Amberplasm Set

psychotic13

Can anyone give me any info on this set?

The bonuses are:
(2 items) Adds 967 Max Magicka
(3 items) Adds 688 Spell Critical
(4 items) Adds 129 Spell Damage
(5 items) Adds 300 Stamina Recovery
(5 items) Adds 300 Magicka Recovery

This looks awesome, 300 stamina and Magicka recovery for the 5th piece? A bonus to recovery normally gives 129 if I'm not mistaken, this is the equievent to over 4 bonuses as 1!?

Most 5 item bonuses are unique or stronger than typical set bonuses

Shadesofkin

Yep, planning to farm it for a Maelstrom build idea I had.

Dracane

It's definately a good set. I see Sorcerers and Nightblades using it.
It's a decent deal between damage and sustain.

Any info on how to require it?

Totally OP. Imagine hundings rage giving 300 weap dmg and 300 stam recovery as 5 set. Every stam build would use it

Wish they would make more sets with more than 5 effects

I'd totally use a 200 wep dmg 200 stam recovery version of a hundings not to be to op

Very strong in PvP but only drops BoP in a dungeon of the last small and full PvE DLC that costs 12€... enjoy the p2w boys

Vaoh

Not many players noticed this set as being a strong 5-piece to use.

For a solo PvPer on a Magicka build, this is a very powerful set. I'll be grinding this out for sure.

Only good for PvP, but doesn't drop in Impen.

Meh.

Not valid comparison. Not even close.

AP gives stamina and magica recovrry not two bonuses that feed each other like wpn dmg and stam rec.

Things like this have been happening for a while. Was it alchemist in tg that had a 4pc bonus of wpn dmg and spell dmg... to cover either type of character?

Mages who are primary magica but use lotsa stam for dodge or break will see this as good set but the sta reg isnt by any means a game changer.

Which dungeon does it drop from, plan on farming it come release, on console so no pts.

Kas

also great that 4th and 5th bonus are damage/reg. this means, it is always viable (always annoying that you lose stats when swapping items of a set with such a bonus, even if you have it complete on both slots) with weapons and perfect if you have 1 or 2 weapons on both bars. further, with jewelry and weapons it's pretty much available for all builds in h/m/l armor (though probably much better for magicka bulds in h or l, ofc) AND it's not much of a problem if armor pieces don't drop in impen. Of course, it's still gonna be a huge pain to farm jewelry and weapons

really the most appealing set in my opinion (though most probably only for pvp), maybe in addition to necropotence which sounds so strong that i can see it used by sorcs with only one pet and magicka nbs that keep their shadow image up. not sure aout the uptime you can have on the croco set. maybe even others can use it in pve.

I've seen several people mention necropotence, has this now been upgraded to CP160? Are the bonuses still the same?

It is back at max level (CP160) and the 5pc Bonus has been changed from a 10% Max Magicka bonus to a 4000 Max Magicka Bonus.

It's more like for PVE sustain builds,

Can be good for VMSA.

no...why would you need that much recovery in vMSA?
As what most people said...looks good for pvp, but i don't see myself using this in pve.

Lord_Eomer

Yea u need recovery for more damage shields, healing..

You can not deny it's not good for VMSA..

Sure, you can use it. You can use everything in there if you want to. But it's better to use a dps-centric set and maybe enchant one or two jewelry pieces with regen. As i said...you don't need that much recovery, i din't say you don't need recovery at all.

Darlon

Glad that we're getting more variation, however, can't see myself using this set in PvE...

Agree, I think this will be in high demand for PvP, the sustain it will give is great.

Can we get a stamina equivalent with 600 stam recovery? 300 for skills and 300 for dodging, blocking and breaking free.

No need to get your knickers in a twist. Even if it does come out, expect to grind it for about a year and when u finally have it, gear cap will increase. GG

This is so strong i'd really like to run it but i don't like pve, i don't like rng, i don't like BOP sets and this is 100% going to get nerfed.

This is basically going to be 100% needed in pvp for any mag build? Why wouldn't you? 2/3/4 piece if full damage then the 5th piece gives more than 2x the standard magicka regen on gear and gives 300 stamina? That 300 stamina would pretty much make it very difficult to run mag builds out of stamina.
