An Idea for Monster Helm grinding

I was thinking about this, not sure if it would work but let me know what you guys think. A lot of people who are grinding for monster sets are running the dungeons on VR16 so that they get the VR16 helmets. Maybe the chance for helmet drops could be increased (and I'm not saying it should be a huge increase) when running the dungeons on VR16 since most people are running it on that level strictly for grinding purposes. What do you guys think? The drop rate is so small right now, it's kind of dumb, it needs a bit of a bump in drop chance.

    Anyone grinding for monster sets before reaching max level does not know what he's doing.


    I honestly believe that lower level set items have a higher chance to drop.

    But that's what I'm saying, the vr16's grinding forever for this stuff, a lot of the ones I'm talking to, just give up trying because the drop rate is so terrible. I've said it before, this game is like a slot machine that doesn't pay out. Zos thinks that by making these things ridiculously hard to get that it will make people keep playing forever, but I feel like it'll start driving people away. Lol, for the love of God, they put vamp and WW bites in the crown store lol. All people had to do to get a bite was go to an area and stand there and wait. But the people who are doing some of the hardest stuff in the game, you don't give them a break? And I'll go a step further and say that they're making it even harder because of the bind on pick up for everything, like all the new sets and stuff in wrothgar. It's just ridiculous, IMO.

    So long as shoulders are V16 it makes little difference what level the helm is bar the main perk scales to the shoulders. They are the issue not the helms. No issue with grinding a helm but I have an issue with getting nowt in the chest and waiting a day for another slim chance of getting the wrong item, trait etc let alone the right one.

    This is definitely a problem as well. I was trying to grind for the briar heart set and ended up with a piece that has Well Fitted on it. Why does this trait even exist? Does anyone actually use this trait?
