For this outfit setup, I’m using the Psijic Order armour style combined with the Ancient Orc on the back bar to create a mystical tempest style.
The Psijic Order style can be obtained in Summerset by doing various activities such as, Abyssal Geysers, World Bosses, Abyssal Pools, Treasure Chests, and Delve Bosses in Summerset or Artaeum
The Ancient Orc complements the outfit perfectly thanks to its massive carved design and ancient Orcish appearance. This style can be acquired by defeating delve bosses in Wrothgar.
Race, Attributes, Mundus.
Choosing the right race, attribute distribution, and Mundus Stone can make a huge difference in the overall performance and feel of your Sorcerer Psijic Order build in The Elder Scrolls Online. In this section, you’ll find the best options to maximize your lightning damage, sustain, survivability, and overall efficiency while playing solo overland content.
The race section explains which races work best for a Psijic Order Magicka Sorcerer build and why certain racial passives synergize so well with Magicka-based gameplay.
You’ll also find recommended attribute allocation to ensure your build has the right balance of Magicka, Health, and survivability. Proper attribute setup is especially important for newer players, as it helps make combat feel smoother and more forgiving while still maintaining strong damage output against enemies throughout Tamriel.
The Mundus Stone section covers the best Mundus choices for boosting your damage, critical chance, sustain, or survivability depending on your preferences and available gear. These recommendations are designed specifically for beginner-friendly PvE gameplay, making it easier to complete quests, delves, public dungeons, world bosses, and other overland activities comfortably.

High Elf or Dark Elf would suit this build best but you can choose whichever race you see fit.
Attributes
For the attributes, I put 64 points into Magicka.
Mundus Stone
For the Mundus we have the Mage for extra Magicka.
