Gear and Item Set Info
For Crafters:
I personally like using gear I craft myself.
I use a helm (heavy armor head), robe (light armor chest), pauldron (heavy armor shoulder), girdle (heavy armor waist), guards (medium armor legs), and sabatons (heavy armor feet).
I use Whitestrake's Rebelion (WR) and Vimpire's Kiss (VK). To keep it simple, I made all of my heavy armor WR and my light armor, medium armor, and weapons VK. Traits and enchantments are up to you but if you want to know what I use, I use flame enchants on my weapons, health on my heavy armor and shield, stamina on my meidium, and magicka on my light. As for traits, I recomend, for armor, Impenetrable, Reinforced, Infused, or Nirnhoned and for weapons (if you switch destruction staff with healing staff) Powered, Precise, Infused, Defending, Sharpened, or Nirnhoned. I'm at a disadvantage with jewelry as I currently use a Ring of Mara to help my friend level.
General Info
DO NOT COPY THIS BUILD EXACTLY
The purpose of me posting this build is to show you what I do and how I personally like to play the game. Experiment, pick and choose, find something that suits your personal play style.
Substitutions
- In this build, you can change destruction staff to restoration and instead of blockade, use either Regeneration, Healing Springs, or Steadfast Ward.
- The reason Puncture is up there instead of one of its morphs is because both of its morphs are really good. I use Pierce Armor because I have a group of regulars that will practically melt our enemies. If DPS in your group is high, I suggest following suit. But if your group tends to have long drawn out battles, then perhapsRansack will be better for you as it increases your resistance.
- If you are not a werewolf, then Pack Leader is out of the question for you. I suggest either Spell Wall or Magma Armor (you choose which morph)
