Best armor set for a stamblade

HrolleifTheUnbroken · November 2016

Right now I got to 5 trait crafting finally and I'm looking for the best armor set to craft. I'm looking for stamina and health as the biggest factors. I currently have a Ashen Grip (5piece) with Deaths Wind (4piece) combo with Sword Singers (3piece). What can you guys recommend I improve?

What is your goal in game? As in pvp/pve etc

Whenever you can get your hands on it I recommend Hunding's Rage 6 Traits or Night Mother Gaze 8 Traits or Twice Born Star 9 Traits Also depends on your Class an race like Stamina Night Khajiit for more Dps or Redguard DK sustain if you can give your character info race/class.

Well I mostly play pve, I'm not too into the whole PVP just yet.

PVE, unless your chasing Leaderboard times in Trials or Vet Dungeon Speed Runs, you can do just about anything that has bonuses that suit your build and playstyle.

Hundings Rage is a great all around 5 piece set that will pair up with just about anything, but you need 6 traits to make it yourself. Add in 3 Agility Jewelry, or, a Dropped 5 piece set that boosts your main weapon skill and you will be all set. You could even go with 2 5 piece sets and a a two piece Monster set if your running DW or Sword and Board.

In other words, unless your chasing the absolute max of the min max, there is no best set. There is just the sets you can acquire and use right now. Until you get to 6 Traits, you might want to farm zones for two 5 Piece sets, then do some Group Dungeons for Keys to get a Monster Set to flesh it out.

Alright, I'll hold on to what I'm rocking now and wait till I can craft hundings rage. Thanks!

I am going to use vampires kiss to help with health. It won't make me dps king, but I will enjoy playing a hell of a lot more. It adds health, health recovery and a healing buff, plus 5k heal everytime an enemy dies. It's a 5 trait. Going to combine it with hundings.

vampire kiss only heals you if you get killing blow just so you know.

Are you only wanting crafted sets?

There are plenty of overland drop sets that work pretty well and it's not too difficult to grab 5 pieces to complete a set if you're not too hung up on getting everything impen/divines. If you have a couple buddies you can also grind areas like normal fungal grotto 1 or crypt of hearts for BOP sets+jewelry of viper or leviathan.

Without knowing your level, experience, or if you belong to an active guild that is willing to help you acquire stuff, I don't want to assume you have access to the dungeon sets, but overland sets are accessible to everyone.

I'm currently running a x2 5-piece combo of viper and red mountain on my stamblade and it suits me just fine for PvE. I know there's a lot of better stuff out there, but it's what I could get basically on my own until I get my crafter to 9 traits.

In the end it's really up to you and what works best for your play style. If you play on XboxNA hit me up, GT same as forum tag and I'll see if I can't help you out.

As far as I'm aware, any party member getting the killing blow will also enable this 5 piece. I use it frequently when leveling stamina toons because they have no self healing.
