Just like the title says,

Will there be new armor sets with the Morrowind expansion in June, either dropped or crafted?

    We haven't had any official word, but of course there will be new armour sets. Every piece of new content since launch has included new armour sets, there's no way they'd skip that with Morrowind.

    I would be shocked if there was only 1 new crafted set. Even the tiny TG and DB DLCs had more crafted sets than that.

    No way it's less than 3. Also, I think we all just stumbled onto how they will make crafting relevant again. 3 uber crafted sets behind the $40 pay wall.

    Plus 3 from trial.

    At least 9 I'd guess.

    I'd guess 3 from battlegrounds as well. I'd be surprised if there are fewer than 12 new sets in total.

    The crafted set will of course require 9 traits to crafted, but at this point, most people have that or at least know someone who does. Trait learning is no longer a time sink due to the number of old crafters. That leaves the diabolical RNG to make content last longer. That's why I think there will only be 1 (2 at the most) crafted sets.

    Highly doubtful. Imperial City introduced 3 new crafted sets, including 1 that's a 9-trait set. Wrothgar introduced 3 new crafted sets, including 1 that's a 9-trait set. Thieves Guild introduced 3 new crafted sets, including 1 that's a 9-trait set. Dark Brotherhood introduced 3 new crafted sets, including 1 that's a 9-trait set.

    The only new content zone we've had added since launch that included fewer than 3 new crafted sets is Craglorn, which only has 2 (1 of which is a 9-trait set, and prior to that set's introduction there were only 8 researchable traits in the game). And of course Craglorn was introduced when nobody bought new content because the game was sub-only, so it's an entirely different model. Now that people can choose to pay for new content or choose not to pay for it, it makes more sense to include more crafted sets, not fewer.

    there usually 3 crafted, which while many are only minimally aligned they usually are aligned as 1. magicka focus, 1 stamina focused, 1 health/tank focused.

    :p;)

    On a more serious note - but of course there will be new armor sets! How many will in part depend on how large Vvardenfell will end up being... since they are making it an "expansion" instead of just an DLC, it might even end up being a multi-region place... which might boost the number of overland sets. Who knows? We may just have to wait and see...

    Well sorry but nothing is behind a paywall (or iirc has ever been behind a paywall) for crafted sets - they have been being sold in guild stores since day one.

    And after Monday iirc, "attuned" stations can be in normal zones in houses that are tied to sets from PVP and DLC zones. (not sure about that but will see.)

    So, yeah, their plan of "locking" BoE craftable sets behind paywall is seriously mind-bogglingly inscrutable in its dizzying "brilliance." Working as intended.

    three open crafted sets per zone, 3 BoE drop sets overland and then special sets BOP sets for vet dungeons and trials and arenas is the new normal.

    Might see a difference for an "oversized" zone.

    my hope tho is we see changes to what crafted can do - to give them "unique" contributions to the build construction beyond style control. give them their own seat at the "endgear table."

    considering the projected scope of Morrowind, I wholly expect...
    - 3 or more crafted sets
    - 6 or more overworld sets
    - 3 or more trial sets
    - 3 or more "pvp" sets, from battlegrounds

    I would expect a large number of new sets more than a simple DLC.

    Both drop and crafted.

    It looks large enough to be 2 or 3 seperate zones. 4 if you cound battleground seperately.

    3 crafting stations in Vvardenfell have been datamined last year already. So at least expect those.

    There'll be more than enough new sets. I'm more interested in new styles, to be honest.
    I tried to analyse the screenshots for which styles to expect in another thread.

    Since nirnhoned is no longer a thing, can they just make items drop now in regular content? I think it's been prove it's actually a disadvantage to use that trait.

    ^This. @Castagere in ESO it will be called 'Buoyant Armiger' (Vivec's personal fighters) though the jury's still out on whether it will drop as a Motif at launch. I'd be surprised if they don't have it drop sooner or later, seeing as that seems to be their favorite way of luring people to do older content again.
