Set Dungeons were added to the game in [[Patch 2.4]] in January 2016. They are special, custom-designed dungeons that each correspond to a particular class [[Item Set]] by characters geared in the corresponding item set. Groups may attempt them, but if one person fails an objective, it invalidates the whole run. Credit might not apply to all who run, more tests are needed. There are 24 set dungeons, one each for the 24 item sets, 4 per class.

Set Dungeons were added to the game in [[Patch 2.4]] in January 2016. They are special, custom-designed dungeons that each correspond to a particular class [[Item Set]], and can only be entered, solo, by characters geared in the corresponding item set. There are 24 set dungeons, one each for the 24 item sets, 4 per class.  
  
 
Set Dungeons are non-random in layout and difficulty, (the difficulty of the particular game does not affect Set Dungeon content), and each presents a specific challenge. Players must complete the dungeons within a short period of time (4:30) while achieving several objectives. These always relate to the Item Set that dungeon is themed around, and require things like: killing all enemies or all elites with the special skill of that set, not running out of resource, maintaining a buff for at least 90 seconds, etc.

The reward for completing a set dungeon comes in the form of achievements, rather than any radical drop of gold or items. There is also a special banner sigil unlocked with each completed set dungeon, and finishing suites of them may result in additional achievement awards.

When all the monsters are defeated, a window pops up with the details of the run. A portal out of the dungeon is then opened. If the player uses a town portal inside the set dungeon, the return portal will place them back at the entrance portal to the dungeon, allowing for quick resets.

Revision as of 19:53, 18 October 2016

Natalya's Set Dungeon entrance portal.

Set Dungeons were added to the game in Patch 2.4 in January 2016. They are special, custom-designed dungeons that each correspond to a particular class Item Set, and can only be entered, solo, by characters geared in the corresponding item set. There are 24 set dungeons, one each for the 24 item sets, 4 per class.

Set Dungeons are non-random in layout and difficulty, (the difficulty of the particular game does not affect Set Dungeon content), and each presents a specific challenge. Players must complete the dungeons within a short period of time (4:30) while achieving several objectives. These always relate to the Item Set that dungeon is themed around, and require things like: killing all enemies or all elites with the special skill of that set, not running out of resource, maintaining a buff for at least 90 seconds, etc.

Set Dungeons are tricky, but not risky. The monsters are not very high level (corresponding to about Torment 4) and dying in a Set Dungeon (even in Hardcore mode) simply fails the challenge and resets the player to the dungeon entrance. Players can attempt the same Set Dungeon repeatedly, in the same game, until they triumph or give up.

The reward for completing a set dungeon comes in the form of achievements, rather than any radical drop of gold or items. There is also a special banner sigil unlocked with each completed set dungeon, and finishing suites of them may result in additional achievement awards.


Finding Set Dungeons

Set Dungeon Tome offers lore clues.

Character who are geared out in all six pieces (or five + RoRG) of any of the 24 class sets can enter the related Set Dungeon if they find the entrance. Once a character is wearing gear with the six piece set bonus, a monster may randomly drop a lore book giving a hint about the location of the entrance to the appropriate Set Dungeon. (Or a player can always get the lore book via the Tome of Set Dungeons.

These lore keys are not required to enter -- players don't click the lore to open the portal or anything like that -- and the lore clues have no purpose or value other than as interesting tidbits.

Each of the 24 Set Dungeons has an entrance in a set location, and can only ever be entered in that spot. The Set Dungeons reset after each trial, and can be attempted repeatedly in the same game.
