Strength of the Automaton set

Julianos

Does this set increase my posion and disease damage abilities aswell ? They are counted as physical damage and mitigated by armor.

Dymence

No they're not? Mitigated by armor yes, counted as physical damage no.

While it's increased by the Mighty champion point passive, I think it's its own damage bracket, just like shock, frost and fire isn't classified as "magic" damage, yet resides in elemental expert along with magic damage.
So theoretically it should NOT affect your poison and disease damage. Only weapon damage, such as Hundings rage, would do this.

Khajiit can confirm that it does not, which makes it not so useful for nightblades. Stam Sorcs on the other hand

Enslaved

no double dipping.

I wanted to try this set paired with Spriggan's, Draugr's Hulk, and or Hundings( just for Kicks). I think any of these would be good for PVE/PVP.

Why not good for NB? Mostly of skills don't use poison... like for example surprise attack or all two hand skills... I really don't understand why this set is not clearly over Morag tong or Marksman.

Its not good for people who use killers blade or incap. All though you can just sub in Dawnbreaker and Executioner/Steel Tornado.

stam-sorcs and stam-plars both would benefit from this set since most of their moves are "physical damage"
