damage with ever cast making it shine in longer fights |
| Blue Betty (Warden: Animal Companions, morphed from Betty Netch) - very useful buff which helps with Magicka resource management. It restores Magicka for 25 seconds and also increases your Spell Damage |
| Inner Light (Guild: Mages Guild, morphed from Magelight) - Passively increases your Magicka and Spell Critical rating. Also can be activated to reveal invisible enemies which can be useful during some encounters |
| Ultimate: Eternal Guardian (Warden: Animal Companions, morphed from Feral Guardian) - Pet skill which summons a powerful Bear to aid you in combat. Used in combination with Master Architect set, it grants you terrific DPS and makes up for this builds high potential for Trials and Dungeons. As a Pet skill, it has to be socketed on both your skill bars |
Secondary Skillset
[Fire Staff - crowd-control and secondary DoT DPS]
| Elemental Blockade (Weapon: Destruction Staff, morphed from Wall of Elements) - insane DoT and extra crowd-control. One of the core spell for pretty much every Magicka build. Also provides decent group utility by increasing the damage all your group members deal to affected enemies |
| Deep Fissure (Warden: Animal Companions, morphed from Scorch) - the deadliest weapon in Magicka Warden's kit. It can potentially deal insane damage and also reduces affected enemies Spell Resistance, but at the same time, it's hardest to master and aim correctly. It will damage and apply a debuff to enemies in front of you after a three-second delay |
| Harness Magicka (Armor: Light Armor, morphed from Annulment) - grants a protective shield which absorbs damage and restores Magicka. A must-have for this build since Magicka Warden has very defenses |
| Channeled Acceleration (Guild: Psijic Order, morphed from Accelerate) - a very powerful buff which increases your Critical Damage and Movement Speed for 36 seconds |
| Inner Light (Guild: Mages Guild, morphed from Magelight) - in order to benefit from the Passive effect it has to be socketed on both your skill bars |
| Ultimate: Eternal Guardian (Warden: Animal Companions, morphed from Feral Guardian) - which has to be socketed also on the secondary bar |

🎯 How often does this Rating get updates?
Dps Magicka Necromancer
We know perfectly well that outdated data is useless. That is why wecheck these numbers every single day to verify that it is up to date and then weupdateit the moment anything changes. You can see the dates of both events at the top ofthispage.
🤔 Are these DPS Rankings based on Simcraft orLogs?
They are based on both. And even more than that. Our processinvolvesrunning thousands of simulations with Simulationcraft (an open-source tool thatmodelsclass mechanics to estimate damage-per-second performance in different situations)andalso using tools like Bloodmallet and Raidbots to research various gearcombinations.Then we compare our results to the data retrieved from actual in-game logs of thebestplayers of each class (for this purpose we look up global leaderboards on sites likeRaider.io and WoWProgress). By combining both theoretical and statistical data weaim toprevent variance due to human factors (e.g. players underperforming) whilemaintaining aclose connection to realistic scenarios because many factors must be taken into theaccount. We also constantly monitor player communities like Icy Veins, Wowhead,Reddit,Method and official Blizzard World of Warcraft Forums to keep in touch with publicopinion so we can tell if our data is correct.
