Best gear for stamina DPS without VO

We all know VO is BiS. Lacking VO, what would the next best thing be? Right now I have 5 medium hundings and 2 leki axes as the basis for my build (all gold), so I'm probably not going to change that until I get vMA weapons. I've tried TBS, but am not in end game raid guilds and I felt this underperformed in vMA compared to hundings on my stamDK.

What should I fill in the rest of my build with? 3 agility+another leki+1 Molag kena? 5 red mountain? 5 vipers? One of the new sets coming with 1T?

    I ran normal trials dozens of times and ended up with zero VO drops.

    Looked around and found a dedicated trials guild, DPS tested, and was able to get in on some vet hel ra runs.

    Within 4-5 runs I had an entire set (gold jewelry and 2 divines body pieces) since the drop rates are far superior, coupled with the ability to trade with your group members now.

    If you don't want to do that I think 5 NMG, 2 Lekis, 3 robust Agility jewelry, and 2 Velidreth all divines with the Thief is the way to go.

    Vipers I think, but, VO is still king for regen etc. in vMA. Took forever to get I hear you on that, but, so glad I ran nSO 50+ times to get it...

    This is what I would do too. The Minor Slayer buff is pretty good, so if you have a 3pc jewelry of something with Minor Slayer, it might be worth looking into as an alternative to agility.

    Pretty sure 3x agility equates to around 5% more damage done, equalling the buff of VO. So VO isn't the be all, end all of stam, except for vma where it shines amazingly.

    Great post here about this-https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/283191/willpower-agility-vs-minor-slayer-3p-jewelry-sets/p1

    I prefer agility to VO 3 piece because agility works everywhere and helps vigor and rally.
