    It's quite unique with all those set bonuses, and nothing else really does all that.
    But depending on content, some other options are better.

    Or just do Veteran Trials, they drop as candy for me there, but still no IA staff :/

    Dreugh King Slayer can at least replicate the damage and expedition, but does nothing for sustain. VO really is a unique set that is hard to replace, especially for stuff like vMA.

    Hi there.

    Because the set is quite unique you'd need to run multiple ones to cover all the bonuses it gives, but even then you won't cover al of them.

    The best I found was Vengeance Leech (necklace and two weapons)
    http://elderscrollsonline.wiki.fextralife.com/Vengeance+of+the+Leech+Set

    Plus King Slayer (2 rings, 3 body)
    http://elderscrollsonline.wiki.fextralife.com/Dreugh+King+Slayer+Set

    Both these sets gives you the speed boost + sustain ability and leech also gives back health which helps a lot. But again it doesn't cover everything...

    With this setup then you can run another 4 piece set / 5 piece including your secondary weapon, or a monster helm set + a three piece.

    Now king slayer is heavy so you miss out on any 5 piece med armour bonuses. If you want them, you could run a set like 'Jailbreaker' instead and you would get 10% extra speed at all times instead.
    http://elderscrollsonline.wiki.fextralife.com/Jailbreaker+Set

    The sets are fun to play with, you should browse through and try to make some cool combos!

    Good luck.

    You need to get a decent guild that shares loot. I started vending/giving this crap away after I had 5 full sets. Most experienced raiders have more of this than they know what to do with. We get people full sets of jewelry in 1-2 runs.

    Also, you need to be doing VSOHM. A full set of VO drops pretty much every clear for the group.

    What he said.

    Unfortunately there is no alternative to VO. If you're running stam and wish to push DPS numbers this is the way to go.

    People could suggest maelstrom weapons monster set nmg/tbs and agility... but that's yucky.
