What are Artifact Sets in RAID: Shadow Legends?
Artifacts and accessories are essential equipment pieces that enhance your champions' stats and abilities. Each champion can wear six artifacts and three accessories, each with unique functions:
Artifacts:
- Weapon: Increases Attack (ATK).
- Helmet: Boosts Health Points (HP).
- Shield: Enhances Defense (DEF).
- Gauntlets: Variable primary stats.
- Chestplate: Variable primary stats.
- Boots: Variable primary stats.
Accessories:
- Ring: Provides flat HP, ATK, or DEF.
- Amulet: Offers Resistance or Critical Damage.
- Banner: Grants Accuracy, Resistance, or flat stats.
Artifact Sets can be combined, enabling a single Champion to equip three 2-Sets, a 4-Set, and a 2-Set, while still benefiting from the Set Bonuses of each. If using Variable Sets, you can mix an odd number of pieces and still receive Set Bonuses. Set bonuses are cumulative, meaning wearing three of the same Set will triple the effect. For instance, one Life Set gives a 15% HP bonus, while three Life Sets will boost your HP by 45%.
Artifact and Accessory Sets provide a range of bonuses:
- Basic Artifact Sets grant stat boosts to the wearer’s base stats.
- Advanced Artifact Sets offer a wide range of effects, such as skill adjustments (like the ability to apply debuffs) or even behavior alterations (such as gaining an extra turn).
- Accessory Sets can provide various benefits, such as skill changes (like preventing a skill from going on cooldown after use) or behavior adjustments (such as counterattacking when attacked).
