Here we have a Stamina Sorcerer Dual Wield/Bow PVE build and Iron Atronach Parse for Scalebreaker.

If you're looking for:
vMA Dagger Rotation: youtu.be/2PC_jM5S0iE
2H/Bow Rotation: youtu.be/SyHgPxyfV5w

There have been loads of changes across the board for combat in ESO. I would recommend you to read the relevant patch notes.

I am using the Max Stam/Stam Regen food, with 64 points into Stamina for all Stamina Setups in these rotations. This is simply for comparison purposes in this test environment.

The Stamina Sorcerer, in my opinion, has the best difficulty: damage ratio. Even more so with this rotation, as it is easier than the vMA Dagger rotation, just by virtue of not having to stick to any strict sequences. It provides some great survivability and more than average AOE as part of its toolkit. In terms of class identity, Stamina Sorcerer has been a little thin for a while now, but it can still bring some favourable buffs to the group, such as Major Berserk from the Atronach, and with some skill bar tweaking: group healing via the new Power Surge and Minor Prophecy via Dark Deal. After all, Stamina Sorcerer has a few flex bar slots with this rotation, so this utility can come in handy.

Gear:
5x Relequen Body, 5x Lokkestiiz (1x Axe 1x Dagger), 1x Master's Bow. (See build screenshot for full details).

Rotation

This rotation is a pretty simple one. It is a 10-second rotation because Arrow Barrage, Poison Injection, Rending Slashes and Consuming Trap are each 10 seconds long.

The minimum backbar rotation is: Arrow Barrage - Poison Injection. You should also cast Hurricane roughly on cooldown if possible, otherwise every other rotation is fine.

The minimum frontbar rotation is Rending Slashes - Consuming Trap. If Barbed Trap needs to be reapplied, then you can do so on cooldown or roughly every other rotation. Other than that, literally cast Rapid Strikes until it's time to recast your backbar.

Nothing much changes in execute, just keep going. On your last rotation, if you know you won't get great value out of recasting DOTs, then keep spamming Rapid Strikes until the end!

For Maarselok, you will need to Bash once every 7 or more seconds to proc its effect.

If you wanted extra cleave, you could resort to applying Trap via your backbar roughly every other rotation. Then you can have Whirling Blades ready to be used whenever you need the AOE damage or in execute instead of Rapid Strikes.


Proposed Static Rotation:

Start:

Hurricane

Arrow Barrage - Injection - Hurricane (every other rotation)
Barbed Trap (every other rotation) - Rending - Consuming Trap - Rapids x4 (+1 if you didn't use Trap this rotation, -1 if you used Hurricane or Ultimate in the previous rotation)
