Your ultimate guide to every weapon and armor piece in Ashen. Learn about stats, minimum skill requirements, and special abilities to optimize your build.
Hey there! So, you're diving into Ashen and wondering about the gear, right? It's super important to know what you're picking up. You'll find weapons and armors mostly by taking down enemies, but you can also snag some from shops. Keep an eye out for enemy drops, especially from tougher foes like Ettins – they can sometimes drop gear that's way better than anything you'll find for sale, even up to +3 on a weapon if you're skilled enough to beat them!
Before you can equip certain items, you'll need to meet a Minimum Skill Level (MinSkLvl). Think of it like this: if a weapon needs a minimum Axe skill of 31, you'll need to have at least 31 skill in Axes to even pick it up. If you're below that, it's just not gonna happen. This applies to all gear, so keep an eye on those skill requirements as you level up!
