Honestly I've watched probably every single "Improve your DPS" video on here, currently at CP 260 on my first and only toon, maxing at about 20k on single target, which I'm told is "passable" or "good" especially for a new player. THIS is my favorite video - first of all, 100% on practice dummy's!! My DPS went from 10k to 20k IN A COUPLE HOURS, just by practicing my rotation, incorporating weaving. I also love way you break things down with simplicity. Didn't have the cooldown bar but I do now and can't wait to see how it improves my DPS!
I have been playing ESO since the beginning and I learned a couple tricks I had been missing, your video is clear and well thought out, thanks.
Thx for this video. I’ve always had trouble with dps. I got the light attacks down. I was reapplying dots before they expired. Once I focused on that I added 15k dps. Thx
Thanks dude, me and the boys got into eso the past 2 weeks and hit level 50 and felt stonewalled by the increased difficulty with veteran content but your videos have defiantly been helping me out
Thanks to you LA weaving is not even a habit for me, it's a part of me. Because I watched your videos before actually starting to play the game. And I'm using the LA weaving since my first character was level 1 lol. Guides are very important. Btw, most of the times I see the LA as a second or third best damage source in my damage output. So yeah, it's that important guys.
What an awesome video for players of all levels. Well done, again, Lucky! 🤘🏼
“Try to be 10k per 100cp”
*me who only hits 30k at 682cp* 👁👄👁
Throw everything in Warfare to wep and spell damage
Me at 15k at 240 lol
I hit 65k at 700cp
@@user-hv9yo4pp8h are you a mag sorc? If so .....please, teach me your ways oh great one.
When I’m at 1200cp and not hitting 120k : )
I absolutely hate parsing, but I had to because, as you said, I needed the practice. After I learned from you how to weave my light attacks, my dps went up by 40k in a span of 3 weeks as I'm missing way fewer light attacks and got better with my rotation, aside from swapping a few set pieces around to maximize bonuses upkeep.
So yeah, everything you said is true, and once again thank you!
love this!
I had no idea how hard it was to play this game until I learned how weak I was. I go to this Lucky Guy's videos all the time to learn more about how to be a better player and I think I've really learned a lot. So thx bro 😊
Been watching your videos for a while but never did a parse - last night I did my first parse. 44k. I'm not happy with it, but this video has reminded me that I certainly don't have my dream gear and I know my LA weaving needs work. This vid also came out at the perfect time with those LA helper addon suggestions. Much love!
Wow. Absolutely by far the best video ive found coming from a fairly new player. Incredible information. Thank you
You are 100% right. Just did my first 100k parse on Dummy with my CP 1060 Stamblade and it was really a slow burn. Alle the little things kept adding up. When I first started out it was 45, then 60 then 80 , 90 and finally 100.
Along the way I changed from Briarheart + Hunding to Relequen + Kinras, Golded it out, changed my Selenes Monster Set to Harpooners Wading Kilt + Slimecraw Head, put on the right expensive Enchants etc. for every step I took I noticed a slight increase in DPS.
I still have a Ring to gold out and get perfected Relequen so I think I could go even further than 100. At least 110 is my next goal now. And one other thing that everyone has to do and I can not stress this point enough: practice - practice - practice!!!
Until your rotation and priority list seeps into your soul and body and you start having haunting nightmares about it you did not practice enough. It has to become second nature. And learn to read Logs/Combat Metrics or ask someone experienced to do it for you to highlight areas for improvement.
Good Luck to y'all and Lucky love your channel keep it up man. You and NefasQS are my favourites.
Great videos, would you ever consider adding time stamps in the videos themselves? Especially for somewhat longer ones like this
amazing tutor. even when going through the points i think i know all about it doesnt get boring when it turns out to be true, keeping it interesting until the information that i was lacking drops. you have an awfully low subscriber count for the level of quality youre doing man, keep up your good work!
Good video man glad i stumbled on your video! JUst returned back to eso been about a year so trying to get back into it this was a great refresher.
The ghostly hits just keep coming! Great video Lucky 💯
You have the best ESO videos out there because you talk about things in a broader sense. I cook while I watch TH-cam and other videos where they're breaking things down with loads of numbers and spreadsheets is impossible to follow.
