Complete list of the best Sets in Elder Scrolls Online for each character class

Introduction

Equipping your character with proper items is an essential part of the Elder Scrolls Online gameplay. The game offers a vast quantity of different Items - One and Two-Handed Weapons, Light, Medium, and Heavy Armors, Jewelry, and so on. A lot of those Items are a part of special Sets that grant various powerful bonuses based on the number of corresponding Set's Items equipped. These Set Bonuses are too good to pass up, and it is always better to wear a Set, than normal items, even if the Set is of lower quality - Set Bonuses more than make up for potential power loses.

And hard to answer with certainty without access to the creation kit. But i think your best bet is the cheat room mod. In the cheat room is a chest called 'other' with a bunch of items called 'ring equip slot 30 - head' (or 31 - hair, 32 - body, 33 - hands, etc) all the way up to ring equip slot 60 - unnamed and ring equip slot 61 - FX01. CRAFTED Light Armor Sets in ESO These are the light armor sets for both the base game and DLC content. You can see which are DLC by the icon in the Location column. (3 items) Adds 1487 Armor (4 items) Adds 1487 Armor (5 items) When you take damage, you have a 20% chance to heal you and your allies within 7 meters for 2429 Health. This effect can occur once every 3 seconds. Type: Light Armor Style: Aldmeri, Daggerfall, Ebonheart Location: Cyrodiil Required DLC: None: Amber Plasm (2 items) Adds 1096 Max Magicka.

This guide will go over the most popular and the best Sets for most used build types (Stamina DPS, Magicka DPS, Tank, and Healer). Power-level of featured Sets will differ, as we want to include not only 'the best Trial Sets', but rather focus on easier-to-get, but still very powerful Crafted, Dungeon, and Monster Sets.

Set Types

Sets come in many different types in ESO. Each type is obtained in different ways and its power level often corresponds with the obtaining difficulty. However, many of the easy-to-obtain Overland BoE Sets provide powerful bonuses that make them good enough for all but the hardest end-game content. Every player can find a Set that can be obtained through his favorite in-game activities, which means that gearing up in ESO is very enjoyable, and can be considered as one of the most fun aspects of the game. The main Set Types Are:

  • Trial Sets - These can be obtained from Trials (as their name suggests) and often provide the highest Power Level of all available Sets, but are Very difficult to get because they are locked out behind the hardest Content in the game.
  • PvP Sets - Rewards for participating in PvP battles. These can be obtained from Cyrodill or the Imperial City.
  • Monster Masks and Shoulders - Available from Group Dungeons in Veteran Mode and from Undaunted Pledges. Masks drop from final bosses, and Shoulders are obtained through the Undaunted Chests.
  • Arena Sets - Rewards from the Maelstrom Arena and the Dragonstar Arena.
  • Crafted Sets - These can be created by Players at special Crafting Stations (different stations match different Sets, so you have to find an appropriate Station to craft a specific Set). Crafting requires a certain number of Traits researched on the particular item slot. Crafted sets can be offered for sale by other players as they are 'Bound on Equip'
  • Overland Sets - These can be obtained from mobs (World Bosses have a 100% chance to drop either a Weapon, Chest, Legs or a Head slot Set item, other parts commonly drop from Public Dungeon Bosses) in a specific Zone. Most zones have three Overland Sets specific to them (one Heavy, one Medium, and One Light Set). Overland Sets are bind-on-equip, so they can be farmed in large quantities and then sold to other Players.
  • Group Dungeon Sets - These are bind-on-pickup Item Sets that can be acquired from mobs inside Group Dungeons. Each Group Dungeon Boss drops a Set Item (Last Boss - Jewelry and Weapons, Normal Boss - Legs, Chest, Shoulder, and Head, Mini Boss - Boots, Waist, and Gloves). Although being bind-on-pickup, these Set Items can be traded to your Dungeon group members while you remain a part of the group.

