Thanks for watching! Hopefully this helps you navigate the DPS set landscape for Update 35! Had a lot of fun putting this one together.
Awesome vid, skinny! As always, what is that cool costume you have on in the vid?
You’re a legend man. Thanks for the consistent information on all things pve
@@mateoignacio9670 thanks. honestly i have no idea just some random one on the pts. i remember it said "explorer" in the name
@@mudkipmaverik7449
@@skinnycheeks Thanks man!! Really appreciate it!!
You keep me in this game, you really do 🤟 keep up all the great work, what you bring personally to players that you don't see is truly grateful.
☺
Glad I came back to the game. After not playing for almost 2 years so much has changed. These type of videos are what helps ppl get into end game content. You are a huge asset to the community.
- Xray.
Welcome back. And thank you 😊
I like that you give so many choices and explain the differences. There have been some times when I have gone with the "Meta recommendation" and found that I just didn't like the mechanics the set required to take full advantage of it. I'd rather have fun doing a bit less DPS than make a chore of the game trying to max things out.
Top notch as always! Thank you for all the work you put to keep the comunity updated in a consistent way!
One question, due to hybridization, for Sorcerer, either stamina or magicka, does it matter if you use weapon or spell damage enchants on rings and neck? I have been checking your website for everyclass, and as example for templar you have a note saying that for Power of the Light and Purifying Light did not got fully hybridized. Just wondering if for sorcerer it does apply to any skill.
Thanks in advance!
I am glad you also covered some special sets and also heavy attack sets. I love the heavy attack sets since they actually do very serious damage even though I am not doing much on my end, besides I don't have to worry about weaving either
Thanks for this guide. Really looking forward to the Mythic/Monster/Arena tier list for U36. Cheers!
I'm learning every time new things, sharing knowledge is appreciated and valued, tanx 👍✌
Love these vids, always save these on a playlist and come back to them as reference, thanks again profe ❤️
Great video, i watch I like 3 times ! Thanks for the explanations. I feel like I can understand better the different proc of those sets and in which situation too utilized them
Skinny your videos are awesome. Perfect delivery and tone. Keep it up sir
Amazing video and explanation, thank you!
Thanks for the video, makes a lot of sense. I've been struggling with staying in ESO due to not feeling I am progressing as much as I'd like and being a preferred solo player with oakensoul, it's been a bit rough. Now I know I'm not that far behind the trial sets and it's probably based a lot more on CP.
Thx for this dude it has been so hard to find the meta as a returning player
Hey man, just wanted to say thank you, i'm a new player and it's really interesting and helpful learning all this, thanks for making eso content too
Awesome as always Skinny!! :) I really liked how you showed the effects of the sets.. really helpful... and SS tier for support got me haha!! :) Cheers..
Thank you 😊
OMG! Such a Great Work! Thanks a lot! Waiting for more XD
Thanks for making this video. It's great to hear your thoughts on which situations a set is weak or strong. After watching this I'm now looking at your website as a reference to plan to outfit all my DPS.

Great vid guy always a pleasure watching you're informative stuffs
yooo massive shout out i wasnt expecting it :D
The king of kings, thank you skinny hopefully your channels blows up, so every eso player knows it
Thanks for this in depths review of dps sets!

Skinny... your videos are amazing and you are my go to for all things pve. I would love to see you be more specific for 4man dungeon setups as this differs greatly from trials snd the dummy. Especially pugging vs structured 4 man. I pug alot so i cant always count on proper buffs or high skill. A chart for this and some setups and parses geared towards this specifically would help greatly. So i know what is realistic for these scenarios and goals to set for damage. As it is now every build video out there is geared towards trials. Some simple additions to your videos and website for 4man and pugging could help immensly. Keep up the good work! You da best.
Great stuff as always. Was pretty surprised you decided to put aegis caller in B considering how good it is, but I do agree that recovery line hurts it.
Thanks!
Running Coral riptide and pillars of nirn together with selene on my Stamden. Works absolutly great. And the best thing is that its soooo easy to change it to a solo build. another monsterset with a really great bonus on first slot and Ring of pale order. Vateshran, Maelstrom are sooo much fun and dungeons like falkreath work great solo with that. totally love it.
Thx for your time and insight
What is that ?
