To all ESO players! With the addition of all-new armor sets in The Elder Scrolls Online, the world of Tamriel is about to become a battlefield once again! It is time to prepare yourselves for an all-out brawl in PvE as well as PvP arenas.
The Scribes of Fate DLC and the base game Update 37 of ESO bring forth new armor sets for players to don in their quest for glory. Since each armor set is tailored for a specific playstyle or role, these new gear items will require players to significantly alter their combat strategies and preferences.
Be it the Ozezan the Inferno Monster set, Runecarver’s Blaze Dungeon set, or Shell Splitter PvP set, the upcoming new gear items have something for everyone. And this is not the end of the picture yet. These new armor sets also come with their own unique set bonuses that will give players a tactical advantage on the battlefield. Depending on your gameplay style, these upcoming gear sets will make you a force to be reckoned with in all of Tamriel!
However, there is a little trade-off to all these potential benefits. And this is the simple matter of fact that you won’t be getting them for free. In order to get your hands on these lucrative sets, you would have to grind your way through.
