Clever Alchemist / Stam Pvp Sets

Abhaya · May 2019

I’m asking if there are any more sets like clever alchemist that can be procced on one bar and still be used on the other bar. The only other one I can think of is armor master.

Also for anyone already reading, I’m currently running fortified brass and spriggans 6 medium 1 heavy on my stamsorc but am playing with the dps set to max dps, especially burst. I was thinking of swapping spriggans for clever alchemist and masters bow. The extra dps from masters bow outweigh the spriggan 2-4 set bonus for when CA is down and then the 15 second burst window should be enough to take most people down. Even more so if I can farm Balorgh to pair with it. In open world pvp I find myself harassing people with poison injection and light attacks while waiting for an opportunity to jump and drop everything I have so I’m thinking this build will be perfect for this kind of playstyle.

I’m open to any suggestions or advice; thanks for reading!

Trappings of invigoration for sustain, this is being buffed big time next patch to 11k stam every 45 seconds when you use a skill under 25% stam

DoT proc sets like Sheer Venom or Vipers Sting are also a consideration.

Also some stat proc sets can be only used on one bar like ravager or veiled heritance. Generally stuff with a longer cooldown fir that scheme. Werewolfhide is also an example.

I think Senches bite, technically can but it's a short window.

I like to play Clever Alchemist and Strenght of Automation, and if I ever do vDSA and get a masters bow I'll use it.

you can use CP to get penetration.

If you are looking for Weapon damage procs, I believe all these can proc on your back bar and still be active when you switch to your main bar (correct me if I am wrong):

Heavy sets:
Ravager
Armor of the Veiled Heritance
Armor of Truth
Seventh Legion Brute

Medium sets:
Briarheart
Senche's Bite
Way of Air

I was looking at this set and it honestly looks great. If it procs on CD its equal to about 488 stam regen (I know it won’t be proccing on CD) but it’s still an awesome burst regen. I think it also pairs with storc well since you can pair it with dark deal to keep your stam up instead of building into regen.

The only problem I have is that I get squished in medium armor without impreg or fortified brass, I don’t have enough burst without running at least 1 damage set, and with 6 medium and simple stam pots I have decent sustain but I am spamming the *** out of dark deal constantly, especially after the nerf. I’m talking about run in, burn through 40k stam, and then spend the time to cast like 6 dark deals in a row to recover.

Its okay in open world zerging because I can hide in the crowd to recover but any competent player in 1v1 knows how to bash and won’t give me the option to run in and out of combat at will. I’m trying really hard to get my sustain to a level where I can stay in combat more consistently without sacrificing burst or defense.

If you are concerned with your resistances consider the Nord race or protective jewelery.