I Love how your Char is glenching fists the Background Like "Set's good!!! Ya hear me...oooorrr grrrr" xD The Fashionscrolls is strong too xD
Thx, awesome Video again! 🌹🌹🤘😍
*Great Video* 👊🏻
My favourite build guider stay awesome be awesome skinny cheeks you rock buddy
Great video! You make it really easy to understand which situations a set will work best with, and I really appreciate that!
Thank you for this. ❤️❤️❤️
Great video, as always.
Thanks Bee!
So many people still don’t know you can prod bsw off a flame staff light attack. Always causing burning status affect so it’s a sustain set for dk too
I've spent a lot of time doing calculations on azure blight, and you can easily have three people running this if they are all doing a moderate amount of AOE damage overtime, and it will far out perform all the other five piece set bonuses even divided between three people due to the increased rate of explosions. The cut off for how many people should wear it is calculated based off the number of enemies with moderately High Health, but if you have six enemies two to three people wearing it will still be the most efficient.
Thanks always a great video my guy.
Thanks!
Thank you Brother! Very helpful...take care please. 😀
aegis caller can be used on command sort of if you are a nightblade, casting shadowy disgues before using any martial meelee skill[surprise attack sometimes best] you can forcably trigger this at the start of a combo or fight
also pairs well with rushing agony/dark convergence and the skill stampede/crit rush. imo if using it stampede, rushing agony set, and prior theric monster helm creates a strong aoe burn all together followed by brawler cleaves as spamable with a master 2hander
Magick temp with orders and deadly works together pretty well
The video was good timing for me. I was looking for which sets to use for my 4x mag DPS. I don't have High Isle because ZOS nerf the new sets when the new chapters come out. There are not a lot of choices, but luckily I have a couple of sets of Siroria stored away.
Just finished the farm for Bahsei's body pieces, so I have that option as well!
I've stopped playing (for now), but i stillenjoy your content! Keep it up!
Thanks!
Thanks Mr Cheeks.
Love this video, and honestly love that there's different sets for different situations. What would you suggest for vka hm? Siroria/pillar for cleave on first and second boss and rele/pillar for final boss is what I was thinking
Thanks! And yeah that sounds solid. Siroria could probably work on all fights as well.
One thing to note about azureblight reaper is that the dots from poisoned burning and hemorrhaging status effects do NOT count towards the explosion.
Another thing about azureblight is that flurry DOES count towards the set so each flurry use is 4 stacks towards the explosion.
Does extend ritual damage morph work?
i have used plague break with rush of agony for a long long time now as my got aoe / trash set up....still love it. BIG con is that only one person can apply the dot tho so never should have more than 1 in a 4 man dung or 2-3 in big groups
Siroria feeling very nice. Even on mobile fights like Bahsei I can keep 85-90% uptime on 10 stacks depending on RNG.
Was wondering what your opinion on the overwhelming surge set is? And where it would fall on this list
Great Video! I find myself always checking your channel for the next one. When we gonna get a Magplar Parse? Lol
Thank you! Probably not this patch.
Fire 🔥 exactly what I was looking for! I’ve been trying to find something to replace blood moon on my one bar with oakensoul since they changed empower…guess pillar of nirn so I can just focus on heavy attacks and not have to think about the proc?
If you are focusing on heavy attacks there is a small section there too. I think noble duelist and sergeant have been the most popular this patch.
@@skinnycheeks you the man 🙏🏼 thank you brother. Between the two for stam DK do you think one would outperform the other or pretty much a wash?
Very insightful video., thanks for uploading! I'm curious why you didn't list Back-Alley Gourmand, maybe it's too similar to Order's Wrath? And how would you rate Warmaiden for magplar and magblade builds?
Thanks! This vid was recorded before the set was released. It is mentioned in the description and updated in that section of the website. War maiden in those scenarios is generally like a low b tier kinda set. Great for starting off but generally gets outclassed once you’ve picked up better options.
