Artifact sets are the heart of Olden Era's strategic depth. They don't just slightly boost a hero's stats like single artifacts — they radically transform your playstyle, unlock new tactics, and let you adapt to any situation. Collect a full set — and your hero gains unique abilities capable of turning the tide of an entire campaign!

What are sets and how to collect them?

The principle is simple and brilliant: the game features artifacts (if you don't know what they are — read here). Each artifact belongs to a specific set — an additional category. Some artifacts do not belong to any set.

How to see a set? After finding an artifact from a set, simply hover over it — the set name and all bonuses granted upon completion will be displayed.

How do set bonuses work?

Minimal sets (2 artifacts): Equip both on the hero — an additional set bonus activates on top of the individual artifact effects.
Expanded sets (up to 8 artifacts): Bonuses activate in stages — usually at 3, 5, and 8 items (numbers may vary).
All bonuses stacking: They do not replace each other — when the full set is assembled, they work together, creating powerful synergy!

Why do sets change everything?

Complete transformation of playstyle
Imagine Tranquil Glass — an artifact that fully restores the hero's mana every day. Perfect for magic-focused heroes with large mana pools: use powerful adventure spells to speed up the game pace or spend massive amounts of mana on devastating combat spells that were previously unaffordable.
Breakthrough in late game
After level 20, hero development slows down — each new level costs a fortune and gives minimal power growth. Sets allow you to break through these limits, massively amplifying the hero. They help catch up to a lagging opponent or solidify an advantage, making your army unstoppable.

Sets add variety and replayability, turning every game into a unique challenge.
