I want to use Kinras on front bar, but I don't know what to use on body. Burning spellweave, mother's sorrow, Silk of Sun.
What sets do you suggest (except Bahsei and Siroria) ?

    Bahsei is pretty darn tough to beat these days as your body set. Siroria I think is actually a better front bar set than a body set. If you take trial sets off the table, you are probably splitting hairs, and what is best is almost certainly going to be situational.

    Does front bar also imply jewelry? Kinras is medium, so likely you are going to want that for jewelry as well, which makes something like Medusa or Tzogvin less than ideal to pair with it.

    The two sets you mentioned are likely going to be about as good as anything. My guess is that MS is ahead, but I cant be sure about that. Maybe throw False God into the mix as well, but that is more about utility than raw damage (and its also a trial set).

    My MDK is my main quester that I often do vet pledges with in GF so I can queue while I quest. He is still in Medusa Front bar and False god Body. Its dated but the utility is really high and it still pulls PLENTY of damage for anything 4-man. If I take him into trials, well, I just grab my Bahsei off another toon. For questing and overland, its hard to beat. I constantly have major expedition when running through delves, medusa doesn't require any stacks like Tzogvin, so the minor force is always there on your front bar, its a really good combo. I pair with one piece Skoria for the pen and a mythic item (hunt, pale order or DDF, depending on what I am doing). Hunt for most overland (speed is everything when questing), Pale order for soloing world bosses or tougher instances like dragons, gysers, etc, and DDF in dungeons.

    Most meta damage builds these days for magic are a light armor trial set on body and a medium dungeon set for jewelry and weapons. If you pick Kinras as your medium set, you either need to farm a trial set in light or pick one of the classics, and you listed two of the good ones.

    BSW or Sorrow would be fine for your body pieces.

    Can't go wrong with Burning Spellweave. It's a reliable set that boosts healing and damage while proced, and it has a little bit more crit along with it on the set bonus.
