I don't like cluttering up my bank. Scrolling through gear also becomes tedious. (I'm on PS4. Wish ZOS would put a search feature in or some sort of drop-down menu, both for gear and guild stores, but I digress) I have ESO Plus, but I'm still too cheap to want to kick down what is now up to 80K in gold to buy more bank space, when I could blow it on a house I don't need or an overpriced dagger in the guild store. Plus, I love to hoard gear as I have the (usually unfounded) fear that I am going to deconstruct some piece of armor or weapon that I will end up needing weeks down the road, or if I create a new build, or if some set gets nerfed, etc. I'm sure I'm not the only one who has these issues.
I've looked at some other posts on this site, what Alcast and Deltia use, Reddit threads, other "less than trustworthy" sources, and personal preferences to come up with a list of what I should keep. Its primarily gear for meta builds. By no means am I claiming this list is the end-all of gear, and I am 100% positive it will offend some and anger others. Either way, I found it helpful so far, and I hope some might find it convenient. Please don't get hung up with the categories I put them in, they were just to help tell me why I wanted to keep them. Its an ongoing work in progress as more likely will be added.
I did not make a deconstruction list, as I've seen those in the past and they always result in a deluge of "You idiot, [insert set here] is amazing" posts, so please don't think I am deconning everything else that didn't make the list, although, I am deconning most of it. I am leaning that way for sets that are not on this list, but I still have things like Red Mountain, Fasalla's, Defiler, and others that I don't necessarily feel comfortable scrapping for mats, but at the same time I'm not using or using it sparingly.
I know I missed some, or a lot, as I focus more on PVE and dungeon/trials and don't spend a lot of time doing PVP. To start off the "you forgot this set" thread, I did not include all monster sets as I felt it was implied that you would just keep those sets, no matter what.
