Title: Awake
Listen on YouTube: youtu.be/LDDSUcol3_A
Race, Mundus Stone, Food:
- preference of Mundus Stone shifts slightly towards the Thief.
Setups 1 is as viable before. The adjustments for Vampirism can be disregarded.
Expect a 2-3% DPS increase for each parse.
Blue CP Slottables as before. Master-at-arms as a good replacement for Backstabber when needed.
Build alterations which could be more performant:
DW/Bow setup:
5x Deadly Strikes / Kinra's / Advancing Yokeda (DW front)
vMA Bow
5x Relequen
1x Harpooner's Wading Kilt
1x Slimecraw
Sul-Xanβs Torment is looking to be an interesting new 5pc set for certain situations.

Thanks for checking out this Stamina Templar PVE Build (originally) for the Flames of Ambition DLC, but also with adjustments for Blackwood, for The Elder Scrolls Online.
We also show any build adjustments that you'll want to make, with a more risk/reward-based vampire setup (no longer so useful in Blackwood).
Thanks to Porky (a.k.a Hahayes, or @Porkkanalaatikko in-game), for providing us with the Stamplar footage!
Thanks to Freez for providing some really cool graphics for the channel moving forward!
Thanks also to Jaise for some of the extra clips, kicking off a new video library!

Title: Beautiful
Listen on YouTube: youtu.be/ss6SqkpqItY
Race, Mundus Stone, Food:
- preference of Mundus Stone shifts slightly towards the Thief.
Key class changes:
- Death Knell: Reduced the amount of Critical Chance granted from this passive to 4% per Grave Lord ability slotted, down from 10%.
Setups 1, 2 and 3 are all still viable as before.
Add Stampede for 2H
Expect a 2-3% DPS increase for each parse.
Blue CP slottables may remain the same. Master-at-arms is a good contender if you need to replace Backstabber.
Harpooner's Wading Kilt mythic (in place of a 1x Monster Set Piece) in combinations where you previously had the 2x monster set-pieces.
Sul-Xanβs Torment is looking to be an interesting new 5pc set for certain situations.

Race, Mundus Stone, Food:
- preference of Mundus Stone shifts slightly towards the Thief.
Setups 1, 2 and 3 are all still viable as before.
Add Stampede for 2H
Expect a 2-3% DPS increase for each parse.
Blue CP slottables may remain the same. Master-at-arms is a good contender if you need to replace Backstabber.
Harpooner's Wading Kilt mythic (in place of a 1x Monster Set Piece) in combinations where you previously had the 2x monster set-pieces.
Sul-Xanβs Torment is looking to be an interesting new 5pc set for certain situations.

Race, Mundus Stone, Food:
- still more or less the same. Preference of Mundus Stone shifts slightly towards the Thief.
Gear:
- 5x Sorrow, 5x Siroria (inferno or dual wield), 1x Slimecraw, 1x Harpooner's Wading Kilt (new mythic), vMA Inferno Staff
- For Z'en you can pretty much do the same but replace either of the above 5pc sets. Z'en continues to be better value when front-barred with weapon
- Bahsei's and Diamond's Victory are two new viable sets
Rotation / Skills:
- no significant changes here, as before!
Blue CP Slottables:
- Fighting Finesse, Deadly Aim, Master-at-arms, Backstabber (Thaumaturge as first choice backup)
Damage Comparison estimate for Blackwood:
- If Flames of Ambition set and rotation here, expect:

Thanks for checking out this collection of Magicka Dragonknight PVE Builds (originally) for the Flames of Ambition DLC, but also with adjustments for Blackwood, for The Elder Scrolls Online.
Here, with the help of Smex (Elements ESO), we showcase two popular Magicka Dragonknight Builds. This includes one full damage build, and one build that best incorporates Z'en's Redress, a popular support set for Magicka Dragonknight damage dealers. Smex often posts builds and parses, so do check him out!
Smex raids with Strictly Business on PC EU, and is a console transfer from the Playstation EU server.

Here, with the help of Saligia, we showcase two strong Magicka Nightblade Builds. There is a mix of ranged and melee, and with a rotation that works perfectly with Mechanical Acuity, and equally well with other setups too.
See Saligia's Channel for more PVE Builds:

Setup 1 - 5x Acuity (Inferno Front Bar), 5x Siroria, 2x Zaan, Maelstrom Inferno Staff
CMX Parse - imgur.com/a/WIq9Da3
CMX Build - imgur.com/a/a4ZErHX
Top 4 Blue CP Slottables - Deadly Aim, Thaumaturge, Fighting Finesse, Backstabber
Static Rotation (slot inner light instead of degeneration for this):
Static rotation
Start:
- Dark Shades - Siphoning Attacks
- Merciless Resolve
- Barbed Trap
Repeat:
- Unstable Wall of Elements - Twisting Path - Shade/Trap
- Crippling Grasp - Spam/Incap - Bow Proc (Ideally you'll want Acuity to proc on this line every other rotation)
- Spam x5 - Bow Proc
Spam = Elemental Weapon (Alternative Spammables include the Vampire Spammable, Swallow Soul, or Concealed Weapon).
Maintain skills at 25% health (or ensure they're up one last time in shorter fights) - Barbed Trap, Twisting Path, Unstable Wall of Elements, Dark Shades. Spam Impale
If you want to use degeneration, then cast it after crippling grasp, and delay the incap by one.

Thanks for checking out this collection of Magicka Necromancer PVE Builds (originally) for the Flames of Ambition DLC, but also with adjustments for Blackwood for The Elder Scrolls Online. These are primarily aimed towards 12-person trials but can be adjusted to suit any PVE content.
Here, we showcase two Magicka Necromancer Builds. We have a classic ranged 'DOT' Magicka Necromancer Build, which you may have seen in recent time. In addition, we have a Vampire Build, which involves high-risk, high-reward gameplay - popular for those really looking to push the limits.

