Your Item Sets For PvP

Maulkin · August 2014

Title says it all really.

My v12 Sorc wears 7/7 Light with:
> 5-set Seducer. Every clothing item except Hat and Robes
> 3-set Silks of the Sun. Hat, Robes, Necklace
> 3-set PvP Spell Crit Set. 2xRings, Staff

Hat, Robes, Legs are infused the rest are impenetrable. Nothing impressive about it but very high sustain and very high health, magicka and magicka regen stats.

I haven't yet decided what to wear on my DK.

What about you guys, what do you wear?

5-Set Shield of the Valiant (all 7 Pact's Armor Medium pieces)
3-Set Blessing of the Potentates (Pact's Sword+Shield and Pact's Necklace)
3-Set Wrath of the Imperium (Pact's Inferno Staff+ 2 Pact's Rings).

This is all for my V12 DK. Pact's Armor is Divines, Impenetrable and Infused.

On my sorcerer:

5 pieces of light seducer armor
2 pieces of light magnus armor
Personally crafted seducer destro staff.
The expensive (388k+) pvp restro staff plus two pvp Dominion rings (all part of the same set; I forget the set name, Grace something maybe?)

All of it (except the restro staff) barbarian style as from the start I was going for the "wild mage" look.

When I swap to restro staff my seducer set goes down to 5 items (so still have the biggest buff) and I get the Dominion set max buff. Had to do it this way because I like the pvp restro staff so much.

I use this for pvp and pve and healing in dungeons. So pretty much everything.

I do not run out of magicka except under very extreme load (which is very rare).

EDIT: forgot to mention for the crafted armor I always use the Divines trait which boosts my chosen mundus stone effect: Atronach (sp?) - the one that increases magicka regen.

All crafted except jewelry. Still rocking my pre-1.3 set (I looked at the changes to upcoming crafted sets and built around that.

Death's Wind has saved my NB's butt in PvP more times than I can count

On my sorc 7/7 light

5 piece magnus
3 piece aether (yup, still rocking that crit sorc)
3 piece destructive mage (doesn't really do anything in pvp, just using it because I have it)

Lots of room for improvement. Also alot of pvp bag sets that look like they can be abused, just too busy ingame to bother with that stuff.

On my DK which I haven't played in about a month. 7/7 light

5 piece spectre eye
5 piece warlock

Don't play my DK anymore so definitely room for improvement.

I was gonna ask about the bomb mechanic from the destructive mage set before I invest in my third piece - does it go off a lot in pvp?

I don't use heavy attacks (partial heavy works also) very often so the proc doesn't get put on people often, but for small scale pvp or chasing someone I will use a heavy attack and 9/10 someone else will use a heavy attack also and proc the bomb for around 400-500dmg single target (very small aoe radius).I think it might be a useful jewelry set for a bow user, but overall its not worth getting

Pretty sure if we polled the PvP population, and everyone was forced to answer, that it would be 50% light, 25% medium, and 25% heavy.

They really need to rebalance medium and heavy. But they can't as long as the best skills in the game are considered spells and cost Magicka.

I guess more like 60 light, 25 medium, 15 heavy.

If it weren't for the actually quite good PvP heavy set (20% less form siege and player AoE + 5% less from players = 25% less from impulse and batswarms) I would expect it to be sub-5%.

I'm gonna be nice here and share the results of a test I did. I levelled Evasion the medium armor skill (15% dodge chance for 20 secs) and made myself a spectre's eye set (20% dodge for 3 sec after a spell cast, 6 secs cooldown).

Well it turns out the dodge chance stacks and you get 35% for a quite a long time. A player with 35% dodge is quite unplayable 1v1. I tried it on my sorc and laughed my head off as my opponents waisted their resources trying to hit me. You get almost 30% damage mitigation on top of your opponents wasting their magicka/stamina for nothing.

Unbelievably good combo for duelling.

Note: This doesn't stack with DK's Cinder Storm. Cinder is an opponent debuff whereas dodge is a self-buff

Lava_Croft · August 2014

5x Spectre's Eye and 5x Vestments of the Warlock.

Minsc · August 2014

5 Arena/5 warlock LA/1h-sh with Torug's /pvp staff (penet) if I solo/roam. It was usually CC that killed me ( lack of stamina) and not lack of magicka that's why the change for me after 1.3

You don't need to wear nothing. With a body like that, it should be a crime to hide it.

Turelus · August 2014

Mostly still using my armour from when I thought tanking in PVP was actually viable, it's dated and worthless but I'll keep using it until I figure out something new works for me.

5x Pact's Heavy (Bastion of the Heartland)
2x Crafted Heavy (Ashen Grip)
2x Pact's Band (Eagle Eye)
3x Pact's Sword/Shield/Neck (Blessing of the Potentates)

Image below for full information on enchantments, stats and attributes.
Also now all my enemies know my greatest weakness... I suck at this game and use heavy armour. :P
