I love the set as a mage but the damage is so low because it based on Health and not magicka/stamina

    I have no idea. But I'd venture to guess that there would be more tanks experimenting with it than DPS. Damage scale of the 5pc bonus aside, the 2,3,4 bonuses being split 3 ways don't do anythinig for DPS either.

    Guess that's true, I just like the visual effect and idea of sapping health from a target but underwhelming that does small damage.

    I use it for tanking lol. It's great when I need more survivability. I've used it to duo Vet dungeons. Probably useful for Infinite Archive too (haven't tried it).

    I don't know if pairing it with leeching plate (which has health buffs and is BC's alter ego for taking damage) might help? Outside tanking, that combination comes in useful for eg soloing dungeons with particularly tricky / otherwise unsoloable boss mechanics.

    Bahraha's Curse paired with either Leeching Plate or Syvarra's Scales is great for a hybrid tank/DPS build. Very efficient for doing random normal dungeons where you don't need any of the serious tanking sets and it's more useful to add to the group DPS than to go pure tank. You can do all the tanking that you need to do for a normal dungeon (grouping stuff together to be nuked down more easily) while contributing decently to burning stuff down.

    As a primarily PvE player, I've also found that setup to be decently effective in PvP. With a setup like that, even though I'm bad at PvP, I've managed to fight off or kill about 80% or more of the people that have tried to gank me when I was running around questing in Imperial City or whatever. If I'm solo in that setup and I run into a group of enemy players I still usually get rolled over, but if I'm solo and outnumbered I expect to die regardless of what I'm wearing lol

    True but not lot of Necro themed sets. Running Nerineth and Caalurion's legacy

    How well would Crimson Twilight work with some of the sets mentioned, and which set would it be the best with?

    Me. It's a very casual set, so I use it when I play very casually or for funsies and memes.
