This article gives you an overview of the five-piece and two-piece item sets from the trials or raids, as they can also be called.

What are Raids anyway? This content is designed for up to 12 players: In the normal difficulty mode, you can get a good feel if you have no raid experience yet and slowly try out the processes and mechanics.

The next difficulty level is aimed at players who have already gained some experience in raids. In other words, the veteran mode is for players who have reached the maximum level for gear and such.

But keep in mind that the raids have usually become noticeably more difficult each year to keep up with increasingly powerful players, better sets, and combinations, as well as further increases in the maximum champion level. Therefore, it is advisable to first take a look at the raids in Kargstein.

In veteran mode with hard mode, it is essential to coordinate as a group, develop tactics together, and implement them as a team. And each individual player must know their character and abilities well.
