      I feel like the huntsman armor was less meant as a ranged-ability for melee users, than it was intended for people to just not have to really aim while *sniping*.
      Basically it's meant more for people who wanna take people out quickly w/o having to go for head shots.

    • @jumpingaxe3373
      @jumpingaxe3373 Před 3 lety +1

      The hunters set is meant for bosses and especially those mythical bosses such as fenrir. The damage boost from range is highly effective and the speed will allow you to get back into the buff range.

    I own the berserker set and switched to it after playing several other free (in game) sets. I can’t speak to the specific stat increases that the armor buffs provide, but the speed increase after getting hit is very noticeable. With a one-hand axe I was cutting through enemies without much effort, and beating a lot of them to the punch when we attacked at the same time... i.e., landing hits on some enemies who usually have decent defense.
    It’s probably not the best, but my point is it’s better than its tooltip would have you believe.
    I also bought the Niflgard armor and it’s plainly OP. It lets you use so many diamond runes that you basically become a god.

    When you mentioned the Huntsman armor, I want to point out that with a hunter bow and with charged shot, you can one shot about all normal enemies. And strong enemies like zealots or even the legendary animals, will take a bunch of damage without much risk. So if you just stay over 20 meters away and spam charged shot you can take down enemies pretty quick. This is very specific though and might not be a good playstyle for everyone.

    I liked the Hidden One's set fully upgraded, you get it early in London & it helps a lot with stealth play, which I enjoy, but is also necessary if you want to go in regions where you aren't at the right level yet. Sure you can muscle your way in that game, but for some finesse, you need that set early-on (especially for people who just try to melee everything & then go on videos to comment that they hate the new RPG games, because they aren't Assassins...Loll!)

    Excellent guide, as always. I would add that the Berserker set is an early game set, unlocked for most at the very beginning of the game. Therefore I see it normal to be that low tier. Not that it is a bad set, just that it is supposed to be replaced by other sets at some time. Also it looks so cool.

      I like Thegn’s because it’s the best for me against Zealots. Also maybe because of the ruins I have or some, not sure but I get over 50% health back from each kill so my ration never drops below 6.

    Thanks for review, I will say in defence of Berserker gear. I have it from beginning of the game as bonus for Ultimate. I played all AC games starting from AC II. In most of them I prefer fight and Critical hits to assassination 🤷🏻‍♂️.
    Berserker kit WITH CORRECT SET OF RUNES (and most of skills already used), gives me good enough opportunity to solve problems men style - Vikings style! In this kit my Eivor in fight acts like tank with good Armor and Health so it's hard to kill and gives to opponentS great damage and critical hits coming often. Varin's Axe used all time.
    At Pwr 352 I have
    295 Armor
    277 HP
    87 weight
    Melee damage 110
    In same time assassination damage 164. Which gives me good damage assassination (even more from behind - rune used).
    Prim weapon attack 152
    Stun 178
    Spd 56
    Crit chance 94
    Crit damage 48
    Block 140 with Briton shield rune to have fire around. So its restores HP and creates fire.

    @finalfant111 Před 3 lety +1

    The good thing is, like he said, the flashier armor is the most niche vs the simple most powerful, so that is why the feature of the blacksmith to change armor/weapon skins of anything is a great tool to have. So for example, I LOVE the look of the Musphaliem armor. The fire and brimstone look is just epic, but I agree, the need to ignite your weapon to get any benefit is just horrendous. Granted, I have gone most of the game without really using any other armor than that set, but now I am utilizing the skin change ability so I can keep my look but utilize better weapons and armor. I am a huge parry user with dual wield two handers. I annihilate enemies, but it would be nice to use better armor.
