    Why would it be nerfd? Not many people are even using it because you sacrifice your sets big 5th bonus of damage or utility for sneak speed.

    The set won't be nerf as you are trading damage/crit/regen for a sneak bonus.

    This set + vampire + NB with conceal = someone moving faster than sprinting horse in stealth.

    Dude you are traveling at bard speed six in stealth... you are not giving up much.... I ran down horses last night...I do agree u do lose if you are using magicka only...However this with NB dissapear, and Vamp mist you are almost impossiable to catch... Stealth potions are meaningless...with this type of speed...trust me i hope they dont i really like this set fits perfectly with my dk/vamp/stealther...

    Incorrect, I tested this last night and I move as fast as a fast horse sprinting, not faster. And yes I and a NB Vamp, but I lost 14% crit and regen, so the set it's not really desirable at all.

    But a dots means no bonus and its a stamina set so there is a trade off so people are right about that...At least there is a trade off...

    Well they don't have to nerf the set, not everyone is a vamp. Just don't allow the two speed buffs to stack.

    I tested it also i thought it was slower then a fully upgraded sprinting speed horse unless the guy i was racing was not moving in a straight line...

    I am going to make a 5 piece set of medium for this and just pop it on when I want to sneak longer distances or am scouting I think.

    I use invasion so the little stamina is nice for me... i love this set.. however for 100% magicka CONCERNED people this set is not for you.... It offers a fast get away and attack however if you are dotted its hurts alote! You can get 2× crit with another set and 3× the crit if you try make a crit centered build....

    Night's Silence set: If you craft the set on weapons, when you weapon swap them it may bug and the speed bonus in stealth will not work until you unequipped and re-equip the set. Or so I've heard.

    Don't forget invisibility+speed pots for that extra 30%, so you can get to 215%!

    I saw a NB vamp in craglorn w/ this set sneaking around to gather mats. He was literally sneaking faster than I could BE after him. :trollface:

    It doesn't technically offer a fast get away.
    The bonus stops working in combat, so once you commit to a fight it certainly does not allow faster escape.

    To the OP, yes I noticed the same thing. Removing then putting the armor back on fixes it.

    Same here.

    And considering it is a 5pc, you give up a lot to go for it. Awesome solo but even then vamp + only while undetected + no benefit while fighting unless you get away, + giving up an awesome 5pc like sisters or whitestrake, is a big deal.

    I have it and it's great when soloing as others have said, but is it worth it?

    I'd say not although the surviability it great as an NB. Snare and leave the combat area to get back into your stealth speed has saved my bacon a few times now.

    I also love this set for scouting on my vamp NB. However, I am not going to make it or use it because I no longer trust anything this company does.

    Until we get an official word from ZOS regarding what if anything they plan to do to nerf it or cap stealth speed stacking, potentially making it worthless, I'm a bit gun shy to go spending tens of thousands of gold just to have them completely wreck or change the set bonuses again out from under me.

    Official word or I pretend every good thing is an error that will soon be taken away.

    I think ZOS will leave nights silence as is simply for the fact they have already changed it down to the 60% from the tooltips %220 (which was plain wrong and would have been OP, imagine players with 300%+ speed all the time... I'd have to dye myself some red Armour just like the Flash)

    It's easy enough to get mats, seriously I'm stocking up on different types of Armour's for different tasks. Night Silence is great while soloing in Cyrodiil doing sneaky stuff and will be good when on a scroll grab, so I'll just keep it to the side when not using it and when I need it, it's there.

    The right set for the right job I reckon. At least, that's the way I see it. :D
