Mastering Transmog in Assassin’s Creed Shadows: Equip Better Looks , Keep the Stats

Assassin’s Creed Shadows is finally out and has met with mostly positive reviews despite many controversies. The game, just like all the previous ones, offers a wide variety of cool gears that you can acquire to buff up your stats while looking sharp.

Unfortunately, it also features the evergreen gamer dilemma of whether to go for the gear with better stats or the one with the better looks. However, the good news is that you can solve this problem by simply “transmogging” to keep the stats of one armor while maintaining the looks of another!