Expect a 2-3% DPS increase for each parse.
Blue CP Slottables:
- Fighting Finesse, Deadly Aim, Master-at-arms, Backstabber (Thaumaturge / Biting Aura as backups)

This is a run by Brad's Brides on PC EU, absolutely demolishing the previous world record by a sizeable 1 second (held by 4D, PC NA), which dated back to Greymoor, around half a year ago during the Thrassian meta.
Haven't really played too much since last August, so glad to have recently taken Magicka Warden for a spin in this group. Magicka Warden probably isn't top DPS for such short boss and trash fights, with the current prebuffs available e,g Elfbane Destro, but I try to balance it out in other ways.
The current 'score pushing' meta of every DD using Vampire Toggle and Pale Order Ring is... interesting, but ultimately not very rewarding as there is so much that can go wrong, and kinda diminishes a portion of a support player's gameplay.
Hope you enjoy the run.
Thanks!

Firstly we have the Dual Wield / Dual Wield setup, followed by a more traditional Dual Wield / Bow setup.
These build are a baseline, so can and should be adjusted for use in different situations. As they are now, they are primarily geared towards generic 12-man trials boss fights.
Thanks again to Rosskag for providing the footage.

Check out possible Blue CP allocations over at eso-u.com/champion-points

Both rotations shown are ~10 seconds long, due to many of the skills matching this duration.
Incap Strike should be used in a timely fashion, to provide you with the maximum burst. To make the most of it, usually, it will be one of the first skill to be used on your front bar. Then follow it up with re-application of your Rending and Soul Trap as soon as possible, if you haven't already, and also fit in as much Surprise Attack and Bow Procs as you can.
For Maarselok, you will need to Bash once every 7 or more seconds to proc its effect.
In short fights, aim to have DOTs (and relentless focus with 5x stacks, for the new crit damage buff) running one last time, before spamming Killer's Blade until the end.
Static Rotations:
Spam = Bow Proc or Surprise Attack or refreshing Relentless Focus (every three parts)
Static Rotation - DW/DW
Alternate part 1 and part 2.
Start (setup and the starting burst):
Dark Shades - Leeching Strikes - Relentless Focus - Barbed Trap
Part 1 (with incap)
Deadly Cloak - Soul Trap
Incap - Rending - Shadow Silk/Spam - Spam - Spam - Spam - Spam - Spam
Part 2 (without incap)
Deadly Cloak - Soul Trap
Rending - Soul Trap - Shadow Silk/Spam
Barbed Trap - Dark Shades - Leeching Strikes (if needed)
Spam - Spam - Spam (this last one if you didn't cast leeching)
At 25%, keep up Deadly Cloak, Barbed Trap, Dark Shades and spam Killer's Blade.
Static Rotation - DW/Bow
Alternate part 1 and part 2.
Start (setup and the starting burst):
Dark Shades - Leeching Strikes - Relentless Focus - Barbed Trap
Part 1 (w/ incap)
Arrow Barrage - Injection
Incap - Rending - Soul Trap - Spam - Spam - Spam - Spam - Spam
Part 2 (w/o incap)
Arrow Barrage - Injection
Rending - Soul Trap - Spam
Barbed Trap - Dark Shades - Leeching Strikes (if needed)

This is an OLD Aetherian Archive run from 1st November 2020 during the previous patch (Stonethorn) where I was helping out as a replacement.
We fell 2 seconds short of the world record set by 4D back in Greymoor (August 2020).
However, this is the highest score posted on the EU server, and for me personally.
There have been a bunch of changes to combat across the game, but the Magicka Nightblade builds and rotations etc isn't necessarily so different, with exception to the Ring of the Pale Order / Vampire Toggle builds out there.

This build is a baseline, so can and should be adjusted for use in different situations. Stamina Necromancer is right up there as a really strong DPS Spec in its own right, as well as bringing Major Vulnerability as a valuable debuff for the group; most valuable in 12-man trials.
Other weapon combinations below are viable too:
- Dual Wield / Bow
- Two-Hander / Bow
- Dual Wield / Dual Wield

Rotation
This rotation makes use of the Blackrose Prison Dual Wield Axes on the backbar, and a 2H weapon on the frontbar.
The Blackrose Prison Axes on the backbar to increase the twin blunt and blade bleeding effect. The main priority skills are:
- Deadly Cloak, grants the Spectral Cloak buff for up-to 12 seconds providing the ticks are doing damage.
- Blighted Blastbones, which should ideally be cast as close to 1-in-3 skills, as possible
Deadly Cloak, Rending Slashes, Carve and Consuming Trap each last 10 seconds so these skills, therefore, form the backbone of the rotation. Carve also has a relatively strong Direct Damage portion, so this can be recast early if more upfront damage is needed in favour of refreshing another DOT. If you are using the other morph of Carve (Brawler), then you can slot Skull (or Wrecking Blow) and use this instead, for single target damage situations.
Use Executioner as an execute, as early as 30% but definitely after 25% and reapply all DOTs, after that only keep your main skills active. In short fights where you won't get a full duration of DOT recasts, ensure DOTs are running one last time before 25%, then use Executioner the rest of the way.
Proposed Static Rotation (10-second rotation)
Start with Archer
Repeat:
Blastbones - Deadly Cloak - Rending Slashes
Blastbones - Barbed Trap/Archer (alternate) - Carve
Blastbones - Siphon - Soul Trap - Carve
In Execute, replace Carve and Soul Trap with Executioner. In the last few seconds of the fight, only cast Executioner.

