Need some advice on gear for my stamblade (PVP)

Azor_Ahaii · May 2016

I currently have 5 piece marksmen, 4 piece lekis, 1 piece kena and 1 piece bloodspawn ready for when my stamblade gets to v16.
I was planning to use this and blue food but then I decided that I should probably go 5 piece hundings instead of marksmen and go with drinks instead as my weapon damage could be very low with marksmen. I'm playing on azura so I won't have any recovery boost from CP.
Do you think 5 piece hundings, 4 piece lekis, 1 kena and 1 bloodspawn sounds good or have any of you got any better gear choices? I cannot afford to buy robust agility and I do not have any maelstrom weapons.

You only miss around 130 wpn dmg with marksmen though.

I was planning to go

5x Hundings/ Shieldbreaker - I'd swap between them depending what i felt like
4x Marksmen - 3x Jewellery + 1 Helm or shoulder.
1x Markmen bow - In my opinion bettet than a maelstrom is this situation.

Then maelstrom 2h if i actually ever get it. Or another marksmen Weapon.

If your going dual wield then 2x leki.

I could go hundings and marksmen but then I'd only have 24k stamina because I'm an Argonina -_-
I really want to work towards getting the skirmisher set, it gives around 430-450 weapon damage and around 5% crit chance for 4 seconds after dodge rolling. The set bonuses are increased stamina, stam regen and weapon crit which is very good for pvp because of the regen.

Marksman 5 pc is really only good if the vast majority of your damage is coming from your bow.
With skirmisher...you're regen has to be high enough to sustain roll dodging every 4 seconds right? Which means that you will have to allocate more into recovery just to sustain your Skirmisher 5 pc. But I've never player Azuras, so not sure about stam management there.
Those two sets seem a bit at odds with each other, imo. Just thinkin' out loud here.

On Azura you're potentially missing out on extra 25% stamina recovery because you don't have access to the CP passive mooncalf. I only have 150 cp so I'm not ready for the cp campaigns but when I have 300+ cp I'll be switching over.

5 Hunding 3 Nightsilents on Bow
4 Hunding 5 Nightsilents on DW.
+ 3 Agility Set ( 2 rings 1 neckless).

You can switch around depending on your main weapon.

You get a littel less of a buff fron Nightsilents but the stealth mobility is great.

That's what I use currently but I use 2H instead for pvp because rally and I just use random blue robust jewellery because I'm only v3 right now.

I've decided to use 5 piece hundings, 1 Kena, 1 bloodspawn, 4 leki with jewellery and weapons. I don't have maelstrom weapons Or agility jewellery so that's why I'm using lekis as it's a very good 4 piece.
