If you are playing Diablo 3 and have chosen the profession of Demon Hunter, then you must be interested in “sets”.Not only do they look great, but they also improve your character’s combat abilities.Today we’ll talk about what sets are available for demon hunters, and the specific effects of each set.
Currently in the game, Demon Hunter has a total of five complete sets, respectively: Predator’s Incarnation, Shadow Attire, Essence of Evil Filth, Natalya’s Revenge and Danetta’s Abomination.Let’s look at them one by one and see which set best suits your current playstyle.
1. Predator’s Incarnation
This is a very “bandit” looking set that includes gloves, shoes, pants, breastplate, shoulder armor, and helmet.
Set effects:
- **2-piece set effect: **
When you release the Battle Pet skill, all the pets you can summon will appear together to help you in battle.For example, your Tracking Arrow, Eagle Companion, and Mechanical Spider will all appear on the battlefield at the same time. - 4-piece set effect:
When you use skills like Elemental Arrow, Flywheel Blade, Shadow Flying Blade, Multishot, or Cluster Arrow, your Arrow Tower will also launch its attack at the same time and increase its damage by 400%.This will instantly boost your output by a huge amount. - 6-piece set effect:
For every Arrow Tower present, the damage of the main skills you use (such as Elemental Arrow, Multi-Shot, etc.) and the Battle Pet and Vengeance skills are increased by 12,000%.In other words, the more Arrow Towers you have, the more terrifying your damage will be!
Suitable for: Players who like to fight monsters with Arrow Tower Stream and Pet Assist.
2. Shadow Attire
The overall dark color of this outfit gives a mysterious and dangerous feeling.The name of the outfit includes Shadow Bind, Shadow Face, Shadow Regicide, Shadow Heel, Shadow Embrace, and Shadow Hijack.
Set Effect:
- 2-piece set effect:
When you use a melee weapon, your total damage is increased by 6000%.Although Demon Hunters are usually long-range attackers, if you want to try a melee fight once in a while, this set is perfect for you. - 4-piece set effect:
The skill Shadow Force gives access to the effects of all the runes, and these effects will always be present without the need to activate them over and over again.This means you can enjoy the benefits of all the runes at once. - 6-piece effect:
The skill, Shadow Flying Dagger, deals an additional 75,000% weapon damage to the first enemy it hits.This is a very high number for quickly clearing elite monsters or bosses.
Suitable for: Players who want to try out melee playstyle, or who like to clear monsters with Shadow Flying Blade.
3. Essence of Evil Filth
The name of this set sounds a bit evil, and it includes Demon’s Grip, Hellwalker, Unholy Leg Armor, Trapped Cage Armor, Evil Tainted Shoulders, and Heaven’s Wrath Regalia.
Set Effect:
- 2-piece set effect:
When using an Energy Generation class skill, you gain an additional 2 Hate Points and 1 Discipline Point each time you use it.These two values are important resources for the Demon Hunter’s skills, so this bonus is very useful. - 4-piece set effect:
If there are no enemies within 10 yards of you, you will receive 60% damage reduction and your attack power will increase by 60% for 8 seconds.This effect is great for staying alive, especially when facing large groups of monsters. - 6-piece set effect:
For every point of Discipline, the damage you deal with Energy Generation, Multishot, and Vengeance is increased by 350%.In other words, the higher the Ragnarok value, the more damage you deal.
Suitable for: Players who like to maneuver around and rely on resource management to produce high output.
4. Natalya’s Revenge
The name of this set has “Vengeance” in it, which means that its theme is counterattack and explosion.The equipment includes the sense of touch, pants, blood feet, memories, embrace, kill and vision.
Set effect:
- 2-piece set effect:
When you hit an enemy with a skill that consumes or generates Hate Value, the cooldown of Rain of Vengeance is reduced by 4 seconds.This allows you to use this powerful skill more often. - 4-piece set effect:
The damage dealt by Rain of Vengeance is increased by 100%.This is a direct effect that enhances the power of the skill, making it even more deadly. - 6-piece set effect:
After using Rain of Vengeance, your damage is increased by 14,000% and damage taken is reduced by 60% for 10 seconds.This is a super burst period where you can output like crazy and hardly get knocked down by enemies.
Suitable for: Players who like to use Rain of Vengeance as a core skill.
5. Abomination of Danetta
This set is the shortest set with only two pieces, Danetta’s Vengeance and Danetta’s Hate.
Set Effect:
- **2-piece set effect: **
The Shadow Wheel Flip skill now consumes 8 Hatred Points instead of the original Discipline Points, and the damage will be increased by 800%.This allows you to use this skill more often and with more power.
Suitable for: Players who like to use Shadow Wheel Flip to run or fight monsters.
