Bleedbuild is stronk

Gan Xing

So i tried the combo of the two new medium armor sets + Krag'h on a stam warden. Was able to solo lvl 5 resources with little to no problem (used dual axes and 2h battleaxe)

abilities that cause bleed = twin slashes (dual), and carve (2h)
Not sure about effectiveness in non-cp, or dueling, nobody came to fight me.

Blooddrinker is a great set, I feel like I would rather pair it with the spriggan set or bone pirate tbh.

Pillar of Nirn 5 piece has a fairly noticeable effect that can be avoided (it takes 1 sec for ability to deal damage)

Another set that causes bleed damage is Twin Sisters.

My tank used to wear the jewelry and small piece gloves and belt with another heavy armor set.

Just more food for thought for the theorycrafters out there ...

You'll probably be best off pairing the 20% bleed dmg set with something like Fury or another strong heavy set.

Currently the strongest stamina builds are already wearing heavy for 5k+ weapon damage & stacking the 2H & DW bleeds for some serious damage.

@Taleof2Cities Twin Sisters damage was really disappointing last time I tested it (a couple weeks ago), didn't really seem to do much at all when it procced (significantly less than Sheer Venom for example).

For this reason, I don't have much hope for the new Pillar of Nirn set either, even with +20% to the proc dmg from Blooddrinker.

For those who don't want to find the set:

Blooddrinker (Medium)
(2) Weapon Critical
(3) Weapon Damage
(4) Weapon Critical(5) Increases the damage you deal with bleed damage over time effects by 20%.

Pillar of Nirn (Medium)
(2) Max Stamina
(3) Weapon Critical
(4) Weapon Damage
(5) When you deal damage, you have a 10% chance to create a fissure underneath the enemy after 1 second, dealing 2,000 Physical Damage to all enemies within 2.5 meters and causing them to bleed for an additional 8,000 Physical Damage over 10 seconds. This effect can occur once every 10 seconds.

Twin Sisters - not updated for next patch
(2 items) Adds 129 Stamina Recovery
(3 items) Adds 967 Max Stamina
(4 items) Adds 688 Weapon Critical
(5 items) When you block an attack, you have a 20% chance to cause all enemies within 5 meters of you to bleed for 8820 Physical Damage over 8 seconds. This effect can occur once every 8 seconds.

Pillar of Nirn has stronger damage than twin sisters, but smaller range.
Twin sisters might[/] not have a cooldown

well when it is the only thing you can do in PTS and nobody is on to fight, yea.
Had there been any other players at that node, I would have had more difficulty

You get it from the new DLC dungeons. In particular Bloodroot forge. Pillar of Nirn is from Falkreath Hold

He means resources in Cyrodiil, like the Mines, Farms and Lumber mills, not material nodes.

Not sure, I was able to test the build with my friend in a duel...

rotation = dual heavy attack, rending slashes, 2h heavy attack, carve. The bleed + those abilities + krag'h proc killed him, and he had 30k health (this is without him healing/fighting)

RoyJade

Bleed is indeed reduced y battle spirit. And that's good, I can reach 25k bleed tick in pve.

Soloing dumb npc's is no way to judge a build

No, but it helps determine how capable you can deal with a lot of spells being focused on you. Sure NPCs don't have similar defensive stats as your typical PvPer, it helps gauge some of my survivability/solo play