Music promoted by FreeMusicWave.
Magicka Necromancer can be considered up there as one of the most useful, strongest and now certainly most popular specs for PVE, especially in 12-man trials due to the Major Vulnerability debuff, which has seen a change that possibly encourages more to be in a group than before.
Thanks to Bread and Milk, from PC NA, who has kindly shared some Magicka Necromancer Parses with 3 popular setups for 12-man trials for this patch:
- Elemental Catalyst (Front) with Mother's Sorrow (Body)
- Siroria (Front) with Mother's Sorrow (Body)
- Siroria (Front) with Medusa (Body)

Notes
Spammable = Force Pulse / Ricochet Skull, to be used instead of degeneration. Force Pulse can be more beneficial for Elemental Catalyst uptime and cleave damage. Ricochet Skull for stronger ST damage and necro passives.
Boneyard - Avid for parsing / 'selfish' play, Unnerving to provide Major Breach debuff
Meteor / Destro Ultimate for 'selfish' play, Colossus to provide Major Vulnerability debuff

Rotation
The video here showcases a more DOT-focused Magicka Necromancer rotation. The premise here is that if you cast enough Blastbones, then in-between you should have enough time to cast all of your DOTs. Cast Blastbones 1-in-3 skills whenever possible.
Keep up Mystic Orb, Skeletal Archer, Scalding Rune, Degeneration and Shock Siphon inbetween. Also do keep up Unstable Wall, but due to it's reasonably high direct damage portion, feel free to recast this early if there is nothing else that needs casting. Recasting Scalding Rune early works too!
Replace one of these DOTs (or Inner Light) for a spammable such as Skull or Force Pulse if you feel like you need one, which in certain fights would be beneficial. My first choice would probably be Degeneration. Wherever you feel that you will less frequently get the full value out of DOT casts, I would go with a spammable.
In execute, you can keep this rotation up, since the passive crit chance bonus will do the heavy lifting for you!

Skills
- Front Bar - Crippling Grasp, Degeneration / Inner Light, Impale, Merciless Resolve, Elemental Weapon, Ult - Soul Harvest/Incapacitating Strike
- Back bar - Twisting Path, Barbed Trap, Dark Shades, Unstable Wall of Elements, Siphoning Attacks, Ult - Soul Harvest/Incapacitating Strike
In most trial fights, you'll likely want to replace a skill above (such as Inner Light, or Siphoning Attacks if you're ok with sustain, or a Minor Force skill when using Medusa) with Mystic Orb (which is difficult to sustain solo on the raid dummy).
--
Rotation
This is a fully dynamic rotation. The general focus is to keep up your DOTs to a reasonable level without reapplying too early and try to make the most out of the burst phases.
The general priority is to fire a bow proc as soon as possible (or every 6th skill for those with worse ping, not a massive difference), as well as refreshing Merciless Resolve whenever required. Twisting Path, Barbed Trap, Crippling Grasp and Shades can be then reapplied when possible, before reverting to Elemental Weapon, which is our spammable of choice.
The priority shifts, however, when Soul Harvest/Incapacitating Strike is used. If there are DOTs with 1 or maybe 2 seconds left, it can be better to refresh these DOTs first. Once you use Soul Harvest/Incapacitating Strike, you'll get the most out of it if you use only your Direct Damage attacks for the upcoming 6 seconds (Elemental Weapon, Bow Procs)
When you use Medusa set, you should replace Barbed Trap/Channeled Acceleration with some other passive/active skill (e.g.Inner Light), because Medusa gives you Minor Force passive.
To reiterate, Mystic Orb should be used in most trial fights, replacing a skill (discussed above)
Static rotation
Start:
- Dark Shades - Siphoning Attacks
- Merciless Resolve
- Barbed Trap
Repeat:
- Unstable Wall of Elements - Twisting Path - Shade/Trap
- Crippling Grasp - Spam- Bow Proc
- Spam x5 - Bow Proc
Spam = Elemental Weapon (Alternative Spammables include the Vampire Spammable, Swallow Soul, or Concealed Weapon).
Maintain skills at 25% health (or ensure they're up one last time in shorter fights) - Barbed Trap, Twisting Path, Unstable Wall of Elements, Dark Shades. Spam Impale

Rotation
This rotation makes use of the Blackrose Prison Dual Wield Axes on the backbar, and a 2H weapon on the frontbar.
The Blackrose Prison Axes on the backbar to increase the twin blunt and blade bleeding effect. The main priority skills are:
- Deadly Cloak, grants the Spectral Cloak buff for up-to 12 seconds providing the ticks are doing damage.
- Subterranean Assault on cooldown, now activates twice (one after 3 seconds and then after 6). The only real exception during an Off-balance phase with less than 3 seconds remaining, or in a real fight where you won't get any hits at all.
- Cutting Dive spam whenever the enemy is off-balanced.
Deadly Cloak, Rending Slashes, Growing Swarm and Consuming Trap each last 10 seconds so these skills, therefore, form the backbone of the rotation. However, it's not a problem for the DOTs to fall off in favour of casting the above skills (Subterranean Assault, Cutting Dive). Generally, there may be a pattern of reapplying DOTs when not off-balanced, not at all during off-balanced phases.
Use Executioner as an execute, as early as 30% but definitely after 25% and reapply all DOTs, after that only keep your main skills active. In short fights where you won't get a full duration of DOT recasts, ensure DOTs are running one last time before 25%, then use Executioner the rest of the way. During off-balanced phases in short fights, use Executioner too, in the event that you won't get full value out of the Cutting Dive bleeds.
Proposed Static Rotation
This is a 12-second rotation which depends on having a good (not perfect) off-balanced uptime, which is more reflective of reality. Therefore two sets of the rotation are roughly equal to realistic off-balanced phases for many groups. However it won't bring the best results on the dummy since off-balanced occurs in 22-second phases, so do keep this in mind.
Sub Assault - Barbed Trap/Bull Netch (alternate) - Deadly Cloak - Rending Slashes - Growing Swarm - Soul Trap
Sub Assault - Cutting Dive x 5
Replace Cutting Dive with a Bear Ultimate Cast when needed, and/or Executioner Casts at less than 30% HP.
Use Cutting Dive if you don't need the Netch to sustain.

