Reworking Sets for Next Years Q1 Update

With Horns of the Reach, traits and mundus stones got a rebalance (still not perfect but definitely much better than before) and item set values were tweaked to promote more diversity in builds. In Clockwork City they are working on re-balancing the Masters and VMA weapon sets and introducing the Asylum weapons.

I think next year’s Q1 update would be a perfect opportunity to rework so many of the underused sets in the game.

There are so many 5 pc, 3 pc, and monster sets that almost no one uses because they are just flat out bad compared to others. For example: the Wise Mage set has nearly the same stats as Infallible Aether except no minor slayer and no heavy attack bonus. There is no reason to ever run Wise Mage, especially since they drop in the same area and you are just as likely to get one as the other. Maybe if Wise Mage was an overland drop that would make sense.

I think it would be cool to get the community involved with it too and have some kind of submission event for ideas.

What do you guys think? Q1 for set reworking?

    I think a Q2 set reworking would be better since it will be a major release.

    I just want crafted sets adjusted give hunding 400 wep dmg to be comparable to virtually every other wep dmg buffing set. Remove magicka and spell dmg from some few remaining medium armor sets not even hubrods use them. Smart loot needs a tweak also no more stamina sets for staves..

    @Mettaricana I think the reason it is only 300 is that it applies to everything related to weapon damage. Whereas the specialized sets that give 400 and 450 only apply to certain things. I think it is pretty fair.

    No it only works on physical damage so not disease or poison which also scale off weapon damage and stamina.

    Second chapter will be coming in Q2 as well. Morrowind included a massive amount of balance changes so it can be expected that the next chapter will include some as well.
