Medusa is a very similar set to Mother's Sorrow in The Elder Scrolls Online. Medusa is one of the most popular Magicka DPS sets because it gives you Spell Critical and Minor Force. It allows for more flexibility when you are making a build. If you are new to the game and want to get this powerful set, you are in the right place. In this guide, BulletHound and Fantasy New show you how to get the Medusa set.

Where To Find the Medusa Set

The Medusa set is available as a drop in the Arx Corinium Dungeon. In the normal version of the Arx Corinium Dungeon, you can get a piece with blue quality, but the drop rate of a purple piece is very low. In the veteran mode, you will obtain a purple piece. If you only need the weapon, I recommend running the normal mode because it’s much easier. If you need the jewelry, you have to run the veteran mode.

Drop Rates

Dungeon bosses and mini-bosses are guaranteed to drop one of the pieces when defeated. The mini-bosses will drop a hand, waist, or feet set piece. The Dungeon bosses will drop either a chest, shoulder, head, or leg set piece. There are six bosses in Arx Corinium, giving you plenty of opportunities to obtain a missing piece in the set. 

The final boss of the dungeon, Sellistrix the Lamina Queen, will drop weapons or jewelry.

The normal mode dungeon bosses will drop blue-quality items, and the veteran mode dungeon bosses will drop purple-quality items.

If you are a solo player, it will be hard to get the gear, so it will be easier to run the dungeon with friends or a group. If you are a Tank or Healer, it will be much easier to find a group. 

Treasure Chests in Arx Corinium also have a slight chance to drop armor, and Fantasy New's video shows you the Treasure Chest locations in Arx Corinium. However, the amount of Chests you can find per run has been reduced to two since the Blackwood patch. Therefore, I recommend running the veteran mode if you're farming the Chests only because veteran Chests are of higher quality, and the chances of getting set pieces are higher.

Medusa Set Stats and Usage

The set's bonuses boost your Spell Critical. Its fifth piece bonus adds more spell critical and grants you Minor Force, at all times, increasing your Critical Damage by 10%. With Medusa, you do not have to use skills like Trap Beast or Accelerate to get the Minor Force buff, allowing you to slot in another ability that does more damage.

Since this is a Heavy Armor Set, Magicka users need to use its weapons and jewels or a combination of two body pieces and jewels to use it effectively. 

That is how to get the Medusa set in The Elder Scrolls Online. If you found these videos helpful, don't forget to subscribe to BulletHound's and Fantasy New's channels. 

Repairing or improving your weapons and gear will cost you a lot of TESO gold, but making gold can be time-consuming. If you don't like spending hours and even days grinding, buying some gold from a top-ranked ESO gold seller, MmoGah is a great way to enhance your gameplay with little effort.
