Every Legendary Headgear and Helmet you can find in Assassin’s Creed Shadows.
Exploration is very rewarding in Assassin’s Creed Shadows as it can, among other things, net you very good gear which allows you to customize both Naoe and Yasuke.
Furthermore, customization isn’t just cosmetic and can affect your playstyle as each piece of gear has unique stats that give it advantages and disadvantages.
Headgear is one such piece of gear that not only changes how your character looks, but also how they function in stealth and combat. And like other Legendary equipment, Legendary Headgear and helmets bring with them innate perks that set them apart from regular gear.
Moreover, Legendary Headgear can be hard to find if you don’t know where to look.
As such, in this article, we’ve listed all the Legendary Headgear you can get for Naoe, and Helmets you can get for Yasuke, as well as their innate perks and where you can get them.
