What are Artifact Sets in RAID: Shadow Legends?
Artifacts and accessories are vital equipment pieces that enhance your champions' stats and abilities. Each champion can equip six artifacts and three accessories, each fulfilling unique roles:
Artifacts:
- Weapon: Increases Attack (ATK).
- Helmet: Boosts Health Points (HP).
- Shield: Enhances Defense (DEF).
- Gauntlets: Offers variable primary stats.
- Chestplate: Features variable primary stats.
- Boots: Provides 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 mixed, enabling a single Champion to equip combinations such as three 2-Sets, a 4-Set and a 2-Set, while still benefiting from the Set Bonuses of each. Additionally, with Variable Sets, you can mix odd numbers of pieces while retaining Set Bonuses. These bonuses are cumulative; for instance, wearing three pieces of the Life Set will amplify the HP bonus from 15% to a substantial 45%.
Artifact and Accessory Sets provide a range of bonuses:
- Basic Artifact Sets: Enhance the wearer’s base stats.
- Advanced Artifact Sets: Offer diverse effects, including skill adjustments like applying debuffs or behavior alterations such as gaining an extra turn.
- Accessory Sets: Provide various benefits, such as skill changes that prevent a skill from going on cooldown or behavior adjustments like counterattacking when attacked.