Title: No Longer Was I Dreaming
Listen on YouTube: youtu.be/oQYQ73gktuE
Magicka Dragonknight is still one of the most interesting classes with a great aesthetic. Magicka Dragonknight provides some pretty good burst in shorter fights and possesses an important buff in Engulfing Flames, for Magicka-based groups. It is also a great candidate to provide Z'en's Redress debuff.
Here I've shown two different gear setups and rotations:
- The first is with Siroria and Acuity, where the rotation is a little more defined and takes advantage of Acuity's proc condition.
- The second is with Siroria and Sorrow, where the rotation is a little more free-flowing and dynamic.
I was craving Ramen at the time, but the place down the road was closed so I used it as the thumbnail instead :)

- Back Bar - Unstable Wall of Elements, Flames of Oblivion, Barbed Trap, Scalding Rune - Ult - Standard of Might
Degeneration is a Flex Spot in a raid. Consider Mystic Orb as a possible alternative.
Flame Lash is used to aid sustain here (special proc is half the cost). Molten Whip should provide more DPS, so consider this in raid if sustain is fine.

Rotation
The Magicka Dragonknight has a really fun rotation, and with Acuity, it lines up perfectly and will give great burst in short fights - which isn't really seen on a Target Dummy.
General:
Burning Embers and Engulfing Flames can be cast together since they are both 14 seconds long. Barbed Trap and Eruption are also the same duration, so consider casting these as a pair as well. Otherwise fit around your other DOTs, such as Unstable Wall and Flames of Oblivion whenever required. Try not to recast Flames of Oblivion early though, whereas the other skills you can. Otherwise, cast Flame Lash / Molten Whip when possible. If using Flame Lash, it is possible to cast the proc condition of this skill twice per off-balance phase, so I would recommend keeping half an eye out for off-balance if possible.
Acuity-specific:
The Acuity Cooldown is 18 seconds, which lines up with with the duration of Barbed Trap and Eruption. When Acuity is ready, ensure that you are not on your front bar before freshly casting the two aforementioned skills. Use Scalding Rune as one of your last two skills to cast from the backbar, so that it explodes once you are on your front bar when Acuity procs. If you are also able to time the Wall from exploding during the Acuity proc, that is a nice bonus as well. During the proc, try to use your spammable during the duration, and avoid recasting DOTs without a reasonable direct damage portion, such as Degeneration (or Orb) if you can. It is not always avoidable, yet indeed, a little downtime on DOTs is fine.

Static Rotation (not shown in the video, but as a simplified guideline)
Repeat:
Flames of Oblivion - Barbed Trap - Unstable - Eruption - Scalding Rune
Degeneration - Engulfing Flames - Burning Embers - Whip x2

Rotation
This rotation makes use of the Blackrose Prison Dual Wield Axes on the backbar, and a 2H weapon on the frontbar.
The Blackrose Prison Axes are used on the backbar to increase the twin blunt and blade bleeding effect. The main priority skills are Deadly Cloak and, if slotted, Stone Giant. Stone Griant provides a very useful debuff, which allows all abilities from everyone in your team to do slightly more damage (a baseline of 65 per stack (x3) for a maximum of 5 seconds).
The baseline of this rotation lasts 10 seconds, since Deadly Cloak, Rending Slashes and Consuming Trap each last 10 seconds. These skills, therefore, form the backbone of the rotation.
If you need to reapply skills which are longer than the 10 seconds, such as Barbed Trap, Noxious Breath, Flames of Oblivion or Venomous Claw, you can do so dynamically after they expire, or in many cases where you have clashes, slightly early or slightly late. You won't be able to avoid this. Do try to ensure Stone Giant doesn't drop off though.
Use Executioner as an execute, as early as 30% but definitely after 25% and reapply all DOTs, after that only keep your main skills active: Deadly Cloak, Barbed Trap, Venomous Claw and Stone Giant (if the buff is required). In short fights where you won't get a full duration of DOT recasts, ensure DOTs are running one last time before 25%, then use Executioner the rest of the way.
Proposed Static Rotation
Simple 10-second rotation - favouring overcasting of Flames of Oblivion, Venomous Claw and Noxious Breath over something more complex.
Start
- Barbed Trap
Repeat
- Flames of Oblivion - Deadly Cloak - Rending Slashes - swap
- Stone Giant - Soul Trap - Venomous Claw - swap
- Noxious Breath - swap
- Stone Giant - Stone Giant - Stone Giant / Barbed Trap (every other rotation) - swap
At 30% and below, replace Stone Giant with Executioner (keep up Stone Giant once in a while for the buff, until less than 5 seconds left)

