How Armor works in Assassin’s Creed Shadows
Armor Sets in Assassin’s Creed Shadows consists of two gear pieces – an armor and a head piece. For Naoe, the armor pieces are light, for Yasuke – heavy. Naoe’s head piece is called Headgear and those are often various masks or hoods. Yasuke is wearing Helmets or Bands.
Character-specific inventory
Each character has their own unique selection of gear and you cannot mix and match them between Naoe and Yasuke.
Rarity Tiers
Each armor piece above common grade always comes with an engraving. The quality of items is defined by their level, which you can upgrade (costs resources) and rarity tier, which you cannot change.
The game makes an effort to match the gear you loot to your current level. The higher your level, the higher tier rarity items you will find. The top tier is Legendary.
What are Legendary Sets
Legendary sets are special piece of gear available only from a specific location or source, not as a random drop. They always come with a unique Legendary Engraving. Legendary armor parts usually have higher stats than the lower tiers, if compared at the same level.
How to change an item’s appearance
You can use the built-in Transmog feature to alter the appearance of any gear piece and replace it or parts of it with something else you own. This allows you to keep using lower-level gear that you outgrow quickly but love its appearance.
We have a thorough guide on how gear works in Assassin’s Creed Shadows, which you can read for more in-depth overview and explanation of everything else you need to know. We also have a complete catalog of all Legendary sets available in the game.

How to get the Set
You can loot both of the pieces for the Ship Captain’s Legendary set from legendary chests by clearing Castles in Omi. The two castles are medium-to-large sized, so prepare for a challenge.

You can loot this mask from the legendary chest in the main building of Azuchi Castle in Omi. The Oda Keep Viewpoint is right on top of that building, but you have to take out the 4 Samurai Daisho in the castle.
Ship Captain’s Gear Location
You can loot Ship Captain’s Gear from the legendary chest on the third floor of the main building in Sakamoto Castle, in Omi. You have to find and take out 3 Samurai Daisho to unlock the chest.
