I have to work the next 3 days but I'll get it done when I can.
I'm in the middle of leveling my arcanist after the recent chapter collection sale so thanks; came at the perfect time. Appreciate the effort into the visuals and all the alternative setups as well.
Thanks! Not much of a change tho if you don't want to use the banner. I don't know who came up with the idea of those annoyingly loud noises when someone enters or leaves the banner's radius, but I do suggest they'd be flayed.
Thank you, Skinny. Can you tell, is banner good for dungeons? Like trifectas. I wonder if the 33% debuff breaks the character too much for playing without crutches from a fully assembled group.
So if we don’t want to use heroism pots, then the play is to put minor heroism on banner and swap out barbed trap for camo hunter correct? Am I understanding that correctly?
Hey man, I followed your build fairly accurately other than un-perfected null arca and nirnhoned-infuse weapons and deadly cloak but i just cant seem to break better than 105k. CP 1010 with same champ points and i run 800 less max stam, 1.7 less crit, and 20 less weapon dmg. Any thoughts?
I love that this video wasn't specifically about try harding for max DPS but instead was for a really good, yet chill build. I also love deadly and ansuul's for the ease of use, and use a 1.5 bar build because in reality, it's good enough for vet trials. Love the new video and thank you as always for the great content!
I’m shocked you’ve made another video especially after your recent comments that just made me sad to hear you at a low point with the game. I hope you’re doing okay 💜
Thanks! Fancy action bar + and then azurah to move stuff around is most of what you’re seeing. Exoy has a couple of addons for tracking stuff too, crux tracker and proc set timer.
Hey @skinnycheeks. I have 2 questions becouse I cant understand priority: 1. 13:17 of video 18s of parse you have 2 seconds left of fluminating? Should recasting rune before beam be better and then beam? 2. everytime your dots (backbar) are expired u still use flail first (after beam) then dots. Shouldnt dots be first then flail? thanks in advance!
As I mentioned I made some mistakes. The problem is barswapping to your backbar without casting a skill can feel kinda jank. That’s why I hit the flail 1st sometimes. Ideally you’d do dots then flail, yeah. 2s left of fulminating I’d just beam. It isn’t the strongest dot.
Hey are you absolutely certain magical damage covers all elements? Usually magic means strictly magic type as it's own element (war maiden for example). If it covers all that would be great though!
Magic Damage is one type, MagicAL damage is all the elements + magic damage. I'm using a magical banner and I can see it increase the damage for my flame enchantments while active
@@Ryuu798 very cool. That gives me something to consider for my non "magic" elemental builds. I had kinda written off that banner as being too niche for anything but a nb or a plar.
@@ЯрославСуський if it procs on a random low health ad and not the high prority target it is a loss of dmg or more to the point dmg where dmg isn't needed

Awesome guide as always, you're the best to follow as ESO player 👏 The problem is, how to obtain gear and get better if you cant find people to play trials, even on normal difficulty. The game is empty right now, sadly.
They are pretty close for most setups. Better on arcanist for more beam time. The stronger your main spam, the better case for the longer dot in blockade.
I tested it right when arc came out and it performed pretty decent. I hit in the 90s (I peaked at 112 on that patch). So maybe 95k if I were a bit better? Def viable if you already have it on hand, but not the best
@@skinnycheeks I was about to ask the same. I don't have Ansuul's torment nor Coral yet (not sure i'm good enough to use it anyways). So with Runecarver front bar, what should I pair it with? I have Whorl though.
Why not to go with heroism banner with trap & rune/contingency and get crit chance from pots instead of camo. Especially for parse, because tri stats are much more expensive.
SKINNY CHEEKS! MAKE A NEW FROST WARDEN DAMAGE BUILD, AND MY LIFE IS YOURS!!! No, but really i actually think the ild one still hilds up plenty fine. Ive been using a slighty defensive spin off of that build for years now, and i still love it to this day. Thanks for the vids!

He is back!!! I missed your videos Skinny about ESO
So glad you are back… you were missed.
I know it's been rough recently, but I'm glad you posted this video. It means a lot that people care.
Happy to see you again man, thank you for what you do for the community!!!

