Discover the new ESO gear sets arriving in the Elder Scrolls Online (ESO) next update, Gold Road Chapter Update 42, in June 2024.
The ESO Gold Road chapter features a 30-hour story, West Weald New Zone, and Lucent Citadel 12-Player Trial. However, the most significant new feature is a new Scribing mechanic that allows players to customize special skills from existing skill lines, known as Grimoires, empowering them to shape their builds and playstyle like never before. Below are all the new gear sets and Mthics items in the Elder Scrolls Online Gold Road Chapter, launching on PC on June 3rd and Xbox and PlayStation on June 18th. Below, we show all the New Gear Sets for ESO Gold Road Chapter Update 42.
Crafting Armor Sets
Below are the three crafting gear sets released with the Gold Road Chapter:
Highland Sentinel
Highland Sentinel Set gives three lines of critical chance and a proc condition in the Elder Scrolls Online (ESO):
The set significantly increases the critical chance. However, the “standstill” requirement might be impossible in some content. Many dungeons have extremely mobile mechanics. This will be used in parsing setups.
Tharriker’s Strike
Tharriker’s Strike Set gives three lines of weapon and spell damage and a proc condition in the Elder Scrolls Online (ESO):
Major Berserk is easily obtainable from skills and other sets; this five-piece bonus will not be used in most situations.
Threads of War
Threads of War Set gives two lines of max stamina, spell and weapon damage, and a proc condition in the Elder Scrolls Online (ESO):
This set seem weak compared to a similar bonus you may achieve with one of the new Gold Road chapter overland sets, Symmetry of the Weald. The second one gives twice as much of a chance to gain status effect chance, and it’s easier to trigger than its craftable version.
Overland Armor Sets
Below are all the gear sets in the overland zones released with the Gold Road Chapter:
Light Armor:Symmetry of the Weald
Symmetry of the Weald Set gives three lines of spell and weapon damage, and a proc condition in the Elder Scrolls Online (ESO):
This set is a fantastic early game and an easy option to get from exploring the zone or guild trades. The fifth set bonus corresponds well with one of the strongest status effects in game right now Hemorrhaging. It is a status effect in ESO that causes the target to bleed and reduces their max health. An extra chance to trigger any status effect is always great for builds that can take full advantage of it. This light armor set might be used in ESO PvE mode.
Medium Armor:Macabre Vintage
Macabre Vintage Set gives four lines of spell and weapon damage, and a proc condition in the Elder Scrolls Online (ESO):
Bleed might see their comeback with the new Scribing mechanic. The ability to create exciting spell combinations may make this set extremely powerful for this specific time of builds.
Heavy Armor:Ayleid Refuge
Ayleid Rufuge Set gives two lines of max health, a line of max stamina, and a proc condition in the Elder Scrolls Online (ESO):
This new heavy armor set option is extremely easy to get and will be great for new tanks looking for a way to increase their survivability and boost it in PvP areas. An extra 11% damage reduction that can be added on top of any named buff is a valuable option.
Lucent Citadel Trial Armor Sets
All new trial sets from 12-player PvE activity Lucient Citadel will become one of the most powerful options in the coming months. Both support Xoryn’s Masterpiece, and Lucent Echoes sets will find their use in PvE and PvP areas. Especially strong is Mora Scribe’s Thesis, a new DPS light option for players looking to boost their critical chance and damage done.
Light Armor:Mora Scribe’s Thesis
Medium Armor:Slivers of the Null Arca
Light Armor:Xoryn’s Masterpiece
Heavy Armor:Lucent Echoes
Mythic Sets
Heavy Hands:Rourken Steamguards
Almost 100% damage reduction is a powerful option for any player looking for a defensive set, which is only a one-piece item. The cooldown is something worth considering, but if you’re able to reliably trigger the proc effect, you have a solid defensive option in both pvp and pve modes.
The Shadow Queen’s Cowl is an interesting set for players who like sneaking and maybe a little roleplaying while questing. It won’t become a meta set for any modes, but playing around in ESO with this gear may be fun.
Necklace:The Saint and the Seducer
This mythic is like a one-item Daedrick trickery set commonly used for a long time in ESO PvP. The Saint and the Seducer apply one bonus at random, significantly boosting the defenses of the wearer.
