ESO Tank Mundus Stone
Choosing the right Mundus Stone is essential for optimizing your tanking performance in The Elder Scrolls Online. Whether you’re holding the frontline in dungeons or absorbing massive hits in trials, your sustain and resource management play a crucial role in survival. While several Mundus options exist, not all are equally beneficial for Tanks. The right choice can significantly impact your ability to maintain block, cast crucial skills, and support your group effectively.
The Best ESO Tank Mundus Stone
The Atronach
Increased Magicka Recovery by 310
(7 Divines Gear) Increased Magicka Recovery by 507
The best Mundus Stone for Tanks in ESO is The Atronach, which provides a powerful boost to Magicka Recovery, allowing you to maintain essential skills without running out of resources.
Magicka-based abilities play a critical role in self-healing, crowd control, and sustain, especially since Stamina Recovery is halted while blocking. The Atronach helps counteract this by ensuring a steady flow of Magicka, which is crucial for Tanks who rely on Magicka-to-Stamina conversion abilities, especially Dragonknights and Sorcerers with their class abilities that convert Magicka casting skills into Stamina and all classes using the Druids Resurgence script on their Scribing skills.
While The Steed and The Lady offer situational advantages—boosting movement speed and Health Recovery or increasing resistances—The Atronach remains the best overall choice for nearly all Tanking situations. In this guide, we’ll explore why The Atronach is the top pick, when other Mundus Stones might be useful, and how to optimize your Tank build using the right Mundus Stone.

Alternative ESO Tank Mundus Stones
While The Steed and The Lady offer situational advantages, The Steed boosting movement speed and Health Recovery and The Lady increasing resistances—The Atronach remains the best overall choice for nearly all Tanking situations.
There may be niche situations for their use, The Steed for example has proven to sometimes work well in Asylum Sanctorium Hardmode for the Off Tank and for Tanks in Cloudrest. The Lady can help you reach the resistance cap in situations where it’s desperately needed, where you might take huge damage and not be at the cap or you are using a niche setup without Heavy Armor but even then it would be more advised to consider other Resistance options to reach the cap.
Sometimes you may also require a damage focussed Mundus Stone but this is usually only when you are in top tier Trial groups or using one of our niche hybrid Tank Builds such as the Accolade DK or Spellguard Arcanist.
