Introduction
Welcome to DottzGaming.com’s Stamina Warden Build PvP, Nature’s Wrath, for the Elder Scrolls Online! This build is intended for PvP of all kinds: battlegrounds, Cyrodiil, dueling, and Imperial City. This build can be played in both CP and no-CP pvp without any changes to the build!
This build is a heavy armored build that focuses on the Stamina Warden’s primary strength: burst with its ultimate. This build hits insanely high weapon damage numbers, all while being extremely tanky itself due to being in heavy armor. This is one of the burstiest builds I’ve made and it’s incredibly fun, and I hope you guys enjoy it as much as I do!
Keep in mind that PvP builds are very personal. This is what worked for ME. If you don’t like something about it, change it to fit your playstyle.

Gear Choices
Clever Alchemist: This set is perfect for a back bar set on a burst build. You get an insane amount of weapon damage when you drink your potion on your back bar; combined with Fury you can hit really high weapon damage numbers and absolutely crush your opponents with your ultimate combo!
Warrior’s Fury: This set got a change in the Scalebreaker update that not only made it more consistent, but viable in no-CP. This set gives a solid amount of weapon damage, and we can proc it with relative ease since this is a brawling focused build.
Scourge Harvester: Initially I had Bloodspawn on the build because even after the nerf, I thought we could still gain some value out of it. The issue though that I found after initial Greymoor testing is that healing is a LOT worse than I anticipated. To counteract that, we use Malubeth on the build to gain access to major vitality while in combat, giving us a ton of extra healing while we are brawling it out!
Disciplined Slash: Works as a great front bar set since we have clever alchemist on our back bar. This set allows us to generate ultimate incredibly quickly while executing our opponents, allowing us to get to our burst much faster!

Other Important Info

Mundus
Warrior – Increased Weapon Damage
Race
Nord: Easily my favorite race for this build. The extra resists that Nord has on top of our heavy armor passives/resists makes us incredibly tanky. Past that, the ultimate generation allows us to get to our ults that much faster combined with Bloodspawn and the Asylum 2h, and the Health/Stam is obviously always welcome!
Orc: If you dont feel you need or want the extra tankiness that Nord has, Orc would be my second choice. Being an Orc makes you more mobile and gives you more damage, making this build’s offensive prowess even more devastating.
Potions/Poisons
- For higher damage
- Essence of Weapon Crit– Major Savagery, Health and Stamina
- (Dragonthorn, Water Hyacinth, Columbine)
- For easier magicka sustain
- Essence of Health (Restore Magicka, Health and Stamina)
- (Bugloss, Columbine and Mountain Flower)
Passives
Class (all), Heavy Armor (all), Medium Armor (all except the ones that require you to wear 5 pieces), 1h and Shield (all), Two-Handed (all), Fighter’s Guild (all except Intimidating passive), Undaunted (all), Racial (all), Alchemy (Medicinal Use), Assault (all), Support (all except the first)
Tips & Misc.
- Maintaining your Ice Fortress, Blue Betty and Forward Momentum is going to be key to maximizing your tankiness, damage and sustain.
- When you need to go defensive, swap to your back bar and apply Leeching Vines and Resolving Vigor. If you need a burst heal, you can also use Soothing Spores!
- Use Spell Wall when you feel you’re taking a ton of pressure and your heals wont be enough to sustain you.
- Your primary combo is simple: drink potion back bar, sub assault, Dizzying Swing, Dawnbreaker, Executioner. A lot of opponents will struggle to live through that kind of burst damage, especially with the numbers this build can hit on weapon damage!
