Snape2255✭✭✭I heard off someone that the pieces are split between different map events. For example; body pieces around a map, weapons in delves, and jewellery off of dolmens. I'm not sure how legit that info is, but you could test out a few dolmens and see what your luck drops?
Infos legit : it's the patch note one
Sweet! I haven't taken my time to read every nitty, gritty detail of the patch notes yet
Thanks for confirming! The name is Snape. Full time Banana fighting for his Queen and Country. Favourite hobby; killing the cowardly Covenant and Pact infidels threat.
Predominantly PVP based player running various characters. Mostly Magicka Templar, Magicka Sorcerer and Stamina Templar.

I actually wonder how well it will interact with the 1-hand & shield ultimate since that automatically blocks for you for 6s. Could be hilarious for a NB bomb build as well and just shadow image afterwards.0 -

Unless the shadow image can be drawn to the blocker as well
Has that already been tested ?

Depends on build rly, alot of stuff dealing poison or disease dmg wont be affected by automaton, neither of the sets will affect healing. Spriggan will shine more vs oponents with 15k+ or 20k+ armor. Just my 2 scents.

Infernal Guardian
This one seems really good for magicka sorcs.
And Dks
I tested infernal guardian.
The uptime and damage seems alright.
But the functionality is very bad. Any target that just moves a bit, will not get hit by it. The projectiles aims in the moment where it procs from your body and it has a very long traveling time. So it misses like 80% of the time. DEFINATELY useless in pvp, in pve maybe okay vs enemies that stand in 1 place.
I also find the way it works very bad. It should target the closest target, not the one that's far away.
You haven't tested enough, Infernal guardian was easily top 3 dps % on most of my duels. Each bolt can crit for 4.5k - 5k dmge and is quite hard to dodge it for melee attackrs.
Don't know what immobile ducks you were fighting then
As long as a targets just slowly moves, it will completely avoid all fireballs.
As I said, it aims as soon as it shoots from your body and the traveling time is long. That's at least 1 second difference and a pvp player will definately not be in the same spot as before. It basically cannot hit.
I found it stupid to use in pve as well. If it would at least adjust its direction as long as it flies.....
Necroing a bit, but you are underestimating the the proc chance of the set. On stamina enemies the set will hit no matter what, they got to close the gap making it impossible for them to avoid the mortars. And even agaisnt range chars the set procs so much that eventually you get hit by them.
The set is fantastic on 1v1s the amount of preassure it sustains it's unrivalled.Edited by SanTii.92 on September 9, 2016 7:02PMWhen the snows fall and the white winds blow,

As every other ultimate, the restro one scale on the highest resource. And yes, mending, vitality and malubeth should boost this ultimate's heal.

The Vanilla Sets always had a weird kind of balance built in that me think the guy designing them and keeping an eye on the bigger picture was a very chaotic, but very good at his job & clever. I.e.: Most very powerful 5piece bonuses had some kind of offset due to armor type or not so desirable 2-4piece bonuses. It kinda worked and imo that philosophy started dieing slowly after the intro of craglorn. Did ZOS replace someone during that time?
I don`t get that "clever vibe" with those streamlined sets that are thrown at us nowadays. Quantity over quality is all I can see. Almost all are linear, all built for certain max min/max purpose, which will make the next patch so absurd balance wise, it will not be fun at all.
Dear ZOS, those sets are mostly bland and not well thought out from a balance point of view and will lead to huge amounts of afterpatch bandaids and issues. Who in your office is keeping those stats in check, while keeping the big picture in mind (the multitude of additive and multiplicative buffs, cp, battle spirit, etc.)? Is it the same person that has done it for the vanilla sets? I`m really interested to know.
Best regards
Let's be honest, most of the new sets are copy and pastes of one another. Count how many sets offer 386 weapon/spell damage with a condition (and they still messed it up for magicka). That's not variety, that's someone on a deadline who just stopped trying.
I agree that I liked some of the mixed sets but with soft caps gone that was from another time. Now the only thing ZOS cares about is power creep (new DLC has stronger items) and forcing grinds (BoP). I miss the days when variety actually meant diversity; now it just means quantity over quality.
Yeah, feels like really nasty fast food. They prolly know its unhealthy, but as long as simpler minds are pleased with lots of shiny new stuff, quick & cheap, this direction will sadly be continued nonetheless.
Well we have to admit though that even back in the day the laaaaarge majority of people used all the same sets. They use those that were straight forward in all of their bonuses.
In that regard i like what zos is doing. Yes they´re offering a lot of straight forward sets - but they´re offering them many "directions" for builds. Crit, maxresource, dmgstats.
Meanwhile they offer also some sets that let you build for special effects you can build around (Fiord, prisoner, knights errand)
The thing i don´t agree with is the strongest stamina sets: Automaton (386 weapondmg on physical), draugr hulk (all stam bonuses without requirement), and bone pirate (maxstam and stamreg with active drink) do not have a magica equivalent.
Literally the three best non special effect 5p setbonuses are stamina exclusive. That is bad design blantantly in favor of stamina @ZOS_GinaBruno @Wrobel
Draugr Hulk is pretty garbage for any non Redguard or Imperial Stam Sorc. It's not as easy to stack max stam as it is max magic, and slotting this means losing out on some actually worthwhile 5pc set bonus like Hunding's. That 300 WD gets multiplied by 148% due to Major/Minor Brutality combined with Medium Armor, Fighter's Guild, and Class passives, so it's actually more like 440 weapon damage. 440 x 10.46 = 4600 Stamina equivalent. Thow on the stamina bonus, and Hunding's gets you the equivalent over 5600 Stamina before even factoring into the equation the 6% increase to weapons critical. Stamina is the most worthless damage bonus for stam builds.
Automaton is just a cookie cutter copy of Silks of the sun and the new Sorc equivalent. And keep in mind there are no races that get bonuses to Poison, Disease or Physical damage; meanwhile the two primary magic races—Dark and High Elves—get larger bonuses to flame and shock damage respectively. Automaton is strong, but it's weaker than the magic equivalents most of the time.
Bone Pirate is interesting to me for my Hybrid DK. I need to find out if the Witches Festival recipe that gives Magic regen and max magic is effected by it. Otherwise, this is a good sustain set, but not particularly OP.
On the whole, the new sets are going to be good for build diversity and balance because the best sets are designed with Altmer Sorcs and Dunmer DKs in mind. And Infernal Guardian is much stronger than any of the monster helms as well.2 -

Weren't some/all of these 3 piece sets? Going from 3 to 5 pieces has effectively nerfed some of them into the gutter (they used to be strong, 3peice sets) and killed my excitement at seeing them return. Destructive Mage especially used to be "Daedric Damage" (unresistable?), now it's just magic damage. And requires 2 more slots. I'm sure it'll look cool, but why would anyone use this?
Give some consideration to Magicka classes, I use a two-handed staff and only have 11 set slots... slapping them up to 5 piece sets kills any diversity I could've had. I would've preferred them weaker and 3 peice sets than stronger and 5 piece sets...
RIP planned gimmick build, no fun allowed.2
