The idea of an Item Set is that 2 or more items, together, have properties that are greater than simply the sum of their parts.

  • Prior to that expansion Item sets were only considered to be non craftable armor that matched by look and name. these have been listed under Legacy Item Sets for reference but when combined offer no addition benefits unlike the newer Item Sets.
  • When you Equip a complete Item Set it will change color and you will receive a message The magic of your armor combines to assist you!

Legacy Item Sets

Common & Rare Pieces

  • Each piece of a set spawns at a different rate. There are common pieces and uncommon pieces for each Set. Prior to the upgrade to Swoop, reports indicate the odds for finding a Set Item was 1/300. As for assembling a Set on your own, the world may never know.
  • It's been alleged that some pieces are associated with particular monsters (other than the Monstrous Interred Grizzle Set); any information on this aspect of Item Sets would be appreciated.
  • Typically, Armor Sets have some pieces that are available from "normal" named Mondains Legacy monsters and some pieces that are considered "rare" and are available only from the Peerless Monsters, or from the Gauntlet Monsters in Doom, or from Champions at Champion Spawns. During the Mad Mage/Blackrock Detector event, these items also appeared on the corpses of the ethereal forms of the Shadowlords.
  • The 2 weapon sets called the Juggernaut Set and the Marksman Set, are found from Peerless, or from Doom Gauntlet only.
  • The table below of select Item Sets indicates the relative supply of the individual pieces.


Set Name Common Pieces Rare Pieces
Hunter's Garb legs, gloves Helmet, sleeves
Death's Essence tunic, legs, gloves helmet, arms
Elven Leafweave Legs, Gloves Tunic, Arms
Assassin tunic, arms gloves, legs
Greymist arms, gloves tunic, legs
Myrmidon legs, gloves, arms gorget, tunic, bascinet
Honor Plate arms, gloves, gorget tunic, legs, helm
  • With the exception of the Blackrock Detector set, all of the pieces in the weapon sets mentioned above are considered "rare."
