Set bonuses not gained as expected

I have a monk who has 4 pieces of shenlongs on and a ring of royal grandeur however the set only gives me the 2 piece bonus. after some testing i found that equipping two pieces does not grant a set bonus as it should instead i get the 2 piece bonus when equipping at least 3 pieces and I don’t get the 4 piece bonus even if I equip 4 pieces and 1 psuedo piece (ring of royal grandeur) so effectively five pieces. please help.

According to your Profile it shows you are getting the 4-piece bonus from having 4 pieces of the Monkey King’s Garb (Sunwuko) Set equipped. This is as it should be and you don’t need the Ring of Royal Grandeur to receive those bonuses.

You are wearing 1 piece of the Patterns of Justice Set. You do not get the 2-piece bonus for that, even with the Ring of Royal Grandeur equipped.

The Ring of Royal Grandeur only works when you equip 2 or more pieces from the same Set.

  • If a Set only has 2 pieces, you cannot get the 2-piece bonus by equipping 1 piece plus the Ring of Royal Grandeur.
  • If a Set has a 3-piece bonus, you need 2 pieces equipped plus the Ring of Royal Grandeur.
  • If a Set has a 4-piece bonus, you need 3 pieces equipped plus the Ring of Royal Grandeur.
  • If a Set has a 6-piece bonus, you need 5 pieces equipped plus the Ring of Royal Grandeur.

Shenlong’s Spirit is a 2-piece Weapon Set. There aren’t 4 pieces to this Set. And, as stated above, you cannot equip 1 piece of a 2-piece Set plus the Ring of Royal Grandeur to get the 2-piece bonus.
