PvP-PvE Sorc Control

High armor, spell resist, croud control sorc

Bar 1 would be your main control skills. Spam Encase + Cleave to ensure you have your Null Field for every mob fight. Power Surge (extra DPS) and Lightning Form (disintegrate and extra toughness) on CD. DO NOT BE AFRAID TO USE NULL FIELD!!! you will have it up on almost every encounter.

Bar 2 is for your single target DPS. Very high consistent damage if you use Fury - Heavy Attack - Shock - Heavy rotation. FRAG ON PROC ONLY AFTER A HEAVY ATTACK!!

Bar 3 (Overload Bar) - 1. Liquid Lightning 2. Encase 3. Dark Conversion 4. Power Surge 5. Bound Armaments. High AoE damage + control with Encase - Liquid Lightning - 2x Heavy attack ticks. Dark Conversion as needed but only after an Encase.

PvP
-Bring Immovable!!

-You will be a bit weak on small scale (1 - 3 enemies) battles but very good in medium to large scale battles.

- Deppending on who you are playing with, Sword and Shield cc bar is a nice alternative to your staff bar. SnS Bar: 1. Shield Bash 2. Rune Prison 3. Encase 4. Power Surge 5. Bound armaments

- Protect friendly healers and disable enemy healers with SnS bar!!!

Sorc w1 AoE/w2 single

Max AoE - B.I.G.
-pop everything, run in, elemental ring spam low health mobs
-pop everything, run in, elemental ring once, bring on the storm

Test Single - 4-600+
-proc dependent (no way to avoid in max builds)
-balance prior to curse/ult I suggest every other curse unless you hate your healer
-force pulse/crushing shock (no dmg difference for single) does more damage than popular MF and can apply burning dot and increase it's own crit chance for a slight mana cost increase. No matter how you look at this it's worth it for sustained fights. Easily outweighing the "execute" of MF which forces you to change up your rotation as well.

The Dark Reaper (PvE&PvP)

Based on my http://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/discussion/118053/sorcerer-build-the-dark-reaper#latest build

3 parts of the Night Mother set
5 parts of the Night's Silence set
Two Daggers with the Precise Trait
Bow with the Precise Trait
tip regarding sets: Make 5 parts Night Silence and 4 parts (2 daggers 2 other armor pieces) of the night mother set, this allows you to setup hotbar 2 for a Bow without losing the set bonuses.
"This is the play style i'v used from Veteran rank 1 to Veteran Rank 8 and i have had very little problems managing it it is a solid and reliable build that even functions well in Cyrodiil against those who would laugh at us." Pre VR nerf so it's even more effective now

Orionoch's build

Shaman Tank

Attempting to bring Thrall from WoW into ESO, this build is focusing around stormcalling for aoe dmg and a lot of wards for tanking and mitigation, it has a single target tuant and 2 dash-into-battle skills and "Ball of Lighting" can be used to escape out of aoe danger zones if you are low on stam.

PS: for those that don't know Thrall was an Orc Shaman wielding lighting and using a hammer and shield.

Battlemage

Good?

Fire Storm

High DPS Crit anti spell

The perfect build for high damage especially on single targets. For defending there is CC and W2 for buffing and moving backward.

PVE explosive DPS/Mana return Healer

This is just a build i came up with from the top of my head one day when I got bored playing my VR 1 fire mage DK. The idea was to do decent single target damage, while at the same time being a decent healer with never ending mana. This will change as i get higher in levels, but this is what I am aiming for.

Lingo: EF= Endless Fury
VC= Velocious Curse
CF= Crystal Fragments
IL= Inner Light
BA= Bound Armaments
EO= Energy Overload
HS= Healing Springs
DC= Dark Conversion
RT= Restoring Twilight

The DPS is pretty fun since every thing explodes, and there's minimal downtime. Pretty tanky as well, so not much need for CC besides CF procs.

Start every fight with BA and IL on. The rotation starts with VC, then cast EF, and only use CF when it procs. After VC explodes, if target still isn't dead, recast it until they're low on health, then cast EF as your finisher. If you run out of mana, or in between VC and EF explosions, pop your ult. EO has a low ult cost, and you can even leave it on since it only drains when you do a light or heavy attack. As a bonus, it also restores mana on every light or heavy attack hit, creating a reliable mana return option while at the same time dealing massive damage.

Healing i haven't tried extensively, but you'll always want your RT out for it's magicka aura. Start every fight by casting Mutagen on your party members, and using HS when you know that serious damage will occur. Keep mutagen up at all times if possible. When you can, cast EF on low health targets to get some mana return, and if you desperately need mana, use DC. I don't like using it in combat so much, but with resto staff hots, it's more than possible to use it in combat.
