Unkillable Stamina Warden ONE BAR Solo PVE Build – SENTINEL - Hack the Minotaur (2024)

Category:Best Warden Builds, Solo Builds, One Bar Builds

The SENTINEL Build is an insanely strong solo build for The Elder Scrolls Online, focused on powerful damage mitigation skills and passive self-healing! This build is ideal for soloing World Bosses, Normal and even Veteran Dungeons plus arenas like Infinite Archive. This build also makes use of ESO’s new Scribing system.

Primary Sets

The recommended items sets for the SENTINEL Stamina Warden build focus on Critical Chance and Critical Damage, letting us deal a surprising amount of damage for a heavy armor build focused on survival!

First, the Order’s Wrath set is fantastic for soloing in ESO as it gives a combination of both Critical Chance and Damage and easily crafted or purchased on guild traders.

Next, the Leviathan set provides even more Critical Chance plus Max Stamina which will help support our overall resource pool.

The Oakensoul Ring will be an incredibly important part of running this build more effectively as it provides many of the buffs we would miss otherwise when limited to just one skill bar, including our Major buffs for Damage, Critical Chance and Armor.

Finally, the Slimecraw Monster Set just amplifies the damage this build can produce even more without worrying about buffs.

Alternate Sets

Other damage-focused sets such as Briarheart or Hunding’s Rage will do well on this build. If you are playing with a group you can also try the new set Highland Sentinel which boasts some of the highest Critical Chance in the game but limits your mobility while doing so, which means you will need a tank or other player to help you group up enemies.

Skills Discussion & Rotation

Torchbearer Explanation

Torchbearer is a new Fighters Guild Skill that is only available through Scribing. With the right Scripts, this ability is absolutely amazing for Solo builds, combining an AOE damage channel (great for sustain) with damage reduction (30 percent!) and other affixes like Minor Resolve. Here are the Scripts I recommend:

• Focus Script: Disease, Physical or Fire Damage.
• Signature Script: Gladiator’s Tenacity – 30% Damage Reduction during channel.
• Affix Script: Minor Resolve – increases Physical and Spell Resistance by 2794.

Buffs

Maintain your Bull Netch at all times for extra damage. Use Armor Potions for more difficult content to maximize resistances, otherwise you can use basic Stamina or Magicka potions as needed.

Combat Tips

Fire off Deep Fissure first to debuff enemy armor, then follow this up with Growing Swarm and Arctic Blast to apply some additional damage over time. Then simply spam Torchbearer to deal AOE damage while also reducing the damage you take! Cast Arctic Blast again for a burst heal if needed.