Thanks
I use Tzorgvin + Pillar of nirn + Slimecraw Mask + Oaksoul ring on a Bow 1Bar Build on NB its pretty fun
I still think Hearland's Conqueror is a very good set (being craftable and all) specifically for DK (was also good on Warden last patch, but haven't tested it yet this patch)
Yeah i actually had heartland in C but cut that section of the video cause it was getting too long
What would a good combo of craftable sets be for soloing base game vet dungeons?
ty :)
I'm very surprised to not see Red Mountain on here. Been using it on my StamDK for years now, paired with Relequen. I've tried swapping it out with other sets like Briarheart, Tzovgins, Aegis Caller and others on this list and always do less DPS without it. Another thing to note is I've been telling people about Pillar of Nirn and how underrated it was for a long time. I stopped playing around Blackwood, and at that time nobody was talking bout Nirn except me lol. When I came back for High Isle, I saw it's blown up now and used in many builds. Red Mountain, people. Check it out!
That’s cause pillar of nirn couldn’t crit until update 32 so that’s when people started using it. It was okay before but certainly not one of the top options like it is now. Red mountain is a decent option but the dps is much lower than pillar of nirn.
Awesome video! What UI do you use?
I'm using dark-convergence set (5 pieces). I think it's a good one too. Does it have any cons for magica DPS? And is there any other set more usefull?
thanks a lot, this video what I was looking for, not a annoying “meta 124k dps” with the same gear on each class, waiting for monster sets and arena so much and separate video and f combination of those
Thanks for this. Every time I come back to the game the meta is totally upset, it's friggin weird having to relearn stuff every time I come back
Also from the looks of it, Mechanical Acuity is actually better now.
It is very easy to keep aegis caller up, as Stampede is a forced critical hit with a martial melee attack.
Recasting it every 12 seconds would not be ideal, but you should always be able to proc it at the beginning of an add wave by initiating with stampede into cleave.
Thanks! Yep someone else clarified this too. I didn’t originally realize stampede counted a melee ability since it had a range on it. But I guess makes sense since it ends in melee
Hi Sir,
what do you think for sorc. Can Storm Set + Blossom set and Oakensoul ring work well ? (heavy attack build)
I have been wondering what set or skill puts a purple ring on the ground. Have been seeing it for several weeks now. Do you know what I mean? Thanks.
Could you do a version of this for unsub/no DLC for folks who don't have access to DLC/chapter instances? IE: Best budget build, best free to play sets?
Hey new to Eso I’m playing a Stamden with Selenes Monster Set and Aegis Caller which Set could i pair with it for best? I don’t have any trial set or played trial
Aegis Caller is A-tier for bossfights in my opinion (especially in a build with 1 mythic+full monsterset+frontbar S-set such as Siroria/Relequen/Worl), in which in my experience the set performance in a comparable fashion/level as Pillar of Nirn.
One can use this set in a similar way as most use Pillar of Nirn, as backbar greatsword to proc it and have 4-piece on the frontbar. This set is a trade-off a bit less single target damage for significantly more aoe damage compared to Pillar of Nirn.
This set procs typically instantly by stampede (+LA) (otherwise you can still use Carve/barbed trap/class-specific skills especially for longer fights where you have those dots constantly running).
Unscaled single target DPS Nirn based one full duration: 372.45. Radius: 2.5m
Unscaled single target DPS Aegis Caller based one full duration (even including downtime+1 second cooldown): 358.5. Radius: LARGER (>=6m).
I prefer the 12 seconds cooldown over the 10 seconds cooldown when using it on the backbar with greatsword. I also expected the RNG to be an issue: it was not at all: la+stampede+bleed etc. has almost always an instant proc. So far, I have not noticed a time that Aegis Caller did not instant proc.

what set u recommend for stams in vBRP?
wa
what setup would you recommend to optimise damage as dps in 4 man conent or solo arenas?
I don't agree that coral and bahsei have become harder to manage since the hybridization. On the contrary you can now substitute many skills for skills of the other resource type and adjust your food so that you hit the sweet spot in resource return. Anyways, great video!
Yeah fair enough! Guess I should have said for “general use” not for those really maxing it by pre dumping resources.
How did I miss this video?
I wish they gave Yandir just a small buff. Such a cool set and is just so eh when compared to most Trial DPS sets.
yeah would love to see yandir get a little love
I've been running hundings with new moon for the longest ever, and recently changed new moons for Orders wrath. maybe its time to expand my dps sets 🤔
Will you provide a monster set video as well?
