Whats the reward for being able to craft 9 triat armor sets if the sets themselves are ( mostly if not all ) useless?

    their not all useless twice borns actually usable if you can build it right. a bunch of crafted sets are pvp related as well and some can be for pve if you build it right.

    You can do the master writs that require those sets.

    Also TBS is a good begginers set. So craft it for an alt and try different things. Then you can pass it to the next guy in that armor type. They'll use different mundus stones and try other things.

    These are crappy reasons aren't they...

    Hahahaha, I have built like 8 top tier toons and they are poopoo. Julionos is a really awesome set and i like it being 6 traits so newer players can craft it sooner. But dont you think a 9 trait set should be better than julionos?

    twice born if you build your setup right it can be better than julianos but you have to have a decent setup for it.

    but probly the only ones youll find as some of us have actually pulled pretty decent builds with these sets. it just comes down to how well do you know the game is all the crafted sets come down to.

    The problem I have with 9 trait sets is jewelry now; I finally got 9 traits researched for all medium armor but now I have to do the same for necklaces and rings, which is going to take forever.

    just split it between 2 toons and it takes no time at all.

    Hadn't considered that. I guess it would be easier to have one toon for necks and one for rings. Thanks for the tip!

    TBS just allows for another Mundus stone. I don't even know if Divines works on both, but even if it does, getting 7% out of them really isn't much compared to other sets.

    "Decent setup" would be what?

    TBS may be fun for the double stone for kicks, but to craft it up just to see even a marginal increase of the rocks would be a complete waste of resources.

    i still run it on a heavy hitting stam sorc build. i hit harder than heck while the people cant figure out whats going on. its still good you just gotta figure out what works for it.

    My first inclination would be to add the stones of weapon damage and crit, but I'm still not even sure if these stack with other stuff I'd be wearing.

    This game really doesn't tell you what stacks/doesn't when it comes to buffs.

    penetration and weapon damage is what i roll with another high damage set and monster helmet. it gives tons of damage.

    The major problem I have with TBS is the fact that you LOSE a mundus when you switch sets... and if you're like me and carry different sets for different situations... you'll be constantly running to re-add the second mundus all the time. I have one set of Light armor for regular DPS and a set of Medium armor for stealth situations... and each time I switch to Medium, I lose the second mundus.

    It really does suck that a nine-trait set has to have a 'special build' just to utilize it... whereas six-trait sets are just awesome as is.

    TBS is a solid set for soloists in some cases. I have a full set in gold from the glory days and still use it.

    Just curious, what's your other set? I was thinking of running TBS and something else for a Stam DK.

    I'm running TBS and Seducer (soon to be Kags as soon as I have enough traits researched to craft the jewelry) on my magplar in PVP. With the Apprentice and Lover Mundus.

    I like TBS in this case because it provides a source of damage and penetration without needing to run a penetration set. It also has a solid 2-4 piece in PVP.

    Regardless 9 trait sets need improvement. Twice Born Star is the only one getting any recognition.

    What armor skill are people using with Armor Master?

    I used to be excited to use Nocturnal’s Favor with my saptank but I got ZOSd on that one and haven’t revisited him since.

    If you doing damage you will hit harder wearing julionos or hundings unless your running a magic and stamina damage build. Lets be honest, once you get to 6 traits your pretty much done. 9 trait is really just for show.

    Most of the 9 trait sets are very niche. They're useful in specific builds or situations, but none of them are easy to run. That includes TBS, which is arguably the easiest 9 trait to use.

    TBS became far from BiS when they nerfed it indirectly via both the theif mundus nerf and the WH nerf. What is funny about the WH nerf is Zos actually billed that as a buff when it could only be considered a buff for those who never used it.

    I just want to visit this again. The best set for tanks right now is a 3 trait set. I’m so frustrated. Torug’s Pact and Hist Bark. Ugh!

    I want to put forward an update to the 5 and less trait sets: if you wear 7 pieces you get a greater or new bonus. Like this:

    Hist Bark
    (2 items) Adds 2975 Physical Resistance

    (3 items) Adds 129 Health Recovery

    (4 items) Adds 1206 Maximum Health

    (5 items) While you are blocking you gain Major Evasion, increasing dodge chance by 15%.

    (7 items) Reduces the cost of your stamina abilities by 8%

    Or something like that. Maybe it could be a magicka reduction on tank-based sets (since tanks still use magic for most class skills) and a stamina reduction on magic-based sets because magicka users still need to roll dodge and sprint.

    Actually, the key question is:

    Why didn’t you ask about 9-trait sets way sooner ... before blindly committing to eight (8) “top tier” characters?

    Why would 9 traits be better when the set system in this game is based on horizontal not vertical progression.

    I like Pelinal's.

    That aside the nine trait sets really don't have the stats one would assume belong on a set that takes weeks to be able to make.