But you present similar information in an approachable and conversational way. I was shocked to see you had less than 500k subs.
Keep it up brother. I've turned on that Bell because I've found myself checking your channel a few times a day to see if you've uploaded anything new lol.
Damn man, thank you for these incredible words 😊
This was soooo unbelievably helpful!! Thank you subbed
Great video for new players. Good Work!
Love the content bro thank you fro all the suggestions and help, definitely earned the sub.
I been soloing up to level 20 now. I still don't know all the acronyms and terms being used but I love this game.
the best acronyms video for ESO th-cam.com/video/yhE44xjxQcw/w-d-xo.html
Been soloing since 2016, it’s completely possible. Keep going!
dps means damage per second
I had to stop this video as soon as he started using acronyms. Made this video totally pointless in my opinion.
@@wfcompton7848 been soloing since 2014. Prolly why i still suck. But enjoy playing. Of course a lot of down time. (Work)
Dude, thank you so much for this video.
Very Helpful Tips, Thank You Much. I Greatly Appreciate Your Videos!
Awesome video! Thanks for the tips!
Thanks for always being informative!
Great video. TONS of helpful info for newbs like me. Thank you.
Your eso vids are great man. Never comment but always watch.
Ummm you just commented... lol. BUT I do agree with you! Take care RVA .
I genuinely appreciate your videos like this. Especially knowing how time consuming they are. You make everything clear and well defined making it easier to understand. I think you're videos alone have increased my dps by probably 15k (if not 20). Don't comment on videos often, but really wanted to let you know that you are genuinely helping people, so thank you
You can never say that again lol 😂
I came here to participate in this comment section. Lol.
Thanks for the advice. I had a 3M dummy at my house I couldn’t figure out why my dps was so low because I was sure I was hitting much harder than it was showing. Sure enough I tested on a 21M dummy and it was SO much better. Whew! Very timely help for me. Can’t say thanks enough.
Holy shit dude my first parses are 13 and change and I’m a month into the game and feeling exactly like you said like “wtf” but I’m also using purple everything I’m shit at keeping potions up (maybe 30% uptime) and worse on DOT/AOE application (maybe 20-25% uptime) you had a way of making me feel like I’m not an alien or a complete shit can at the game. I mean I’m ok being a shit can as long as I can get better.
Thanks bro
looking back, I really talked slow on this one, I won't be offended if you watch it in 1.5 or 2x lol. Sorry about that!

Watching this a 2 years later, as someone coming to the game for the first time. I really appriciate the slow explanation 😅 alot of info to take in.
Very well done! Now I need to write all these things down so I can remember everything :)
Thanks lacombe!
Me *looking at him intensely*
Lucky, your character has wings....how are you stuck on an island?🤔
He could also just drown him self and magicaly get teleported back into a town by wayshrine. Or maybe scream at some dadric God enough that they open a portal to send minions to kill him, kill the minions and go into whatever plane they came from. Better than a boring old island
Ostriches have wings... can they fly?
How do you get wings in the game? Can I get them before the 26th when it won't be free anymore? lol
I'd like to fly, but my wings have been so denied.
10 point to anyone who recognises the song.
Little wng, big armr
This video makes me feel so much better and got me excited to go back to parse dummy to try a more single target oriented bars. Maxing at 28k dps at 180cp but seeing video of build pulling 90-100k dps just made me think I was really bad
Thanks for the vid. Those 10k per 100 CP points calmed be down.
I hit 89,9k dps with my MagSorc CP 760.
I felt stuck and stupid for not progressing. Wearing Bashei, kinra, slimecraw 1pc and the kilt. And maelstrom staff of course
All gold but the rings.
Cps hopefully will get me to 100k and above :)
At the moment I build my magcro as raid lead wants more cro in the mix.. Haha
2nd time your vid has been superior in explanation and more helpful so I subbed and liked and all that full support g. Love u
Thanks man!
I almost skipped this thinking "i already know", glad i watch this. my dps did go up about 15k. Thanks man.
Nice work!
What's the intro music?
