As part of the public testing of the Necrom Chapter, 13 new set items have been added to The Elder Scrolls Online. With so much new equipment up for grabs, which are the best ones of the bunch?
If you are constantly bar swapping in ESO, you can benefit greatly from the new Vivec’s Duality. This light armor set has a unique five-piece bonus that gives you 6,636 magicka and stamina when bar swapping. The developers note that this bonus only applies when you have all five pieces equipped.
Another set worth mentioning is the new Test of Resolve. This heavy armor set fully restores your health, magicka, and stamina if your stamina is below 50%. You will also gain two damage-mitigating buffs in Major Protection and Major Aegis for 10 seconds. If stamina is above 50%, you become a Beacon of Hope for 20 seconds, causing your major and minor Buffs to also grant Major Aegis for 10 seconds. Although this effect has a one-minute cooldown, it is still quite useful because it will strengthen your defenses and enable you to stay in a fight longer.
