    I think paul_j is right. Twice-born is going to be the OP set with all the buffs to the mundus stones (except The Thief, which was nerfed). I just read through all the patch notes and most of the mundus's are getting buffs.
    Prices for custom Twice-Born armor pieces are going to skyrocket, and they're already high.

    I think it will be more useful like a lot of other things but maybe not bis
    This is a good move because it makes more sets and stones and even more stuff less useless

    It will be nice to use TBS (or any crafted set) again.

    I for one would love to actually use my character's crafting skills and go back to a 9 trait set and certain style, instead of farming mindless and ugly drop sets.

    Let's see.

    A lot of people are also wanting Eternal Hunt gear this patch, so it's not all bad.

The College of Illusion hides me and fuddles or pacifies my opponents. The College of Mysticism detects my object, reflects and dispels enemy spells, and makes good my escape. The key to a nightblade's success is avoidance, by spell or by stealth; with these skills, all things are possible."

    I don't see how it offers anything over current BiS sets. It would be nice for a crafted set to return into the meta, but it doesn't look like TBS will be it. The only reason it was ever meta was because of how it interacted with warhorn. And of course, even then, it was only BiS in trials.

    Nirnhoned staff front bar + precise back bar, TBS with shadow mundus + mage + new slimecraw+willpower = Anti sorc, batter down shield and switch bar and finish very quickly. Oh wait I've been using that for 2 years in pvp perfectly fine and better than anything else. TBS never left. Trials not BiS. Major+Minor slayers sets are just too powerful to pass up. Been using master architect + SOTH lately on magdk. Pulls over 40k just spamming ferocious leap for huge uptime.

    @ OP my thoughts exactly ;-)

    I am no min-maxer and have crafted TBS for some of my chars in the past. Still use them to this day and will be pretty happy to receive this buff.
    Everyone else can still run their "BIS-Meta" stuff all day long...i don't care :)

    As someone that refused to go for the dropped sets, and stuck to crafted all along, my stam blade has been running Hundings Rage, Night Mothers Gaze, agility jewellry.

    For overland content, its very strong, if not a little OP. I haven't run her in dungeons yet, not really sure I plan to.

    After this patch, my NB gets stronger. Its a win for crafted sets finally.

    Not sure if TBS will outperform Hunding's Rage or Julianos..... if you haven't crafted it yet, please wait until people have tested it all out!

    As of right now I am thinking Julianos and Hunding's Rage are better for pure DPS but TBS allows much more customization and a bit more survivability.

    I wouldn't say that TBS is going to be particulary good or bad.

    For stamina builds, both Two-Fanged Snake and Hunding's outperform it.

    Ugh, I hate TBS. The second mundus gets removed constantly for me, sometimes even when just moving around pieces even if the number of TBS set pieces remains at 5.

    And if you like to swap around full sets it's such a pain having to get the mundus buff every time. Wish they could find a way to remember your buff and reapply it, but considering how many times this set has been abused I doubt they can do it.

    Indeed, there will be more demand for the Twice Born Star set.
    Mundus Stones buffs will be more significant.

    I would like the option for a viable TBS Setup for PvE, at last my maxskilled crafters and all the styles I gathered would make some sense.

    Besides the buff to mundus stones there will be nerfs to favorite proc sets:

    •Grothdarr: Decreased the damage of this Item Set’s proc by 10%.
    •Ilambris: Decreased the damage of this Item Set’s proc by 10%.

    So maybe wearing TBS + another good 5-piece-set might make a difference, while dumping the Undaunted sets. Issue is that the second 5-piece-set should be a set that gives you the 5% Minor Slayer buff, because that buff is still very strong for PvE dps. Still leaves a slot for vMA staff.

    So it leaves TBS + Moondancer or TBS + Alkosh or TBS + Master Architect or TBS + War Machine.

    Waiting for the math experts :-)

    I'm looking forward to dusting off my old TBS set. It's looking like Shadow will be king now for DPS and even Apprentice is looking pretty nice. Plus the H, M, and S stats will be buffed by 13.3%. Pair that up with some crit chance gear (that's getting buffed 55%) and beef up elfborn a bit. Could be very powerful.

    Um, TBS (Apprentice + Lover) + Spinner's + Molag Helmet = OMFG...

    Yeah that's going to be the only setup to get me out of being a hybrid. I'm excited I didn't junk all of my previously crafted set and have all 3 elements + resto spinner's weapons.

    Why don't I have 300+ skill points? Because you skipped content along the way.

    Unless they fixed the issues of the second mundus dropping even if you use two TBS weapons, and all the other instances where you swap gear that is still TBS and the second mundus drops, I still won't use it. The only way around that would be if they let you carry portable mundus stones to redo the dropped mundus.
