2H Stamina Warden Build for ESO – Damage Dealer DPS

Champion Points – 2H Stamina Warden Build

Important Info – 2H Stamina Warden Build

Buff-food

I do recommend using the Artaeum Takeaway Broth or the Dubious Camoran Throne buff-food. Buff-food is very important because it boosts your overall resources by a lot.

Artaeum Takeaway Brooth
(Max Health, Max Stamina, Stamina Recovery, Health Recovery)

(or Dubious Camoran Throne Drink)
(Max Health, Max Stamina, Stamina Recovery)

Mundus Stone

The Thief (Increased Weapon Critical)

Race

Any race with stamina based perks works for this setup. If you want a complete overview of all races and racial passives, then I recommend checking out the ESO Races Overview page.

Khajiit
Dark Elf
Nord
Redguard

Potions

Potions are an important part of the 2H Stamina Warden build, they apply very powerful buffs and extra resources to your character. Potions benefit from the Alchemy passive Medicinal Use, make sure to always have that passive active.

Weapon Crit Potions 
(Weap dmg, Weap Crit, Stamina)
(Blessed Thistle, Dragonthorn, Wormwood)

Poisons

Poisons increase your overall damage, therefore they are also an important part of the build. However, they are less important than potions.

Resource Management

Using the Artaeum Buff Food already gives us a lot of extra stamina recovery that we need. In addition, you always want to keep up your Bull Netch to constantly give you back stamina throughout the fight. During the fight healers or tanks will throw Energy Orb that you can synergize to get back resources, these are very important!

Other than that you have to use potions on cooldown to give you a huge amount of stramina back and you can always perform some heavy attacks throughout the fight to restore stamina. If you have all these things you should be fine with sustain, just don’t forget to do heavy attacks when you drop low on stamina.

• Artaeum Takeaway Brooth
• Bull Netch
• Orbs or Spears from Healers
• Heavy Attacks resource return (optional)
• Potions

Rotation

In case you don’t know what weaving light attacks is, make sure to check out the “Weaving Beginner Guide” which explains how to weave light attacks between abilities, aka animation canceling.

Endless Hail > Barbed Trap > Weapon Swap

LA > SA > LA > Growing Swarm > LA > 4x Wrecking Blow (with LA) > SA > LA > 5x Wrecking Blow (with LA) > Weapon Swap

Restart

• LA = Light Attack
• SA = Sub Assault
• Reactivate the Bull Netch whenever it runs out

AoE Setup – 2H Stamina Warden Build

The AoE setup of the 2H Stamina Warden Build is more straight forward. Trash packs don’t live for a very long time, anything that provides us with extra burst damage is useful, therefore we use sets like Mechanical Acuity and New Moon Acolyte as well as the very powerful Perfected Titanic Cleave.