Hey Miracle! (love your work btw!) That would be Streambeats - Killjoy's Chicken th-cam.com/video/fHoQUCyQvVs/w-d-xo.html
@@LuckyGhost Awesome, thank you! I love your vids too mate, helped me out big time when I got back into ESO this year :)
Subscribed. Keep up the good work
Subscribed too
I usually pars on the regular skeleton dummy because in my pog groups I get tanks that run ebon/Leaching, and a healer with sanctuary most the time :)
Another Great Addon.... Weave Delays, it will tell you whether or not your early or late or missed LA's plus also lets you know your uptimes on skills and delays
Tyrael teaching us to deal damage in ESO, best teacher. :)
good tips, thanks lucky
Nice job, LG. Have you done anything on the best food and drink to make?
right now lava foot for stam, ghastly eye bow for mag :)
Lucky is the man. His videos are always on point and he helps tons of people to improve and be better players
Been waiting on dis👀
Hey Ghost :)
First of: great videos!! Always entertaining and more importantly extremely informative! ;)
I recreated your solo sorcerer build or tbh still trying to get all of the stuff :D
I got all mother's sorrow parts you recommended in divine but like you probably already guessed - I got a lot of other stuff from mother's sorrow, plague doctor and night mother... Now my question: do you already have any video online or something like that where I can see what traits are the best on weapons and gear of mother's sorrow, plague doctor and night mother? Because I was planning on selling them but I also need gold... Cuz, you know... Researches :D
Or maybe you can just tell me what I have to look out for - like I'm always keeping divine MS gear, precise and infused MS Flame Staffs... But after that my knowledge leaves me :\
Please illuminate me ;D
Yes I have a written guide linked in thrdescription of each build with all the traits :)
This is an awesome vid man, also can you please tell me what it is your wearing, much appreciated (as in cosmetics)
What armour styles are those?? Looks amazing
Nice video Lucky!
Should I have separate ability bar setups (front as well as back bar) for solo and aoe targets? I dont feel I have enough Ability slots for both
850cp ish and most of my builds hang around 10-30k lol but I'm all solo builds
Also, enjoyed the video and learned a couple things =)
Thanks for the information. I got alot to work on lol...
Lucky about how much dmg am I missing if parsing without food? Can you do a short video maybe showing the gap or loss?
Idk why I felt this was going to be a simple “get gooder” followed up by Rick roll lmfao
Light Attacking depends on your rotation, and When you are in your rotation. Heavy Attacks are also important to Sustain. If you run out of Resources, then your DPS drops to about 0. Light attack weave is at least as important, but there's also Passives from sets, and even Altmer (A heavy attack is Channeled, so you get the 5% damage reduction from that) that synergize with heavy Attacks. A good rotation isn't always light attack, nor always heavy attack, but knowing When to tap that button, when to hold it down, and when to release it. If you just tap, spam, tap, spam rinse repeat, you'll burn up one of your bars before your durations time out. That's Burst, not DPS. The only time I Burst in a Boss Fight is in Execute Mode to end it before I have to run through the rotation a few more times.
Okay, I have an exception to the general rule of "Only burst a boss in Execute mode" but that's a very specific Hybrid Sorcerer with the Stygian Set (Weapons, and Rings) That gives me a big boost of Spell Power when I leave Stealth, and I don't have to tell you about Sorcerer Burst. So, I buff up, and put 1 very painful arrow in that boss from Stealth, then drop Ballista, barswap, and Burst for 15 seconds when I have the most damage. However, that's not even close to a normal rotation, it's built from the start for Burst, and only whips out the bow to pull the Boss into position with the Tank in front of me. (Okay, Hasty Retreat for Major Expedition just to run faster without using an Ability slot.)
Depends how you build your char. All of the highest parses (100k dps on a 21 million trial dummy ) only light attack
@@LuckyGhost That's exactly what I'm saying: It depends on your build.
it's about time i subbed
I've been playing a NB off-and-on since 2019. I wanted to get into pvp, but it's too frustrating because I die in like 1-2 hits. I wanted to move on then to focusing on pve, but it feels... boring? The best builds seem to recommend a super rigid playstyle setting up traps and using one ability. I only wind up using 2 class abilities ( an execute, and the 'attack 5 times and shoot an arrow' ), and none of the weapon abilities I was so excited for ( Dual wield ). Do you have any recommendations for what to do here?
