Whether you're looking to tackle Valheim's toughest bosses, find the elusive merchant Haldor, or just stay home and build a better base, Valheim has a seemingly endless supply of things to see and do. Before you venture out, however, you're going to want to make sure you've got the best armor, weapons, and tools available to get the job done.

Being Early Access means that the developers are actively fixing bugs and adding tons of new content regularly. We'll be adding all of those new items as they appear in the game, so be sure to check back here from time to time to see what's been updated!

Armor Sets

Each piece of armor has its own stats and can be mixed and matched to your liking, but some sets provide additional buffs when worn as a complete set. Be sure to consider how you'll be adventuring before you set out. Some armor is crafted at a workbench, while others will require you to visit a forge. Whether you're going for aesthetics or preparing for a difficult fight, make sure you always have the right piece of armor on hand.

Rag set

This is the first tier of armor in the game. All characters start with a rag tunic equipped.
