Gear and Item Set Info
5 x Julianos, 5 x Elegant (dual wield and jewelry) 2x Molag Kena and Maelstrom Inferno Staff
General Info
The idea of this build is to get maximum damage from your Overload light attacks which works great with trial bosses. Elegant increases light and heavy attack so by 20% and this proc'D with Kena, entropy, dual wield passives and war horn can get each light attack critting for 72k. On trash mobs, be sure to use shooting star to get ultimate back.
Champion Point Tips
Blue: max out elemental expert, the rest in spell penetration and critGreen: reduce spell and magic regenRed: put most in bastion and share the rest in hardy and elemental defender. Try to put 10 in quick recovery
Pretty good build. But I highly suggest u using dark conversion on your overload bar
Because I use Energy Overload over Power Overload, Magicka is returned
Thank you for showing us this build. My High Elf is cp 150. Have been wearing light armor. Guild is suggesting since I seem to die a lot, that I get heavy. Thoughts? Also, I get your first bar skills with Destruction staff. That’s what I use. However, I have Liquid Lightning on bar #1. In dungeons, being rushed by a hoard of little guys, works great. Your bar #2 puzzles me. Do you change armor when you use those skills? And honestly, why Dual Wield?
One other thing. your choice of armor. It’s not like you can go to the grocery store and pull some off the shelf. Where is it? And that Maelstrom staff too. If you’ve read this far did I detail enough so you can respond? Looking forward to it.

If you are using a mag build then use damage shields to your advantage, get the light armor ability and morph to where it restores magicka, then get the sorc damage shield as well, spam these when you are under heavy fire.
Is breton ok for this?
Nice build. I’d like to try it out but what skills do you out in your overload bar? Thanks.
A good suggestion would be to take dark conversion onto your overload bar and replace it with power surge for the extra hard hitting and health regen
What’s the rotation for this? Is it still relevant today?