Man I haven’t touched this game in years. Glad you’re still making content for people who still play. You still do the “uhhh… bye” 💪🏽
Haha what’s up?!? Been a while since I’ve seen a comment from ya. Hope you’re doing well!
@@skinnycheeks man I’m monster hunter dork nowadays and I’ve been well thank you. I hope life has been good for you as well brother 💪🏽
Thanks as always Skinny, I'm really grateful for your guides
Hopefully we get a necro DPS guide with corpsebuster
Glad to see that your sticking around. Thanks for the updated guide!
Thanks skinny , i always appreciate these videos.
Great setup
Skinny you are a total LEGEND. So glad you are back.
Glad to see you back my man!
i havent really played in two years and im getting the itch
Do you have a suggestion for something other than the banner?
Can you do a video for new players that doesnt use trial or arena gear please?
Do I get all scripts from the same daily quest or do certain scrips take certain quest to get?
How do I get the scripts needed for the banner? I’m confused about it. I have the banner but not the scripts
Love your content mate, cool vid!
Hey thanks for the guide really helpful, but the link in the description for the no trial gear set up is broken.
@@Zestirias try the one in the pinned comment. I’ll update the description when I can

@@TreeClimberson could be a number of things but the top issues I see are doing the rotation too slow and not keeping dots up optimally
Could you add which runes are needed for the fiery banner, please? 🙂🙏
Not sure what you mean
I think you meant the scripts used? If so it's Flame Damage, Class Mastery and Heroism/Buff of your choice
@@silentseashore Yeah, sorry. 😅🙈Thank you 🙂🙏
There is something so special about hearing that song at the end of a video during a parse man
I love that this video wasn't specifically about try harding for max DPS but instead was for a really good, yet chill build. I also love deadly and ansuul's for the ease of use, and use a 1.5 bar build because in reality, it's good enough for vet trials. Love the new video and thank you as always for the great content!
Do you know if there is a cap for recoveries ex. Magicka, Stamina, Health etc
@@VsSecretChannel no caps, no. But as long as you can sustain, you never really want to invest in those stats past that point.
I’m shocked you’ve made another video especially after your recent comments that just made me sad to hear you at a low point with the game. I hope you’re doing okay 💜
@@Void3.0 doin alright! Thanks
Great build as always Skinnygoat!
Could you do DK & Sorc next?
I’d arcanist top dps in latest patch or if not what is and what’s the set ups?
So.... how would a magcanist work?😅
@@skoopernootle pretty much the same you just change all the stam stuff to magicka
the builds on your website will they be updated to u44?
probably not. we'll see though. if things are looking good for u45 I might do another pass on them
Hi, can i use the pilar of nirn set instead of deadly?
I don’t like it quite as much but it’s still a good option!
@skinnycheeks ty for answering! Question does the build changes for Infinite Archive?
Link is broken for gear setup without trial gear
@@a1eszencia664 thank you. I’ve updated it twice now and it keeps breaking. I’ll try again
tinyurl.com/mw27kj9n try that one
@@skinnycheeks doing Gods work !!!
You're the GOAT my guy. Missed seeing your videos. Keep up the good work man!
Flame better then lighting ? On staff
@@youngl1518 very slightly for most setups. Both work fine though cause they both buff your beam
What are the addons you are running? Your interface looks super clean!!
Thanks! Fancy action bar + and then azurah to move stuff around is most of what you’re seeing. Exoy has a couple of addons for tracking stuff too, crux tracker and proc set timer.
On the 1.5 bar are you useing double dual wield or something
yeah, but you can do bow or staff front bar too, I show both setups
@skinnycheeks have staff setup and unfortunately I can't pass 109k
Hey @skinnycheeks. I have 2 questions becouse I cant understand priority:
1. 13:17 of video 18s of parse you have 2 seconds left of fluminating? Should recasting rune before beam be better and then beam?

