The New Mythic

yeah i think its lacking some important bonuses, namely crit chance, to be really effective on a dps

the only place i could possibly see it working at all would be no proc cyro, since this mythic is all flat passive bonuses

Maybe it is like the promo-shards and it will make sense when they release the "these bonuses don't count as set-bonus" -set.

But jokes aside, if you get enough stats through external support + full divine thief, maybe it will make sense? Too lazy to do the math though.
-20 % damage taken also seems workable for tanks.
If you get enough visions and verses in the archive this could be interesting too, since you can hit armor cap without armor set bonuses. Ensures you get tanky in time. And then you just swap it out between arenas (once the marauder is gone).
From a gameplay perspective I find it unintersting though.

I dont know about this mythic, I rather use my sets, monster sets, other mythic then giving up all set bonuses for this.

One thing is certain, Zos really have no clue how to make interesting sets and mythics anymore.

I tried it in some mid level solo pve and it's not what I'll use for my main. However, I can definitely see it being an instant major buff to all my alts wearing gold gear from nerfed sets that most people just deconstructed. It's kind of nice to be able to have a quick fix at least makes a character playable.

Unless they nerf it or do something absurd with one of the leads, I'll farm this one right when it comes out.

I think its a good thing. Won't have much value to endgame players who already have sets and setups done and farmed.

But for someone new to eso they can potentially slot this and start farming stuff. Not sure on it strength yet but at least its possibly not something overpowered that will be nurffed into the ground in the future.

Its possibly a mythic for players who don't care about set bonuses. just throw this on and instantly you have part of your build done.

One nice use case I can see for this is for quick building of your daily random toons. now you can have a fake tank/healer/dps all in one mythic!

No the Gaze of Sithis is the no block mythic.

"Increases your damage by 1000 % while not logged in on this character"?

I think this Mythic defeats the point of collecting sets and making builds and farming gear.

Maybe it's not meant to add to the combat of the game, but to be a quality-of-life change? That farming it once and spending 25 Transmute Stones is all it takes to gear a character with something ... passable.

Perhaps it would be cool if it gave a boost to enchantments, traits, food, or mundus stones as well, so that we can still customize our build somewhat without using gear set bonuses.

Kartalin

I guess its best use scenario is logging onto a character you haven't used in a while, throwing on various pieces of gear in the desired armored weights, this mythic, and you're good to go.

Or you could just throw on all gear with no set. "Fear the wrath of my legendary Ruby Ash Bow!"

Your guess is as good as mine what their intent was with this.
