Hello I recently started playing and now I am level 50 and going through the champion levels. There's one thing I don't understand. Why do I need to have 1 piece heavy and 1 piece medium? I am a magicka sorcerer, high elf. I get that heavy piece gets me 2% more health but isn't 2 piece other light set is better for me? I could get spell critical or extra magicka or magicka recovery. But all builds I've ever seen has 1 piece heavy and 1 piece medium. And medium all the builds don't have any skills on medium armor as well. So am I missing something here?

✭There is a passive from the Undaunted skill line that increases max stats for having your armour weight like that

I see and is that worth more than having an extra set like for instance max magicka or spell crit or spell damage?0 -

✭✭✭✭✭It depends on the build. If this is your very first character, I'd be inclined to say go with 5 light and 2 heavy for the extra defense and health you'll get from the 2 heavy pieces. This will be especially useful with low champion points as you'll be lighter on health than someone with a few hundred already.1 -

✭✭✭✭✭In addition to the Undaunted passive, I always level a character wearing at least one piece of the armor types they won't use. That way if I suddenly decide later make them wear a different type of armor they dont have to level it up from scratch, like if I make my medium armor wearing stam sorc a tank for an event and they need to wear heavy armor.1 -

✭✭✭✭Yeah, there are a few passives in the other armor lines, too, that give you a bonus for wearing even one piece, those are nice to have. And none of the passives require that you have all 7 the same, so I like to branch out and get those other passives as well.1
