Hi,

When you want a full set of armors and weapons, are you waiting to be Max lvl or you get different armor pieces at different lvl?

Thx

    When I collect a set of gear, I only get max-level pieces for my max level characters. It is not worth the effort/resources to upgrade gear that you will out-level.
    The generally amicable yet sporadically salty magplar that may or may not have 1vXed you in Sotha Sil. Who knows?

    Ok thx. I'm only lvl 22, so its more about research and deconstruct right?

    I got some lvl 50 champion 120-130 items in Imperial city. Should I research them for the divinity trait?

    If you're talking about crafting, before this last update I had crafted sets in my bank for different levels since getting low-level dropped sets while playing normally happened just too infrequently.

    With the latest update that keeps throwing huge quantities of zone-specific sets at you, there's hardly a need to craft low level sets - especially since the bolstering to CP160 mechanics now happens everywhere and you're penalized for having armor and weapons that are a lot lower than your true level (that's what the new 4 stars on the top part of the character panel is trying to tell you) - just keep replacing with level-appropriate dropped item sets and you'll always be running around with build-appropriate (magicka, stamina or tanking) set bonuses close to your level.

    About the only items worth keeping in your bank "just in case" is CP160 gear with good traits - everything else is expendable. Use for research or deconstruct for materials (and leveling your crafting) to your hearts content... your bank will also be glad you did.

    Even if this is your first character, you'll go from 0 to 160CP very quickly just questing and playing the game normally (even quicker if you grind with +XP potions) and with One Tamriel you'll get tons of drops along the way just like you did from 1-50.
