How to Get Savage Gear in RAID: Shadow Legends: A Comprehensive Guide

The Savage Set in RAID: Shadow Legends is a highly sought-after artifact set, renowned for its ability to enhance damage output by ignoring a portion of an enemy’s defense. This makes it incredibly effective against heavily armored opponents, especially in the late game where enemy defense stats become a major hurdle. Here’s how you acquire this powerful gear:

The Savage Set can only be acquired from the Fire Knight’s Castle. Unlike gear that can drop from the Campaign, the Savage Set is exclusive to this specific dungeon. Each piece of the Savage set will be either a Weapon, Helmet, Shield, Armor, Gloves, Boots. These pieces will each have a main stat which is fixed per equipment type and a combination of substats.

To obtain Savage gear, you must successfully complete stages of the Fire Knight’s Castle. The higher the stage you complete, the more likely it is that better gear, with higher rarities, will drop. Keep in mind that the drop rates are RNG-based, so patience and consistent grinding are essential. The higher the level of the dungeon you are farming, the higher the chance that the set will be higher in rarity.

You should aim to complete the highest level you can comfortably, and consistently, complete.

Farming the Fire Knight’s Castle

Preparation is Key

Before you start farming Fire Knight’s Castle for Savage gear, it’s important to assemble a team capable of consistently defeating its boss. Key champion qualities include:

• Turn Meter Control: Fire Knight can replenish his turn meter rapidly. Champions who can reduce turn meter can make him easier to control.
• Multi-Hit Abilities: Fire Knight’s shield requires multiple hits to break effectively. Choose champions with skills that hit multiple times per attack.
• Healing and Support: To survive Fire Knight’s powerful attacks, consider adding support champions with healing and shielding capabilities.

Efficient Farming Strategies

• Prioritize Speed: Speed is essential to ensure your team can react effectively and control the fight. Speed stats on your champion will enable you to act more often than your enemy.
• Target Specific Sets: The Fire Knight’s Castle is the only way to obtain the Savage set. When choosing where to farm, focus on this dungeon when Savage is what you are seeking.
• Increase Difficulty Gradually: Start with easier levels to ensure consistent completion, and slowly ramp up the difficulty to maximize gear drops. This will be the most efficient method of farming.

Understanding the Savage Set

The Savage Set consists of two pieces. When equipped, the champion’s attacks will ignore 25% of their target’s DEF stat. This ability makes them incredibly valuable for dealing significant damage, especially in the later stages of the game. When combining the savage set with other damage sets like critical damage you will maximize your damage output.