Rotation
This rotation makes use of the Blackrose Prison Dual Wield Axes on the backbar, and a 2H weapon on the frontbar.
The Blackrose Prison Axes on the backbar to increase the twin blunt and blade bleeding effect. The main priority skills are Deadly Cloak and if slotted, Π‘rystal Weapon. Deadly Cloak grants the Spectral Cloak buff for up-to 12 seconds providing the ticks are doing damage.
Π‘rystal Weapon reduces the enemy's armor and gives you and your allies 1000 penetration, so it is beneficial to use this skill at least every 5 seconds.
Note: Crystal Weapon isn't as strong as Wrecking Blow for pure DPS in perfect situations. Wrecking Blow can provide more DPS in situations where frequent blocking isn't required. Barswapping away from Wrecking Blow can be slightly awkward too.
This rotation lasts 10 seconds, since Deadly Cloak, Rending Slashes and Consuming Trap each last 10 seconds. These skills, therefore, form the backbone of the rotation.
If you need to reapply Barbed Trap or Hurricane, you can do so dynamically after they expire, or after every second rotation. The rest of the time you can use spam ability and cast Bound Armaments when you have 4 stacks active.
Use Executioner as an execute, as early as 30% but definitely after 25% and reapply all DOTs, after that only keep your main skills active: Deadly Cloak, Barbed Trap, Hurricane and Π‘rystal Weapon (if the buff is required). In short fights where you won't get a full duration of DOT recasts, ensure DOTs are running one last time before 25%, then use Executioner the rest of the way.
Proposed Static Rotation
This simplifies the use of Bound Armaments and ensures close to max uptime of Crystal Weapon.
To start - Bound Armaments - Crystal Weapon - Hurricane - Barbed Trap
Then repeat:
Cloak - Rending
Soul Trap - Spam - Bound Armaments - Spam x4 - Bound Armaments
Cloak - Rending - Hurricane
Spam - Bound Armaments - Soul Trap - Spam x2 - Barbed Trap - Bound Armaments
Spam = Crystal Weapon (or Wrecking Blow) then Executioner below 30%.

Rotations:
I've listed possible static rotations for each setup below.
In a raid environment, replace Spell Symmetry with an active or passive skill, such as MYSTIC ORB
or change Degeneration / Structured Entropy to another more desired skill, if necessary
Otherwise, for each setup, if you want to play dynamically, you'll want to keep up your DOTs as much as possible. If multiple DOTs are running out at the same time, aim to reapply some early and always let other skills run out (Daedric Prey/Haunting Curse will not do damage otherwise). Also, a quick reminder that the Sorcerer's execute ability starts at 20%, rather than the standard 25%.
For 1 pet I used Mages Wrath.
You can also replace Mages Wrath with Bound Aegis and put Ult on the faceplate - Power Overload
For 0 pet, you can also remove Mages Wrath and put Bound Aegis and Inner Light for the passives, and you may not need Spell Symmetry, see what you can do! You can replace it with another passive or active skill. Replace Meteor Front Bar with Greater Storm Atronach (2 bars)
Static Rotations
0-Pet:
- Barbed Trap/Boundless Storm (alternate) Unstable Wall of Elements - Degeneration

Blue CPs for Practicing on the Dummy
- Master-at-Arms 66
Thaumaturge 37, Piercing 55, Precise Strikes 56, Mighty 56
Blue CPs in Raid:
The number of points into piercing depends on several factors that may or may not be present in your group, therefore you could try and calculate this yourself since it's hard to give a universal recommendation. Any Blue CP left over as a result of taking out from Piercing, can feasibly go anywhere - just try to hit those breakpoints.
Main considerations:
Tremorscale: -2395 Physical Penetration
Sorcerer Spammable: -1000 Physical Penetration
Precise Weapon instead of Sharpered +1638 Physical Penetration
Alkosh bonus: VARIABLE Physical Penetration
Example CPs:
Weapon Master 72, Physical Weapon Expert 14,
Thaumaturge 48, Piercing 6, Precise Strikes 66, Mighty 64

Rotation
This is a 10-second rotation - Arrow Barrage, Poison Injection, Rending Slashes and Consuming Trap are each 10 seconds long
The minimum backbar rotation is: Arrow Barrage - Poison Injection. Usually, you will have to apply the Shades and Barbed Trap every other rotation on average.
The minimum front bar rotation is Rending Slashes - Consuming Trap. If you have Bow Procs ready, go for it. The rest of your front bar time should be spent spamming Surprise Attack.
Incap Strike should be used in a timely fashion, to provide you with the maximum burst. To make the most of it, usually, it will be one of the first skill to be used on your front bar. Then follow it up with re-application of your Rending and Soul Trap as soon as possible, if you haven't already, and also fit in as much Surprise Attack and Bow Procs as you can.
For Maarselok, you will need to Bash once every 7 or more seconds to proc its effect.
Static Rotation:
Start (setup and the starting burst):
Dark Shades - Leeching Strikes - Relentless Focus - Barbed Trap
Part 1 (with incap)
Arrow Barrage - Injection
Incap - Rending - Soul Trap - Spam - Spam - Spam - Spam - Spam
Part 2 (without incap)
Arrow Barrage - Injection - Barbed Trap - Dark Shades - Leeching Strikes (if needed)
Rending - Soul Trap - Spam - Spam - Spam - Spam (this last one if you didn't cast leeching)
Spam = Bow Proc or Surprise Attack or refreshing Relentless Focus (every three parts)
At 25%, keep up Arrow Barrage, Poison Injection, Barbed Trap, Dark Shades and spam Killer's Blade. In short fights, aim to have DOTs (and relentless focus with 5x stacks, for the new crit damage buff) running one last time, before spamming Killer's Blade until the end.

Rotation
The rotation here is a pretty simple one, for how effective it is.
Endless Hail and Ritual of Retribution are both cast once on the backbar per rotation.
Otherwise, it is a case of casting Power of the Light, twice on this front bar rotation. Once near the beginning, and once more 6+ seconds later. In between, you may cast Barbed Trap whenever the Minor Force buff runs out, then aside from casting your ultimate (Ballista is great when timed with Major Vuln, Flawless Dawnbreaker is consistent), literally squeeze in as many Jabs as you can in between that. There isn't too much more to say!
Static Rotation (There are many suitable variations)
Endless Hail - Ritual
POTL - Jabs x6 - POTL - Jabs x3
Replace a Jabs cast with a Barbed Trap or Ultimate cast, whenever ready.