Most Popular Stamina DPS Sets

Hunding's Rage

Hunding's Rage is a Craftable set that is a part of the base game. It is available in the form of Light, Medium, and Heavy Armor, Weapons, and Jewelry. High Weapon Damage bonus, great bonuses to Stamina and Weapon Critical and the rather low price make this set one of the most commonly used Stamina PvP sets. If you want a good start as a Stamina DPS, this set is the way to go. It will serve you well as the pre-BiS. Hunding's Rage's power level is similar to that of the Briarheart Set.

Set Bonuses

  1. (2 items) Adds 833 Weapon Critical
  2. (3 items) Adds 1096 Maximum Stamina
  3. (4 items) Adds 833 Weapon Critical

Exemplary Hunding's Rage Build: Odealo's Stamina Sorcerer PvE DPS

Stormfist

One of the most commonly used Stamina DPS Sets, and for a good reason. It is a part of the One Tamriel and comes as a Light, Medium, and Heavy Armor, and is available in the form of Helmet and Shoulders. Its 1-item bonus gives much-needed Stamina Recovery that helps with sustain by a lot, and the 2-item bonus provides a very high boost to Single-Target and AoE Damage (proc is very easy to get, as it activates when you deal Damage, it gets wasted sometimes, however, because mobs tend to move around, and the proc is ground-based which results in enemies sometimes dodging the thunderfist).

Set Bonuses

  1. (1 item) Adds 129 Stamina Recovery
  2. (2 items) When you deal damage, you have a 10% chance to create a thunderfist to crush the enemy, dealing 1650 Shock Damage every 1 second for 3 seconds to all enemies within 4 meters and a final 8000 Physical Damage when the fist closes; it has an 8-second internal cooldown.

How to Get

Stormfist Set can be acquired from the Veteran Tempest Island 4-man Dungeon located in the Malabal Tor.

  • Helmet drops from the final Boss in Veteran mode.
  • Shoulders can be sometimes found in the Gilirion the Redbeard's Chest by using the Pledge Key on it.
Exemplary Stormfist Build: Odealo's Stamina Dragonblade PvE DPS

Briarheart

A part of the Orsinium DLC, the Briarheart Set provides a very high boost to Weapon Damage, Maximum Stamina, and has a 5-item proc that increases your Weapon Damage even more, and heals you by a little to boot. It is available as Medium Armor, Weapons, and Jewelry. As a World-Drop, the Brioarheart set is rather easy to acquire, which makes it an excellent choice for fresh Stamina DPS Players.

Set Bonuses

  1. (2 items) Adds 833 Weapon Critical
  2. (3 items) Adds 1096 Maximum Stamina
  3. (4 items) Adds 833 Weapon Critical

How to Get

Exemplary Briarheart Build: Odealo's Stamina Templar PvE DPS

Velidreth

The Vildreth Set is one of the most commonly used Stamina DPS Monster Sets and is a part of the Shadows of the Hist DLC. High Weapon Damage bonus that comes as a 1-item bonus provides a very good DPS boost and the unique 2-item bonus boosts the DPS even higher (but each of the 3 spores hits different Target, which means that you will not get the triple effect when fighting a single enemy). The proc is very easy to get, as it activates on Damage, and will commonly proc on cooldown.

Set Bonuses

  1. (1 item) Adds 129 Weapon Damage
  2. (2 items) When you deal damage, you have a 20% chance to spawn 3 disease spores in front of you after 1 second that deal 10320 Disease Damage to the first enemy they hit. This effect has a 9-second internal cooldown.

Most Popular Magicka DPS Sets

Mother's Sorrow

Very popular (and very easy to get, especially for such a powerful set) Magicka DPS Set that gives a lot of additional Spell Critical which works great in both Single-Target and AoE encounters. This high bonus makes this set the backbone of almost every competitive Magicka DPS build. It comes as a Light Armor, Weapons, and Jewelry, and is a part of the One Tamriel.

