Rewards, upgrades, and the Reaper armor set
You can obtain rewards and upgrades from Pierre or any of his agents. These perks and items cost Silver Deniers, and some won’t be available until you’ve increased your Infamy rank further.
The upgrades panel shows you the stuff that can strengthen the rebel soldiers who are backing you up:
| Upgrade | Effect | Cost |
| New Recruits | Adds more rebel fighters to your squad. | 200 (level 1) |
| Melee Training | Upgrades two rebels into swordsmen to increase their effectiveness. | 400 (level 1) |
| Spoils of War | Melee fighters upgrade their pitchforks into spears. | 400 (level 1) |
| Ranged Reinforcement | Adds more rebel ranged attackers to your squad. | 200 (level 1) |
| Keen Eyes | Upgrades two rebel ranged attackers into marksmen to increase their effectiveness. | 400 (level 1) |
| Stolen Equipment | Ranged attackers train as archers; their slings are turned into bows. | 400 (level 1) |
| Field Supplies | Accepting a solo mission fully replenishes your arrows, rations, and adrenaline. | 500 (level 1) |
| Oblivious Target | Slightly reduces the perception radius of solo mission targets. | 500 (level 1) |
| Friends in Low Places | Reduces the size of enemy squads during solo missions by 1. | 700 |
Apart from upgrades, you can also use Silver Deniers to purchase items. Examples include rations, arrows, materials, cosmetics (i.e., hairstyles and tattoos), runes, and even a Rebel Raven skin for your feathered friend.
Perhaps a reward that you’re looking forward to is the Reaper armor set. The costs range from 400 to 750 Silver Deniers. Certain armor pieces become available as you increase your Infamy rank (the chestpiece itself only appears once you’ve reached the cap at Infamy rank 4). Meanwhile, you’ll obtain the Reaper’s Bracers automatically once you reach Infamy rank 3.
Wearing the full armor set provides the following perks:
- Restore some health after a successful assassination.
- Time slows down longer when you’re spotted by an enemy.
Anyway, since I’ve talked about Infamy ranks, let’s discuss how to level up quickly in the next part of our Assassin’s Creed Valhalla: The Siege of Paris guide.
