Introduction

Welcome to the Magicka Sorcerer Build PvE “Mystic” for Elder Scrolls Online. Make sure to bookmark the link as I will keep updating the build for each new Update of ESO. You can also find a traditional Magicka Sorcerer 2 Pet Build with a heavy attack rotation on my website! If you are new to Magicka Sorcerers, then I recommend reading my in depth Magicka Sorcerer Beginner Guide and also check out the CP 160 Magicka Sorcerer Beginner Guide first.

The Magicka Sorcerer Build PvE “Mystic” is made for Trials, Dungeons & Arenas. You can also play this for all the Solo content with some minor adjustments. In this guide I will show you a full setup with three different gear options, a trial setup where we combine the best possible gear, an gear setup 2 where we combine sets that are obtained outside of trials and a beginner setup, so you can build your wait up.

• Good single target (ST) damage
• Insane ranged & melee damage
• High area of effect (AoE) Damage
• Good sustain
• Easy survivability due to magicka shield
• Trials, Dungeons & Arenas

Changes from the previous version

Resource Management

Sorcerers have a tough life with sustain. Make sure to use Clockwork Citrus Filet to gain a lot of overall resources and recovery, this Food is used by most endgame PvE setups to help with sustain. You can also use an Absorb Magic Enchantment on the back bar weapon, to help with sustain. Also always make sure to use potions on cooldown, this will give you back magicka and also apply the Major Sorcerery and Prophecy buff to increase overall damage. If you still fall low on magicka, you can always use one two heavy attacks to regain resources. Healers also have to constantly use Energy Orb so you can activate the synergy and regain resources, this has a cooldown of 20 seconds.

• Clockwork Citrus Filet
