I haven't PvP'd much but when I do, I usually have a lot of fun. The problem is that I am pretty weak at vr4. Wanted to craft a new set of armor but not too sure which to pick. I am a stamina nightblade, bow, 2h and dw. What would your recommendations be in terms of which set bonuses, traits, etc? Would appreciate any adivce/tips. Thanks in advance!

    ha that's what I am using now actually. Great for dps, but I figured I would need to change up some pieces for PvP. Maybe like Night's Silence to get faster sneak?

    My Stamina chars use 5x night's silence and 4x ashen grip sets for pvp. Good dps and critical rating and no sneak speed penalty is always great in pvp, especially for a nightblade. In fact many i've seen use it as it's a must-have if you are built around stealth and sneak attacks.
    Sometimes, I dream about...cheese...

    Dermont - v16 Pompous Altmer Sorcerer (With a very arrogant face!)
    Egonieser - v16 Nord Stamina Dragonborn Wannabe
    Endoly - v16 Tiny Redguard Sharpened MaceBlade
    Egosalina - v16 Breton Cheesus Beam Specialist
    Egowen - v16 Dunmer Whipping Expert (Riding crops eluded her)
    (Yes, I had to grind all these to v16)
    Akamanakh - lvl 22 Khajiit GankBlade (Inspired by Top Cat)
    Targos Icewind - lvl 34 Imperial (Future) Jabplar
    (CP 830+)

    That's what I used in non-vet PVP and it's hard to give-up the Night's Silence speed bonus after you get used to it, but, at least at the low VR levels, I value mitigation and regeneration of resources much more than the stealth speed of Night's Silence.

    so what are you using now that you prefer over the night's silence?

    Also, is impenetrable on all items still a must since the stat changes?
