I have a question about this build. Maybe I missed it. Why do you run deadly strikes if you aren’t using the beam? What does it buff? Is it just for ultimate? It doesn’t buff the runeblades or anything does it? Malacath is an interesting choice and gives me a reason to bring it out again! I want to use this build I’m just trying to understand why is all 😊
Cool build! i do something kind of similar, im curious why you chose ice staff for your backbar over sword and board? wouldnt you want the extra cost reduction to help sustain?
i basically created a magicka (destro/sword and shield) version of this build that uses dots and then channeled burst spells. I wanted to do a stam version - you beat me to it. gg
Dear HoarCrux, I desperately need your help & guidance! I’ve tried to follow your build for the arcanist, but these damn dk’s are kicking my butt. I am willing to learn, if you ever have the time. Thanks, a new fan of yours. Barbara
fun fact: i tried nearly the same same build same day arcanist came out... but i got sword and shield ulti "spell wall" backbar in combination with vampire skill "drain vigor"... u just load up ur stam and hp when on ulti and u dont mind about incoming dmg... that is working quite good in battlegrounds, too... i took potentates set backbar, though... crux´s build seems more fine adjusted, though... cause with wretched that will kick ass much longer... or should we try put dark conv on instead? u can go vatesh sword and shield and kinda nasty way pull the zerg by "reverberating bash" ... haha... 2sec b4 ur abyssal shield ulti reflects u just pull and cast dark conv... haha that would be the arcan supreme bombing...
Wow great build. I just came back to ESO after leaving for 3 years. I love the arcanist so far, but have only gotten pve gear etc in the last month. I am just now dabbling in PVP and have a great 1v1 setup. I am building out this build, and I am wondering if you wouldn't mind doing a cliff notes version of your basic rotation on this build. If not, thanks for all you have helped with already!!!
@@chaotic_tier-0029 thanks for the reply! I just realized that I wasn't that specific in the latter half of my comment, I was referring to arcanist in general in 1v1 scenarios.
I don't know what is wrong I have the same setup but you have about 3,000 more health than I do. Everything is pretty much identical. I even have and infused health glyph on one of the armor pieces. When I say about the same you have tri-stat glyphs and I just use straight-up health
Going to try your build, but one question though... why the ice staff over say a lightning staff? Is there a reason that depends on the Ice Staff that I missed. I prefer a lightning staff because it does damage to other enemies as well. Just curious and maybe you can explain that or just tell you have a preference to Ice Staff. Thanks!
I actaully was using a build very similar to this but I had sea serpents instead of malacath. I like yours better though cause now I can take off camo hunter and not worry about crit
Now my only thing is pains refuge cp, potentially reducing your incoming dmg by 20% but if your play is to absorb as much dmg as possible thrn unleash it it might be better with another cp??
@@Homesteadhumor People keep saying it's not very good, relying on proc sets, people saying good players will always dodge the beam, etc. I don't get it. It seems amazing. Some of the stuff it can do is just absolutely wild.
@@AllThingsFascinate I do think it’s good but I still think dk and night blade are better … the beam is op you need to stun them then beam them… the stun gives minor brittle which is great … I think as a healer this is god tier but I wouldn’t want to duel anyone with this for money 💰I don’t love it
You didn't break squat because they just nerfed Arcanist. You now lose your crux after 30 seconds, even in combat. And you lose all crux icons and crux buffs after you have been out of combat for 30 seconds. No more pre-buffing that beam. And it has the bonus side effect that I no longer have to see 37 million green triangles in every damn town and wayshrine....
It’s ah shit Ton of ppl throwing green Doritos at me calling themselves arcanist I bought necrom for the redguard companion that was it I didn’t care for the class I like my stamplar I am going to make a character that uses it though so I can see what the fuss is all about might even turn my stamplar into in arcanist just to see what skill merge with it and which ones don’t cuz the vampire back bar just lacks to me I would have loved to pair my stamplar with arcanist abilities but that ain’t gonna happen lol imagine being able to pick two classes we gone break the game
@Hoarcrux oh I see. 👀 I didn't know that. I think I'll try to put arcanist domain on front bar instead 🤔 of that healing ult. That should proc the passive too.