Rotation
This video shows a fully dynamic rotation.
I am using the Master's Bow here, so my main priority is reapplying Poison Injection when it runs out, roughly every 10 seconds.
Venomous Claw and Noxious Breath, each 14 seconds long, can be cast as a pair to make things simpler.
If you find yourself suddenly seeing 5 or 6 DOTs running out in quick succession, you can reapply 3 DOTs, then throw Stonefist, then reapply another 3 DOTs
If you want to simplify your rotation, you can replace Rending Slashes with Consuming Trap and put additional Fighters guild skill to your back bar.
During raids you can use Whirling Blades instead of Rending Slashes
Example Rotation:
- Flames of Oblivion
- Barbed Trap
- Endless Hail - Poison Injection - Consuming Trap
- Stone Giant - Rending Slashes - Venomous Claw - Stone Giant x1 - Noxious Breath
- Ult - Standard of Might
- Stone Giant x1
- Poison Injection - Consuming Trap
- Stone Giant x1 - Rending Slashes
- Endless Hail - Flames of Oblivion
- Barbed Trap - Stone Giant x1 - Venomous Claw - Stone Giant x1 - Noxious Breath
Static rotation
Start:
Static Rotation
Start
- Flames of Oblivion - Barbed Trap
Repeat
- Endless Hail - Poison Injection - Consuming Trap
- Stone Giant - Rending Slashes - Venomous Claw - Noxious Breath
- Stone Giant x2 - Flames of Oblivion - Barbed Trap - Stone Giant
Squeeze in a cast of an Ulti whenever it is ready, you should be able to do it anywhere in the above rotation without dropping Stagger.

Rotation
Cutting Dive is influential in the rotation. Whenever the target is off-balanced, it is worth spamming birds over anything else - each cast of Cutting Dive is worth more than a cast of any DOT, as well as Sub Assault.
Outside Off-balance periods, keep up DOTs and do so whilst casting Sub Assault 1-in-4 skills if you can. Poison Injection is the biggest priority to keep up if you are using the Master Bow. Either way, keep this skill up, along with Endless Hail, Consuming Trap, Growing Swarm and Barbed Trap
When you anticipate a period of Off-balance coming, best ensure DOTs are up. Perhaps it's worth refreshing Endless Hail and Poison Injection if they're close to running out. As soon as Off-balance is up, just spam Cutting Dive. Afterwards, go back to the rotation described above.
Start (setup and the starting burst):
- Ult - Wild Guardian - Bull Netch
- Subterranean Assault
- Endless Hail - Poison injection
- Barbed trap - Growing Swarm - Consuming trap - Cutting Dive 3x - Subterranean Assault
- Poison injection
- Beat - Subterranean Assault
- Endless Hail
- Growing Swarm - Consuming trap - Subterranean Assault - Cutting Dive 2x - Barbed trap - Subterranean Assault
- Poison injection
- Cutting Dive 5x-7x
- Endless Hail - Poison injection
Continue doing the rotation considering all recommendations given above.
Static rotation
For a SIMPLER rotation for Warden, I recommend replacing Endless Hail with Arrow Barrage (DPS remains the same).
Start:
Arrow Barrage - Poison Injection
Sub - Swarm - Consuming Trap - Sub - Spam - Spam - Sub - Netch/Barbed Trap/Spam
Cast Barbed Trap and Netch in alternative repeats of the rotation, or if your sustain is fine, use a spam (Bird) instead

Rotation
I have slotted all of the relevant Ardent Flame abilities on my front bar rather than backbar to make some use of the Seething Fury passive.
I cast Burning Embers and Engulfing Flames together because they are both 14-seconds long (order of these doesn't really matter). Eruption, Flames of Oblivion Degeneration and Rearming Trap should simply be cast on cooldown whenever the three dots above have been handled. Flames of Oblivion is interesting in some ways because since it only ticks every 5s if you reapply it as soon as it runs out, you can get 2 consecutive ticks.
Since the MagDK has many longer duration DOTs (class DOTs of duration 18, 15, 14 and 14 seconds), we have lots of time to use Molten Whip. Overwriting DOTs early to keep better uptimes is encouraged if there are some obvious clashes, but you'll have to be wary that if you overdo this, it means fewer casts of the whip.
Static Rotation
Start:
Flames of Oblivion x 3 (for Seething Fury)
Repeat:
Barbed Trap - Blockade - Eruption - Embers - Engulfing
Degeneration - Whip - Whip - Whip - Whip
Whip - Whip - Whip - Whip - Flames of Oblivion
During execute phase rotation remains unchanged

Here we have two setups. The first to be shown is a support setup, using the new Elemental Catalyst set (eso-sets.com/set/elemental-catalyst), paired with the updated Master Architect set (eso-sets.com/set/master-architect).
Elemental Catalyst relies on a source of Flame, Shock and Frost damage to keep up the buff. Flame and Frost should be covered by Boneyard, but Shock may be problematic if Siphon is playing up. In this case, you could try using a shock glyph, and/or Force Pulse as a spammable to ensure better uptimes. Do check, because you might not need them.
The new Master Architect seems to be a great set to pair with the usage of the Colossus. This relies on positional awareness, and will most likely be used IF there is not already a player using the Roaring Opportunist set in your group.

Rotation
Key to the rotation is casting Blastbones (BB) as often as possible. Ideally, this will be 1-in-3 skills, but sometimes it can be 1-in-4 or more, so you'll have to prepare for that.
In between, keep your DOTs refreshed. Unstable Wall as the most important followed by Orb, Boneyard, Skeletal Mage, Siphon, Barbed Trap would be a rough order of priority. When nothing else needs casting, use the spammable.
When you use Medusa set, you should replace Barbed Trap/Channeled Acceleration with some other passive/active skill (e.g. Expunge), because Medusa gives you Minor Force passive
Start:
- BlastBones (BB) - Skeletal Mage - Barbed Trap
Repeat:
- BB - Boneyard - Unstable Wall - Siphon
- BB - Orb - Spammable
- BB - Spammable - Skeletal Mage/Barbed Trap (alternate)
During execute phase rotation remains unchanged
Spammable = Skull / Force Pulse etc

In most trial fights, you'll likely want to replace a skill above (such as Degeneration, or a Minor Force skill when using Medusa) with Mystic Orb (which is difficult to sustain solo on the raid dummy).

