Assembled artifacts in Heroes of Might and Magic V.

If artifacts were easy to collect, there wouldn't be any point in playing...

All artifacts drop according to an algorithm – one artifact from a set appears in each shop (on the map, artifacts from sets, like the Necromancer's Amulet, are practically impossible to find). The system works like this: you, while on your territory and having one shop, get one of the artifacts there, for example, the Dragon Crown, and your opponent, with a shop on the other side of the map, sees an artifact from the same set, but, for example, the Scabbard. (Of course, these artifacts can drop at different times). Utopias remain... There, of course, they can give you anything... So, it turns out:
1. 10% chance that you will capture all the shops and not miss a single artifact.
2. 10% chance that you will find a Utopia that gives you the artifact you need.
3. And another 10% chance that you will find the artifact you need on the map.

That's a total of about 30%, which is insignificant for collecting a set... It's not serious, and you can't rely on it.
Of course, all of this is just my opinion...
