Crafted Item Set

A  can be made by blacksmithing, clothing and woodworking and gives special bonuses to the weapon or armor crafted. Crafting these requires that the player has researched a few different traits already, but doesn't affect which bonuses are given to the set. To gain the bonuses, the player must wear a given number of set pieces (often 3 pieces). These sets can only be crafted and certain locations scattered around the world and different bonuses are found at different crafting stations.

Since the player is able to craft 7 armor pieces in total, along with weapons (including sword and shield), it is possible to wear 9 items with set bonuses. If this means it's possible to have one set of 5 items (with 5 item bonus) and 3 other items of the same set, is not yet confirmed.