Set Bonuses

  1. (2 items) Adds 1096 Max Magicka
  2. (3 items) Adds 833 Spell Critical

Mantle of Siroria

This set comes in two different versions normal and the perfect. The 5-item set bonus is the same for both versions, but the Perfect Mantle of Siroria provides higher Magicka bonus. Mantle of Siroria is a Trial set that comes in a form of Light Armor, Weapons, and Jewelry and is a part of the Summerset Chapter. The power level of this set is among the highest in the whole game. The Set, with fully charged 5-item bonus combined with other set bonuses, provides 600 Spell Damage, which is an astronomical number (before you get too excited, please remember that keeping all stacks up all the time is rather difficult, so your bonus will be lower most of the time. This means that playing with this set raises the skill-cap of your character by a lot, and mastering the ability to perfectly manage stacks is essential for getting the most out of this set).

Set Bonuses

  1. (2 items) Adds 129 Spell Damage
  2. (3 items) Increases your Damage Done to Dungeon and Trial Enemies by 5%
  3. (4 items) Adds 1096 Maximum Magicka
  4. (5 items) Adds 1096 Maximum Magicka and dealing Direct damage with single target abilities now creates a ring of fire; standing in the ring grants you 30 Spell Damage; this effect stacks up to 20 times, and the ring lasts for 10 seconds.

How to Get

You will need the Summerset Chapter to acquire this Set. The Set is bound on pickup, which means that it can't be bought and can only be traded to Players from the same Trial group.

  • Mantle of Siroria can be found in the Cloudrest Trial.
  • Every part of this Set is Bound on Pickup.
Exemplary Mantle of Siroria Build: Odealo's Magicka Nigthtblade PvE DPS

Silks of the Sun

This Light Armor, Weapon, and Jewelry Set is a part of the One Tamriel. It provides high bonuses to Health, Magicka, and Spell Damage. Silks of the Sun is used by Fire Damage-based builds, such as Magicka Dragonknight, thanks to its 5-item set bonus which provides 400 Spell Damage to Flame Damage abilities. This gives a total of 529 additional Spell Damage to Fire-based spells, a number that rivals the great Mantle of Siroria. However, because of the limitation that comes with the 5-item bonus, this set has very limited uses outside the Magicka Dragonknight DPS builds (but is a top choice in them, and so it is featured here).

Set Bonuses

  1. (2 items) Adds 1206 Max Health
  2. (3 items) Adds 1096 Max Magicka
  3. (4 items) Adds 129 Spell Damage
  4. (5 items) Adds 400 Spell Damage to your Flame Damage abilities

How to Get

Silks of the Sun is an Overland Set that can be found in the Stonefalls. The Set is bound on equip, which means that it can be bought from other Players.

  • Stonefalls's Overland Bosses Drop Weapons, Legs, Chests, and Shoulders.
  • Delve Bosses can drop Boots or Waist.
  • Public Dungeon Bosses may drop Weapons, Gloves, and Shoulders.
  • All monsters encountered in Stonefalls have a small chance to drop a set piece.
  • Set pieces can also be found in Zone's Treasure Chests.

Master Architect

Master Architect is a Light Armor, Weapons, and Jewelry Trial Set, that is a part of the Morrowind DLC. Its 2-item bonus gives you Minor Slayer, which provides 5% Damage in all Trials and Dungeons. The 5-item bonus is what makes this set stand out, as it provides Major Slayer buffs to the set user and 2 other allies (this effect procs after you use an Ultimate). Thanks to this buff, every Trial group wants to have at least 2 Magicka DPSers who use the Master Architect Set (utilizing the buff requires proper positioning, because it goes off on two closest allies, even if they already have the effect active on them). We recommend this set for Classes with cheap Ultimates, for maximizing proc's uptime (for example Templar+Crescent Sweep or Nightblade+Soul Harvest).

Set Bonuses

  1. (2 items) Adds 1096 Maximum Magicka
  2. (3 items) Gain Minor Slayer at all times, increasing your damage done to Dungeon and Trial Monsters by 5%
  3. (4 items) Adds 129 Spell Damage (5 items) When you use an Ultimate ability, you and the closest 2 allies within 28 meters of you gain Major Slayer for 10 seconds, increasing your damage done to Dungeon and Trial Monsters by 15%
  4. (5 items) When you use an Ultimate, you and two closest allies within 28m gain Major Slayer, increasing Damage Done to Dungeon and Trial Monsters by 15% for 10 seconds.

