Great suggestion to bind T to ultimate, just remember to make sure you re-bind the quest cycle key otherwise the death recap becomes unbound. See this conversation for details:

Recommending 5 Kagrenacs to beginners -- for what kind of gameplay?

Recommending 6-8 trait crafted sets -- how do you envision them getting them?

Firstly - thanks for reading and thanks for asking:

I forgot that I'm going to have to justify many things but believe me I am not married to any of the points to such an extent that I will not gladly update it with better info or protocol if any comes to light after interrogation by collective knowledge of the the community.

The set in question:

Kagrenac's Hope
LEVEL 50 - CP 160
Type Craftable
Set bonus
(2 items) Adds 1096 Maximum Magicka
(3 items) Adds 129 Magicka Recovery
(4 items) Adds 1206 Maximum Health
(5 items) Adds 222 Spell Damage & Decreases the time it takes to resurrect an ally by 25%. When you successfully resurrect an ally, you restore 1720 Magicka.

I prefer beginners, IE level 10-160, WEARING Kag's with a TRAINING trait for the following reasons:

1) It's craftable so armour can be crafted in it's ideal armor traits for a light armor user (Heavy chest, Med Hands and the rest light)
2) It's core bonuses boost all the stats that are core to a magicka user and especially 2 things that a new (non CP) player encounters a lot low health, dead buddies and being out of magicka.
3) The 6-8 trait sets are crafted for them by a crafter within the guild.
4) The kind of gameplay is anything a newbie would get up to level to 160. (Had a newbie do vCoA1 for his IG MS and died quite a bit, afterward I asked him what gear he was running. Turned out he was playing with a white level 30 set I had crafted for him waaay back. lol)
5) The idea behind your first level 10 set is that you run it to about level 30 after which they supply the matts to upgrade the set.
6) By this time the new player will have researched at least 2-3 traits and they will be able to craft their own set using
5pc Initiate Axiom (especially relevant for sorc who use mundo class skills)
5pc Seducer
2pc Magicka jewelry set from any dolmen

Please see POINT 9 in the guide:

9. CRAFT YOUR OWN GEAR EARLY ON!

_____RESEARCH THE RIGHT THINGS_____

Follow these suggestions and you will be able to craft a 2 full bonus sets within one week! You need to research gear traits to craft your own gear. Set stations unlock according to the amount of traits you have researched per item.

IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU DO NOT JUST RESEARCH ANY RANDOM AVAILABLE ITEM.

_____MAGICA USERS_____

Research TRAINING & DIVINE on all LIGHT GEAR FIRST
Research INFUSED & SHARPENED & NIRHONED on their LIGHTNING & FLAME STAFF First
Research TRAINING, DIVINE & INFUSED on HEAVY CHEST; HEAD & LEGS GEAR FIRST

_____FULL CRAFTABLE SETS BY A NEW PLAYER_____
Research items either picked up, bought or crafted by fellow guildies.

_____MAGICA CHARACTER (Low traits required) _____

Five piece INITIATE AXIOM (2 trait set)
- Lightning Staff (infused trait with flame glyph)
- Flame Staff (infused trait with Magic Damage/Magica restore glyph)
- Heavy Chest (training trait with Max Magica glyph)
- Heavy Legs (training trait with Max Magica glyph) (or head or shoulders or feet)
- Light Arms (training trait with Max Magica glyph)

Note: we use 5L 2H until the player has levelled to the first undaunted passive where wearing 5/1/1 becomes beneficial.

Five piece ARMOR OF THE SEDUCER (3 trait set)
- Light Head (training trait with Max Magica glyph)
- Light Shoulders (training trait with Max Magica glyph)
- Light Waist (training trait with Max Magica glyph)
- Light Feet (training trait with Max Magica glyph)
- Necklace in Arcane (Arcane trait with Spell damage glyph)

Two Withered hand rings from Alik'r dolmens
OR
Two Thorugs Pact crafted rings (Spell damage glyph) if you have a crafter available

Rather long winded but I attempted to answer as fully as possible to the pondering that went into the balance of the set with the needs of the newbie. I would glady welcome other options or opinions.

Cheers
Marius

I dont necessarily think he was asking why Kags, but how are they going to get Kag's. It's 8 trait and you have to do the entire Fighter's guild line to unlock the Earth Forge. The Fighter's guild line isn't necessarily the hard part but grinding 8 traits on 5 pieces of gear is a good month minimum of researching with fully unlocked passives. And if you want to get a guildy to make it , it is not cheap for a newcomer.

You will see the alternate is ColdHarbors Favourite, so the point is mute.

Also to be more specific, there is a difference in the sets you can make for yourself as a new player and sets a full 9 trait crafter can craft for you. Kag tables are not uncommon in guild homes.

Use two sets of square brackets [] around the word spoiler in the first set in front of the first stuff you need to hide; and the word /spoiler (yes, with the forward slash in front) in the second set of brackets at the end of the stuff you need to hide.

Yeah, that's a crap explanation, because you can't just "example" it as the forum software "does" what you post.... So if I did the actual.... you wouldn't see anything.

Now, that said, at the very bottom of the posting pane, you can see "You can use BBCode in your post." BBCode within that statement is a link. Click on it, and you will probably see a better explanation of how to spoiler something.

Finally came up with the idea to put everything in spoilers as a seperate post especially for mobile users. Sorry it took a while but thays just how I process, slow and with my best editing many times after my OP.

marius_buys · January 2020

The section on BIS training gear needs an update

I currently use 5 New Moon Accelyte, 5 Ancient Dragonguard and either
2 Mechanical Aquity for stamina
or
2 Thorugs Pact for Magica

If the player is very new in MMO I drop NMA for Cold Harbors Favourite

What do you use?
Speaking specifically to guild crafters helping new players.

marius_buys · January 2020

Improved the wording of section 2

_____ FORTH CHOICE_____

JOIN THE THREE MAIN IN-GAME GUILDS
(As well as the Psijic Order if you own Summerset)
The guilds are faction related and are located in different towns depending on the faction.

ALDMERI DOMINION
At VUKELGUARD in AURIDON
jointhe Fighters guild, Mages guild and Undaunted guild.
Turuk Redclaws can be found upstairs in the Salted Wings Tavern

DAGGERFALL COVENANT
At DAGGERFALL in GLENUMBRA
join the the Fighters guild, Mages guild and Undaunted guild.
Mighty Mordra can be found downstairs in The Rosy Lion

EBONHEART PACT
At DAVON'S WATCH in STONEFALLS
join the Fighters guild, Mages guild and Undaunted guild
Kailstig the Axe can be found sitting just inside The Fish Stink Tavern

JOIN A PLAYERS GUILD...
with a voice channel for advice, crafted gear and general help. Use guild finder to search.

... AND ASK FOR A GUILDIE TO MAKE YOU TRAINING GEAR (YOU MUST PROVIDE THE MATERIAL)
It's just good form to provide the materials which you can just pick up as ore (for metal items), wood (for bows & staves) or clothing plants (for light & medium armor) and jewelry.
If the crafter is REALLY nice he will craft you jewelry. The basic rule of thumb is to provide 20 raw items for each white and un-glyphed crafted piece.

Someone has a lot of time on their hands. So do you sit arround all-day thinking about this stuff? And then writing about it? This is perfect for people who can't figure out the game. Thankfully I was able to figure out the game by simply playing it.