Try my stamblade build it sounds like exactly what you say you want!
so helpful thank you
thank you for the note on 10k per 100 CP, I was getting demoralised thinking I was missing something after I got 90% of the way there with my gear and everything on my sorc, still 'only' doing 25-30k dps in dungeons at CP 230 or so... they look like such small benefits I'm still not sure how it triples the damage, but hey I'll wait and see :) obviously with help from gold gear (already have gold weapon)
Haha great video man, funny I did my first parse the other day and got 12k as well! Managed to get it to 18k but then found out there was a lot wrong with my build. Where do you find the big parsing dummy that gives you the buffs and things or do you have to buy it?
Join a guild and use theirs orrr you can buy it from the crown store thats only accessible while you're in your house
@@LuckyGhost Oh that must be the expensive one I seen in the purchase tab! Dam should of spent a bit more as I got the second dearest one. Thanks for the reply man!
sorry for the noob question but can you have 1 potion & 1 food active at the same time...do bonuses stack or at least work at the same time?
Yes they stack. Always have food on
Food stacks with potions but not drinks. Basically pick a food or a drink with a potion.
Fairly new to the game but I’m 200 CP and got my two 5 pc sets, Law of Julianos and Mother’s sorrow on my front bar, then went and tried to parse on a frost atronach in my guild and I was hitting like 10K. Seeing how most people say you need at least 20 before you should consider Vet dungeons i was mortified, now im seeing the dummy makes a big difference
Damn, I learnt a tonne here. Just small stuff I have overlooked that have been adding up to make me stink. Like the 5 pre-Trials martinis may not be helping. Note: potions go into character not player.
for nightblade merciless resolve is a great skill, light attacks proc it, so u want forget to light attack. For beginner players I recommend nightblade there good at stam and magic builds. The magic builds are very simple to use. Stam dps is harder than magic dps.
Nightblades are NOT beginner friendly. Especially not Stamina. Roll a Templar instead.
I'm new an still not sure what jewelry sets. IV made 9 toons for doing writs an they are starting to reach Level 30. Was wondering if you have a guide on this. Like best set for heal or tank ect. If not would be a good video to make. Keep up the awesome work bro you rock.
eso.justlootit.com has builds for every class and every role with the best sets for each :)
@@LuckyGhost but you tell it better. Jk lol. Good look out
what addon puts the dot on the target health bar?
As a Healer I’m always a bit self conscious about my DPS. I try to maintain a balance of decent heals and decent DPS and I like to think I’m at an alright spot with my build. Also, off topic I love how your character is designed, I see this character a lot for your videos. Is it your main or just one you created as a “face” for your channel?
I genuinely thought you were suicidal until you changed your name lol. Just kidding. Lucky plays this character on live streams all the time so it must be his main
@@areadhead Also he mentioned before that he loves necromancer class and his main is necro in an earlier video.
@@areadhead see THAT right there is why I finally got fed up. It was an inside joke with a group of friends and because of nosy people on the damn internet I’ve had to ruin the joke and make it public. SMH
@@PinkWytchBytch Sorry. I only said because I noticed you changed it
@@areadhead it’s not your fault. It’s just been brought up so many times by so many different random people that it borders on harassment
You just made me feel really good about myself at cp400 and hitting 57k haha thank you!
Nice work!
"I can see it in your eyes" but I can't see it in yours O_O
Hello. Thank you for the video.
Is this your main character? Advise build on pve stamina necromancer. I'm currently playing on your necromancer solo build. I would like to be effective in group content as well.
Just remove ropo and put grundwolf on shoulder, done!
me, at 900cp hitting 63k: [pikachu face]
Don't worry, you're hitting much more than a large majority of players. Unless you want to be part of an elite guild or you are aiming for leaderboards, 63k is more than enough!
Same lol. Hitting inconsistently between 63-67 on the trial dummy but now that I know about the trial dummy with buffs and everything I feel like I'll be much more able to work on it.
