'Assassin's Creed Unity': A Guide To The Best Weapons And Armor

There's a huge focus on customization in Assassin's Creed Unity, and there are more options for the player than in any other game in the series. In previous titles, customizing an assassin was more for looks than anything else; in Unity, having the right gear and weaponry can make the difference between completing a contract or reloading a checkpoint.

That being said, there's a ton of stuff to see and do in Ubisoft's take on Paris, and it can be a little overwhelming. Finding the right gear can be tough, but don't worry - this guide will help you find the best stuff in the entire game: from hoods to belts to firearms, this is the best equipment Assassin's Creed Unity has to offer.

These may be some of the best pieces of gear in the game, but there's plenty of room for experimentation. Players can choose to focus on extra health, more power, extra ammunition and huge stealth bonuses. Assassin's Creed Unity definitely isn't perfect, but the customization features are one of the best parts of the game.
