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 equip six artifacts and three accessories, each with a unique function:

Artifacts:

• Weapon: Increases Attack (ATK).
• Helmet: Boosts Health Points (HP).
• Shield: Enhances Defense (DEF).
• Gauntlets: Features variable primary stats.
• Chestplate: Features variable primary stats.
• Boots: Features 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 in RAID: Shadow Legends can be combined, allowing a single Champion to equip three 2-Sets, a 4-Set, and a 2-Set while still reaping the benefits of each Set's bonuses. If you're using Variable Sets, you can even mix an odd number of pieces and still enjoy the Set Bonuses. These bonuses are cumulative; for instance, wearing three pieces of the same Set, like the Life Set, will amplify the effect threefold—from a 15% HP bonus to a 45% HP bonus.

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 broad spectrum of effects, such as skill adjustments (like the ability to apply debuffs) or behavior alterations (like gaining an extra turn).
• Accessory Sets can provide various benefits, such as skill modifications (like preventing a skill from going on cooldown after use) or behavior adjustments (like enabling counterattacks when attacked).