Before I was just parsing on the 6mil dummy with no buffs or anything and struggling to break 35k wondering how on earth people do 90k+ but now it at least seems possible to get there, understanding that the 90k is with that dummy specifically
@@Pieru555 thank you for the kind words! i'm not looking to hit ridiculously high numbers but i do still wanna improve more. it would be nice to get the vet achievements in trials.
@@AwkwardCheesecake oh yeah i feel you. the cp change shocked me since my parse drastically lowered and it took several tries for it to come close to what it used to be again.
it is nice to know that there's always room for yourself to improve though
@@bannahnah5387 I'm at cp1200+ and hit like the wettest noodles ever 🤣🥲
Stamplar here. I have rally in backbar and Camo Hunter in front, which means I always have major sav and brut. What kind of buff potion should I use instead? Or should I switch out those skills and use the potion?
You could run heroism pots to generate ultimate. Or drop rally and use weapon power pots.
Usually if you can afford the potions its better to switch skills and get those buffs from potions, especially when you need more damage. But those can be expensive so you can keep those skills for casual stuff.
You don't need camo hunter since the stamplar jab morph give major savagery. Since it's your spam it's gonna be up all the time
I don't generally use light attacks but this is interesting as I had no idea...........lol.
What is a good set of parse gear for a mag templar?
Whatever you normally wear.
right now magplar parse sets would be zaans, mother's sorrow, siroria with maestrom inferno on back bar :)
If you’re playing on console don’t get frustrated that you aren’t hitting 100k. I don’t know what it is about console but it seems like you just can’t parse as high as PC. Maybe it’s lag idk. Also remember that you don’t have to hit 100k to do the hardest stuff in the game. Obviously it will be much easier if you’re melting everything but it’s absolutely not a requirement to do the hard stuff.
It's because of all the cheats, oops, I meant to say add-ons that they have on PC. On PC they can run dynamic rotations in order to maximize uptimes on DoTs much easier because of those cheats, dang it, I meant add-ons. On consoles it's much more difficult to keep good uptimes on DoTs and many players run a static rotation instead of a dynamic one because of this. A static rotation in just about all cases is going to produce a lower total DPS parse.
Yeah console is prob laggier too. My button presses don’t even register sometimes.
@@abcdef-ee5rp Lol I've played pc and console. Though I prefer pc gaming cause it's smoother with more options and control, lately I've stuck with console because it has the very nice bonus that you can play from anywhere and not just be stuck at a desk. So maybe that makes me a lazy and cozy gamer. 😅
@@hellstrike5366 Addons have always been an important piece on MMO lmao, call it what you want but I think you are frustated for not getting access to those "cheats"
@@Elvira27 I do the same with my laptop.
Thanks for the tips part timer 😅❤️
Great video.
What motif is your bow? It looks sick
Its the new stonekeeper arms pack in the crown store
I’m using hundings right now. What is a better parse set? I don’t have any relequins armor yet.
anything will be better than hundings almost, its a great starter set but briar, new moon acolyte, leviathan, tzogvin and rele will all be better :)
Do you use culossus on your stamcro as your main ult? Mines stuck at 77k but I think its because im an Imperial or because I run rele and deadly lol
I use colossus in content, but flawless dawnbreaker while parsing because the dummy already has major vuln :)
@@LuckyGhost Thank you! :)
Does anybody know approximately what the difference in parse is from whacking on the Iron Atronach vs. a Bone Goliath target dummy? I know the Iron Atronach has a bunch of buffs, debuffs and synergy opportunities that the other dummies don't have, but at the moment I only have access to the Bone Goliath and I don't really want to join another guild just to whack on their target dummy for a bit.
