Master Architect set question

kind_hero

I play a magicka nightblade, and have recently acquired 5+ pieces of Master Architect. I read that even though Siroria is a very strong set (probably the best if you do not move much), Master Architect is quite good for nightblades because we have low cost ultimates which can proc the set's major slayer quite often.

RNG had it that all the 5 body armour pieces I got are infused, so I was wondering which enchant would be better, magicka or tri-stat?

Also I would appreciate opinions about this set for a nightblade. Is it just a niche set or is it a solid option compared to Siroria or Spell Strategist (which I also have). I like to bring some element of support to the group, so that's why I was considering using this set in dungeons/trials.

P.S. The weapons/jw that I use are gold Mother's Sorrow

MA is pretty good on mobile fights, and there’s a lot in ESO. As for the body pieces, all magicka. And the smaller pieces should be divines, if you can transmute them. That way you get more out of your mundus stone.

For PvE DPS right now it is only Divines and only Max mana enchants (as far as you have 16+k HP with food). So just transmute them one by one
And yes, it is very solid, it is often used by NBs on vet trials hard modes to buff 3 damage dealers at once. Brilliant in dungeons too

Would likely force a magblade into melee range for Soul Harvest though, no? I'm currently considering War Machine on a stamblade for fights where it's hard to consistently keep Relequen up, but I wonder if MA uptime from a magblade would be lower on average than WM from a stamblade/stamwarden.

It will, but in most fights this is not a problem. Wouldnt use it in vAS though
