Elemental sets are the highest class of armour on this shard. There are four, each of seven pieces: body, legs, helm, gorget, gloves, arms and shield.

Set Armour Shield
Curious 80 35
Powerful 90 45
Ancient 100 55
Flame 110 65

How they are made

The one way in is the elemental hammer. If it is not in your hand the first click equips it; clicking with it in hand opens a window of five sections. The first holds the special ingots, the other four the sets.

You mix the special ingot first (Blacksmithing 90), then forge the pieces from it (Blacksmithing 95). Both are ordinary crafting: materials are spent, not every attempt succeeds, and the skill rises.

The elemental anvil

Both steps happen beside an elemental anvil. There are two, one in Britain and one in Minoc, and neither can be moved. Away from the anvil the window will not open at all, and walking away with it open produces nothing — the distance is measured again at every attempt.

A fixed, well-known place is the point: forging elemental armour should be something you travel for.

Where the numbers sit

The best metal on the ore ladder gives 80 armour. The elemental sets sit above that ladder, with Flame at 110 setting the ceiling. The values are taken straight from the old Elpida.
