Ok, so I finally finished building the set, cant even put it on yet (not high enough level), but already it seems out classed by lower level gear. Now I know it is a rare set and the gear I am comparing it to is heroic. But it is a set, shouldnt there be a nice bonus?

 

Another problem I can see with it is the fact it is (at the highest level) a lvl35 set. For the time it took to build the thing. I would be much higher than level 35 and would likely have MUCH better gear. In the time spent farming for required pelts and the needed skinning resources to level leatherwork I actually found about 6 or 7 heroic items. A set taking this long to build would be more suited to end game content. I know that drop rates will be fixed etc and it will be easier to obtain in the future. But right now, if it is not improved, I just dont see it bein gthat popular.

I think with the time spent gathering the resources for this set, it should be at least upgraded to heroic stats. The items are spread out over 5 levels so its not like it will be game breaking.

btw, how many copper bars have you spent crafting "copper plated" gear

From memory, the pieces are Rare, at least the equivalent Mage pieces are, but they have Fine stats, they are worse than some Rare pieces I have now.  Hard to create pieces should have very good stats, individually, and a set bonus, especially mid-level pieces (which these will be), because they will be temporary in nature, outclassed by higher level gear.

 

I should not have to throw my set away because I find a heroic piece.  I'm assuming, based on hearsay, that the set bonus will not justify wearing it once I have even one level appropriate heroic piece.

 

Regarding the rare/unusual components, it seems MUCH easier to get Dense/Pure ore than Ethereal tailoring items or the equivalent Leatherworking items.

I've just checked the stats on this set. The Armor and Defense Bonus are correct, but... the Vitality, Ranged and Energy bonuses are slightly off. I will correct this and it will be fixed for the next build.

Please also check the Void Mage set and the heavy set, which I don't recall the name.

Thanks Varkaz, and like grimnok said, the light and heavy sets also suffer from some inadequecies too. These sets should all be saught after sets!

Why not take a look at the same time at the Mercenary set (heavy armor)  it suppose to be rare but it have the same stats as  "fine" gears but with a little bit more armor. Maybe it will be better if there is a set bonus. im not sure yet if we have set bonus in Eldevin.

Thx

As there were some issues with the Copper Plated Leather (Medium) crafted set, I also checked the Mercenary (Heavy) crafted set and the Void Mage (Light) crafted set. They are all fixed now and will be updated in the next build.

 

Thank you for highlighting this, as you say, the crafted sets should be sought after.

 Yes, sets also have a set bonus
