Assassin’s Creed Valhalla Best Armor
In Assassins Creed Valhalla there are many different types of Armor sets present and each of them provide different types of buffs to your stats.
The Armor system in AC Valhalla quite simple and there are several armor sets for different type of playstyles.
How Armors work in AC Valhalla
In AC Valhalla, an Armor set provides boost to different stats which will benefit one of the three playstyles.
The three playstyles in Valhalla are melee, stealth and archery and each armor set provides some special affinity boost to the playstyle.
In AC Valhalla, the Raven armor set provides stealth bonuses, Wolf armor set provides bonuses to archery stats while the Bear armor best suits the melee stats.
However, the bonuses that each armor set provide only come in to effect if you have equipped all the pieces of that armor set.
How to upgrade Armor
The best Armor in AC Valhalla really depends upon what playstyle you are going with. The armor set that you choose can then be upgraded to a really high level.
Armor sets require high level crafting resources which include nickel, tungsten and carbide ingots as well as leather and iron ore.
Once you have the required resources to upgrade an armor piece, you can buff up the stats of each piece individually which also provides an extra stat boost slot for new runes.
Where to find upgrade resources
The rare upgrade materials like Tungsten, Nickel and Carbide ingots can be found in high wealth areas around the map.
They will appear as node of light shaped as mini gold bars on the map when you are near them.
Collecting many of the ingots will require you to defeat enemies or solve some types of puzzles.

Ore and Leather can also be bought from merchants if you have enough gold on you.
