Atreus has his own armor that offers unique abilities and bonuses. He begins the game with the Tunic of Hope, which offers no bonuses. As you progress through the Journey, three tiers of armor are unlocked at the shops. Only Hacksilver is required to purchase them, and it is well worth the investment to get him into the best available armor. Atreus wears only one piece of armor—either a Vestment, Garb, or Tunic. Each of these has unique bonuses. The Vestment gives him better support abilities, the Garb is for long-range fighting, and the Tunic is best for close combat. Choose the one that suits your playstyle the best, or mix it up based on the current situation.
