I get where you're coming from I think. I mean populations in PvP have been steadily dropping since around 1T but in defence of the people who choose to stay in Kyne I would have to be a no vote. Most people here run crafted sets and no monster sets obviously. No offence because you have completely destroyed me in Shor but Kyne offers a unique PvP experience where one has to rely on skill to get kills and stay alive. Broken gear sets and monster sets just don't offer that kind of gameplay.

Eternal hunt for stam classes, shacklebreaker for mag classes. There's your meta in kyne

Those are popular sets for players running alts in Kyne. But what about the other six to seven pieces of gear?

I've never worn either of those sets and have done just fine. In fact I'd go as far as to say that most people I've fought wearing Eternal Hunt were generally pretty easy to kill. I'd think that Hunding's is more "meta" than Eternal Hunt.

Hundings is a damage set where eternal hunt is a recovery set. Pair it with another damage set and you will get a lot utility.

gabriebe · December 2017

Julianos, Eternal Hunt, Shacklebreakers and Kagrenacs are what I see the most, yeah. I crafted Inner Axiom on my pet sorc to see how well it would do... not impressed. But I am too lazy to craft it again.

The other sets to complement, I don`t really know what people run since you can't craft jewelry. I have Morag Tong, Willpower and Beeskeeper jewelry saved atm, used to have Vicious Death but I cleaned it out recently. I usually buy a couple boxes from the regional vendor to go with the jewelry, then craft the missing pieces.

A_G_G_R_O · December 2017

Nah fam I don’t even play here but the meta should be, 2h hundings 4 piece hundings, 3 piece clever , sword shield clever..... 3 piece agility. Then dumpster kids

Why would you bother to run that in Kyne to kill a bunch of new people in green quest gear? I play in kyne and have on and off for the last 2.5 years. I can assure while a few people twink out their charcaters to min/max and upgrade weapons every two lvls, most don't. Most people in Kyne are newish with average to below average gear. How can I tell you ask? Because I'm killing 75% of people in kyne when I've outleveled my gear by ten lvls and have 1750 weapon damage fully buffed. Why would I or anyone seek to *OWN* new players and thus drive them away from pvp entirely? I and others already have the advantage of experience. There is very little point in completely ruining others pvp experience by out gearing them *because we can*
Not in kyne......Do I min/max to the best of my ability for vet..you betcha I do. In Kyne up untill lvl 40 or so when stats start to fall off dramatically my gear is, has been, and always will be blue. One crafted set one overland set to compliment accordingly for some semblance of balance.

Fur_like_snow · December 2017

I like spriggans, shackle breaker with two piece nights silence for stamina toons. Could get more damage with a different setup but I'm lazy.

kit_sune · December 2017

I just reuse hundings, night mothers, shacklebreaker, julianos, fury, transmutation. I also don't bring in my toons 36-40 because I hate vetting out and not having my class lines leveled

vamp_emily · December 2017

I personally don't like deleting characters. I would rather pay 10 dollars for the base game and create new characters. One thing I've been doing is creating 1 class per account. For example:

gueen.emily has 8 stam nbs
drama.queen has 8 mag nbs
dk.emily has 8 stam tanks

This allows me to try different races, different gear, and also allows me reuse all my gear.

Some set combinations I am going to try are:

Emily Bowtard ( stam nb )
5 marksman
5 morag tong

Emily Tryhard ( stam dk )
5 Warrior-Poet
5 Fortified Brass

Emily Pigtails ( mag nb )
5 War Maiden
5 Seducer

Oh by the way, I read a few of Serjustin19 posts. His posts are sooo long.

Serjustin19 is a damn hero and it’s our fault he won’t come to PC NA.....

No. I mean what about the other empty slots of gear. You claimed a single gear set to be meta, which is five pieces. There are 11 available slots at any time for gear so if what’s the other half of these supposed metas?

Hexquisite · December 2017

My Kyne RP Warden wears 5 Unfathomable of various levels and colors ( for the Crows), and 5 Innate Axiom, which looks like it could be a really great Hybrid set, and unbelievable that it is only 2 traits to craft. She will Prob try the Hargraven's Set as well.

ColoursYouHave · December 2017

Pretty much all my Stam builds run Hunding's+some Overland set (typically Spriggan's or Seventh Legion), and all my Mag builds run Kagrenac's+some overland set (stuff like Silks of the Sun on MagDK, Spinner's/Necropotence on Mag Sorc). I've also played a couple builds with Black Rose replacing Hunding's or Kagrenac's, though that was before the Black Rose and Heavy Armor nerfs so I don't know how effective that would be now. The nice thing about using the same handful of sets for pretty much all my characters is that I only need to obtain them once and then can just keep reusing them. Hunding's, Kagrenac's, and Black Rose are just good all around "base sets" for any character, IMO, then I can use Overland sets that more specifically synergize with my build.

Remember ground oils? Or when you would port somewhere with out a shrine and someone walked through your animation and it canceled the port? Or you could steal with impunity?

Rapids was sooo convenient for groups.

Lumsdenml · December 2017

Was running around in Kyne yesterday solo on my dusty magsorc. Really, I am just awful at the magsorc. Just refreshed my gear to current level and needed to go to Crops to pick up some jewelry. It was red, but saw one of the flags turning blue, so ran over and popped a proxy det., haunting curse, cced him, hit him with a couple frags and lighting splash and stood on his corpse to turn the flag. Got my jewelry and was on the flag applying enchants when I get attached and quickly dispatched by a stam beast AD. I rezed at crops and figured I would work on my magsorc "skills" with this guy when I was actually ready to fight. He was taking another flag when I got to him and set up my usual rotation.... He crit rushed and then I was dead. Going back through the death recap there were a list of usual suspects, dizzy swing, executioner, deep fissure, etc. Didn't see any of the animations. Rezed up and tried again, same thing. Looked a bit closer and saw Dizzy Swing, Poison, Deep Fissure, Crit Rush, executioner all within a second. Never saw the crit rush or the dizzy swing, and those are easy to pick up. Wondering if this is a connection/server issue. I think my ping was somewhere up around 250. If his was really low and mine was around there, could this cause the issues I was seeing?

Valen_Byte · December 2017

Have ran across a DC in the past few days that, dare I say it (cause I never have before) was hacking and or using CE. Starts with a Ji something. Ran into him in battlegrounds several times and then in KY. Suspicious dude is suspicious.

MajBludd · December 2017

It's a L2P issue, because I've been told several times that macros and CE can not or no longer be used in eso because of the outstanding anticheat detection they have in place.
