The maintenance is complete, and the PTS is now available.

Scaled Way of Air + Sentry now possible, anti-ambush role set combo

I went to Craglorn and farmed some Way of Air pieces to test. I quickly found a helmet, shoulders, chest, 2 swords and a mace. The mace and one sword were sharpened. The head was impenetrable. Getting an impen set for PvP thus doesn't seem too difficult. I also got a well-fitted piece which is apropos since it's 5 set bonus is increasing weapon damage. Despite what the tooltip says in the image performing a dodge roll increases this dunmer stam DK's weapon damage by about 425.

I happen to have combined Way of Air with the Morihaus set which is what this character normally wears for PvP breaking up zergballs. As there are many "proc on dodge roll" sets now, Way of Air can nicely fit into that playstyle.

Perhaps more importantly since you can now purchase the PvP Sentry set at the town vendor in Cyrodiil it appears that you can add these two sets which increase the radius in which you can detect those in stealth and the bonuses appear to stack.


Sentry set:
(2 items) Adds 967 Max Stamina
(3 items) Adds 129 Weapon Damage
(4 items) Adds 967 Weapon Critical
(5 items) Damage dealt to Sneaking targets increased by 20%. Stealth detection radius increased by 50%

You can even mix and match weapons, jewelry and armor pieces and, with a dual wield build, have room left over for an Undaunted set.

This would make a pretty good anti-ambush combination in PvP. I've long used Sentry situationally and it's incredibly usefuly when on, well, sentry duty.

    I just want to mention the Sentry set increases detection radius by 50% not 20%.

    Gracias. I copy/pasted it from uesp instead of actually looking at my nice gold set in-game.

    BTW, the Khajiit/Bosmer passive seems to override both sets.

    How do you mean? Do they literally ignore the Set bonuses, but keep their own bonus?
