Aetheric shields

Aetheric shields are named set items with fixed bonuses. Aetheric is a pale-blue rarity, not a material. Each piece belongs to a Sigil set.

Wearing 2, 4 or 6 pieces of the same set unlocks additional powers. These set powers work online and are inactive in duels. See Every set and its bonuses for their effects.

Aetheric gear comes from specific bosses, world events or the Sigil Broker, depending on the set. It cannot be crafted or modified through the Mages Guild's shard services. The table below lists each piece and where to obtain it.
