there better sets then draughr, like there a set that every 10s on block you drain 4000 health from every enemy in a 10m radius.

Storm Knight's Plate Set
(2 items) Adds 1935 Spell Resistance.
(3 items) Adds 1935 Spell Resistance.
(4 items) Adds 1064 Max Health
(5 items) When you take non-physical damage, you have a 10% chance to deal 4374 Shock Damage all to all enemies within 5 meters of you every 2 seconds for 6 seconds. This effect can occur once every 6 seconds.

Thunderbug's Carpace set
(2 items) Adds 1935 Physical Resistance
(3 items) Adds 1935 Spell Resistance
(4 items) Adds 129 Spell Damage
(5 items) When you take Physical Damage, you have a 50% chance to deal 5160 Shock Damage in a 5 meter radius around you. This effect can occur once every 3 seconds.

Jolting Arms set
(2 items) Adds 1064 Max Health
(3 items) Adds 1935 Spell Resistance
(4 items) Adds 1935 Spell Resistance
(5 items) When you block an attack, you have a 50% chance to charge your arms, causing your next Bash attack to deal 5805 Shock Damage as well as granting yourself 6450 Spell Resistance for 6 seconds.

Was one of these what you were talking about?


Edit:

I found it. Its a trial set.

Defending Warrior
(2 items) Adds 1935 Spell Resistance
(3 items) Adds 1935 Physical Resistance
(4 items) Adds 1604 Maximum Health
(5 items) When you block an attack, you deal 4000 Magic Damage to all enemies within 10 meters of you and heal for 100% of the damage done. This effect can occur once every 10 seconds.



I'm honestly surprised you don't see many block builds using these sets in cryodill. They sound pretty awesome. Especially Thunderbug.

Ive been toying with an idea with the jolting arms set and power slam 1h+S morph. The power slam is charged by blocking an attack and if used with a regular bash with jolting active it could do alot of damage. Could work a LA-power bash-bash combo. Similar to a la-ransack-bash only mush stronger.......

Yep sorry but just boring play style to me

PvE: I love all of these sets and I swap around experimenting with different combinations a lot. All of them are fun.

PvP: I have yet to find a combination that works in the fast pace-skirmish style fighting of Cyridil.

If I'm recalling it right, the Draugr's Heritage Set is the only place I can find a skull-headed staff (other than those random fire staves I have on occasion stolen from found in the apothecary in Vulkel Guard).

I have such a stave - a CP 70 one back from the dawn of time. running around like a crazy person I did find some mention of it in discussions:

Draugr's Heritage Set
Zymel Hriz (storm atronarch)
- drops a staff for this set
- can be found in 4th zone of each area (Alik'r Desert, Malabal Tor, Eastmarch)

But that's from a conversation over a year old.

anyone found one recently? Any suggestions? With all the farming for skulls I would hope to have someone get lucky and be willing to sell one. Maybe.

I mean I'll look and all, but RNG doesn't always love me.

Is it just a skull-headed staff you're after or the set? Because master frost staves have skulls, too.

Also, nice necro.

Question that´s a little of topic: Anyone knows if Varen´s Legacy will buff the 5 piece bonus of Defending Warrior??

Hmmm. It might. Varen's doesn't seem to buff ground-based attacks, so it would depend on how the aoe effect was coded. For example, Deep Breath is buffed but Ash Cloud is not.

DragonStar Arena...?

The &$%@-hole of madness?

Not any time soon, unless one of my "A-team" gets it by accident (and if its vet, that will be about 5 more years).

So.. the completely unrealistic and not at all end-game-material Goblin Build.

I will say that I originally (back in the first clueless month of rolling her up years [really] ago, I pictured her with a poison-laced bow and a skull-headed staff.

I’m not up to Dragonstar (on any character) yet, so that leaves the Draugr Heritage set.

I note that there is a Healing Staff dropped by Nomeg Rine in the Frozen ruins, but I don’t know if it’s a skull staff. That would be cool. It’s intricate, but I could (eventually) change that. I did get a skull headed Staff from Zymel Hriz at dolmens in the Rift; I think it’s a lightning staff, but I’m not sure.

There’s also a Bow dropped by Longstride and Thickpelt in the Giant camp. I’d rather not do heavy Armor for her (she’s more suited to a medium or maybe a light build), so that would mean also using Jewelry….

Lastly there’s a Necklace that drops from Uggrek the Vile at Fort Greenwood.

So… in theory I could do this. Maybe.

I’m mostly just playing around, so if I was going for StamSorc, there are only a few Templar abilities that use stamina:
Puncturing Sweep, which increases Weapon Critical (so that would go on the Bow Bar)
Blinding Javelin, which knocks back, also kinda handy for the Bow Bar
Power of the Light Reduces Physical and Spell resistance, could go anywhere.
Restoring Light doesn’t have stamina abilities per se, but does have Repentance that consumes corpses and restores some of every stat.

Undaunted Trapping Webs and both its morphs are stamina based; not really sure which morph I prefer (haven’t worked with them much).
Bone Shield is stamina based, but it scales off of health, so it’s more tanky.
Expert Hunter might be interesting; put onto the Bow Bar.
Circle of Protection might be useful if being overwhelmed by a pack of Daedra, Werewolves or Undead; probably not useful as a “usual” skill, but something to work up to slot/use when needed.

She’s mostly used medium armor, and that’s fine for stamina, meaning she could use Shuffle (I love being able to remove snares).

There are a LOT of good bow abilities. I tend to look for heals, interrupts and distance. So Draining Shot, Bombard and Focused Aim all look good. Toxic Barrage is a nice looking Ultimate (never worked with it). Poison and a DoT….nummy.

Staff abilities…well this is harder for a mostly Stamina Based critter. Looks like Weakness to Elements does not actually have a cost, which is a good thing. The morph seems to depend a lot on if I want to buff magic users in my group, vs keep the duration going. Or heck, I don’t HAVE to morph it.
The destro staff Ulti is fantastic. The other ability that would be handy would be wall of elements; the potential secondary effects are kinda nice too.

TL;DR:

So tentative Goblin Build (in no particular order):

Bow Bar: Puncturing Sweep, Blinding Javelin, Expert Hunter, Draining Shot, Focused Aim and the Bow Ulti

Staff Bar: Power of the Light, Restoring Light, Trapping Webs, Circle of Protection or Shuffle, Weakness to Elements and the Destro Staff Ulti.

Heh, I'm running Thunderbug, Stormknight and Gothar on my 40k health Magplar tank in PvP. Sick. Recently I started to try to replace Stormknight with Bahra. Hard to say if it's better, but more mag helps for spamming BoL and Jabs, and it helps on making Jesusbeam almost viable.

The skull headed staves can be crafted. They are the "Draugr" style.

OMG I love you!!!!

Not that I'll ever find that, but hey, I saved up for a witches house, I can save up for that too.

I'm still gonna play with my funky/fun build ideas. I always knew that Broken Branch wouldn't be a BiS; she was always meant for joyful fun.
