new set combinations after summerset

xbobx · April 2018

Being that most will be able to do 2 5 5, what are some new combos and please include non trial stuff since many of us cant do that content

Morgul667 · April 2018

Hunding / Mechanical Acuity

Shackle Breacker / Mechanical acuity

Twice born star / something

xbobx · April 2018

i am thinking acuity and briarhart for solo

oMrRust · April 2018

Probably will still use trial gear jewlery.

Savos_Saren · April 2018

StamBlade: Shackle, Innate Axiom

And I'm theorycrafting for a hybrid DK:

Shacklebreaker, Pelinal's Aptitude, Domihaus. Medium Armor, all stamina and weapon enchants on jewelry... but still using Burning Embers and Flame lash.

TBS (Warrior+Thief) + Hundings + Stormfist was my first thought.

Armor Master + Fortified Brass (Mag Tank, using Harness Magicka, 5 Light - 1 Heavy - 1 Medium)

Wait for PTS update, we may have useful new sets.

5 BSW 5 SUN 2 Slime Claw for my Solo pve Dk

Skander · April 2018

Everything on staves. Lieterally.
Sorcs that can run monster sets, that's scary

CyborgPlatypus · April 2018

I have to decide on one for my healer, never thought about it before.

I think you’d still come out ahead in HP with Warrior Poet + Fortified Brass. Resistances would be better as you’ve proposed.

The play testers at ZOS said the new sets are pretty weak. Many new sets are damage proc sets which cannot crit so they tend to be weaker in buffed groups settings. Things might change on PTS tho.

First of it's a suboptimal combo bc acuity negates the crit boni from bh, and secondly you can run this combo on live already.

Camb0Sl1ce · April 2018

From a pve non-pet sorc rotation, curious how acuity/elegance/ilambris will be. With light and heavy attacks scaling with max stat and spell damage could be interesting. Idk if it will beat out acuity/moondancer/asylum inferno front bar/ilambris but worth testing I suppose.

Depends on how well they scale with max resources. And what was that with Imbue Weapons? Depends how much it costs it might become a spam replacement for e.g. stam sorcs.

this part i don't quite fully understand.

does this mean i could go dual wield on my magblade and still do have decent damage with light and heavy attacks?

the reason i ask is i hate dual staffing on magblade, it doesn't feel right and after patch with the burst heal now i may go concealed weapon over sap because sap is a spamable that doesn't feel right also

Checkmath · April 2018

No dual wield will not grant you good weaving damage, since it is a stamina weapon, so its damage is based by weapon damage and stamina. But staves at the moment dont scale as good as stamina weapons. Thats why magicka toons will be top notch in summerset, because their weaving with staves will deal more damage than now.

xbobx · April 2018

darn. trying so hard to like magblade but just cant

Checkmath · April 2018

Dual wield magicka nbs (backbar msa destro) are freaking strong mate and can get very high parses

Shimmer mentioned one that turned aoes into heals, which could be gamechanging on some builds.

laksikus · April 2018

Pelinal + clever Alchemist + kena

Fixed that a little. xD
