Primary Attributes For DPS Builds
Before we dive into discussing the best Champion Points for DPS Builds in The Elder Scrolls Online, let’s briefly discuss what stats tend to work best. In ESO, the main focus of a DPS build is obviously to put out as much damage as possible. However, if you want to push yourself further into more difficult content including Veteran Trials, Dungeons and Arenas then adding more sustain and survivability will be key, and Champion Points can help amplify this greatly. For DPS Builds, a focus on Critical Chance, Critical Damage, Penetration, Weapon and Spell Damage and Maximum Stamina or Magicka is needed with some additional focus on sustain and survivability.

The Final Word
Keep in mind that Champion Points are a flexible system, so you need to review your own Skills to make sure the Champion Points listed compliment your build completely. For example, if you have no Single Target damage abilities you would not slot Deadly Aim. In general however, the Champion points listed above will work well with a variety of DPS Builds.
