ESO PVP Builds

Update 46 has launched on the live servers! New builds for subclassing need to be tested before I can update the site. This will take 2-3 weeks so that a decent build will be posted, and in case some early patch changes occur. Visit my Patreon to see the work in progress on the new builds!

The website has been updated with subclassing – and Whitestrake’s Mayhem is live! If you find any irregularities in the builds, please let us know.
