Apparently this is a thing on pre PTS and will start with just three but pretty sure it's not stopping there.

Surprised no one is talking about it, probably cause it's some pretty new piece of info but still what's your general thoughts about new ways of getting monster sets starting with IC?

    I'm okay with that. Not excited, just okay... :D
    With some yet unknown (but most likely bad) changes to how proc sets function next update, I might not be interested in any monster sets at all (even in sets which we currently have in game) anymore.

    One of these set will probably be SOOO useful (the "stamina" one). It makes a fear AOE whenever you break free, and add 33 WD and SD per ennemies hit , up to 6 stack (Source (it's in french)) for 7 seconds

    Ohh that's a nice source! Not sure they were allowed to go into that much detail yet considering the info we got from other people who got to test it but... Now that the secret is out we might as well talk about it.
    That Frost damage set is actually amazing!

    @ESO_Nightingale Check that out.
    Increases your Ice skill damage by 6%. Increases your damage done against frozen targets by 4%. Increases your damage done against enemies affected by Minor Friability by 2%.
    Friability is probably Brittle. The numbers are probably going to change, but damn that looks like an amazing frost damage set!

    It's nice to have a Frost Mage set but those numbers are way too low.

    Consider something like Medusa or Mother's Sorrow and the insane amount of Critical Damage that's available in organized groups. There's no reason whatsoever to choose this set over them. Those sets also buff all of your damage sources whereas Frost Damage is restricted to a relatively modest % of overall damage even on a Warden.

    Frost Mage sets (really any pure elemental sets) are also too rare to let this chance pass us by and to risk getting stuck with yet another mediocre niche set. So we need to lobby hard to see that it's improved!

    The numbers are all subject to change still, obviously. But I'm counting an additional +12% damage done in just one set. And unlike the 15% from Kinras, this actually stacks with other buffs! It's a solid damage set if you ask me.

    IC is probably the most dead zone in the game, it's a good move I think to breathe some life back into it outside of events or people farming for outfits.

    I'd hope it's coming along later, would definitely bring more life into the zone.

    That's actually sounds pretty good. Will check out other sources for precise info, Ty!

    Oh yeah I've seen it. Provided it gets to live as remotely powerful as this, our set problem is mostly fixed. Bar a frost monster helmet. What we could use right now is a type change for deep fissure to deal frost damage. We've asked for it for a while. And especially now where it looks like we have a great set, our main defining damage skill dealing magic damage really doesn't make sense anymore especially because glacial presence wants us to have as much uptime on chilled as possible for bonus critical damage. Just having winter's revenge isn't enough especially in pvp where arctic's chance is pretty slim

    So what drops the IC monster sets? Or are they bought with keys or stones?

    Its probably quite difficult to introduce 9 new monster sets that are useful but not overpowered. At least they're adding something to IC, in the future they will most likely add more IC monster sets for the remaining bosses.

    I'm curious to see how they will be acquired.
    I think for the sake of ic seeing some action they should just drop from bosses and not be telvar purchasable.

    Yes, also curious how we would get those sets.
    Maybe the head from the boss and the shoulder from the Telvar vendor?

    Hope they'll not forget the sewers in a process, example given Molag Bal simulacrum could use some love outside of celebrations.
