    sigh...sharpened doesn't need a nerf...the other traits need a buff. Someone at ZoS just need to sit down and do the math and figure out what kind of buff would be required to bring infused, precise, nirnhoned, weighted, etc up to comparable levels damage wise. Even that wont help though...the all-knowing "meta" will soon declare a different trait to be the "best" and it will start all over again....sometimes you just have to let something be the best, thats all there is to it.

    I saw a bunch of Sharpened Spinner weapons for sale in zone chat yesterday. I wonder if they knew or if it was a coincidence.

    Unless you can have certain traits to be the best on certain scenarios or builds. If they nerfed sharpened or buffed the other traits to comparable levels is effectively the same.

    Spinner got nerfed, too. Any item set that has a "Armor/Spell Penetration" effect on it got reduced by 55%. FYI

    Universally adjusted the values of some 1, 2, 3, and 4-piece bonus stats for all Item Sets:
    Max Health, Magicka, or Stamina has been increased by 13.3%
    Weapon Critical or Spell Critical rating has been increased by 55%
    Physical or Spell Resistance has been increased by 13.8%
    Physical or Spell Penetration has been decreased by 22%

    Wrong on all accounts there.

    According to the patch notes only the 1-4th pieces are affected. So spriggan/spinner should be unaffected

    No, here is what the notes say:

    Universally adjusted the values of some 1, 2, 3, and 4-piece bonus stats for all Item Sets:

    Max Health, Magicka, or Stamina has been increased by 13.3%
    Weapon Critical or Spell Critical rating has been increased by 55%
    Physical or Spell Resistance has been increased by 13.8%
    Physical or Spell Penetration has been decreased by 22%

    And spinner and spriggans penetration are 5 piece and thus not affected. Actually they both got buffed since they have max stamina and max magicka as 2 and 3 piece bonus.

    There isn't any 1-4 piece that have spell pen, so of course they are talking about those sets, plus probably twice fang snake. How about you load up the pts and check?

    He just pointed one out, and at least one of the new sets had a spell pen bonus.
