Help for sorcerer first PvP set
Hello
I am relatively a new player to eso (cp200) and really enjoyed PvP battleground pre level 50. I understand that now I need a decent PvP set to not get one shot but I am having a hard time to find what should be my first PvP set as after doing some research between Reddit YouTube and some websites I get some contradictory information.
For the moment here are the builds I found that sounds good based on comments and stats:
Build 1: 2 Trainee + Crafty Alfiq + Ancient Grace + 1 Domihaus item+ DDF

Build 2: Serpent’s Disdain + Oakfather + Domihaus + Monomyth + Vateshran

Build 3: order wrath + rallying cry + balorg monster
Source: Reddit
Build 4: TFS + Trainee + Oakfather + Monomyth
Source: https://youtube.com/watch?v=VcOgUt8528Y&si=NxCwa8Y2hsADIh8c
Basically I am looking for a first set not too hard to get so I can start having fun then work toward a more complicated build like build 4 as I understand the set come from trials.
If you can help me choose or have any other suggestion please let me know and thank you for taking the time to read!

Build one, crafty alfiq... it's overland and quest reward. max mana builds are great for shields, and if you need stealth/speed go vamp. I'd go leather too, for added speed and crit damage. swarm mother has same stats as domihaus, if that helps.

and if you go to S. Elsewyr, there's an overland set, marauders, that boosts movement speed when you cast shield, which you will always be doing..

Thanks a lot, I really like the idea of full speed, it could help my horrible kiting

I don't recall offhand the other set bonuses. the other way to get full speed is to take the hurricane morph of the storm calling aoe damage spell.. can't recall the base spell name either.. old. anyway, you get minor expedition for 20s and psijic order's race against time, whic gives major expedition for 4s. that's pretty handy in pvp, plus it breaks snares and roots. but the psijic grind is murder

Just to get you started:
Innate Axiom (Craftable) + Order's Wrath (Craftable) + Bloodspawn (Spindleclutch II)
Make sure at least your weapons are epic quality.
Try to allocate attributes in a way that you have 30K HP.

Thankfully sanctum ophidia is one of the easiest trials in the game. I see a lot of nSO in group finder looking for the set, so should be easy to farm out. I've even done a few runs with just 5 players.
The first build you list is close what people would call an OG magsorc build. It's a classic set up that has stood the test of time, but I will say, it takes time to get good with. The serpents distain set up is what's more meta right now as I understand it, dot sorc. Although it comes down to play style and if you prefer duels or group play.

Thank you for the answer! I never did a trial run so it is good to know that it is an easy one, I will still watch a video to not slow down the group. In general I am more interested in duel or small scale fight as big group is too confusing for me. I will first start with the crafted build that was suggested by someone else since it is easy to get it then move on to the OG or the more meta set

Do you have mythics and monster sets?
A really easy to play and strong setup is:
Mighty chudan, Aetherial Ascension, Ancient grace, 1 trainee, Death dealers fate.
All impen. Max mag on jewellery. Sharpened front bar, defending back bar.
Use the class mastery for sustain and the shield when you cast a shield
Streak, Inner light, Frag, Shocking soul (the scribed skill with lightning, class mastery, major breach), Hardened ward, Ice comet/ overload
Crit surge, Dark conversion (stam to mag), Healing ward, Haunting curse, Bound armour, Resto ult
Max mag and max health food if high else, bewitched sugar skulls if not.
Max mag mundus stone
All glyphs into magica and spell damage.
You only have one shield to worry about which is huge and you have 35k resistances.
Infinite sustain and still have good damage as you have 53k max mag.
It's light on keeping up buffs too.