Rotation
I used Deep Fissure 1-in-4 skills in this rotation, it provides improved uptime of DOTs (that are generally still worth more damage-per-cast than Deep Fissure), both in the way of leaving them to fall off a bit less and not recasting too early. Anyway, you can choose whether to use Deep Fissure 1-in-3 or 1-in-4, both options are good, so choose the one that is most convenient for you.
Between Deep Fissure casts, keeping up DOTs and casting the Bear Ultimate as frequently as possible should be the goal. Unstable is the priority, followed by Fetcher Infection (try not to recast this skill early), and then Winter's Revenge (although this skill's priority is above Fetcher if cleave damage is in mind). Recast Trap/Channelled Acceleration to keep up Minor Force. Cast Screaming Cliff Racer whenever there is nothing else to do.
When you use Medusa set, you should replace Barbed Trap/Channeled Acceleration with some other passive/active skill (e.g.Inner Light), because Medusa gives you Minor Force passive.
To reiterate, Mystic Orb should be used in most trial fights, replacing a skill (discussed above)
Static rotation
Start:
- Blue Betty - Ult - Eternal Guardian
- Deep Fissure
Repeat:
- Barbed Trap - Unstable Wall of Elements - Winter's Revenge
- Deep Fissure - Fetcher Infection - Degeneration - Deep Fissure - Screaming Cliff Racer x3 - Deep Fissure
During execute phase, the rotation remains unchanged

Here we have two parses - one with the new Sorcerer Spammable, Crystal Weapon. And one with Rapid Strikes.
Crystal Weapon is an interesting one, it provides a group debuff that reduces enemy armour by 1,000. On the dummy, Rapid Strikes proves to be slightly stronger, but with Crystal Weapon looks to be a winner if the debuff ends up impacting Blue CP allocation, and also due to the fact that instant cast abilities are generally more favourable than channelled skills, such as Rapid Strikes, in a multitude of encounters.

Blue CPs for Practicing on the Dummy
- Master-at-Arms 56, Physical Weapon Expert - 3,
Thaumaturge 48, Piercing 55, Precise Strikes 52, Mighty 56
Blue CPs in Raid:
The number of points into piercing depends on several factors that may or may not be present in your group, therefore you could try and calculate this yourself since it's hard to give a universal recommendation. Any Blue CP left over as a result of taking out from Piercing, can feasibly go anywhere - just try to hit those breakpoints.
Main considerations:
Tremorscale: -2395 Physical Penetration
Sorcerer Spammable: -1000 Physical Penetration
Precise Weapon instead of Sharpered +1638 Physical Penetration
Alkosh bonus: VARIABLE Physical Penetration
Example CPs:
Weapon Master 81, Physical Weapon Expert 6,
Thaumaturge 48, Piercing 5, Precise Strikes 66, Mighty 64

Rotation
This rotation is a 10-second rotation because Arrow Barrage, Poison Injection, Rending Slashes and Consuming Trap are each 10 seconds long.
The minimum back bar rotation is: Arrow Barrage - Poison Injection. You should also cast Hurricane roughly on cooldown if possible, otherwise, every other rotation is fine.
The minimum front bar rotation is Rending Slashes - Consuming Trap and with 4 stacks use Bound Armaments.
If Barbed Trap needs to be reapplied, then you can do so on cooldown or roughly every other rotation. Rest of time you can cast your spammable and use Bound Armaments when there are 4 stacks.
During execute, the rotation remains unchanged, although if you find a way to slot Whirling Blades, you can use this as the main spammable.
Spam = Rapid Strikes or Crystal Weapon
Simple Static Rotation:
Start:
- Summon Unstable Clannfear - Bound Armaments - Ulti
Repeat:
- Endless Hail - Poison Injection - Hurricane - Barbed Trap
- Bound Armaments - Rending Slashes - Consuming Trap - Spam - Bound Armaments - Spam x 4 - Bound Armaments

Rotation
This is a fully dynamic rotation. The general focus is to keep up your DOTs to a reasonable level without reapplying too early and try to make the most out of the burst phases.
The general priority is to fire a bow proc as soon as possible (or every 6th skill for those with worse ping, not a massive difference), as well as refreshing Merciless Resolve whenever required. Twisting Path, Barbed Trap, Crippling Grasp, Degeneration and Shades can be then reapplied when possible, before reverting to Elemental Weapon, which is our spammable.
The priority shifts, however, when Soul Harvest/Incapacitating Strike is used. If there are DOTs with 1 or maybe 2 seconds left, it can be better to refresh these DOTs first. Once you use Soul Harvest/Incapacitating Strike, you'll get the most out of it if you use only your Direct Damage attacks for the upcoming 6 seconds (Elemental Weapon, Bow Procs)
When you use Medusa set, you should replace Barbed Trap/Channeled Acceleration with some other passive/active skill (e.g.Inner Light), because Medusa gives you Minor Force passive.
To reiterate, Mystic Orb should be used in most trial fights, replacing a skill (discussed above)
Static rotation
Start:
- Dark Shades - Siphoning Attacks
- Merciless Resolve
- Barbed Trap
Repeat:
- Unstable Wall of Elements - Twisting Path - Shade/Trap
- Degeneration - Crippling Grasp - Bow Proc
- Spam x5 - Bow Proc
Maintain skills at 25% health (or ensure they're up one last time in shorter fights) - Barbed Trap, Twisting Path, Unstable Wall of Elements, Dark Shades. Spam Impale

