{{Item navbox}}Item sets are collections of items in distinct, named groups. Set items have green names and preset stats, and receive bonuses from other items in the set when they are worn together. While some individual set items are tremendously powerful, most are not much better than good magical or rare items. The trick to using Item Sets well is to wear the best pieces from them, or to selectively combine two or more items from the same set to benefit from the partial set bonus.

See the [[:category:set Items|Set Items category]] for a full listing. More information can be found on the [[item quality]] page. The magical quality levels are [[Normal]], [[Magic]]al, [[Rare]], [[Set]] and [[Unique]].

[[Image:x-taebaeks-glory-txt.jpg|right|frame|D2 Expansion, Elite Set Item]]Item sets are hugely improved in the Diablo II Expansion. In D2 Classic, item sets were all comprised of normal items, none of which were especially worth wearing. There were no partial set bonuses, and even the full set bonuses weren't very good, and certainly weren't good enough to be worth tying up 3 or 4 or 6 of your inventory slots.

In the expansion all the original 16 item sets are much improved by the addition of substantial partial set bonuses. The item types are still all regular and none of those old sets will serve a combat character into nightmare or hell, but they can be useful for a spellcaster.
