Location of legendary chests in Assassin’s Creed Odyssey are very important because they contain a set of Legendary gear called the Pilgrim’s Set and a Legendary bow and weapon. There are many chests in the game and some of them contain loot that is of epic quality, but there are only 17 legendary chests. It took a long time for us to find just a few because they do not appear in what seem to be very important places in the game world. You are just clearing out one of the POIs and all of a sudden – legendary chest. Pilgrim’s legendary gear set is also great for assassin type players since getting it all will unlock “-40% adrenaline consumed by Shadow of Nyx ability” engraving. In this guide we’ll show you the location of all Legendary Chests in Assassin’s Creed Odyssey and what they contain. This will also spare you some helix credits so you don’t have to buy a map of them in the shop.