So would I be stupid to try out grave inevitability and orders wrath... im currently using deadly and orders wrath with oakensoul
Not sure if this might help anyone but Mad tinkerer (MT) might perform better than Pillar of Nirn (PN). In my PTS testing on a magplar using just the 5 piece set in isolation and isolating skills (so only using 1 skill at a time to test the effect of a set, for example spamming jabs only, no la or anything) and not using any CP, but I did include max mag at 64 points and the mag regen boon for resource sustain. On the dummy I found that MT out performed PN on repeated tests every single time (not to mention that PN is a small radius so if your tank doesn't tightly stack the adds then you do not hit many of them unlike with MT). I tested both of these sets multiple times and consistently got better results with MT than PN. I eventually fleshed out a full build for the Magplar and as a finished build also swapping between MT and PN, MT consistently had better results in the more dynamic build. It is also a Light Armor set so if you are looking for that instead of a Medium Armor set this might be a viable option with the same proc requirements as PN. Plus it gives an extra line of Crit chance instead of the Max Stamina of PN. It seems to hit harder than PN for me and is better at AOE even though the tool tip shows PN hits harder in its 2.5 Meter radius. I hope this information helps someone, maybe test it for your build on the PTS to see if it can give you better results. Happy Hunting.
Keep in mind that PN's damage is not only the DoT, but also the initial hit and damage from Hemorrhaging status effect. If it was like that then Flame Blossom would hit harder than MT due to high uptime of Burning. MT will be better for very short burst window on any encounter that dont have pullable adds, but sustained fights dots from Nirn will work better here in the long run.
Tanks really HATE dds that stun adds that needs to be chained, like twins in MoL or frogs in RG, so there is always a call for sorcs to 'not press the monkey'.
Skinny for the win!! 🏆 🏅
Hey man, thanks for this video, it helped me a lot!
I have a question... There is a niche set that if you can make it work it should fall under A tier (if you compare the stats), the set is Diamond's Victory which I managed to have a 85-90% uptime of both 5 pieces set bonuses in most fights, I use it alongside with Tzogvin in a mag build... If I wanted to swap one of those for Bahsei, which one would you swap? Diamond and losing a lot of spell power or Tzogvin, losing the crit chance and having to swap one dot in backbar for Channeled Acceleration?
My crit chance without Tzogvin's stacks it is 55.8%.
just a heads-up there is a newer version of this video out now! this one is a bit older. but in your case I'd probably drop Diamond's victory
Nothing satisfies me more than running elemental catalyst as a necro. In dungeons I actually run it with lokkestiz since most healers don't run Major Slayer buffs in 4-man content. Constantly getting 15% increase to crit damage for the group and 10% extra damage done while hitting 8k+ spell damage at 33k mag. I love my necro.
Elfbane & Burning Spellweave w/ Grundulf MS on a Magknight!
I am so lost with every update cause I just wanna play and don't test sets snd stuff that much. With your help I can
I have oakensoul
Orders wrath and nightmothers sorrow for my magplar
Any thing I should swap out for like deadly strike?
Yeah you can drop mothers sorrow
i just farmed pillar of nirn but have no trial sets. every build guide seems to pair it in odd combinations with another trial set. i have the greatsword and daggers, so what other body set would be ok in the meantime?
Really any of the A-tier ones listed if you don’t have a trial set yet
Why doesn't anyone mention Spinners or the Lich sets?? I have both from a while back and back to play and seems like no one's using them anymore?
Hello, great video! Is Julianos good too?
Thanks. It’s decent. Not the greatest but a solid early option.
What do you think about Siroria's and Deadly Strike as a combo for a magplar?
Very very good
Newbie here: Should I use these on my magsorc? He's all light armor. Should I blend in some mediums from these sets?
I have the bow for aegis caller. Using it on a range build, will that bring it up to A teir? I've noticed they've taken it out of the drops.
that doesn't really have an effect on the tier. but yeah if you check my u36 tier list on the website i've updated it for aegis in A-tier.
How about Icy Congjurer set. Is it good for warden as B or A Tier? I'm thinking to pair the set with Bahsei Mania. I just don't know if it worth to have IC set. Could you test this set in the future for warden? what do you think?
Ah yeah I look at that one from time to time. Never actually used it in content. I need to try it out again at some point.
