From the 1.0 game files: Frost Resistance, rarity and item level are the client's item-card numbers (3 of the 114 are weapons, the rest gear). The files do not say how much Frost Resistance this region asks for, how the numbers on your pieces add up, or how fast Exposed hurts — so none of that is stated here. Warm furniture is in the comfort & warmth catalogue.
Unique equipment in Albaneve Summits (11)
The 1.0 journal collects one-of-a-kind named gear in seven sets, one per region tier. This is the tier-5 set, the Albaneve Summits tier: 11 named pieces.

The rest are not placed objects in the 1.0 files, so they have no pin. Sets, tiers and levels: journal and gear tables of the 1.0 game files (build 1267041).

How to reach Albaneve Summits
The frozen Albaneve Summits lie north of both the Nomad Highlands and the Kindlewastes — climb north from either (the Veilwater Basin and Cinder's Cradle sit further north still on the 1.0 map). Pack cold-resistant gear before the ascent; the 1.0 files have Frost Resistance and Frost Protection values, and the Flame 5 to 6 and 6 to 7 upgrades open the region.
Howling Peak is the highest point on the wiki's map.
What to do in Albaneve Summits
- Upgrade the Flame to 6, then to 7 with a Fell Cyclops Head
- Defeat the Fell Cyclops and Cyclops, both placed in the Albaneve Summits
- Slay the Fell Dragon Youngling: its head is the item for the Flame 7 to 8 upgrade
- Plan for the cold: the 1.0 files have Frost Resistance and Frost Protection values
Top threat: Cyclops — in the 1.0 files it takes Shroud ×1.2 and magical hits ×1.2, but physical hits only ×0.8. The Fell Dragon Youngling takes Fire ×1.2, no Shroud damage, and only ×0.5 from physical and magical hits as a category.
