I need some insight for medium armor at PvP

Luckylancer

Hi folks, I will grind an imperial stamplar soon, you know when . I want to use medium armor but i want to hit armor cap. I tried to make a build and have questions about it. I dont know to much about builds but tried to make one anyways

Briarheart for weapon d buff and some health gain + imperial passive. 5 medium
Mark of pariah for max resists at lower health. I m imp so i have more max hp to gain benefit of 5pc(+6k at %50). 2 weapons+jewels
Bloodspawn for more resists and ult regen.
All max stam and impen. Dualwield+shield

Questions: Is pariah set good for medium armor setups with high max hp? Is bloodspawn good on non-heavy builds(taking dmg to proc seems bit dangerous without proper defence)? Should is switch briar with a stam sustain set?

Note: I know pariah is normaly useless because it is easy to get max res with heavy but i want to try something diffrent.

Pariah is not that good, since it requires you to be low to be tanky, when instead you could just be tanky in general.

You can hit armour cap pretty easily in medium.
Run 5 Armour Master (using shuffle to proc the 5pc) and then run 1 chudan, 1 pirate skeleton (can be replaced with blood spawn if you prefer)

All up that will be giving you about 15k resistances from set bonuses alone. Throw in some major ward and resolve, and you'll hit armour cap with 5 set pieces to spare.

Next patch you can even drop armour master for Fortified Brass, which just gives you the resists armour master does without needing to do anything.

If you're interested in ult regen for medium look into tavas favor crafted set. You gain ultimate when you dodge attacks, and with medium dodging will be your main way to prevent damage.

The best setup to hit armor cap in medium armor with stamplar is as follows.

5 meridias, 5 bone pirate, 1 pirate skeleton, 1 might chudan. Back bar meridias sword and shield, heavy Meridia chest and legs, robust Meridia necklace (there's a named robust one - you don't need to use healthy). Bone pirate belt boots gloves 2 rings. Medium pirate skele head or shoulder and medium chudan head or shoulder. About 20 points into medium armor focus cp. Nirn vma or asylum 2h frontbar. Dubious food, penetration mundus. Redguard.

Back bar 33k spell 32.5k physical, good sustain, good damage. Use an infused meridias sword with weapon damage and you'll hit 4k when you weave a light attack before each burst rotation.

Love this thread. I am curious, what are the thoughts on using impregnable on medium?

Impreg is great as it allows you to run other traits besides impen on your armor and not blow up. You can use something like well fitted or divines without losing out on that crit resistance

Impreg with twice born in all divines is actually very nice.

Impreg with senche well fitted and serpent stone is nice as well.

I was thinking about a medium armor dodge roll build. How useful is the eternal hunt rune? Is it hard to hit players with it?

Only roll dodging will gimp you as you'll need some other way of survive since there's too many undodgeable things,especially if you want to 1vx
