Since its release in the summer of 2018, Raid: Shadow Legends has become one of the most popular free to play mobile games. However, despite its worldwide fame, players still find themselves confused as to how some parts of the game work, such as relentless gear.
Essentially, Relentless Gear is a gear set that players can get from events and tournaments. When equipped on a Champion, Relentless Gear has an 18 percent chance of giving that Champion an extra turn immediately after their turn.
Relentless Gear can be quite powerful when equipped on the right champion, but knowing who to equip it on and how to use it has been equally confusing for players. Read on to learn more about what Relentless Gear is, how it works, how to get it, and which Champions to use it on.

What Is Relentless Gear In Raid Shadow Legends?
Relentless Gear is a type of artifact set that can be found in events or by winning tournaments. They are known for being somewhat difficult to get. Each set of Relentless Gear has multiple individual pieces of gear in it, including the following:
- Weapon
- Helmet
- Shield
- Gauntlets
- Chestplate
- Boots
How Does Relentless Gear Work?
When equipped on a Champion, it will grant that Champion those primary and sub stats, as well as an 18 percent chance of getting an extra turn immediately after their turn. No other set grants the extra turn chance, so Relentless Gear is often used when players want to cycle through turns and use skills as much as possible.
When combined with skills that also grant extra turns or effects that decrease skill cooldowns, it can allow the wearer to go through multiple turns and provides the potential to heal their entire team or kill the enemy’s team.
It is important to note that when an extra turn occurs, the chance of getting consecutive extra turns drops 45 percent each time. This means the chance of a consecutive extra turn will go from 18 percent to 9.9 percent, then down to 5.5 percent, and so on.
Primary and Sub Stats
Each piece of Relentless Gear has its own primary stats, as well as sub stats. Some pieces of Relentless Gear have multiple primary stats while others will only have one, but all pieces will have multiple sub stats. Here is a list of all of the primary stats for each piece of Relentless Gear:
- Weapon: ATK(+)
- Helmet: HP(+)
- Shield: DEF(+)
- Gauntlets: C.RATE(%), C.DMG(%), ATK(+), HP(+), HP(%), DEF(+), DEF(%)
- Chestplate: ACC(+), RESIST(+), HP(+), HP(%), ATK(+), ATK(%), DEF(+), DEF(%)
- Boots: SPD(+), HP(+), HP(%), ATK(+), ATK(%), DEF(+), DEF(%)
Here is a list of all of the sub stats of each piece of Relentless Gear:
- Weapon: HP (+), HP(%), SPD(+), C.RATE(%), C.DMG(%), RESIST, ACC
- Helmet: HP(%), ATK(+), ATK(%), DEF(+), DEF(%), C.RATE(%), C.DMG(%), SPD(+), RESIST, ACC
- Shield: HP(+), HP(%), DEF(%), SPD(+), C.RATE(%), C.DMG(%), RESIST, ACC

- Boots: HP(+), HP(%), ATK(+), ATK(%), DEF(+), DEF(%), SPD(+), C.RATE(%), C.DMG(%), RESIST, ACC
In summary, each piece of Relentless Gear has a set of different stats that will provide additional buffers and effects to the extra turn ability. This means that even if the extra turn is not triggered, the Relentless Gear will still be providing benefits to that Champion wearing it.
How To Get Relentless Gear
Different kinds of artifact sets can be found in different campaigns, missions, and dungeons. However, Relentless Gear is special in that it is the only artifact set that can be gained from tournaments. It cannot be found in dungeons or by completing missions and campaigns. This has made Relentless Gear notorious for being hard to get.
Sometimes, Relentless Gear will be available during special events. However, the most reliable way to get Relentless Gear is from doing tournaments.
Best Champions For Relentless Gear
It is recommended to use Relentless Gear on Champions that can get an extra turn, speed up the team, or that have buffs where you want a long uptime. Relentless Gear works best when combined with other skills, buffs, and effects that give more extra turns or help with skill cooldown.
Ideally, Relentless Gear would be used on a Champion that already has extra turn abilities, which could result in multiple turns consecutively. Here is a list of Champions that have extra turn abilities:
- Hordin
- RelickKeeper
- Robar
- Seeker
- Cruetraxa
- Marksman
- Whisper
- Athel
- Jizoh
If you do not have a Champion with an extra turn ability, you can still use Relentless Gear on a Champion that is able to heal or defend your team. Additionally, Relentless Gear can work well on a Champion that will speed up cooldown time or counterattack. Here is a list of other Champions that pair well with Relentless Gear:
- High Khatun: speed up the team
- Apothecary: speed up the team
- Religuary Tender: buffs for a long uptime
- Doompriest: healing and cleanse
- Valkyrie: counterattack and shield
- Bad-el: healing
Conclusion
Relentless Gear is only as helpful as the Champion it is equipped on, so be sure to choose a Champion with skills that will be most effective if an extra turn is triggered. Be sure to pair Relentless Gear with a Champion that can maximize healing and attacking so you can take out the enemy efficiently and effectively.
