New sets questions - Automaton and Netch

HerrPulaRau

Hello,

First I want to congratulate ESO for an awesome build. Love most of the new changes, especially for giving new incentive for hunting treasures and destroying anchors.

Now... to my issue. There are many new sets in the game, including Automaton and Netch.

The 5 piece for Automaton states: "(5 items) Adds 400 Weapon Damage to your Physical Damage abilities". What I don't understand is if this effect includes dmg from bleeding, poison and disease dmg. Those 3 types of dmg are not physical, but they are affected by armor reduction and they scale from weapon dmg.

Personal note... I don't think they are affected but... can any1 confirm?

The 5 piece Netch states: "(5 items) Adds 400 Spell Damage to your Shock Damage abilities" What I don't understand is how this interact with other sets. For example "Jolting Arms Set" (there are more sets that may proc shock dmg, can't remember them by heart) the 5 part says "(5 items) When you block an attack, you have a 50% chance to charge your arms, causing your next Bash attack to deal 5805 Shock Damage as well as granting yourself 6450 Spell Resistance for 6 seconds". This IS shock damage, but is not an ability. Is it affected?

Personal note... I actually think it is affected but... can any1 confirm?

Set item bonus damage isn't affected by anything like that. Such as sun set doesn't boost Skoria damage. It will be affected by cp however so you can get an extra 25% on these values. Note on netch and all these other sets. They aren't boosted by major sorcery. For instance Julianos giving a flat 300 with major sorc gives 360 damage but doesn't suffer the extra health and gives crit instead. This will only give 400 if all pieces are gold quality.

The game is reminding me of right after launch w/o the horrific bugs. I haven't heard anyone mention that yet cause they are all busy playing, so, thought it was worth mentioning here.

I fail to understand if this feels good for you or bad for you. ). Personally I find the game more mature than then.
