    No, it's on plenty of set pieces (as is Intricate) that drop from quests.

    Worst trait is probably Training followed by Prosperous which is useless on cp160 sets that shouldn't even drop in the first place.

    Training and prosperous has its place, on crafted gear, perhaps also for low level drops.

    Training is only useless for people who don't know how to use it.

    For the rest of us, training is very much of use ...

    The additional XP from training gear does not stop at level 50.

    7 purple pieces of the CP160 Trainee set = +70% XP from kills

    I leave it up to you to figure out the use for that on CP characters ...

    When you have max cp, the training trait is useless. Prosperous is useless as well, particularly once you have lots of gold, there really is no justification for these traits existed on dropped sets.

    Well, you're both wrong inasmuch as you're both being deceitful and misleading to flog your pet cause. Training is in fact useless post CP cap, currently 600, and most assuredly shouldn't be on anything that, by using it, would preclude you from getting the reward e.g. vMA.

    One of you is better than this spreading of misinformation. One of you should have been banned for pointless, constant, attention seeking spam with no redeeming value whatsoever in their first 24 hours on these forums.

    Training on cp160 gear is useful to a cp180 character, considering how often people kick low cp people from groups.

    Also, if you have 600 champ points and know that the cap is being raised to 630 then training gear is useful in preparing you for when that happens.

    So... @runagate is mistaken.

    Personally I think they should remove training from all gear except the Trainee. That way people can still learn the trait and crafted gear will be more desirable for grinding gear.

    Likewise prosperous should be reworked to ADD gold to all "owned" containers and be renamed to "skulking" or something. And by add I mean every container has a few gold per piece. Should only drop on certain gear sets (dark stride, night mother, etc)

    Well fitted should also reduce cost of sneaking.

    Sharpened should be slightly nerfed to bring it's damage increase inline with precise.

    Defending should be slightly nerfed to match the sharp nerf. Shields should give more armour than a defending staff anyway.

    Nirn weapons should be buffed to bring their damage up to where sharp is right now.

    Ornate is bad on set drops :( Training & Prosperous are just as bad though on dropped items.

    I am at CP703 & I've never used training trait. Catching up to the CP cap has always been a breeze & there is just no need to gimp your build with training traits. I support other players using it, if that's what they want but IMO it should only come as a craftable trait... not on CP160 dropped items. Same goes for Prosperous... I'm sure a very small amount of players do use it but to the vast majority it's just decon fodder. It's so disappointing getting either of these junk traits on good set pieces, especially monster sets.

    This could be said for ANY trait that you don't personally use... but Impenetrable is useless in PvE since enemies don't 'crit', and that's the whole point of Impenetrable.

    No, it can't. In PVE, Impen reduces durability damage to gear by 50%.

    You obviously don't talk to people in-game much. I know quite a few people that are past CP600 and still slap on 7 or 9 pieces of Trainee gear when they go grinding.

    Not everyone is convinced that CP600 will be the max cap for the rest of time ...

    LOL. How many players will I need to talk to before I find ONE that uses Training or Prosperous on dropped set items? In my whole time playing since the training & prosperous traits were introduced, I have not seen one player that wanted these traits & way more often it's players groaning about getting drops with training or prosperous. It is very common in voice chat for players to offer up some set piece like "hey anyone want BSW robe training?" & everyone just laughs & tells them to decon it & get it out of them game!

    Training is very very good for CP farming. I know of a few who use full prosperous for gold grinding (e.g. for the golden rings at the Golden) with apparent success.

    These traits are actually useful, just not on any of the drop sets at CP 160.
