Night Mothers Embrace

TheUrbanWizard

Came across this set recently and I can't decide if it's any good. Max stam, recovery and weapon power (x2) all in the mix.

People seem to use it as a stealth set, but is that all it is good for?

Bank or deco, please decide for me

It's a less powerful alternative to the craftable Night Mother's Gaze set; useful as a filler until you get something better.

Pretty much. The only real uses for Embrace are to combo it with Night Terror, Night's Silence, or Darkstride for stealth builds. It doesn't do well in a straight up fight. You're better off using Hunding's if you want to make a Stam DPS.

personally i think its an underrated set, I mean it's not BIS at all and it's not very good in PVE (unless you're doing heists or sacraments...ect) but it can be pretty decent in PVP, it works best on stamblades for obvious reasons but it is usable on any class(I've tried it on a few).

oh, and you can still get it in heavy too which can be fun to play around with, although it's not supposed to drop in heavy any more so it's "rare as rocking horse ****" but it is still around.

Yep, I currently use Night's Silence, Night Terror, and Nerien'eth for my "sneaky" set. With Night's Silence and Night Terror all well fitted trait, I can run around stealthed at full speed forever. When I do get caught, I can still fight when needed.

Just good for niche stealth builds. Decon if you aren't into that because other damage sets are better otherwise.

Yeh, I mean as secondary set, where weapon damage and penetration are covered

I use it as a second set on my under 50 stamina character (with Hundings when I don't care about stealth, or Night's silence when I do). Spriggans is I'm sure a better overall overland stamina set, but the Bangkorai dolmen setup is much more annoying and I don't find it worth the effort for an under 50.
