Which would be better for armour divines or infused? assuming both sets are v14 legendary both with legendary enchants for max magicka using the mage mundus.Can you please explain why as that way I can work things like this out myself in the future.

Mix it up. Typically you want infused on the bigger pieces (like chest) to get max benefit. Put divines on the smaller pieces like gloves.

so on the smaller pieces divines gives more magika then?

Conventional wisdom has been that you put Infused on Head, Chest, Legs and Shield (if using it), and Divines on the other armor pieces.

However, people will do different things depending on what they are going after (like all divines or some Reinforced, or whatever, really).

Head, Chest and Legs with infused, rest with divines.

Maths. You can just calculate it yourself.

yeah I dont have the info for the maths ie how much magicka the mage gives how much the enchants give and how much they are modified by on large and small legendary pieces.

The Mage increases max magicka by 1280
Divines Increases Mundus effect by 7.5%
Infused increase enchantment by 20%

So 1280*.075 = 96 pts
When using the mage mundus divines will net you an additional 96 magicka for each piece.

A legendary enchantment on head chest and legs is 638 (need confirmation) ?
So 638*.20 = 127.6 increase with infused

A regular enchantment on small pieces is 199 (need confirmation)?
So 199*.2 = ~40 increase with infused

*Therefore infused on large pieces nets a 127.6 pt increase versus divines 96. Go with infused on head, legs and chest.

*Infused only nets a 40 pts increase on small pieces versus divines 96. Go with divines on sash, gloves, boots and shoulders.
*assumed only for mage mundus stone

As a crafter I've never had someone want a full set of infused or it's so rare I can't remember. Full sets of Divines are pretty common though.

if someone could tell me the tooltip value of a legendary mag glyph (applied to both large and small pieces) this could be more accurate, atm i'm just going off what I can remember as I'm at work
