Good BoE sets and build for Magicka Nightblade?

Spaghettiknight
I'm looking for suggestions for BoE sets for a Magicka Nightblade. I'd prefer to do a magicka melee build (I'll be doing normal dungeons and some PvP). Character is an Argonian but eventually suggestions will be applied to a Dunmer. Character will also be a vampire.

So far I'm thinking I might use the War Maiden set. Might also like a sort of hybrid build using Swallow Soul and other siphoning skills.

What I'd like:
-Sets that work for neutral magic damage and the NB class (if this needs to be given up for Max Magicka and Spell Crit that's fine, but I'd like a balance of all 3 if possible)
-Sets that provide Max Magica and Spell Critical
-Stuff that compliments the war maiden set (if I don't have to give that up)
-Possibly cost reduction


Doesn't necessarily have to be a full on gank build either, but if that's the most effective melee Mag NB then so be it.

    If you're going DW:

    War Maiden/Spinner/Skoria (offensive)
    War Maiden/Wizards Riposte or Transmutation/Skoria (more defensive)

    Destro/Resto:
    War Maiden/Transmutation/Skoria
    Wizards Riposte/Transmutation/Skoria (the survival set)

    When you also talk about crafted sets - Shacklebreaker is worth a try and of course Julianos...

    Just my 2 cents...

    Dual Wield/Destro probably. I was thinking about Julianos but it's really crit heavy so I could only use it in PvE (maybe I could use it over the Spinner set?) For PvE only.
