Tava's Favor + Hist Bark. The ultimate tanking setup. Pun intended.

Crafting jewelry for existing crafted sets. Not having to keep grinding whatever to get purple jewelry would be great. Have 5 pieces of BSW but not the jewelry? That's fine, got a neck and rings of Julianos right here.

Most likely it will be jewels from 5 piece sets that are already/will be craftable, or new 3 piece jewel sets, similar to Agility & Willpower.

For dropped sets jewelry is actually the easiest to get, since it only comes in 1 trait and 2 types, and it's half of the loot table, and the other half is 11 weapon types & shield. So mathematically it's about 6 times easier to get jewelry than the right weapon slot not considering traits, since you can now change them. I've spent hours in Darkshade Caverns trying to get Strength of the Automaton daggers and I only got 1 after ~100 runs over the last few weeks, though for some reason I got stacks of staves and bows - at least the latter "dropped intelligently" though they are utterly useless for someone like me who has a at least a Maelstrom one for every char. In the same time I've seen dozens of blue jewels I could have picked. At some point I did farm purple jewels in case I needed them on veteran and got the generic ones after 4-5 runs.

Hm, yes, that's why I'm still grinding dungeons for necks and rings for 3 sets...soooooo easy to get. You clearly do not understand ZOS rng.

Assuming we could apply our own traits to the jewelry, up to three as we can find in the game:
Reduce Stamina Cost
Add Stamina
Increase Physical Damage

If we're only allowed 2:
Reduce Stamina Cost
Increase Physical Damage

Two guesses what class I play and the first two don't count.

Nothing, excepts if they add new " trait " to jewelry, I don't plan to craft any.

I only hope it won't be hidden behind somekind of paywall... I wan't it to be usual crafting station, placed in every darn city, town or village. I wan't mats to be world wide (Pitbull xD) available. No restrictions, no micropaymets, just add it as a basic content as it should be from the very beginning.

Very likely to be in an expansion package though

It still would be ok If someone could buy the DLC and since then craft jewlery without limits, but Im afriad they will implement it in some way like Outfits. Like you need special material to craft jewlery in desired trait available in crown store for just 500 crowns or... you can buy it for 50k gold/drop it from vHM of new trial last boss with a 10% chance You see? You can get it in game, we just want you to have an option to choose where you would like to get those mats. #convenience

After the Outfit fiasco this is exactly what I'm afraid of. It has always been one step forwards, two steps back for crafting so far, so I really do hope they do the right thing and let crafters be crafters, even if the jewelry has to be bound to the crafter.

Hist bark + Trava's favor obviously.

But the main reason is that getting blue SPC, and moondancer upgradable gear is easy but you can't get the rings without the much more difficult Vet difficulty

You wouldn't need the rings to start with if you're new to vmol ... You could go moondancer body and julianos Jewellery ... That's if it's craftable ... has anyone seen a confirmed list of sets yet ?

Jewel crafting is a huge change because it makes the dropped sets everyone used before replaceable. So those are going to get changed, or else no-one will keep them. Everything dropped will just get de-constructed or researched.

There will be new sets if/when this happens, and if they compensate on the dropped sets to keep them viable, we may all suddenly switch to dropped-only!

I agree it will be a huge change but I disagree that dropped sets will become garbage. Most players will still go for the combination that offers the best value. Currently everyone is forced to use specific dropped jewelry sets because you cannot craft jewelry and some sets only come with healthy jewelry.

Now both restrictions are off the table, you can craft jewelry AND you can change healthy jewelry to something useful.
Besides, with the new jewelry traits entirely different combinations could become viable.

All in all, theory craft heaven is about be released upon us.

Flawless Emerald Necklace pretty much identical to the one craftable in Skyrim - I want to swan about in my own version of the Necklace of Girion.