@@skinnycheeks thank you very much. I'll try this skill arrangement then :)
How do you know when you are over the caps on criticals or penetration? Is there an addon to measure these things?
I have some charts on my website of common sources. Not really great ways in-game to tell though without just adding it up.
Pillar of nirn not that good anymore ?
16:06 65k dps "spammable" . Better nerf jabs zos
Ayeee he’s back at it again! Voice sounds like he’s still sad about the game though 🥲
Would this work for the archive? Swapping out flex slots for defensive options and adding a pale order ring for healing?
Great vid!
Ia builds are different than normal pve if you wanna go far, but if ur not a sweat at it, then any decent build can get you through some arcs
@mrstoleurdog3873 thanks :) im decently new to this so i appreciate your response.
@@Rubynante is the w upside down in ur pfp?
@@Rubynante crazy enough is some of the strongest builds for ia are craftable :)
@@mrstoleurdog3873 it is xD
With bow on front bar should i use brp daggers on back bar or maelstrom staff?
@@tristan364 staff is slightly more dmg. Daggers are more survival and easier rotation.
I REALLY appreciate these guides, but I am wondering is there someone who offers such a good quality like SkinnyCheeks for PvP builds??
Does spectral cloak still work if you swap to another weapon after it's activated using the arena weapon?
Yeah. You just need to make sure it’s activated in combat
*general question** - is the new PvP battleground maps out yet?
Thanks Skinny. Would Null Arca/Sentinel work if doing a maelstrom BB, or you think BRP daggers are needed for that build?
@@rwmorris35 yeah it’d work with that too
Hey are you absolutely certain magical damage covers all elements? Usually magic means strictly magic type as it's own element (war maiden for example). If it covers all that would be great though!
Magic Damage is one type, MagicAL damage is all the elements + magic damage. I'm using a magical banner and I can see it increase the damage for my flame enchantments while active
Yep exactly what Ryuu said
@@Ryuu798 very cool. That gives me something to consider for my non "magic" elemental builds. I had kinda written off that banner as being too niche for anything but a nb or a plar.
Is there a reason you use Null Arca only for dummy and not in trials?
@@Obliv1on not as reliable for AoE
Null arca never miss. So, it is very good trial "everyday" set.
@@ЯрославСуський untrue , if there are any other ads in the fight it could proc on a random add thus loosing dmg
@@midnightsoulband9320 you damage part of boss fight or encounter. So, why you loose damage?
@@ЯрославСуський if it procs on a random low health ad and not the high prority target it is a loss of dmg or more to the point dmg where dmg isn't needed
Thanks! Any chance to know what are the motifs?
I can check when I’m logged in and streaming tomorrow.

@@Jefeblaksta not really. Maybe a tiny percent
@ thanks for responding
Havent messed around with scribing. Is pure iceden finally doable?
It’s not meta but you can get quite a few ice skills going, yeah. Shalks will still be poison or magic though. Those are way too good to drop
Awesome guide as always, you're the best to follow as ESO player 👏
The problem is, how to obtain gear and get better if you cant find people to play trials, even on normal difficulty. The game is empty right now, sadly.
Yeah your best odds are joining trial guilds for that
Is fiery blockade better then unstable wall of elements now jsut returning to the game after a long time
They are pretty close for most setups. Better on arcanist for more beam time. The stronger your main spam, the better case for the longer dot in blockade.
W, looking forward to play Arcanist
Welcome back!
What about runecarver + deadly strike?
@@FernandoPerez-zx2vz if you don’t have trial gear yet you could do that. Wouldn’t be my preferred combo though.
I tested it right when arc came out and it performed pretty decent. I hit in the 90s (I peaked at 112 on that patch). So maybe 95k if I were a bit better? Def viable if you already have it on hand, but not the best

@@zisskazed deadly and whorl is nice
Why not to go with heroism banner with trap & rune/contingency and get crit chance from pots instead of camo. Especially for parse, because tri stats are much more expensive.
@@rader354 if that works for your sustain and you have the right class in your comp to boost your minor crit chance buff then you could do that, sure
Some buffs and debuffs can passively boost yo? Minor Force buff increases your critical damage by 10%.?
No views after 5 seconds. It's ESOver 😔
For you yes
Hold up. Is that you as an Arcanist in the thumbnail???
Now you need to do a BG 3 Warlock Pact of the Tome run.
U forgot "Uhhh Hi"! 😂
