I think BiS gear is

5xFootmen (3x jewels + 2 Armor pieces) - http://elderscrollsonline.wiki.fextralife.com/Footman's+Fortune+Set
5xSeducers(if you are using lots of Magicka abilities Green Dragon Blood + Obsidian Shield + Hardened Armor + Ranged Taunt) - http://elderscrollsonline.wiki.fextralife.com/Armor+of+the+Seducer+Set
5xHisk Barks(if you are not using that much magicka) - http://elderscrollsonline.wiki.fextralife.com/Hist+Bark+Set
2xDeath Wind - http://elderscrollsonline.wiki.fextralife.com/Death's+Wind+Set

1. Using 5H 2M (or 5H 2L) works best with sword n board since u get block cost reduction bonus. build focusing on health and health regen. Usually magicka based, but can do stamina.
2. Using 5M 2H (or 5M 2L) you need to be able to actively roll/dodge effectively. So this opens up your weapon selection and increased you DPS, but a little trickier to pull as you're a bit more squishy. You need to be stamina based to effectively roll/dodge.
3. You want ALL passives out of ALL skill lines you can get. Classes, weapons, armors, all of it. Go farm skyshard if you need more

That's all I can think for now.