Obviously it will vary by class, gear, etc but if I'm doing 27k on the Bone Goliath around what might I be able to expect on an Iron Atronach parse?
hard to say, probably over 40k no problem. join some random trial guilds and use their dummies :) you can be in 5, its not marriage and you can leave any time!
what I want to know is if alcast's builds are good. cause I base most of my class builds off of what he suggests and occasionally I make a few minor tweaks so the build is to my liking. on my stamina nightblade dps for example I run his second setup since I can't get my hands on trials gear because no one will take me through trials.
so for my night blade, for jewelry I have the briar heart set with the bloodthirsty trait and weapon damage enchant. for my weapons I have dual wield briar heart daggers one with a flame enchant with the charged trait and the other with a poison damage enchant with the nirnhoned trait.
for armor I have the hundings rage set except for head and shoulders. all of which have the divine trait with a stamina enchant. and since I didn't know what monster set to use I looked it up and alot of people recommended the kra'gh set. same traits and enchant as the hunding's rage set. my mundus stone is the thief. as for my back up weapon it's just a bow, I need to get the thunderous volley bow but haven't been lucky enough to get it yet so for now I just settled with the longclaw's bow.
as for the abilities I use, on my front bar i use surprise attack, relentless focus, killer's blade, deadly cloak, and dark shade. ultimate on this bar is flawless dawnbreaker, mainly just for the slayer passive and banish the wicked passive.
backbar is endless hail, twisting path, barbed trap, leeching strikes, and resolving vigor, ultimate for this bar is incapacitating strike and I have all passives for each of the associated skill lines except for siphoning (missing magicka flood and soul siphoner), fighter's guild (only bounty hunter I'm missing. cause I don't want to go to cyrodiil period.) and the assault skill line. cause those aren't needed since I'm mainly a pve player and the passives in the assault tree don't benefit me outside of pvp
haven't really used potions other than crown potions or stamina restore potions. food I use is kwama egg omelets cause a friend crafted a bunch for me. I would think tho despite some of those minor set backs I would still deal good dps but the highest I've ever gotten is around 15k on one of the 3 million health target dummies. specifically the khajiit skeleton dummy. so can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
haha these intros need to be nominated for an oscar
Couldn’t agree more always make me smile and have a giggle yeah
Great upload bro, someone had to tell them... Ty
Is 50k at around 400cp doing okay? I have tried several parses and cannot seem to push it much higher than that. I know my weaving could be a bit better but I am on xbox so it is sometimes hard to tell what my light attacks per second are at.
Thats great I always tell people to aim for 10k dmg per 100cp (most will cap out around 90 to 100k dps)
Lucky you GOT me to come back and thank you so so much .... but i need to know if it would be better to get the pre order for Blackwood or Clockwork DLC... Please Lucky i need help
clockwork city vou can buy with gold ingame, blackwood only with $
@@willysdutra7329 just struggling to farm gold i am not part of a guild i just restarted the game 😅 i was thinking about that tho
Light attack weaving, master it, and your rotation, perfect it.
i have all the best gear, high cp, and only hit 50k. i think my biggest thing holding me back is im not using the perfect rotation but more something thats comfortable with my playstyle
Wait you had someone teach you? Hell I'm learning on the go
I learn from watching Lucky! KEKW
Me too. No one taught me 💩.
Do you think master architect could compete with siroria
First person to explain how magicka pool is related to damage
I've spent a total accumulated 9 days total on my magicka necro and I still dont know what im doing on it. I mythiced my entire mother of sorrows gear and 2 rings, leads me to only have about 50% spell crit.
Should I be hunting down Medusa light armor from Arx corinum? I've been running it for the inferno staffs.
Medusa doesn't drop light armor, it's a heavy armor set which is why mag dds run jewelry/weapons.
@@adamantineshining oh thanks for that ! ok now it makes sense why no one suggest me the armor since it didnt exist for my build playstyle anyways
How do I find these parse dummies? thanks so much for all the great vids!!
you can use the one in a friends or guilds house, or buy them in the cash shop from the menu in your house (f5)
@@LuckyGhost ahh thanks had no idea
I've been playing for about 2 years now (only cp600 though) and I just can't get used to do a rotation, I find it either boring or hard or both
Hai what’s your bow called the motif and your hood ?
I just want to know why as a mage am i using destroy staffs instead of dual wield wich gives more damage
Commenting because comments are good for the TH-cam algorithm
I commend your comment as I comment regarding your comment.
I've been watching your videos to help recap since rejoining the game. Just subbed too, I didn't notice it much in other videos I don't think, but the fade ins/outs of your voice mid sentence/section are kinda jarring here. Still, great content! Keep it up!
I was wearing Hundings and Night Mother's also lol