How to Get

You will need the Morrowind DLC to acquire this Set. The Set is bound on pickup, which means that it can't be bought and can only be traded to Players from the same Trial group.

  • It is a reward from the Halls of Fabrication Trial.
  • Normal mode Bosses and trash mobs drop blue-quality variant.
  • Veteran mode Bosses and trash mobs drop purple-quality variant.
  • The last boss in the Veteran mode drops gold-quality set Jewelry.

False God's Devotion

False God's Devotion is one of the best Magicka sets in Elder Scrolls Online. In terms of raw DPS, in most cases it may be second to Mantle of Siroria, however, it helps greatly with your Resource Management, which will do better in various encounters.

Set Bonuses

  1. (2 items) Adds 833 Spell Critical
  2. (3 items) Gain Minor Slayer at all times, increasing your damage done to Dungeon, Trial, and Arena Monsters by 5%.
  3. (4 items) Adds 833 Spell Critical
  4. (5 items) Adds 129 Spell Damage, Reduces the cost of your Magicka Abilities by 8%. When you kill an enemy, you restore 2150 Magicka and gain Major Expedition for 8 seconds, increasing your Movement Speed by 30%.

How to Get

False God's Devotion requires the Elsweyr chapter unlocked. It can be found in the Sunspire Trial. Since it's bound on pick up, you can't buy it from other players, but you will have to face the challenge yourself

Most Popular Tank Sets

Ebon Armory

This set comes as Heavy Armor, Weapons, and Jewelry and is a part of the One Tamriel. It has substantial Maximum Health bonuses and increases Healing Taken, moreover, it raises total Health of up to 11 group members (5-item bonus; this improves the survivability of the whole trial group). If you see a Tank with 3 red orbs floating around him (a feature of the set), stay within 28m of him, and you will receive the Health bonus (must be in Tank's group, of course). The set is one of the most popular for PvE Tanking, mainly because of the above-mentioned Health boosts.

Set Bonuses

  1. (2 items) Adds 1206 Maximum Health
  2. (3 items) Adds 1206 Maximum Health
  3. (4 items) Adds 4% Healing Taken

Roar of Alkosh

This is a Stamina-based Medium Armor, Jewelry, and Weapons Set. It is a part of the Thieves Guild DLC. Yes, it is Medium and yes, it is used by Tanks. The 5-item bonus that allows the wearer to send a Shockwave that damages enemies in front of him and lowers their resistance. This weave offers a unique penetration debuff which stacks with other penetration debuffs, which enables Trial groups to easily achieve penetration caps. The main reason for Tanks preferring this set is their tendency to stand in front of the Bosses, which simplifies using the synergy by a lot, and allows them to maximize debuff uptime. Also, activating synergies is an important part of Tank's resource management.

Set Bonuses

  1. (2 items) Adds 833 Weapon Critical
  2. (3 items) Gain Minor Slayer at all times, increasing your damage done to Dungeon and Trial Monsters by 5%.
  3. (4 items) Adds 129 Weapon Damage

How to Get

The Set is bound on pickup, which means that it can't be bought and can only be traded to Players from the same Trial group.

  • Available from Weekly Trial Rewards.
  • Can be acquired from the Maw of Lorkhaj Trial.

This is a Light Armor, Weapons, and Jewelry set that comes in two variants, Vestment of Olorime and the Perfect Vestment of Olorime. The Perfect version provides slightly better stats, but the 5-item Set bonus is exactly the same for both versions. Vestment of Olorime is currently one of the best Healing sets in the game. It allows you to have a 100% uptime on Major Courage because the buff stays active for 30 seconds, and the 5-item bonus effect, that creates Courage-applying zone, can be activated every 10 seconds.

END NOTE

Please note that this is a premiere version of our Elder Scrolls Online Armor Sets Guide, and we plan to expand it with even more popular and powerful ESO Sets at a later date, so if you have any suggestions, please leave them in the comments section below. We are well aware that some of the Sets featured above may not be the best available, but they are certainly competitive, affordable/easy-to-get and will let you properly set your character up for the ESO's Eng-Game content.

