Crafted Item Set A Crafted Item Set 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 . More researched traits are required at the stations found in higher level zones . To gain the bonuses , the player must wear a given number of set pieces ( 3 or 5 pieces ) . These sets can only be crafted in certain locations scattered around the world and different bonuses are found at different crafting stations . All sets found in one faction ' s territory can also be found in the other two faction ' s regions of equal level diffuculty . 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 . This means the player can wear either a 5 set - bonus plus a 3 set - bonus or three 3 set - bonuses to maximize set - bonuses . Equipment with bonuses like these can also be found in dungeons and bought with Alliance Points . These are different set bonuses however . Locations and bonuses . Aldmeri Dominion Territory .
