Ludwig II of Bavaria’s Equipment Build
This part is absolutely essential and there are a couple things to mind regarding gear:
Equipment in Heroes of History has different aspects. Each gear item belongs to a slot (hand, chest, hat, necklace, ring) and has a set. When you equip 2 or 3 of the same set items you will get a set bonus.
From here each gear item has a main stat and up to 3 sub stats that are all randomly assigned although some stats can only be on certain items. This is where the big party starts since you literally can’t upgrade all equipment you find and you shoudl ONLY UPGRADE EQUIPMENT WITH THE RIGHT STATS or you will fall behind very quickly.
Below we designed for you the ideal goal, showing you what set a equipment should be and what main stat and what sub stats you want on it as well once they reveal to find the ideal gear pieces for every hero in the game without over-complicating things. Remember, you always see what sub stats you will get, even without upgrading. Do not hunt for the highst here, if the stat fits it will be great for 98% of the players:
