Greymoor is bringing me back to the game after several years away, and this time I'm determined to play characters that I find fun rather than chasing the meta so hard. I mostly play solo PvE and sometimes PvP, so I just want a character that can handle themselves on the overworld (solo world bosses, normal dungeons, etc).
I have a Dark Elf MagDK that I made years ago when DEs actually got boosted flame damage. Now I'd like to convert her to a hybrid 2h/Flamestaff battlemage. I'm wondering if there are any viable hybrid options in this new chapter or recent ones I missed other than Pelinals + something. Any new set combos that would work for a hybrid DK?
If stacking weapon damage through Pelinals is still the best approach, could anyone offer a returning player some advice for how to find/hire someone to craft for me? I only have 8 traits on all my crafting (no nirnhoned), so I can't make pelinals for myself, and I can't find a single piece of it on guild traders. Any advice on how to find a friendly crafter if I'm not in a guild?
Thanks in advance!
