In The Elder Scrolls Online, you can acquire Stamina-based sets from different facets of gameplay. Stamina is the primary resource for many builds that require these sets for essential buffs that are often missing from the different classes in the title. These buffs include an increase in the Max Stamina and recovery of your character.
The armor sets in the title are available in three categories: Light, Medium, and Heavy Armor. Stamina-based builds generally use Medium armor sets for their numerous passives that buff the Weapon Damage and Stamina Recovery of classes. That said, let's look at the five best Stamina-based sets in The Elder Scrolls Online.
Note: This list is subjective and solely reflects the opinions of the writer.

The five-piece set bonus of the Spriggan's Thorns boosts your character's Offensive Penetration. It's an essential stat that counteracts enemies' resistance, significantly increasing your damage output.
Even though you receive a buff to Offensive Penetration from teammates in group scenarios, Spriggan's Thorns is an essential set for solo situations.

The following are the bonuses for the Leviathan set:
- Two set pieces: Adds 1096 Maximum Stamina

- The Rift: At Trollslayer's Gully crafting stations
The Hunding's Rage is one of the most well-rounded sets for Stamina-based builds. It provides all the essential buffs like Critical Chance, enhanced Max Stamina, and Weapon Damage, which are extremely useful for classes like the Stamina Arcanist.

To unlock this dungeon, you need Scalebreaker DLC, which can be purchased from the Crown Store for 1,500 Crowns or is accessible via an ESO Plus subscription.
The Azureblight Reaper set inflicts exorbitant Area-of-Effect (AOE) damage in the title. The five-piece bonus of this set is incredibly useful in scenarios where you battle multiple groups of enemies, like in the Endless Archive.

- Two set pieces: Adds 657 Critical Chance
- Three set pieces: Adds 1096 Maximum Stamina

1) Stormfist
The Stormfist is a Monster set in The Elder Scrolls Online. It's a two-piece set which consists of a head and shoulder piece. You can acquire the headpiece by defeating the final boss in the Tempest Island dungeon. The shoulder piece is available from the treasure chests in the Undaunted questline.
Unlike other sets, the Stromfist only requires two set pieces to unlock its full potential, which is a boon to build varieties in the game. It also inflicts high AOE damage and dovetails with all the previously mentioned sets.
The following are the bonuses for the Stormfist set:
- One set piece: Adds 129 Stamina Recovery
