Why does AC Shadows prevent you from changing equipment? On this guide page, we explain why you can have the option to change gear blocked and what does the Equipping gear is currently restricted message mean. Understanding the problem will allow you to unlock the ability to change Naoe's and Yasuke's equipment.

How to remove the blockade on changing heroes' equipment?

  1. The Equipping gear is currently restricted message appears when you try to change gear to one at a higher level.
  2. A significant limitation in Assassins Creed Shadows is that you cannot equip items of a higher level than he heroes' current level. You must first sufficiently develop the character to reach the required level.
  3. The red background under the experience level number also indicates that equipping a given item is blocked. In the example from the picture, Naoe has not yet reached level 38 meaning she cannot equip a better katana. You must rely on equipment that is at the same level or lower than the hero's level.
  1. Another possible circumstance for seeing this message is when you try to change weapons or armor during a fight. In this case, the message may appear on the main equipment screen (example in the picture), even before entering the menu of specific weapons or armor elements.
  2. The solution in this case is to end the fight - you have to deal with all attacking enemies or lose the pursuit (e.g. by hiding or escaping from a hostile location). Then you will be able to switch gear.
  3. In exceptional cases, the current quest may also block the change of equipment, and then the only way is to complete it. This applies, e.g. to tasks in which you play the past events of the characters.