Hard to take u serious as a strong player If i see misstakes like this 😅 Lord: 2200 HP Rings: 860 Stam, 170 wp, ~550 Recovery = Relevant ressource ~3k, 170 wp, 550 Recovery Snake: 303 Recovery Rings: tristate 1400 Stam, mag & hp, 170 wp, 350 Recovery = Relevant ressource 2,8k, 170 wp, 650 Recovery (+1400 Mana as Bonus)
Just came back to eso after a 2 year hiatus the build looks insane I wanna run it but don't have the mythic is there any other option that I could replace it with?
What's fun about a 1 button build? Basically it's overpowered d-staff heavy attacks. I don't get how pushing the same button over & over is fun but to each their own.
Have a big shield and take the most damage you can. If you use, Lefhanders mythic belt, you get a free shield when you roll dodge to further push the damage higher on Abysal Shield
Its interesting how inconsistent the info is about gibbering ult. Some creators say it is not affected by pen or any buffs, yet i know abyssal ink for sure buffs it. Some say you can use shield abilities while the ult it up and it doesnt hurt the damage. I'd be interested in seeing more community testing to really get it minmaxed
As stated previously this build just isn't good there is way better in slot options and if you beam your doing it wrong brawler builds are far superior beams are easily countered.
I don't see it getting nerf if tht gets nerf ppl or really stupid number one stop attacking is counter play to tht.. So if thy nerf it im going to laugh so much ill get a headache
lol i pvp bg often, the arcanist is sooo unfair unless of course YOU are an arcanist. it really is hilarious to watch your team of 4 get melted by one arcanist. i think its great fun but so very OP it ranks 1st then necros and then DK from just counting kills - 33 kils? 35 kills? lots of fun but no talent needed. just use the beam - i hate the color though. nuclear green.
I know your talking about Deltia ? Man was making ESO videos when you were in pampers boi lol😂 respect your elders . Oh and your baby reference really shows your mind set btw . Sad really 💔. Hope you grow up .
My worst nightmare is a full team of arcanist on battleground they just stun and hit with fate carver or ult and no matter your build two fate carvers or two ults and you’re dead
Lol yeah must have. Also, I’m sure those content creators don’t appreciate being subtly called out like that. It might mimic that time you got called out by Zilla a while back which did not go well. I like your content but it seems like you asking for this stuff.
Op sleeper??? Using deadly for beam and wv for sustain, that literally the meta templar slapped on an arcanist Sry but when i see "sleeper" im waiting for unique set up with forgotten sets..... And its not broken, its just good or meta, oaken dk were broken, not only because they one shot ppl but cause you cant kill them too, arcanist dont have that. And why calling other build "proctard"??? Wv is a proc too, bs is a proc too sooooo.....
@@Hoarcrux nothing against the build mate, but slapping the best sustain set with the best dmg set for beam and ult is what is called meta, and clearly want us to use fatecarver....so sleeper build should not be about doing what they want us to
Legit tho .. I don't even check other RUclipsrs for advice anymore ...they thirsty for content ...while you research and bring us quality ...respect
Literally multiple people using this already on RUclips

Hahaha sweet I’ve been running pretty much this since day 1 😂. Just had to as soon as I read that skill description 😅😅😅
What addon is for the buff timers on the left?
Have you tried out death dealers fete with this?
Great build, and I think I am going to try it out! What is that white dye you're using?
Lamaes white
Wow great build. I just came back to ESO after leaving for 3 years. I love the arcanist so far, but have only gotten pve gear etc in the last month.

I am missing something big, but your ultimate is 129k damage. I have half of that. It scales from health, but I have 41k. What am I missing?
I agree, I would love to learn your rotation as well!
Have you tried the druid set with this?
For a solo stam (pve) build, would a Nord or Imperial be fine? I am atm a Breaton but switched to Stam so :D
How would this exact build fare in a battlegrounds scenario? Also curious about its potential in one on one confrontations.