Crafted set items are a huge incentive to work on your smith professions and research more traits for armor and weapons in Elder Scrolls Online. Item sets give bonuses based on how many items of the set you’re wearing. Every crafted item set in ESO has different bonuses for using two, three, four or five set pieces at the same time.

You can mix and match your set pieces in any way you wish. Your Light Armor gloves could be one piece of the set, Heavy Armor helm the second piece, Medium Armor belt the third piece and the daggers you are dual wielding would make up for the 5-piece set bonus.

Full list of crafted item sets, set bonuses and crafting locations for each alliance below. See our item set guide for other, non-crafted item sets.

Why Your Weapon Choice Matters

Yes – weapons are part of the crafted set bonuses too. This is may be more important than you would think at first, because it means those who dual-wield weapons or use a shield have one extra slot for crafted items. That’s two set items from weapons and seven from armor. If you use a two handed weapon (destruction staff, restoration staff, bow or any two handed melee weapon) you’ll always end up with 1 less slot for crafted items.

As of Update 3, all crafted item sets have a 2-piece, 3-piece, 4-piece and 5-piece bonus. This means two-handed weapon users are no longer penalized as harshly when it comes to mixing and matching set bonuses. Before update 3, there were only 3-piece and 5-piece bonuses. The 2-piece and 4-piece bonuses of Update 3 give much more room for customization, and enable you to rock 4x 2-piece bonuses if you wanted to.

You will not be able to use two 5-piece crafted item bonus whether you dual-wielded or used two-handed weapons, because the max crafted items you can have on you at any specific time is 9.

Note that 5-piece bonus also includes the 2-piece, 3-piece, and 4-piece bonuses.

How to Craft Set Items in ESO

Anyone could craft set items in ESO, but there are a couple of requirements. First of all, all crafted item sets have a Trait Requirement. What the Trait Requirement means, is you can only craft an item of the set if you have learned the required number of Traits for that item. You can learn Traits for Blacksmithing, Clothing and Woodworking by researching, which is a very time-consuming process. That’s why Trait Requirement is the biggest obstacle on your path.

I’ve further explained why it’s a big deal here. ‘Too long; did not read’ explanation: In a perfect world, you’ll be able to craft the 8-Trait sets after 51 days. For most players with a bit of crafting dedication it’s likely going to be near double that time.

The second requirement is that you have to be able to travel to the special crafting station. Even if you are very low level, you could in in theory at least travel to most of these locations, so your level on its own is not an obstacle. There are a couple of sets which require you to be at a certain stage of a quest line. Spectre’s Eye set is crafted in Coldharbour, so unless you have progressed far enough in the main quest line, you will not be able to craft that set. Same thing with Eyes of Mara, Shalidor’s Curse and Kagrenac’s Hope sets – these sets require you to have finished Mages Guild and Fighters Guild quest lines.

There are no other requirements. You craft a set piece like you would craft any other item – there are no special materials needed.

The Set Bonuses Scale

The values of the set bonuses listed below are for Veteran Rank 12 items. Many of the values change depending on the level of the item. The higher the item’s level, the better the set bonus.

Eso armor slot differences

Eso Armor Slot Differences

Set bonuses can scale based on two things:

  • The quality of the item
  • Your stats

Whitestrake’s Retribution damage shield bonus seems to scale depending on your Stamina, for example.

Hunding’s Rage 5-piece weapon damage bonus scales based on the item’s quality.

Not all set bonuses scale. Death’s Wind 5-piece weapon damage bonus, for example, doesn’t change even if you upgrade the item’s quality.

List of Crafted Item Sets in ESO

There are 23 different crafted item sets in Elder Scrolls Online. You can only craft set items at a specific crafting station. Set item crafting stations are scattered across Tamriel and each Alliance has their own locations for the great majority of the sets, which are listed below as well as the traits required to craft the set item.

There’s three set crafting stations in every major alliance zone, two in Coldharbour and two are accessed via Mages Guild and Fighters Guild each. One crafted set station is in Craglorn.

(AD stands for Aldmeri Dominion, DC for Daggerfall Covenant and EP for Ebonheart Pact.)
