Since non set armor becomes near USELESS later in the game. How about a armor skill line, like heavy light med, that makes it not so useless. Like giving % bonuses to your stats. Giving you high return from enchants, or even a final passive like, for each non set piece you have on, you get 5 pts to health magica and stamina. Would help balance out the difference and have the armor be used.

OR make all light heavy med, passives, do 3x-4x there base effect for the pieces of armor that don't have a set bonus. So you actually have to give up something to have a cool set effect / bonus.

Circuitous brought this up in a pts thread and I felt the need to post it here and see what the response would be like. I think this is perfect.

    How about crafting your armor. Or paying or trading with another crafter. Or paying or trading or collecting dropped sets. Or glyphing it.

    If you want a bonus for not having a set, there's an undaunted skill like for that.
    Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
    Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
    Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
    Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.
    ***
    Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.
    House of Dibella - If you have ever seen or read "Memoirs of a Geisha" that's just the beginning...
    Nibenay Valley Chapterhouse - Where now stands only desolate ground and a dolmen there once was a thriving community supporting one of the major chapterhouses of the Order Draconis

    Yea this idea while in good spirits, is ultimately unnecessary.

    There are plenty of opportunities available to acquire set bonus gear. Be it through crafting it yourself, having someone craft it for you, or paying someone to craft it for you.

    It is unnecessary to add this, or change anything. HOWEVER it was also UNNECESSARY to add the champion and justice systems.
    It makes the game more balanced, more fun, and have more depth.

    People complain wow is easy, and even its gear / itemization system has more depth.
    The depth of the combat is a 10/10, while the gear and itemization in eso, is a 2/10. You have no need to actually weigh if a set bonus, or higher stat bonuses from the item, is better.
    I DONT WANT WOW. However I do want some kind of depth added so you actually have to DECIDE and WEIGH options. So anything you get, could be worth something to someone.