Rotation
This video shows a fully dynamic rotation
I am using the Master's Bow here, so my main priority is reapplying Poison Injection when it runs out, roughly every 10 seconds
Also other priority skills - Endless Hail, Skeletal Archer, Detonating Siphon, Barbed trap
Your best bet is to cast your Blastbones as frequently as possible. This usually means 1 cast per every 3 skills. Then cast all your other skills in between.
Try to keep Detonating Siphon active all the time. Do make sure to let the duration expire to get the burst at the end. In order to keep it simple, try to do it at the same moment as your rotation every time. When you have all dots active, use Venom Skull as a spammable.
If you use Whirling Blades, replace Venom Skull to Whirling Blades at 25%
Bash for Maarselok procs on cooldown
During the execute phase rotation remains unchanged.
Start
- Skeletal Archer
- BB - Barbed trap
- Endless Hail - Poison injection
- BB - Detonating Siphon - Rending Slashes - BB
- Consuming Trap - Ult - Pestilent Colossus
- BB - Venom Skull - x1
- Poison injection
- BB
Continue doing the rotation considering all recommendations given above.

Static rotation
Set Whirling Blades instead of Rending Slashes for the static rotation
After the start, Endless Hail-Skeletal Archer and Poison Injection-Consuming Trap will always be used in pairs, so make sure to renew both skills of the pair at the same time for consistency.
Proposed Static Rotation:
Start:
Archer - Blastbones - Trap - Hail - Poison Injection - Soul Trap
Blastbones - Skull - Siphon - Blastbones - Skull - Skull - Blastbones - Skull - Skull
Then Repeat
Blastbones - Hail - Archer
Blastbones - Poison Injection - Soul Trap
Blastbones - Skull - Siphon
Blastbones - Skull - Skull
Blastbones - Skull - Skull
Replace Skull with Whirling in execute!

This was a World Record score run, that is from 3 weeks ago, achieved within 2hrs of our only raid here.
However, I don't fully consider it as such, since the previous record score at the time by 4D was faster than this one, but just not with 24/24 vitality.
I wasn't planning to upload this - I was in the process of clearing out my Hard Drive. Considering the fact that players rarely post full Sanctum Ophidia runs, I thought why not just upload this.
In Stress Tested, we tried to mix it up a bit so different players found opportunities to play different DD roles I have no idea what I'm doing on Magicka Necromancer, unfortunately, but it was fun to Magcro up with my fellow XBOX EU boys.
This is no longer a WR at the time of uploading.

I was brutally forced off my poor Magicka Nightblade by the bosses here at Stress Tested, so I thought it'd be a good opportunity to showcase what Magicka Templar can do here. The cleave from this class is one of the best out of all Magicka DDs, and the Single Target DPS is pretty good too.
Either way, I've taken the blueprints from the Build video for Magplar that I posted (link below), and adjusted it for each situation in this trial. Ritual of Retribution is awesome!
Thanks for watching, happy to hear from you in the comments!

Builds and Parses from the run in the video
I didn't have Camo Hunter levelled up on this character, so I used Slimecraw for 2nd Boss and Trash. Otherwise, the setups are pretty standard fare in this type of group!

This will likely not be possible in future patches for some time (but who knows maybe it will).

I was brutally forced off my poor Magicka Warden by the bosses here at Stress Tested, so I thought it'd be a good opportunity to showcase what Magicka Nightblade can do here. The cleave from this class is one of the worst out of all Magicka DDs, but the Single Target DPS is pretty good.

Builds and Parses from the run in the video
Didn't really think too hard about the gear used here, I hate moving gear between characters so I left as much as I could on my Warden. Therefore all bosses - Maw, 4x Perfected False God (with staff), 5x Sorrow, no experimentation done.

Stress Tested, PC EU, also improved their previous score by 13 seconds, 230,776 in 15:32. However, hopefully, there is more to come since we missed the 1-pylon burn on the 3rd boss.
Parse from fight - https://i.imgur.com/7GoQ1h3.png
I've gone with Acuity here, since with the pre-buff, and with all the important buffs lining at the start, you can get a huge starting burst. Sustain can be pretty bad here since we're using a number of expensive skills and no blood for blood.
My ideal setup here would be a Siroria backbar inferno, instead of the vMA Inferno, with 4 further pieces on the body. This would give 6 pieces on the backbar, but 4 on the front. 5x Acuity and 1x Thrassian Stranglers, and the Masters Lightning Staff would make up the rest. Unfortunately, I don't have that second Siroria Inferno staff.

Veteran Halls of Fabrication
230,521 Score
15:45 Time
36/36 Vitality
This is a run by Stress Tested, PC EU, shaving 1-2 seconds off the World Record score set by 4D a couple days ago.
To be honest, chances are that by the time you've seen this, they will have surpassed this run, but in the end, I like to upload runs in the event that it might help give an insight into how you might adapt a 'Build' like those from my videos showcasing rotations on a dummy, into REAL raid scenarios.
I don't really talk about pre-buffing a lot, but its something that players can do to squeeze that extra couple of % in DPS.
Unfortunately, I mistimed my pre-buff setup on the 4th boss, which can happen, it is a little risky. So do your best to ignore my completely random improvized rotation there at 9:00. See the 2nd boss at 3:21 for how to do a clean pre-buff rotation on a Magicka Warden - all setups are listed below.
As usual, for recent times, I don't want to say too much about the PTS changes YET, because they can be unpredictable and they bit me a little last time round. I'm not sure if I will see much Magicka Warden next patch, so I'm trying to showcase this class as much as I can whilst we're here.
I hope you enjoy, happy to answer Qs in the comments.
Thanks!

Congrats to everyone in the team for achieving this run.
Our first raid as a group in Kyne's Aegis was 4th June, so happy to wrap up and move elsewhere in this ~month-long timeframe.
Well done to @stileanima and the rest of 4D, PC NA for managing earlier this week to hold all Trial Record Scores at once, I'm sure you'll get this one back in a day or two :)
