Stamina Sorcerer Stage 4 Vampire PvE. THE BLOOD FRENZY
Finally we've broken in to Stamina Vampire. I honestly didn't think it was possible but it very much is thanks to the dual wielding skill line we can make this happen.
Just a heads up my PVE builds always focus around using Simmering Frenzy unless stated. This is because imo it is an extremely strong Vampire skill that allows you to stack weapon or spell damage provided you can replenish the ever increasing health cost. I've reach 14k spell damage on this build but I'm sure more can be obtained. Peak dps is about 150k but I've averaged out about 75k. For me that's decent. My light attack weave is shocking so I'm expecting some big numbers from the pros on this.
To make this build simple I've chosen the Sorcerer as the class passives are very suited for vampire but also the slottable skill passives are also extremely strong. I've also gone with a really simple rotation to reduced the key presses.
You should always have your buffs up, Simmering Frenzy, Critical Surge, Hurricane and your Twilight Tormentor rotate Endless hail on the back bar with Bloodthirst and Barbed Trap on the front bar. Bloodthirst is your main spammable and this is the skill that will keep you alive while you have Simmering Frenzy on. I've made Swarming Scion but ultimate of choice as it helps reach the higher end numbers of Simmering Frenzy but you may get better results with the Greater Storm Atronach.
This build is not optimal but the gear I've chosen is easy to obtain. Finally I want to say a big thanks to Asti for testing this build with me.

Deadly Strike is a great medium set to boost a huge amount of your damage. It only effects the damage over time and channel abilities but that is still a huge amount of your damage. It's an easy set to obtain from Cyrodiil or from Guild vendors.
Full Divines
Tzogvin's Warband
Type: Dungeon
Location: Frostvault
Requires DLC: Wrathstone
We need a crit set to raise the damage through the roof so I've gone for Tzogvin's If you're struggling to get it Leviathans is an easier but lesser set. You get minor force from Spiked Bear Trap so this allows you to be inter changable
Name: Perfected Thunderous Volley
Type: Arena
Location: Maelstrom Arena [vet]
Requires DLC: Orsinium
This adds extra damage to the Volley and it is an easy attack that can be weapon swap cancelled. You should be able to farm the normal version
Name: Slimecraw
Type: Monster Set
Location: Wayrest Sewers I, Maj
There's a bit of duplication on this set with the Minor Berserk and Camouflaged Hunter so it's inter changeable but the crit on the set is optimal.
