Overview

Very Rare IO Sets (aka "purple" sets, after their rarity color) are IO sets that only drop as level 50 recipes. They provide stronger enhancement bonuses and stronger set bonuses than normal, under the heading of Superior. Their set bonuses are available at all levels even when exemplaring to a level where the power the set is placed into is unavailable, like PvP IO Sets. To balance these strengths, Very Rare IOs can only be slotted by level 50 characters, and every single one is Unique.

Any critter that is capable of dropping a level 50 IO has a chance to drop a "purple". This includes, but is not limited to, level 47 minions, level 46 lieutenants, and etcetera. Giant Monsters, Monsters, and Underlings will never drop a "purple".

As of Rebirth Issue 2 "purples" can also drop for 50s when exemplaring, as a reward in many Super Packs, for completing a Master of challenge, and as an option in the reward table when getting a very rare Incarnate Component. Drop rate for "purples" are also increased in incarnate content include Itrials and Dark Astoria.
