## Item sets

Item sets, differently from clothing, are not dropped by regular enemies and grant bonus per item found (even before the set is complete). Not all sets are equal; some are rarer and give better bonus.

There are three ways to get set items:

* They are randomly dropped by story bosses;
* They can randomly appear in the shop;
* There's a 100% chance of a collectible being dropped by the boss of every 25th PP level, but only once;
* Some of them can be obtained by talking to people in the gym (see Secret sets).

Also, some stages have a greater change to drop specific collections.

In late game, collection grinding becomes the main way of improving XP and Gold gains, and the main way of progressing, together with meditations spamming. Collections drops are random, but there are ways to improve your chance of dropping them:

* The **Scroll of Recognising Good Stuff** (I didn't mistype it, it's "recognising" in the game) increases the chance for Item Set collectibles to drop from story bosses by up to 100%, depending on the scroll level;
* The **Collection Booster**, buyable at the Emporium for 150 Dragon Tokens, multiplies by 4 the chance to loot collectibles from story bosses for 24h.

### Secret sets

While most item sets are randomly dropped by the bosses, there are some sets that can only be dropped after you have unlocked them. These are the Tarquin's Set, the Shopkeeper's Set, the Wave Fist Master's Set and the Sensei's Set. You may unlock these items by talking to the people in the Gym. Every time you talk to these people, there's a little chance that a blue flash will happen in the screen. When that happens, the set's item will be obtainable by going into the Healing Chamber room and inspecting the trash. After obtaining a set item this way, you will only be able to get the same item again by dropping them from bosses, like normal set items.

Note that the blue flash can only happen for unique dialogues. That means that when a NPC start repeating himself you may need to meditate to be able to have a chance again. That's true for all secret sets except Tarquin's Set. Tarquin's blue flash has a chance to happen at every Tarquin's dialogue that is not a mood dialogue.

### Set level

Set level is the number of times you've completed a set. It may be calculated by the formula:

{\displaystyle setLevel=leastCollectedItem-1}

. Set levels increases the item sets bonus even more, by the following equation:

{\displaystyle totalSetBonus=totalPiecesCollection\times setLevel\times bonusPerItem}

.

Increasing set level also increases the Collection Power by multiplying it by the set level and by the bonus amount of the set. For instance, let's consider a set with a 30% EXP bonus amount:

* At level 2 (1 of each item), Collection Power will be multiplied by 1.3;
* At level 3 (2 of each item), Collection Power will be multiplied by 1.6;
* At level 4 (3 of each item), Collection Power will be multiplied by 1.9;
* And so on...

Note that, for each level, the bonus will be relatively smaller than the previous level. That means that, with each additional set level, the bonus to Collection Power has diminishing returns.

### Collection Power

Collection Power is the power of your collections synergy, and increases even more your collections total bonuses. It's simply a factor that multiplies the your bonuses, composing the final collection totals.

#### Drop Chances

While the exact drop chance of collection items is unknown, you can help figure this out by doing the following:

Keep a running total of your collections items obtained from bosses for each meditation, and right before you meditate divide that by 100 + 5 \* Your Scroll of Recognizing Good Stuff level, multiply by 100 and add that to the total in the left column. If you don't have the Scroll of Recognizing Good Stuff, just add that total directly. Then, add your boss kills for that meditation (NOT boss kills effective) - the highest Planet Patrol level you beat that meditation to the total in the right column.
