Best endgame gear for stamina nb dps?

Feisty_Khajiit128

I am getting close to endgame, any ideas on good gear?

Gruntz_II

5 x hunding's rage
4 x shield breaker
3 x agility jewelry
DW/2H or DW/Bow


I use infused on helm, legs, chest. Divines for the rest. Stamina enchants. I'm a glass cannon but I enjoy the stacking weapon damage play style, it has its ups and downs. Also, I can switch out one of the hunding's for a 5th shield breaker for pvp situations if need be.

Hunding morukulin 5/3-4 or hunding night mother 5/3-4 is popular with three piece agility set jewelry with at least on weapon damage if not all three and robust traits if you rich and healthy if you are cheap. All divines if you are brave all medium all Inpen if you are smart. Duel wiel or sword an board and two hander will need rally and work for vigor and caltrops. Thief or serpent for Mundus. All attributes points into stamina. Have at least 20 to 23 k health. More than 25 k health is likely to reduce your damage.

I recently completed an awesome combo:

5 Hundings
5 Briarheart
2 Bloodspawn

The Briarheart can take a long time to acquire all of the jewelry from the daily quests though..

I probably should have put this in my first post, but I will only be doing pve with this gear

5 Hundings, 3 sentry, 3 agility should get u by pretty well if u are using bow/2h

I've been playing around with several set ups. I personally have had the most success with:

7/7 Medium w/Divines
2x Precise Daggers
1x Precise Maelstrom Bow
5x Twice Born Star (Shadow & Thief)
3x Night Mother's Gaze (on DW bar)
1x Molag Kena
3x Agility

5x medium +1+1 all divines with shadow mundus

5x hunding
3x night mother on dual
1x kena

1x dagger precise
1x mace/sword sharpened

1x 2h sword buff bar

Ok, so far I am thinking about a few different sets.
1. 5p hundings, 3p night mothers, 1p kena
2. 5p hundings, 4p morkuldin/shield breaker
3. 5p hundings, 5p briarheart, 1p kena, 1p bloodspawn
4. (Solo) 2p engine guardian, 5p hundings, 5p briarheart

5twice born, 4 sheer venom 3agility.

You have to DW both bars but I like it

I will never have vet Malestrom weapons because I will never go back in there so my new favorite setup and by no means best in slot setup is;

For PVE;

5 Hundings
5 Briarheart
1 Kena

2 Daggers Precise
1 Maul Precise (the akavari Mosul is just sic)

Shadow mundus stone

PVP

5 Powerfully Assault
2 Engine Guardian
Or
1 Kena 1 Bloodspawn

2 Agility swords sharpened
1 Endurance Maul sharpened

1 Agility neck
2 Endurance

I prefer assault to shield breaker because shield breaker is plus adavntage against sorcs assault helps the group always.

All impen on PVP gear
Warrior mundus stone

It's definitely not the highest stat setup but it's the one that I enjoy the most.

I always run the Orsinium blue food plus health plus stam regen only because I fit have perfect roe or I would run plus health plus all regen food

Feisty_Khajiit128

Should I run max stam food or stam regen? I am having trouble with sustain.

on pve max health with max stam food, try to keep nerfed siphoning attcks...so f***** skill but still very needed if you have problem with regen

on pvp go with stamina regen :P

ryanborror

Hundings and night mothers with agility will yield best results

Essence thief all divines, 2neirneth,3agility maelstrom weps

5 Hundings 4 Morkuldin (same 4pce as Shieldbreaker but easier to acquire in trait) 3 agility, 2wpn dmg 1 regen glyph
infused on big pieces divines/impen on small

Just doing some gear digging (recently back to the game) - these answers still viable? Things changed recently?

I'm running 5 hunding's, 5 marksman's, 1 kena and one bloodspawn. My wood elf has 2.4k regen (literally can't get it lower without the new monster shoulder lol) and I think 2700 weap dmg unprocced. Crit sits above 70% All three accessories are weapon damage enchant, only gold gear is my swords. I also use master's bow on my backbar.

So... Hunding's appears in like 90% of suggestions for a stamina build. Some diversity would be nice, ZOS.

Hunding's Rage is ironically the weakest of endgame stamina DPS sets. Night Mother's Gaze, Twice Born Star, Roar of Alkosh, Sunderflame, Viper's Sting, Morag Tong, Red Mountain and obviously Vicious Ophidian (the best arguably) are all better. Even Flanking Strategist is better if you have a good tank. There are few more that can be added to the list.

That's not ZoS fault . It's people fault that they dont know diversity that is currently in the game.

I agree with you guys completely: there are certainly better sets out there besides the classic crafted sets. But for me, there is a problem with some of the good sets e.g. Sunderflame. The problem is that it's impossible to combine the following 3 'musts':

1) wear a Sunderflame set, so a dropped set that only exists as medium armor
2) wear a good monster set
3) wear 1 heavy chest and 1 light belt for the undaunted passive bonus (and the rest medium armor)

The only solution would be to have my monster set consist of a light armor piece and a heavy armor piece (heavy helmet and light shoulders), but we all know that's not optimal, either.

Any thoughts about how to handle it if one wants to use e.g. a Sunderflame set? Would you guys not use either a monster set (some are really good, though, aren't they?) or would you guys not use a mix of armor types for the undaunted bonus (6% is too good not to take, right)? Or would you go for the makeshift solution of making your monster set light & heavy?

Well, HR and NMG are not so far apart, TBS only shines in a trial with coordinated buffs/debuffs (war horn, etc) and the other require some serious grinding to get a complete set in perfect traits. So it's understandable if people are still using this set as a base for their build, esp. considering the cost required updating sets.

Considering that the OP specifically asked for "best", this is the only answer lol

It is a conundrum. If he could get that gear he'd not need to ask the original question of gear.

What he likely needs is a progression of gear as he';s working towards the Best in Slot gear. Many flavors of that has been listed above of course.
