I remember watching Skinny's first couple videos being like "Whoah, so gud, gimme mur, I is happi" and now his channel has grown so much. Keep it up Skinny, the ESO community needs guys like you!
Uuuhhh... brilliant. As someone that likes to help newer players and has trouble not confusing them this video is a great resource. Thanks so much for this so clear and concise.
I’ve always always struggled with being “good” in games because I’ve always been hella confused by stats and what they say compared to what that means in real world practice. It’s really made me feel chained to premade builds rather than comfortable to explore builds and sets on my own. Between you and hack, I really feel like I have the tools I need to understanding stats and sets and how to weave it all together to MAKE a build. Thank you, so incredibly much. I’m slowly growing from a mediocre at best player to a GOOD player. And it’s all thanks to think kind of stat explanation. Thank you SO much
Oh Wow! Exactly what I was looking for. Am still fairly new to the game and this is gold. Will watch this several times for sure to understand all the details and how to apply them. Thanks!
Dammit, this would have been amazing two or three months ago when I started getting serious about increasing my DPS! I'm looking forward to the next parts though, I feel like I'm going to learn some things :-D !
something you said in the video at 4:34 that i don't fully agree with is that if your resistances are over 33000 that it is wasted resistance. This is not completely true as if you are hit with an ability that rips your resistances then you will no longer have the 50% mitigation, you will find that it is better to spec higher than 33000 if you are going into environments where your resistances are being ripped so you don't fall below the mitigation cap essentially
Skinny Cheeks Gaming understandable. But in context of the statement people might think in general rule of thumb that this would apply as common sense is not that common after all xD. But none the less still a great vid
Hey, one question to the StamPlar PvE. If you wanna do a open world build for 4 man dungeons etc. I dont like relequen. Would it be good to use selene/briarheart/deadly or do you got a better combination? And how would you go, deadly on weap and briarheart full body or better the other way around? TY
So i have a question im an endgame player but i wonder what are your thoughts on race in eso. Like do you think godslayer is possible with 8 nord dds for example? How much does race matter i know it matter for max dps but will that racial difference prevent content completion at the highest level too?
I have to say I main stamina but for some trials they only want magica dps this is a constant problem your going to have as stamina main so I would advise to make a couple mag dps, mag cro is highly desired in trail groups or go with magblade as youl hit hard and can be squeezed into most groups.
yeah true, but metas always shift. just a couple of patches back, stamina was the more desirable of the two. so who knows how it will be in a patch or two.
Great video! One thing that I would like to know, is weighting on penetration vs. critical strike vs. critical damage. For example, is penetration always preferred until cap, or is there a point of diminishing returns?
yeah fair point. I didn't really talk about the weight of the set bonuses. but you are correct, until you hit cap, penetration is the strongest of the bonuses. then crit, then wpn/spl dmg, then the resource stat.
Does anyone know of anyone that has made a table or video on on how much crit is acceptable or need before putting into damage. Eg- mothers/ sororia will give more dps than mothers/medusa. Wondering if with kilt running 2 damage sets is viable.
Do you know why when I put points into my Magika some stamina costing abilities still gain damage? Even though it doesn’t say on the tooltip that it will? For example hurricane on my sorcerer still gains damage when I put points into magika even though it costs stamina
Hey there. This vid you are commenting on is pretty old now! I recommend you check out my latest vid released as I go through a bit on the hybrid scaling. But they changed it up a few patches back where your skills scale with your highest stats.
what do you think is the best AOE class right now for farming skyreach and xp farms i general, i want to level up the best one rn im mainly looking at magblade magnight and a most of all mag necro.
the link was to a guide that I wrote. some people like written, some people prefer to not read and watch a video. if you'd rather look at my written guide, sure go ahead lol
in pve for stamblade only shadow, pen u can got from CP, mark, wep trait . Stamblades has got high crit chance, crit dmg(10% from passives), best way its to maxed crit power.
Uhhhh how could you Put all that necessary information in a ten min. Video...make it perfectly understandable and visually pleasing???!! The great Alpaca is with you!!! XD
resistances are based off the old Vet rank system and treats the player lvl as 66 (lvl 50 plus 16 vet ranks). % Mitigation = Armor or Spell Resistance / (Level * 10) So to get 50% mitigation the formula needs to be 33,000 / 66 * 10 meaning that 50% mitigation is 33,000 Armor / Spell Resist at Level 50. Enemy NPCs are treated as lvl 50, not 66. so that's why they are based off the 50,000 value for 100% instead of 66,000.
danny nicholson hmm not really sure. I’ve seen a few numbers floating around that are close to 33k but the 33k is the only one I’ve seen backed up with formulas before. I def could be wrong though. Just based off what I’ve seen it makes the most sense.
just to clarify, the cap for enemy NPCs is 18200, I was just demonstrating that if their resistances COULD go higher, 25000 would be exactly 50%. That's the value that the numbers are based around. For enemy players though, 33k resists is the cap at 50%
@@skinnycheeks that's what i've... doesn't metter - we've understand each other) Monthes ago i've testing NMA based builds for roller: NMA+: 1) Spriggan (~5%+ penetration) 2) Shield breaker (6% increased dmg) 3) Essence thief (10% inc_dmg) Cozi'm a loner - i've testing it on 3 mil dummy.

