    It's really hard to find a build invigorating will be good on. Number-wise it is not that far from divines with a regen mundus. It is just really rare to have a build that requires all three recoveries at the same time. It could've been an interesting trait for PvP if showing up in PvP without impen did not work as equivalent of asking for assisted suicide.

    It doesn't really fit any of my characters. The issue I have with the trait is that it boosts all recovery rates when a given character would really only be interested in invigorating one or two of their attributes. What does my lightning mage care about invigorating his stamina? Pfft! And my plucky bosmer with her bows and arrows? Magicka my arse, she'd say.

    Sure, if I can, I transmute it. However I don't play such that I am swimming in transmute stones. So, if it's the right weight, and it completes a set, it gets worn until something else comes along.

    Invigorating would be an ok trait for PvP, but Impen is completely requisite. Unless you are a block build or a roller build, it's full Impen or bust. It would be nice if our characters had some base Impen so we could have a little more flexibility to run varied traits in PvP.

    Actually not that major. Gold divines with recovery mundus will give you 18 recovery per piece on a single resource. Gold invigorating is 11 recovery on all resources.

    Somebody explain to my why you would do this?

    Invigorating gives 11 recovery per piece if gold. That's 77 mag/stam/hlth recovery for a full set of gold armour.

    A single level 35 normal jewelry glyph gives 79 recovery.

    So wearing three jewelry pieces, with one each of level 35 mag/stam/hlth recovery glyphs, gives more recovery than a full gold armour set of invigorating.

    All armor traits are actually pretty minor when you turn them into flat numbers. Seven gold divines is 126 WD/SD, 1064 stamina/magicka/health or 1445 penetration depending on your mundus. The same is true for other traits. 77 recovery on each resource is not that bad.

    you didn't have a poll option that best described my actual feeling on invigorating, so I had to pick the closest.
    I don't use invigorating, and I turn my nose up at it. However, I have to concede it *might* not be straight up garbage. All I know is, that to me, it SOUNDS like straight up garbage - the numbers on resource restore are soooo low that I'd rather take almost any other trait.

    I wonder what invigorating number could it be to make it worth considering? 12? 13? 14?

    Sorry, I tried to make it as unbiased as I could.

    I wish the numbers were higher too, if they were, I would experiment with it, but with other options, I simply cannot justify using a single piece of Invigorating armor :/

    The numbers are fine. There just isn't a situation were you need regen for all three. Tanks use sturdy, healers and DPS use divines/infused and pvp uses inpen. There just isn't a situation where you need all three. It is a filler triat and in that case it does fine. Better then prosperous that it replaced.

    I'd consider Invigorating if and only if the resource recovery applied to the style of combat that this item's weight was typically used for. For example, a light piece with invigorating trait would boost magicka recovery, a medium piece would boost stamina.

    And the recovery has to be worth losing the 20% max stat that the infused armour previously had, or the 7.5% bonus to the mundus stone that the divines trait provided. So for recovery, that's 16 magicka recovery from Divines as opposed to 11 for a golded out chest piece in Invigorating.

    Sure, you get health and stamina recovery, but as a magicka user those resources are of little use to me: in PVP a tiny trickle of recovery is not going to help since battles are burst damage. In PVE a tiny trickle isn't going to help since a fight is over before that 11 magicka recovery matches potions, orbs or heavy attacks. Perhaps in duels the stamina recovery might come in handy just in case the opponent misses a stun or snare (but I'm still better off focussing on burst damage to finish the fight earlier).

    Then there's the issue that as soon as Invigorating is made even a tiny smidgin better than divines/infused, that will become the new "best in slot" and we'll end up complaining that divines isn't powerful enough.

    Perhaps some new use for invigorating will come out one day, but while the entire game is focussed around maximising DPS that won't happen.

    Having trouble with that veteran trial? Boost your DPS so you can ignore the mechanics.

    Having trouble levelling? Boost your DPS so you gain XP faster.

    Having trouble getting writs done? Boost your DPS so you collect materials faster (or "collect stuff that you sell for gold to then buy the materials" faster).

    Having trouble getting quests done between putting kids to bed and going to bed yourself? Boost your DPS so the hack and slash parts take far less time, improving your gametime efficiency.

    There's the occasional puzzle in your way to unlock the thing you need to apply DPS to. There are very few dungeons that allow you to sneak and pilfer your way through to complete quests (and the ones that do, don't provide other options for completion). You can't blade-of-woe bosses. You can't pickpocket weapons away from mobs you are supposed to kill.

    If it was possible for example to sneak, pickpocket and assassinate your way through Darkshade Caverns instead of beating everything up until it stops moving, then a set of invigorating equipment might come in handy.

    But for the meantime, Divines is pretty much the only trait of interest for PVE so everything else is a waste of time. Epic quality Mothers Sorrow in sturdy? Not even worth looting.
