What cool effect does it generate??? (Note: I do not count a shrinking health bar as a unique effect of using an armor/weapon set...)

Well the confusion stems from 'affect' usually being a verb that means to change or impact, and 'effect' which is normally a noun that means the result of a change or impact. The thread title points to 'effect'.
In your thread's body text though, 'effect' is neither of these and is instead a 'visual effect'. So it's easy to see where the crossed-wires come from!
OK... Come on.... I'll hold your hand... Look.... Do you see the word "affect" anywhere, besides in your post??? So, you had to make-up the presence of a word, so you could explain your confusion??
I ain't confused mate! I was explaining why others may be using the word 'effect' to define the result of a set's 'affect', rather than using 'effect' as you intended, which is a 'visual effect'.
Do you know what an affect is? It's a term from psychology, that has nothing to do with a 5pc set bonus.
The OP didn't use the wrong word in his post, he simply didn't explain that he meant visual effects that result from a set proc and not the set bonus itself.
Shame on me for crediting the readers of my post for knowing things without holding their hands all the way through... I guess my next post has to start with the invention of the wheel... THAT won't be a wall of text.... :shrug:

I guess the title "IYO What 5 piece set has the best/coolest visual" might have been a better choice.

Maybe a good idea... "The great unwashed" don't seem to be able to distinguish between "effects" and "results..."
It's senseless to try to bring them along...
Although, I think it's better to discover the limits of some people's intelligence and try to help them pick-up their thinking game than to dumb things down for them... If they're not up to the challenge... That's what Darwinism's for...
