Today I was changing a password at work and I needed something quick. I was, obviously :trollface:, looking at the ESO forums while at work and I decided to use the last subject I typed:
"Innate Axiom". I wondered why those two words were paired together on a set- so I looked it up in the dictionary.

Innate: inborn, natural
Axiom: a statement or proposition that is regarded as being established, accepted, or self-evidently true (synonym is "principle")

To those of you who don't know- this set buffs your class's fundamental abilities. I thought it was a rather smooth way of naming it. Bravo Zulu.

    No, but it's not even what it means. The latin word for house is domus. Domi is an adverb and means "at home". Therefore, Domihaus means "at home house"

    I actually thought Domihaus would be an interesting set to use on a DK tank in PVP, too. Drop a Standard, Eruption, Talons, and proc Domihaus. Chain people in and use Draw Essence. Welcome them to my house.

    Yeah... if only the fire damage was throughout it instead of only the outer ring. You'd think it'd be a little more formidable considering it's on one of the hardest vet dungeons in the game...

    Speaking of confusions like that, we were joking the other day about Ebon the material and Ebon the set. We were imagining if there was a max level tank out there in Ebon level armour and wondering why things weren't going so well for him :D "What do you mean? I am in Ebon. What red orbs?"

      Set names are appropriate in most cases. I have trouble wrapping my head around some of the ability names though.

      I mean most of them make very little sense to me.

      Coagulating blood: Why name a healing ability thusly, when there's actually medicine to inhibit blood coagulation.

      Harness/Dampen magicka: Before this ability absorbed spell dmg as well as physical dmg, this name was fine. They should have updated it however, since the name suggests it's a spell to harness or dampen harmful magical effects and not physical damage.

      And the best one: Structured entropy, which is an oxymoron :D . I think zos employees just googled words they didn't understand themselves and used them in the hope that players wouldn't understand them either.

      Innate Axiom is a very cool name yes. I'm a bit of a lover of etymology, so i got the meaning already. It has that mechanical ring to it that makes it great for Clockwork City as well.

      I've always wondered about the set "Kagrenac's Hope" though. I mean, we all know who Kagrenac is, the most known high priest/craftlord/tonal architect/artificer of the Dwmeri people, and the one who was - perhaps - responsible for the disappearance of the Dwemer race due to using his tools on the Heart of Lorkhan.

      But what is his hope? What is he hoping for? He doesn't strike me as a particular hopeful fellow. It's just one of those names that boggles me a bit.
