When the game first came out, I was a big fan of it. It had everything that made me love playing video games for hours on end. However, after ESO’s latest update which introduced the new Werewolf content patch and overhauled PvP to make it more fair, my magic-based build became utterly outdated! If you’ve been following me and have an idea about what type of Sorcerer build to use in PvE (Deadlands) then feel free to give your input.
The “sorcerer werewolf eso” is a build for the Elder Scrolls Online: Deadlands. This build focuses on stamina and magicka, with some minor health and armor. The build uses mostly light armor and weapons, with a few pieces of medium armor and weapons.
This tutorial will show you how to make my favorite ESO Deadlands build. This is a PvE build for a Werewolf Stamina Sorcerer, geared at solo and veteran dungeons. Let’s get down to business.

The Lightning Light Attack Build ft. Belharza’s Band for Werewolf Stamsorc PvE
Angus Green / ZeniMax Online Studios through HGG
Race: Dark Elf (Orc or Khajiit) | Mundus: Warrior or Thief | Food: Garlic Cod with Potato Crust or comparable (5395 health, 4936 stamina) and Bewitched Sugar Skulls (4620 health, 4250 magicka/stamina, and 462 health recovery) | Potion: Tri-pots or Essence of Weapon Power | Attributes: 64 Stamina
I’ve been motivated to attempt some fresh builds after receiving new goodies from the Deadlands DLC. I went out to construct a light attack build that was genuinely successful with the new legendary gear Belharza’s Band.
This build isn’t pushing the greatest numbers in the meta, but it was a lot of fun to experiment with altering the general feel of continually having to weave in and out of abilities to generate excellent DPS. I use this setup for solo and vet dungeons, but I wouldn’t use it for PVP or vet trials.
This construct is designed for a Stamsorc Werewolf, but it would also work well with a Stamplar. If you don’t want to run a werewolf, Stamplar is a better alternative because of their Solar Barrage talent, which grants them 8 seconds of Empower and increases light attack damage by 40%.
Both Dark Elves and Orcs increase weapon damage, making them ideal candidates for this build. With their increased critical damage, Khajiit are also good alternatives.

Stamina In werewolf form, sorcerers receive a multitude of advantages that other classes don’t have. Many class passives need the usage of certain class skills, making benefits difficult to transfer. Sorcerers, in particular, keep their 5% enhanced weapon/shock damage (Energized) and their 1% increase in damage to foes for every 10% of their health they have (Amplitude).
Caltrops with Razors and Elemental Blockade will help to set an area up to do some great damage in. Elemental Blockade should only be used if you have access to the maelstrom weapon Wall of Destruction that increases light attack damage. Otherwise a bow will do you much better.

Belharza’s Band (from scrying) is the new mythic that enhances light attack damage and offers substantial AOE damage once triggered. With this worn, light attacks inflict 900 more damage, and light attacks stack up to 5 times before launching a rampaging minotaur upon opponents. The minotaur delivers damage in a line based on the higher of your weapon/spell damage, stuns those struck for three seconds, and deals damage in a line depending on the higher of your weapon/spell damage. This function may only be used once every 10 seconds. This item properly sets up our following set since it requires 5 consecutive hits to activate.
Blood Moon is a supermoon that occurs is a supermoon that occurs is a supermoon that occurs is a supermoon that occurs is a supermoon that occurs (from March of Sacrifices) is also focused on increasing light attack damage, requiring dealing damage with 5 light attacks within 8 seconds. With 5 stacks you get the frenzied buff for 5 seconds which increases light attack damage by 55% and attack speed by 50%. This effect can only occur every 15 seconds, so you’ll want to get the most out of it by buffing up prior and preventing any stuns prior to starting the frenzy.
Next up is Duelist of Nobles (from Blessed Crucible) which boosts melee range light attacks. Dealing damage with a light or heavy attack will cause your next LA and HA to deal 1811 more damage per hit for 5 seconds. This skill can be activated every 5 seconds so it’s easy to get consistent uptimes with it.
Last but not least, Wall of Destruction (from Maelstrom Arena) is a solid arena weapon to use for this build. Generally you’d want to go for a bow, but to increase our light attacks further we’ll use this instead. You’ll deal an additional 1353 damage per light attack to any enemy standing in the wall of elements you cast.
Points for the Champion

Be a part of the High Ground
Throughout the Deadlands, I had a lot of fun with my Stamsorc Werewolf build, and I hope you will as well. With ESO continuing to release more unique mythological artifacts that provide variety to our character customization options, I believe we’ll see a lot more viable off-meta ways to play the game in the future updates.
