What set you guys directly think about when you have to choose one set to build your ice warden with?

50% health and 50% points spent in magicka. (Off tank build)

    The main tank will almost certainly be running Yolo (Yolnakriin), but some great off tank sets are, of course, Powerful Assault (assuming a healer isn't already running it), Roar of Alkosh, if the group has a number of stamina toons, Crimson Oath Rive is a great set. Olorime could even be used as a little more niche off tank role, or heck even Worm Raiment if the group is mostly Magicka.

    Lots of great options. However, a lot depends on what the MT is running, and the healers.

    If I absolutely had to pick one set above all, Powerful Assault. Really good support set for trials.

    Greetings,

    This thread has been moved to the Players Helping Players section, as it is better suited there.

    Thematically fitting but trial-wise this would be awful.

    Usually I see OT in Saxhleel/PA but it depends on the group, just collect the common OT sets used in your guild or if you’re pugging I guess just go for Sax/PA. I don’t know what monster set OTs use nowadays.

    If you mean off tank as in half DPS half Tank then you’d be getting different answers. I don’t know how possible a DPS/Tank hybrid is but I guess depends on what you’re doing.

    Frozen Watcher is a fun set for dungeon tanking. Nunatak might be one of the biggest bait-and-switch tank sets out there as it just doesn't work they way its supposed to.

    For trials, I usually use the Saxheel/PA combo if the healer is not running PA. If the healer is wearing PA, than Crimson Oath. Pearlescent can be a good alternative for Saxheel.
