So if you're looking for the best armor in Assassin's Creed Valhalla, just trust your heart. It's not a perfect system, especially if you pour a ton of resources into a set early on only to stumble on another set that looks or suits your build better, but it also means you never have to say goodbye to your favorite looks and stat bonuses. Simply put: if you love how a certain set looks and/or love the set bonus it provides, you can slowly upgrade it to the top-tier Mythical status, it's just going to take time and resources. Doing so increases how many times you can improve each piece individually to juice the basic stats, while opening up new rune slots for extra stat boosts. Rather than trust invisible dice rolls to dole out the truly good stuff, you can simply improve the gear you love the best and carry it with you throughout the entire game.īy collecting special crafting resources like tungsten, nickel, and carbide ingots you can improve the equipment quality (the loot 'rarity') of an item. Why? Because every piece of armor has a long, worthwhile upgrade path. The key to finding the best armor in Valhalla is deciding which archetype best suits your playstyle, then committing to a set of gear that supports it early on.
