'''Item sets''' are a feature introduced in the [[Mann-Conomy Update]], which applies new attributes to the wearer when all items in a set are equipped, such as greater damage resistance or immunity to headshots. There are currently ten item sets; five originated from the [[Polycount Pack]], and another three were later added in the [[Australian Christmas]] update, leaving the [[Engineer]] as the only class to currently lack his own item set. Seven more packs were released in the [[Über Update]]. The item sets introduced in the Australian Christmas update do not require the corresponding hat in order for the set bonus to activate.
 
  
Hats required for the item set bonuses that were introduced in the Polycount Pack were given guaranteed [[Crafting|crafting blueprints]]. The Polycount set hats require four [[Crafting|Refined Metal]]s and any [[weapon]] from the set of which the player wishes to craft the hat.

'''Item sets''' are a feature introduced in the [[Mann-Conomy Update]]. Depending on the set, a cosmetic effect may be applied to the wearer when all the items are equipped. There are currently 73 item sets; the five [[Polycount Pack]] contest winners, three [[Australian Christmas]] sets, eight [[Über Update]] sets, [[Dr. Grordbort's Victory Pack]] set, the [[Swashbuckler's Swag]] set, nine [[Very Scary Halloween Special]] sets, three [[Australian Christmas 2011]] sets, the hidden [[Eliminating The Impossible]] and [[Dual-Purpose Fruit]] sets, three [[Pyromania Update]] sets, the [[Grand Duchess]] set, eleven [[Scream Fortress 2013]] sets, 11 [[Love & War Update]] sets, 10 [[Scream Fortress 2014]] sets, the [[Sixties Sidekick]] set, and the [[Monster Mash-Up Pack]].
  
== Polycount sets ==
+
The Polycount Pack item sets require players to have the set's [[cosmetic item]] equipped to activate the item set bonus. All other sets, while they require their respective cosmetic items to complete them, do not bestow a set bonus. All set cosmetic items can be [[Crafting|crafted]] using four [[Refined Metal]] and a weapon from the set the desired cosmetic item belongs to (for example, 4 Refined Metal and a Soda Popper would make a Bonk Boy).

Most item sets are designed around a central theme or strategy that relies on using the weapons in the set together. For example, the [[One Thousand and One Demoknights]] set for the [[Demoman]] is designed for pure melee combat, while the [[Airborne Armaments]] set for the [[Soldier]] rewards launching foes into the air by providing strong ways in which to finish them off before they land.

'''{{Patch name|6|18|2014}}''' ([[Love & War Update]])
 +
* Added the "Retro Rebel", "Wicked Good Ninja", "Federal Express", "Ronin Roaster", "Fast Food Firestarter", "The Sons of Arsonry", "South of The Border", "Texas Tech-hand", "Builder's Basics Kit", "Straight Shooter", "Automatic Pilot" item sets.
  
* Due to how the bullet vulnerability is calculated, certain non-bullet weapons deal 10% more damage to a Gas Jockey's Gear Pyro. This includes the [[Syringe Gun]], the [[Chargin' Targe]], and most [[Taunts#Special Taunts|taunt attacks]].
+
'''{{Patch name|9|17|2014}}'''
*Snipers who have the entire Croc-O-Style Kit equipped can still die from headshots if they have around 1 health point. This is either a bug, or a misconception caused by the set bonus description.
+
* Added the "Isolationist Pack" and "Isolated Merc" item set.
*Despite that the crafting screen will present the player with a "Fabricate Set Headgear" prompt when four refined metal and a weapon from the ''Hibernating Bear'', ''Expert's Ordinance'' or ''Medieval Medic'' set is placed in the craft boxes, the Big Chief, Scotch Bonnet and Berliner's Bucket Helm all lack specific crafting recipes and cannot be obtained this way. This is because these hats are not required to obtain the bonus in their respective sets.
 
  
==Trivia==
+
'''{{Patch name|10|29|2014}}''' ([[Scream Fortress 2014]])
 +
* Added the "Rooftop Rebel", "Deep-Fried Dummy", "Sgt. Helsing", "Automated Abnormality", "Forgotten King", "Minsk Beast", "Templar", "Canis Ex Machina", "Reptiloid" and "Manngaroo" item sets.
  
* Some of the sets were given different names by Valve than the original creators chose for them
+
'''{{Patch name|12|4|2015}}'''
** The Hibernating Bear was originally called ''Big Chief Hibernating Bear''. [http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=73181]
+
* Added the "Sixties Sidekick" item set.
** The Medieval Medic was originally named ''The Medi(c)eval Medic''. [http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=73199]
 
** Black Market Business was originally called ''Black Market Heavy''.
 
***The version of this pack with changes closer to the released version was called the ''Mobster Heavy''.
 
** The Man of Honor was originally called ''The Bloody Valentine Pack''.
 
* Due to how [[Damage#Damage vulnerability.2C resistance and blocking|damage resistance]] is calculated, equipping the [[Chargin' Targe]] with the Expert's Ordnance item set results in a total fire damage resistance of 55%. Equipping the [[Splendid Screen]] with the Expert's Ordnance will result in a total fire damage resistance of 30%.

Revision as of 03:15, 24 November 2017

I've seen better sides of beef been run over by a combine.
The Engineer on unappealing sets of items

Item sets are a feature introduced in the Mann-Conomy Update. Depending on the set, a cosmetic effect may be applied to the wearer when all the items are equipped. There are currently 73 item sets; the five Polycount Pack contest winners, three Australian Christmas sets, eight Über Update sets, Dr. Grordbort's Victory Pack set, the Swashbuckler's Swag set, nine Very Scary Halloween Special sets, three Australian Christmas 2011 sets, the hidden Eliminating The Impossible and Dual-Purpose Fruit sets, three Pyromania Update sets, the Grand Duchess set, eleven Scream Fortress 2013 sets, 11 Love & War Update sets, 10 Scream Fortress 2014 sets, the Sixties Sidekick set, and the Monster Mash-Up Pack.

The Polycount Pack item sets require players to have the set's cosmetic item equipped to activate the item set bonus. All other sets, while they require their respective cosmetic items to complete them, do not bestow a set bonus. All set cosmetic items can be crafted using four Refined Metal and a weapon from the set the desired cosmetic item belongs to (for example, 4 Refined Metal and a Soda Popper would make a Bonk Boy).

Most item sets are designed around a central theme or strategy that relies on using the weapons in the set together. For example, the One Thousand and One Demoknights set for the Demoman is designed for pure melee combat, while the Airborne Armaments set for the Soldier rewards launching foes into the air by providing strong ways in which to finish them off before they land.

If a part of an item set is equipped, a list of items in the set as well as which are currently equipped appears when the item is inspected, either in the loadout menu or by other players. Unlike the others, the list for the Eliminating the Impossible and Dual-Purpose Fruit sets remain invisible until all items are worn together. If the entire set is equipped, any effects it provides are also listed.
