The Elder Scrolls Online is a popular MMO video game with a ton of PVP and PVE content. With every new update and expansion comes a few extra armor sets that you can obtain, and a large portion of these equipment sets are craftable in unique forge locations.
Crafted sets are easier to obtain than most other types of sets, especially if you have a crafting character that has learned many of the traits found within this MMORPG video game. These are the best equipment sets for each main build type in ESO and where to craft them for your for your warrior.
Updated on May 20th, 2022 by Michael Caruso: Item sets in The Elder Scrolls Online offer unique bonuses that aren't obtainable any other way. You can earn item sets in lots of different ways but crafting them is the easiest, although you have to be an advanced crafter to create some of them due to the trait research requirement. We originally left out some amazing item sets that can help you to deal more damage and survive in difficult content. Here are a few more craftable sets that are a lot of fun to use.

Crafting Table Location: High Isle
Required Traits: Seven
Druid's Braid is one of the most unique sets in The Elder Scrolls Online. Unlike most gear sets that offer up to five bonuses based on how many pieces you wear, Druid's Braid offers a bonus for every piece - up to twelve pieces in total. Each piece grants you extra resources, which is great if you never want to run out of them in combat.
Although Druid's Braid won't directly buff your damage or increase your healing output, it can be useful for a tank since you'll get around 4,000 of each resource from the set in total. It's also good if you need to fill a few extra open slots but don't have room for a full set.

If you're wearing armor that has the Divines trait, then your Mundus Stone's ability will be stronger, making the Twice Born Star set even more powerful to use.
