Crafted set, The Twice Born Star doesn't work properly in Cyrodil

whenever I use that set in Cyrodiil, my second mundus stone disappears along with any stat changes it provided, causing the bug to make the set's 5 item set bonus not working

That set does not work in Cyrodiil. Only a few sets currently work in Cyrodiil, for a combination of performance and balance reasons. It will start working again in early June, when the new Chapter is released. See this post for more info:

I am new here. Does this mean there are sets that only work in PvP and sets that only work in PvE? How does one know the difference?

Yes, I have played games with gear that had stats added to gear that was PvP specific so I am really asking how do I tell the difference?

Currently only set bonuses working are those that give you a specific stat increase only. Critical, max stamina/magicka/health, spell/weapon damage. Anything that's an effect, cost reduction etc is disabled. If a set bonus has a direct stat increase and another effect, neither are granted, the whole bonus is disabled for that item count. For examole NMA 5th bonus has a stat increase but also a skill cost increase, so the whole bonus is disabled.

Also this is only in Cyrodiil and only for a certain time, they will reenable all bonuses at a later update this year. IC and BG are not affected.

Suggested alternative set?

Be nice to see a set like 'Nice Born Star' that doubles the effectiveness of the single mundi....

I am guessing it take the first mundus stone?

Well, I suppose that explains why Major Gallop and Major Expedition -- total increases of 30% (each?) to movement speed which are the Adept Rider 5th bonus -- were evidently not applied, while my character was doing Scouting Missions. The character had not unlocked the Continuous Assault passive yet. Watching him ride his horse reminded me of how much I truly miss the original Rapid Maneuver ability!

Nonetheless, the leisurely gallop offered an opportunity to appreciate the vast, lovely terrain of Cyrodill! It seems wasted on the conflict which enthralls the foreign invaders from each of the three Alliances.

IMHO, the developers should implement a "PvP flag" which, while set by the player, enables their character to attack other player characters whose "PvP flag" is also set (on) -- anywhere in Tamriel, not just in Cyrodill -- with PvE as the default (off). Inevitably, of course, some violence-worshipping jackass will find a way to set another player character's PvP flag (on) without that player's prior knowledge or consent.

By the way, another character, who is a healer equipped with 5 pieces of the Twice-Born-Star set, lost one of his two Mundus stones. When I recognized that subsequently, I was rather baffled as to why one was dropped. So now I know that his recent visit to Cyrodill was responsible. ..... Hey, this discussion has solved two puzzles with one OP -- without my posting a bug report.
