The new Voidcaller set
Vayln_Ninetails
✭✭✭✭✭
Light armor
2 – Adds 1206 Maximum Health
3 – Adds 1096 Maximum Magicka
4 – Adds 129 Spell Damage
5 – When you take damage, your Spell Damage is increased by 24 for 5 seconds, stacking up to 20 times. This effect can occur once every half second. Upon reaching 20 stacks, the duration is doubled but can no longer be refreshed.
Why on earth would ANYONE ever use this set? At max stats it gives 480 spell damage for 10 seconds and that's if you take damage rather often.
Compare it to sets that give spell damage without such limiting context and it doesn't live up to those.
The set's name is Voidcaller too, was really hoping for maybe something more creative upon hearing that name. Why the heck have all the light armor sets this year been very lackluster in creativity? The most creative one is the healing frost circle one, at least it does a cool effect. You're telling me with a name like Voidcaller they couldn't think of a more interesting effect than 'ah, just increase spell damage whenever u take damage'. It lasts for so little that it doesn't matter. It doesn't even proc off of self damage either I dont think.
Really struggling to see the purpose of this item set and honestly kinda wanted to screech about how a set called Voidcaller does literally nothing cool or something that makes you go 'man that dude is using the voidcaller set'.
Considering it gives HP it vaguely feels like a somewhat half-done attempt at trying to make ANOTHER magicka tanking set, but even then why such a pointless effect? Tanks dont need spell damage.

✭✭✭✭This is the magicka clone set of Warior's Fury, which, in pvp has been close to BiS for years, magicka players have been asking for this set for literally years..
The dissapointing part is that it came after the rebalance of the few, bis damage stamina sets, where it use to give +600 weapon damage, it now only gives +480.
So it's still pretty good and exactly what some players asked for, it's just unfortunately a little too late in the current meta.
Edit: Also, just because the condition is damage taken, does not mean it's a tank set. In pvp, you're constantly taking damage. I'd say this is more of a brawler set, getting into the thick of the fight and waiting for your max damage bonus to get that window of burst damage, this also buffs your healing, other sets like Spell Strategist don't.Edited by MashmalloMan on September 22, 2020 12:14AMPC Beta - 2200+ CP

Sadly like this. This set is late for like a year to become bis pvp for mana. Nowdays just stack procsets.Edited by Cinbri on September 22, 2020 9:07AM1 -

Why does it have to be a lot of damage???
One dot applied to him will proc the set constantly and will give him dependent of the duration like half the stacks...from one dot. In PvP you always have a dot on you, so you constantly get those stacks.
If you ask such questions, i guess you have never put a foot into PvP content in any mmo.0 -

That....doesn't answer my question and just comes off as rude lol.
It seems this is a PvP set judging by what people are saying.
Which I dont PvP, so that is probably why this set seemed weird to me.0
