Introduction
Welcome to the Stamina Warden Bow Build PvE “Racer” for Elder Scrolls Online. Make sure to bookmark the link as I will keep updating the build for each new Update of ESO. The Stamina Warden Bow Build is optimized for Dungeons but can also be run in trials.
Stamina Wardens have pretty good ranged abilities like the Cliffracer and the Subt. Assault, combined with the bow skill-line you can set off some really good ranged damage. Bow builds are still quite the under dog as they are not widely accepted due to the smaller damage output and they are harder to play. However, with this setup you can pull off good numbers and survivability should also not be a problem.
- Warden Class
- Medium Armor build
- Double Bow setup
- Good sustain
- Good AoE damage
- Good Single Target damage
Changes from the previous version
Updated the builds rotation, sets, skills, traits and enchantments.
Resource Management
Bull Netch is the Wardens best friend, it restores a lot of Stamina, make sure to keep it up all the time. Artaeum Takeaway Brooth Food (Or Dubious Camoran Throne Drink) is the new buff food that we use, to gain a lot of recovery to be able to do a light attack rotation. You also want to make sure that Spears or Orbs are used by your healers to activate the synergy for resources. I recommend being a Redguard because you will get the best sustain. And you can be a Vampire stage 2 for the 10% extra Stamina Recovery.
- Natures Gift passive
- Bull Netch
- Water-Stained Psijic Food (or Dubious Camoran Throne Drink)
- Vicious Serpent Set (optional)
- Redguard Passive (If available)
Trials & Dungeon Setup
5x Tzogvin, 5x Relequen, 2x Velidreth, orc with Artaeum Food.
- Unbuffed: Out of combat
- Buffed: Raid dummy buffs, Potion, Tzogvin procs and Weapon Damage Enchantment were active
Gear
You will find 3 different setups here. Setup 1 is the preferred setup. For people that do not have all the gear yet can use the Setup 2 which is easier to obtain and beginners can use Setup 3.
- Setup 1 is with Trial Gear
- Setup 2 is without Trial Gear
- Setup 3 is for Beginners
There are a lot of good Stamina Sets available, you can find more viable stamina dps sets in this Stamina DPS Sets Article. I also elaborate on specific sets that are often used in this article to give you a bit more insight as to why they are used.

Gear beginner
This gearsetup is pretty easy to get, you need to ask a guildmate to craft you Hundings Rage and Night Mothers Gaze. You can buy Agility in Guildstores, if you want really cheap pieces just buy the Healthy Trait ones, then you can actually invest all points into Stamina and you should get to a decent Health level. I also do recommend using Dubious Camoran Throne Drink with this setup to get good sustain.

| Ring | Agility | Jewelry | Robust | Weapon Damage |
| Weapon 1 | Hunding's Rage | Bow | Precise | Absorb Stamina Enchant |