This isn't a build designed for 1v1 engagements. It's a Zerg-Buster build.

@@caseycardenas1668 oh in general it is a great dueler class
Why don’t you use the book? I’m a noob but it seems very strong
Can nord work in place of imperial? Whats a decent race if wedonthave imperial.
Yep it's arguably better for sustain in some cases
@@Hoarcrux good, thats what I got to work with
I don't know what is wrong I have the same setup but you have about 3,000 more health than I do. Everything is pretty much identical. I even have and infused health glyph on one of the armor pieces. When I say about the same you have tri-stat glyphs and I just use straight-up health
Found it. It was the missing undaunted skill line
Any suggestions for alternate monster sets?
Love the setup cant wait to try it
Hope you enjoy it!
I saw your stream yesterday. very funny! I want to try this build changing deadly for Shalk Exoskeleton
Perfectly valid replacement but you can craft heroism potions for that
🎉 this build is great 👍 watched it through stream
Hope you enjoyed it!
Hey bro is Orc good choice for this build ?
Yes 100%
I haven't really done any pvp but I may start now
I'm here to help!
Great, now people know no to attack the bubble :(
Cool build tho, was there for that first clip
same
They dont attack bubble then i agro guards and they will pop the bubble.. 😅
Most zerglings will attack it anyway we know this
Going to try your build, but one question though... why the ice staff over say a lightning staff? Is there a reason that depends on the Ice Staff that I missed. I prefer a lightning staff because it does damage to other enemies as well. Just curious and maybe you can explain that or just tell you have a preference to Ice Staff. Thanks!
The block mitigation passives from the destroyed skill line
@@Hoarcrux Gotcha, I forgot about the blocking passive mitigation of the Ice Staff. Thanks for refreshing my memory.
would dark elf be a decent race choice as well?
Dark elf is a great race for all classes
Can someone explain to me why he is using Vampirism stage 3 if it increases the costs of his human skills?
Undeath passive. Provides 30% damage mitigation when low health
How do u have the engine guardian shoulder piece without using the dwarven sphere ability is that dwarven sphere even useful?
It was a Motif at one point. You can still buy it
Hey, nice build, does Jorvuld's buff the Ultimate shield?
what would be a good perfected arena weapon to use on this build?
I actaully was using a build very similar to this but I had sea serpents instead of malacath. I like yours better though cause now I can take off camo hunter and not worry about crit
Yep my thought exactly!
WHATS THE ROTATION FOR THIS
Any good replacements for the deadly set?
Draugerkin
@Hoarcrux how's it do in bgs
Now my only thing is pains refuge cp, potentially reducing your incoming dmg by 20% but if your play is to absorb as much dmg as possible thrn unleash it it might be better with another cp??
Not if you're taking way too much damage and they pop your bubble super quick
That shield is stupid ridiculous.
Wouldnt draugrkin work good or better ?
Only use draugerkin when you have fast hitting small dots. For slow hitting big dots, deadly is vastly better
Dude keeps crushing it like always
Enjoying the Arcanist?

Do you have any idea how easy and fast it is to build crux?
Hi, this seems interesting. 🙂 What about draugrkin grip set instead of deadly? Would that be better or worse? Just curious...
Have a nice day 💋
Draugerkin only works better for faster hitting small dots. Deadly is better for the slow hitting heavy dots
@Hoarcrux oh I see. 👀 I didn't know that. I think I'll try to put arcanist domain on front bar instead 🤔 of that healing ult. That should proc the passive too.
What about daedric trickery for major heroism?
I tried both, I didn't feel like heroism. Helped me get the kills I needed. I prefer the insane sustain so I can go all out
How come you’re not getting the 5 piece bonus on your second set? It’s grayed out?
Nice vid gr8 explanations, really interested in the 1 bar build, look forward to it…
can this build be used in pve if so whats sets should i use
I have to apply buffs and then just spam runeblades ???
good build but vs meta groups it not will function have tested vs 6 best players they will wait for end ulti then kill from ranged 😅
