Maintenance for the week of November 4:
• [COMPLETE] ESO Store and Account System for maintenance – November 6, 9:00AM EST (14:00 UTC) - 6:00PM EST (23:00 UTC)
I don't quite understand how this works, if it says you need 9 traits, does that mean you need 9 traits on each crafted peice, or 9 traits over heavy armor total, or over weapons total?
9 traits for each piece of gear you're trying to craft. So you want to make a full set of light armor, that means 9 traits researched for hats, epaulettes, breeches etc.