Dear Skinny, what is your most favorite set for stampler with oakensoul ? except relequin.
Deadly strike
Idk that releq + kinra, slimecraw + oakensoul is still fun/solid for randoms too
Just a quick note for the adventurous people making their own builds. A lot of the generalizations he makes are usually true but sometimes depending on how you are building including everything you are race the skills you're using what you spec into Etc, but depending on how you build it can be more beneficial to completely forgo the minor Slayer buff and take advantage of two unique five piece bonuses or multiple weapon piece bonuses Etc because they're aggregate effect on your build is greater than just making sure you have all of the basic stat Buffs that you can. But this is admittedly a much easier way to look at building in ESO and cause everybody to come out in a similar place.
do stamplars use radiant destruction now? or does that just apply to magplars?
Yes both.
Hey skinny what about aurrands thunder ? I heard that's pretty good
it's okay for short burst
Just a brief Theory crafting note about Minor force. Minor force is not a buff that you need to be sure to bring to end game. If you are in a group optimized the same way the trial dummy is, you are only responsible to bring 30% critical damage done. If you are wearing orders wrath that is 8%. It basically completely cancels out minor Force which means it can be an exact replacement for Medusa as long as you find 2% more crit damage somewhere else like one piece of medium armor. I believe skinny cheeks said that number specifically in his video but the math is pretty easy to do when you add up Major Force, minor brittle and Elemental catalyst. The cap is 125, the base is 50 meaning you need 75. Those three Buffs together add up to 45 which means you only need 30 more. But it is true that a lot of the times minor Force is a very efficient way to get 10% extra if you aren't at cap yet.
Nice ! I run on my Necro Aegis caller + pillar of nirn + Harpooner + stormfist. Very easy to track pillar and switch to proc aegis since it's last longer. With dual wield + 2h it's perfect. I find Relequin with pillar fuking boring ...with the 5 sec light attack to proc rele... to much management with the necro and for clearing trash... its suk. I know i hit more with that set-up but, it's what i like right now.
Great info, as always. I’m curious for your thoughts for a particular setup I run.
MS and Converging darkness.
I know CG used to be popular, but I never see it mentioned anymore.
Using unnerving boneyard for converging element to start… followed by a back bar scalding rune. Depending on number of mobs, I will then use S Blastbones rotation with Ricochet and Destro fire clench. Alternately I wade in close with the stam Sythe if I need magik a sustain.
Obviously it’s not a run and gun setup in order to allow the 25 second timer for proc, but as a solo build there isn’t much that can withstand the multiple dots and/or sythe.
Quick question. How is the craftable set, morkuldin? Seems pretty good on paper, but i am not as well versed in dps as the other top end players
It may be ok on sorcs with the new buff to daedric prey to increase pets by 45%. I haven’t looked at it in a while though as the base dmg from it is pretty low
@@skinnycheeks seems pretty good when i looked at it and seem to have a bit less damage from pillar. Tho, i am no parsing god. Gonna try it on my sorc tho
Can u use some of these sets for pvp ?
What aegis caller, what would proc it on a sorc magicka dps ?
Same as any other build. It isn’t boosted by daedric prey
A few other sets I'd argue are A or B tier for specific builds:
Swamp Raider - Stamina NB with all poison or disease skills and a bow.
War Maiden - Magic NB with all magic morphs on the NB class skills.
Innate Axiom - Any hybrid build using mainly class skills. Not as much damage, but the bonus includes healing skills, and it's craftable.
Innate Axiom is my baby
Tbf for PvE stamblade will be using merciless instead of relentless, S2W instead of power extraction and in dungeons/BRP/DSA soul harvest instead of incap so just no. Also, regarding magblade, no way is War maiden worth it over order's Wrath which is craftable and synergises much better with the class. In Innate axiom can be good on magblade front bar but the line of stam is a waste.
What happened to New Moon Acolyte?
I'm currently running a rele 5 piece with a pillar 5 piece and a Zaan monster set. StamDK. Do you think I should switch out pillar for one of the super ultimates to maximize DPS?
I think you should rewatch through the A-tier and S-tier and the summary. I think you may have missed a key part of that discussion.
@@skinnycheeks I didn't watch that part. Skipped straight to S. haha!
I will watch that part. Thanks!
