Not worth it

Not worth it if that shield is affected by battle spirit.

I agree, but if it is not affected I think having a 12k shield coming out of stealth on my nb is better than an extra set bonus

Its mildly anoying in 1v1 / me vs your group situations. Barely even noticed in group vs group pvp

A niche set that fail's because of poor implementation. The hunt leader is another good example of this. There's no point really trying to utilize these set's when you could have have flat damage increase's.

Para Bellum - Shield is to weak or Cooldown is to long.

Hunt Leader - Incoming stat's to weak and Cooldown also to long. (This set is even worse because nb shades and sorc pet's do not scale off stamina so there damage is just terrible.


Both sets need buff's. However there is hardly any pts testing. Shield breaker got a huge buff and is now a set people hate with a passion. However i think it's a good addition to create diversity. This is what we need. Really good set's with hard mechanic's. Like engine guardian, you need to learn to bash that set.

What buff did shieldbreaker get?

@Alcast

Shield Breaker used to be only 1k damage in pts. They bumped it to what it is now, 2.1k.

@cp5

I could name hundred's of set's that could use buff's. So many unique playstyle's could be made with these set's, however damage is all the rage atm.

Set's i want v16:

Archer's Mind
Morang Tong
Shadowwalker
Nightshade
Night mothers embrace
Quick Serpent (Vicious as well)
Savior's Hide
Shrouded Armour (My favorite set in the game)
Stygian
Sunderflame
Undaunted Set's (not monster helmet's.)
Viper's Sting

All these set's are medium. However none of these come in v16. Are they worthless now? When veteran level's are removed will they still have a place in the game?

(Keep in mind im a Medium Armour user, i'm unaware of any light/heavy set's people wish were v16)

There are actually plenty of crafted set's i would list as well that i would gladly use, if only the 5 piece was a little modified. One example is Vampire's Kiss. This set only grant's health on kill's. Why not grant health over time after you feed on someone? Then you could go up to people in pvp, feed on them and have a great incoming heal to start the fight. Little thing's that would make the game so much fun.



So many idea's on these forum's get out right ignored. Zos is to busy making content and hasn't realized half of the content that's out is broken or un-balanced.

All the dramatic mechanic change's such as roll dodge penalty and no stamina return while blocking are huge mechanic's that were not even the leading issue's. Did anyone ever point at Engine Guardian and go? Jeeez this thing is proc'ing way to much...this one set i believe was the leading cause to these nerf's.... and in my opinion ruined stamina classes. You used to be able to run almost no healing and just time your roll's and blocks and win fight's. Now it's just healing. Don't even bother blocking either.

Kinda went on a rant there... this game just keep's narrowing it's view and i have yet to see any positive growth since console release. Just keep layering those broken patches Zos...

Believe me, I'd just give them to you (as opposed to sell them) just so someone can at least be happy from the frustration I go through with Maelstrom.