Dude you need to keep these "break shit down into duplo blocks" videos coming. Just found your channel. Good shit dude. 👊

awesome. thanks for watching!
I've played eso for sooooo long and still learned things from this video, thanks for helping the community with these guides!
nice! I'm hoping there will be a little bit of something for everyone in these.
This is the best channel for ESO imo. Explained so well.
Good vids Skinnycheeks!
thank you!
thank you SO MUCH! i finally start to understand what is going on - thanks to your videos!
Very well put together video, and very easy to understand.
Great job again!

Absolutely love it, great video i like the way you explain everything with those numbers it makes it so much clearer
nice. i was hoping to not make it too overwhelming with numbers so I'm glad it was clear
Great video! Now we are waiting for the Vampire-Necromancer Mana Guide!)

magplar is probably the easiest i'd say
that dance on the end lol
lol love that polymorph
Nice, tyvm 🌹❤️❤️👍
Before 1 min in the video, I’m done you posted the links for better info than your own? Weird but thanks.
the link was to a guide that I wrote. some people like written, some people prefer to not read and watch a video. if you'd rather look at my written guide, sure go ahead lol
Shouldn’t I hit people crazy hard if I have more pen than they have resistances
As long as your other stats are good as well, you should.
@@skinnycheeks okay thanks for reply 🙏🏾
When dealing with vet Maelsrom on my stamblade, would you recommend Lover mundus over Shadow?
in pve for stamblade only shadow, pen u can got from CP, mark, wep trait . Stamblades has got high crit chance, crit dmg(10% from passives), best way its to maxed crit power.
when are greymoor builds coming?
got a couple already. day 1 nerfs threw a lot of the testing down the trash can though so a lot of stuff is a bit delayed.

The misconception is 33000 is NOT 50% 33200 os 50% according to superstar
resistances are based off the old Vet rank system and treats the player lvl as 66 (lvl 50 plus 16 vet ranks).
% Mitigation = Armor or Spell Resistance / (Level * 10)
So to get 50% mitigation the formula needs to be 33,000 / 66 * 10 meaning that 50% mitigation is 33,000 Armor / Spell Resist at Level 50.
Enemy NPCs are treated as lvl 50, not 66. so that's why they are based off the 50,000 value for 100% instead of 66,000.
@@skinnycheeks makes sense so why is superstar telling me otherwise? Bad programming?

@@skinnycheeks I just dont get what I should go by? Maybe try drop 200 resist and see if it makes a difference
Hm... Dat 25000 armor 50% cap explains a lot. That's why pen is so good on parces and why I shouldn't test pvp builds on any dummy
just to clarify, the cap for enemy NPCs is 18200, I was just demonstrating that if their resistances COULD go higher, 25000 would be exactly 50%. That's the value that the numbers are based around. For enemy players though, 33k resists is the cap at 50%
