Night Terror Set - Simple Request - Please Swap 2nd and 3rd Piece Bonuses

GrumpyDuckling · November 2017

Night Terror Set
(2 items) Adds 1096 Max Stamina
(3 items) Reduces the radius you can be detected while Sneaking by 2 meters. Reduces the cost of Sneak cost by 26%.
(4 items) Adds 1206 Max Health
(5 items) When you take melee damage, you deal 2000 Poison Damage to the attacker. This effect can occur once every 1 second.

The current 3 piece bonus (sneak radius reduction and reduced sneak cost) is wonderful in PVE for thieving/assassin role play, but fits in oddly with other sets because it requires 3 slots. Swapping the current 3 piece bonus with the 2 piece bonus (max stamina) would open up possibilities for more fun unique combinations without significantly altering balance:

5-5-2
Example:

5 piece set
5 piece set
2 piece Night Terror

5-2-2-3
Example:

5 piece set
2 piece Night Terror
2 piece Monster set
3 piece Weapon set

Swapping the 2nd and 3rd bonuses for Night Terror is a simple request that I think fellow thieves/assassins would enjoy in PVE. The proposed change doesn't create significant balance issues, and allows us more versatility for gearing up thieves and assassins. Please consider!

The more likely thing they would do is split this set into 2 sets, on with each special effect at the five piece.

Night Mother's Embrace is a 5 piece that does that already, and to make it more worthwhile they slapped an additional weapon damage on the 5th piece as well.

Another thing I just realized that would be awesome about swapping Night Terror 2 and 3 piece bonuses would be that I could drop vampirism from my character and use a 5 piece that gives sneak speed bonus so I could look normal again. I currently use vampirism for the sneak speed bonus, but if Night Terror sneak reduction was dropped to 2, then I could run 5 Nightmother's Embrace, 5 Night's Silence, and 2 Night Terror. Wow, now I really want this build.

what i am trying to tell you is that zos would more likely remove the 2 piece, as it doesn't fit into the standardization of set hey have in the game, this is the only set in the game, that i know, that has more then one special effect, so careful what you wish for.

Ah, I see what you're saying. Hopefully they gives us the opposite, and start adding more special effects in the 2, 3, and 4 piece slots of armor sets. Cyrodiil's Ward has a cool bonus in the 3 piece slot (15% more mount speed). It would be fun to see more sets have these kind of small non-combat bonuses.

I love Night Terror in PvP jewelry with sword and shield it’s grear with a heavy set up. Would hate if this set was nerfed in anyway it’s not BiS and no where near OP. It does make for fun combo. When you have them on the edge of Life and you are low on resources just block and watch them die.

One of my favorite out of the box sets. Please just swap the bonus don’t nerf a good set.

Please NO. My stealth bar has 5 Night Silence 5, 3 Night Terror - DW or 1+S.
Sets up main bar as 5 something good, 4 Night Silence, 2 Night Terror, 1 something.
Works nicely as a Stamina build.

I have a gear set for thieving that is 5 nights silence 5 night mothers embrace, 3 night terror, 1 velidreth. I have night terror weapons and night silence weapons so while on the backbar I move super fast, then on the front bar I have the benefit of the reduced radius for actually grabbing stuff.. or just killing things. I can pretty much walk right up to the face of mobs before they detect me XD
