Since Assassin’s Creed became an RPG, armor and weapons have become even more important than in the first games. Armor is a very important part of Assassin’s Creed Valhalla. Because players can play differently, finding the right armor can make all the difference.
Each piece of armor in Valhalla has bonuses that help the player and how they play. Most of the time, these buffs have to do with stealth, close combat, or long-range damage, and they can be found on anything from common armor sets to legendary ones. Here are some tips on choosing the best armor in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla.
Magister’s Armour Set
Even though it looks pretty badass, the Magister’s Armor set is the best fit for this bottom spot. What’s up? Its best benefit can only be used at night. The Magister Armor’s biggest benefit for early-game players who want more melee-focused armor is that it increases melee damage.
But since it can only be used at night, players must move quickly around enemies during the day. Even though it boosts ranged damage, the conditional melee damage boost makes it not worth the trouble to complete the set. It’s not clear why this is a buff, to begin with.
Hunstman Armour Set
The Huntsman Armor set is part of the Way of the Wolf. Like the Raven Clan Armor, it can be found early in the game. The main difference between it and the Raven Clan set is that it is best for players with ranged weapons.
Among its benefits are a speed boost and a boost to ranged damage from 20 meters and farther away. This is perfect for people who would rather use a bow from a distance than try their luck with a closer approach.
Hidden Ones’ Armor Set
The Hidden Ones’ Armor set is a tribute to the first Assassin’s Creed games and the typical armor that would have been worn back then. As players can suppose, its buffs include a boost to headshot damage and assassination damage when the player is crouched and undiscovered for ten seconds.
Players must go to all of the Hidden Ones’ offices in England to get this armor, making it a little harder. But it is the perfect armor for Assassin’s Creed players who want to be completely stealthy.
Thegn’s Armour Set
Critical hits from Thegn’s Armor set do a lot of damage. These are for players who wish to inflict as much damage as possible as fast as possible. Its unique fanatics include a higher chance of getting a critical hit when you dodge and an extra boost to critical damage.
This is better than the Galloglach armor because it does not depend on the chance to deal critical damage. Even though it slows Eivor down, it’s the best armor for any mission or side quest with a long melee battle.
The Mentor’s Armor Set
The Mentor’s Armor set is another nod to the classic Assassin’s Creed armor in Valhalla, but unlike the Hidden Ones’ armor, it doesn’t focus on killing. Instead, it focuses on quick attacks and even faster retreats.
This armor is great for players who like to sneak up on enemies and attack after a critical hit. It also makes the player faster, so they can quickly escape by planning another sneak attack. Even though this style of play might not be right for everyone, this armor is on the list because it looks great and is easy to find.
Einherjar Armor Set
Assassins who are good at hiding would do well to put on this armor, which looks like it won’t help but does. But the player will have to pay 1,500 Helix Credits to get the whole set. This light armor lets you move quickly and easily when fighting in one of Valhalla’s many skirmishes.
On top of that, the set gives players an attack boost for each kill they make, which can be stacked up to three times. It also lets you get a little health back after every third kill. All these things can make Eivor a dangerous enemy that is hard to beat.
Byzantine Greek Armor Set
As a relic from the time of Rome and (later) Byzantium, you might expect to encounter something like this in Assassin’s Creed Odyssey. But as part of the Anger of the Druids release, this old armor makes its way to Ireland, which is a long way from where it was made.
You can trade at a trading post to get the set in all its glory in the end. Even if you only have two of its five pieces, getting a critical hit gives you a useful buff that makes your armor stronger. When you collect all five pieces, your melee damage and health increase even more.
Niflheim Armor Set
Those who like to beat their enemies with brute force should look at this beast. Even though it costs 2,000 Helix Credits, it should be worth it for warriors who like raw power. The chance of getting a critical hit is higher after each kill when you wear this set of icy armor.
This bundles three times, so if Eivor gets hits, he quickly becomes a powerhouse. It also boosts critical damage that can be anywhere from 15 to 45. It also has one of the best shields in the game and a flail that can destroy everything in its path.
Thor’s Armour Set
Many people would think Thor’s Armor set would’ve been number one, but the reality that it’s so hard to get tends to make it an easy number two. If you’re going for a melee build, you’ll do well if you wear Thor’s armor, just like the wonderful thunder god himself.
This armor is great for people who want to use hammers and shields because it is designed to stun enemies. It gives you a chance to stun an enemy and makes you faster when you stun them.
