Class Mastery Signature Script ESO
ESO Class Mastery Signature is one Script which effect is based on the characters class you use it on. You can acquire the ESO Class Mastery Signature Script after completing Wing of the Dragon by combining 50 Class Script Scraps. You can keep track of how many class script scraps you have by checking the achievement “Collect 50 Class Mastery Scraps” under Gold Road, Scribing. When you consume your final Class Script Scrap, you will receive the achievement and the Class Mastery Script for the character you are currently on and the Class Script Scraps will no longer drop.
You only need to collect the Class Script Scraps once on one character. You will be able to purchase the Class Mastery Script from Chronicler Firandil for all your alts.

All Scribing Class Masteries for ESO
The ESO Class Mastery Scripts have unique effects for each class therefore adding class identity to your scribed skill. You can use the Class Mastery Signature Script with all the available Grimoires, giving you freedom to choose all other Focus and Affix Script effects.
Currently the Class Masteries are better suited for your PvP oriented builds rather than PvE as many of the other Signature Script effects outperform the Class Mastery effects. This does not mean you can not use Class Masteries for PvE, it just means they are not bis (best in slot). As more use cases are found, they will be added to this guide.
Arcanist Scribing Class Mastery ESO
Create a Crux.
Arcanists can use any of the Grimoires and have that skill create crux which can be consumed by any of the skills that normally consume crux. For instance, you can create a skill for your PvE healer with the Arcanist Class Mastery Script and then use the Tidal Chakram skill to consume the generated crux, strengthening the heal.
Arcanist Class Mastery Script can have many uses in PvP depending on how much your build depends on you creating and consuming Crux.
The Arcanist class mastery script follows the regular Crux generation rules which means you won’t be able to generate Crux out of combat.
Dragonknight Scribing Class Mastery
For each enemy within 8 meters, up to 6, gain 50 Weapon and Spell Damage and reduce your damage taken by 2% plus 1% per enemy for 5 seconds.
The Dragonknight Class Mastery Script has been considered to be very powerful in PvP and make Dragonknights tank even more damage than they already are capable. The Dragonknight Class Mastery will shine in situation where you are surrounded by vast amount enemies, however keep in mind that the range is only 8 meters (1 meter more than Lava Whip) so you really have to be in the middle of the action to get the most out of it.
For PvE the Dragonknight Class Mastery Script isn’t considered as useful as there are more options for short duration mitigation in addition to rarely being surrounded by so many enemies that the Class Mastery would out preform for example the Gladiator’s Tenacity Script.
Necromancer Scribing Class Mastery ESO
Once every 3 seconds, increase your Health, Magicka, and Stamina by 2% for 10 seconds for each corpse within 12 meters, up to 10 times. If no corpses are nearby, create a corpse.
The Necromancer Class Mastery Script can increase your max resource pools by up to 20% if there is 10 corpses around when the skill is used. You can use the Necromancer Class Mastery Script in PvP to make your high health builds have an even higher health temporarily! To get an idea of how big the 12 meter area is, you can use your Bone Totem skill as it is exactly 12 meters in diameter.
As with the other Class Mastery Scripts, the Necromancer one isn’t considered best in slot for PvE either, however it can be used on a tank to increase the resource pools when necessary.
Nightblade Scribing Class Mastery ESO
Restore 333 Magicka and Stamina if your target was above 50% Health. Increase your Critical Chance by 10% for 5 seconds if your target was at or below 50% Health.
The Nightblade Class Mastery Script is seen as a good skill to use in PvP for example when you combine it with other hard hitting abilities. For example you can combine your Scribed skill with your execute skills like Killer’s Blade to get that extra 10% Critical Chance which might just be enough to kill your opponent. You could even use it on your stealth archer to add the 10% Critical Chance to your Lethal Arrow with the (That doesn’t break stealth
Sorcerer Scribing Class Mastery ESO
Enchant your closest pet for 5 seconds to heal a nearby ally for 475 Health each time it deals damage, up to once a second. If you do not have a pet, you deal 1122 Shock Damage to enemies within 8 meters of your first target.
The Sorcerer Class Mastery Script is quite underwhelming as the heal is single target (Compared to for example Radiating Regeneration) therefore the Shock Damage would have to be used on a Grimoire that would place your spammable AOE skill. Currently none of the Grimoires offer higher damage than the existing class/weapon skills which means you would possibly lose some damage. You can still use the Sorcerer Class Mastery Script with your chosen Grimoire, it just isn’t best in slot!
Templar Scribing Class Mastery ESO
For 5 seconds, you gain 1320 Armor and 150 Weapon and Spell Damage. If Sacred Ground is active on you, these values are increased by 50%.
You can use the Templar Class Mastery Script on a Healer or Tank in PvE when you need more resistances and some Weapon/Spell Damage for short durations. You could use this in in PvP when combined with any of the healing Grimoires.
Warden Scribing Class Mastery ESO
Create an 8 meter area for 2 seconds under your target once every 8 seconds that snares enemies by 70%, and charms them for 3 seconds when it expires. If no enemies are charmed, you restore 1000 Magicka and Stamina.
You can use the Warden Class Mastery Script to slow down a large amount of enemies by 70% and if the enemies can be stunned, they can also be charmed. Charming your enemy means the enemies will walk towards your character therefor in PvP this would need to be broken free from, but in PvE the enemies will keep walking towards you for the 3 second duration.
The Warden Class Mastery Script is also considered one of the weaker ones currently as it doesn’t have many use cases even though the 70% snare is extremely strong in PvP.
