Useful Trial - Dungeon Sets

Typeous · September 2016

If we think about end game builds for any class, which sets are good in trials/dungeons? Are there any list for them?

For example, Vicious Orphidant set from SO for stam nb, Velidreth Mask from CoS etc.

Can u help me with that? I always confused about gears which i dropped from dung./trials.

I'm not sure of any lists but I can try to outline some stuff below with regards to magicka classes (I don't know much about stam other than vicious ophidian is phenomenal, skoria is great on dot-builds, blood spawn (from spindleclutch) gives tanks good ultimate generation, lord warden dusk can give good resistances for group members (from ICP), velidreth for dps is great, alkosh from MoL gives good group utility and is for tanks I believe?).
DPS
Monster Sets:

Nerieneth works great when weaving staff attacks with force pulse (sorcs, nbs) drops from Crypt of Hearts
Skoria works well with dot builds like mdks and templars, drops from City of Ash
Kena is a good option for overloading on a sorc, pairs well with elegance set too, but I think it's too hard on resources when used with other classes

Other sets:

Infallible aether, drops from sanctum
Scathing mage, drops from ICP
Elegance set, probably best for sorcs with overload, but mdks using lightning staff for aoe and the heavy attack buff molten armaments makes it pull pretty solid dps (this may change with the lightning staff nerf), drops from sanctum

Healing

Worm's Raiment is awesome (only one healer should wear this in trials), drops from MoL
Twilight's remedy is also good and from Maw
Spell power cure, the healing set, drops from WGT

For dps and in general, yes. Especially for something like scathing mage (it's based off crits). Infused on bigger pieces would do just fine though, imo, if that's what you end up getting. Right now I have infused on some big, divines on small just because that's what I got for drops and am too lazy to farm for all divines lol.

For healing I would stick with divines to pump up crit heals and damage. For tanking, sturdy is a solid choice, infused if you want to do all tri-glyphs. But again I spend 99% of my time on a magicka nb dps lol.

For pvp this is different obviously as almost every trait can be viable.

For weapons as a dps, go with sharpened.

As @Stoopid_Nwah already said, those above are good sets (among many others) for building your stam/mag DD or healer role.

But, if we are talking about sets that are useful for trials particularly, then you should consider these sets:

Tank
Tava's Favor (BoE crafted) - a great set for any tank, you need to have as close to 100% uptime of Aggressive Warhorn in trials
Ebon Armory (currently BoE, will become BoP found in CoH)- great help for veteran trials, you need to have this on your tank, especially if you run with two tanks, the offtank can equip this.
Bloodspawn (Spindleclutch Undaunted set) - also a great set for the ultimate generation and additional resistances
Lord Warden (Imperial City Prison Undaunted set) - a great set for your offtank in veteran trials
Roar of Alkosh (BoP Maw of Lorkhaj) - not my personal favorite for a tank, but if there is no DD wearing this, then one tank should, it is a great set
Footman's Fortune (BoE Dragonstar Arena, will become BoP) - overall good tank set
Akaviri Dragonguard (BoE, will be in Eastmarch) - great tanking set
Hircine's Veneer (BoE, will become BoP Selene's Web) - would not really recommend, but if you run a mostly stam trial group, and the main tank already has Ebon, this is a good set for the offtank

Damage Dealers
Twice Born Star (BoE crafed) - a great overall DPS set, for both stam and mag
Vicious Serpent (BoP Craglorn trials) - a great DPS set with sustain for stam users
Night Mother's Gaze (BoE crafted) - a great stam set to have if you have mainly stamina users in your trial group
Sunderflame (BoP City of Ash) - a great stam set for raising the overall DPS of the group, can also be worn by the offtank
Infallible Mage (BoP Craglorn trials) - a great mag DD set that also buffs the overall DPS of your trial group
Velidreth (BoP Cradle of Shadows) - a great stam Monster set
There are many more sets for damage dealers, if a set works in small groups, it will most likely work in trials too.

Healers
I gotta emphasize the three sets @Stoopid_Nwah said:
Spell Power Cure (BoP White Gold Tower) - a must have for both healers in the trial
Worm's Rainment (BoE, will become BoP Vault of Madness) - a must have for one of the healers
Twilight's Remedy (BoP Maw of Lorkhaj) - awesome set, a must have for the second healer
