Equipment Set Basis

Focuses On Assisting The Role Of Characters

The sets in this list focus on boosting the effectiveness of a given Character to help them fulfill the role they're best at. For example, Attackers will be given weapons that primarily boost their damage output and Support characters will have their elemental mastery and energy recharge prioritized.

Check out All Character List & Roles here!

Set Effects Are Focused On Artifacts

The higher the rarity of an artifact, the stronger its base stats are. The set bonus itself, however, will be the same regardless of rarity. If you don't have the rarity suggested, you can opt to use a lower rarity version of the same set.
