If you wish, you may visit the Community Project set bonus think tank thread by @dpencil1 in the link below.

But anyway, if you are reading this (In which I assume you are) Then welcome to the Semi-Official Discussion for "Creating your own Armor Set." (or even a monster set.)

(feel free to bookmark this for reference or for quicker traversal between threads.)

Before Creating an armor set or reposting an old Armor/Monster set from a similar discussion, there are a couple of rules to go by. These rules ensure that, If an Armor or Monster Set is good enough & possibly seen as a balanced set, they "could" be put into the Elder Scrolls Online Tamriel Unlimited by Zenimax. (The rules will be subject to change based on the Developers in-game workings & other such changes through base patches.)

The Created Set Can either be a 5-Piece Armor set or a 2-Piece Monster set.
The Created Set can be orientated for PvE content, Pvp, Endgame, etc. (Make sure you write it in as you post your creations.)
The created set must be valued to Legendary Quality, Champion Level 160.
The created set must be within the games technological parameters, Max Health is limited to 1206, Max Magicka & Max Stamina is limited to 1096, weapon damage, spell damage, Health, Magicka & Stamina Recovery is limited to 129, Weapon & Spell Critical is limited to 883 & vice versa. feel free to check the list of armor sets in the ESO Fextralife wiki for possible effects to add to your creation. (just don't always take their info to heart, trust me...)
Sets must be either Light, Medium or Heavy respectively.
The Sets Created must be labeled as either "Craftable" or "Droppable".
(Optional) The sets created must have a particular style to match or even resemble, examples include Khajiit, Breton, Hollowjack, Etc. (Not all styles will be listed to keep this thread short & possibly simple.)
Some created armor/monster sets can have up to 2 different effects on acquiring & wearing a certain amount, one such example includes the Rattlecage set which, while wearing all 5 pieces, grants 100 Spell damage & major sorcery (20% spell damage). another example includes the Morrowind set known as the Shacklebreaker which grants both magicka & stamina recovery on wearing 4 pieces & granting extra max magicka & max stamina on wearing 5 pieces.

Now without further ado, let us breath life into some sets & here is my idea to get you folks started.

Rajhin's Shadow
Style: Dro M'Athra
Armor Type: Medium Armor (Droppable)
Orientation: PvE (Semi-Non-combat bonuses)
Set type: 5-Piece Set

(2) adds 1206 Max Health
(3) Reduces the Radius you can be detected while sneaking by 2 Meters.
(3) Decrease the detection radius of Witnesses & Guards by 10%, Witnesses are thus less likely to notice crimes while guards won't attempt to apprehend until they get closer.
(4) Adds 129 Stamina and Magicka Recovery.
(5) Reduces the Radius you can be detected by 3 Meters. While Hidden, Increases your Chance to Successfully Pickpocket by 20% & Improves your chances of Forcing Locks by 5%.

A few good sets came up in the comments & if they are good enough, I will list them here & if there are missing details or they need a bit of a rework, I will rework them a fair bit but your forum names will be featured alongside them so that others will know where the idea originated.

(4) adds 129 spell damage
(5) when you deal elemental damage , you have 20% chance to summon a ice/storm/fire atronach facsimile( depend of the damage who proc the set ) they deal X damage during X second , and they explode at the end dealing X damage to nearby ennemies, one atronach per proc , X second cooldown.

Edit : Thank ! and yes " fire atronach fascimile " why ? Because this would be awesome ... in the hall of fabrication the last boss can litteraly copy past all the sorc/dk abilities ect... and create fascimile ,this would be awesome to see the same with the atronachs.

Those two aren't a bad idea but you forgot a few details (as did a few other comments.) but I'll put them in a list with a few "Modifications" text wise.

But otherwise, keep the ideas coming folks, a few good ones but remember to include every vital detail in accordance to the thread rules.
