Animus shop question

[VISIONARY]

Hey guys,

I really like the game and I was wondering after seeing the Animus shop if it's generally possible to find the gear (sets. weapons and so on) also ingame without buying something? I was surprised that you can buy stats based gear. I thought the items in the shop would be just cosmetics.

Ty for answers.

are you talking about the modern day out of the Animus clothing like the wolf tshirt Basim wears etc?

Or do you mean the Ubisoft store where you use helix credits you buy from ubisoft to shop at there store for item's like navel sets, decorative building items, armours and weapons and tattoo schemes and new bird and animal types ?

...

I know three ways:
- Currently you get a free shop item per week, load a play, open inventory, at top right the shop you probably name Animus shop, click on it, check at bottom there's a free item click to get it in game, it's refreshed every Tuesday I believe.
- In game there's a kid offering quests giving Opals and selling items to buy with Opals, those items comes form Ubi Shop (Animus shop), one item is refreshed each day, quests giving 5 opals are re generated each day, other items are refreshed each week, a quest giving 20 Opals is regenerated each week.
- Go to your ubi account, select the game, at left select rewards (or challenges I don't remind), and quote there are achievements, they'll allow get a sort of store money to get special rewards, not sure if they are sold in Ubi shop too, but they aren't in game otherwise. Those achievements are refreshed each week, so you need achieve them before the time elapse and there's new challenges after a week.

Not at all, they are just non necessary for many of them (weapons/armors) but good to take at least for diversity to improve in game loot a bit meh overall but also many can be good extra power options, and for many others like tattoos or suits (don't confuse them with armors) and other stuff yeah it's cosmetic.
