Guide to all weapons and shields in Assassin's Creed Valhalla - where and how to find them, what they look like, what stats boosts they have!

Show

This guide shows you where and how to find all weapons and shields in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla. It offers thorough step-by-step instructions on how to reach each item, how it looks and what its initial stats are. Every single weapon in the game has a unique name and special perks. There are no story spoilers in this guide. If an item is earned through a quest, I have only mentioned its name to give you a reference for when you can get it. Enjoy!

Each gear item in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla belongs to one of three possible groups or “paths”, or “ways”… or simply “category”.

  • Bear Icon Bear Category – usually suitable for open fighting style, works well in combination with the Red Skill Tree.
  • Raven Icon Raven Category – stealthy, quiet and effective, this playstyle takes the most advantage of the weapons and shields in this category
  • Wolf Icon Wolf Category – best suited for ranged gameplay and receives passive boosts from the Blue Skill Tree.

Not just weapons, but Armor sets also belong to one of these three categories. The more passives you unlock from the Skill Tree, the more benefits you will have by using armor sets and weapons from the respective category.

Each item in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla come in one of four tiers and in one of ten available levels. Learn how to level up and upgrade your gear in AC Valhalla from the linked guide.

There are a few different ways to obtain weapons and shields in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla. You can get them as quest reward from the main story path, as reward for side quests, by exploring secret and hidden locations in the open world or by purchasing them from the Ubisoft store.

Weapons from Quests
The items you get rewarded form the main storyline cannot be missed. There are no side-quests in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, so the only other option is to defeat bosses and Legendary Animals. These are not exactly quests, but all belong to a chain of activities you do to get the rewards in the end.

Weapons from Exploration
As you explore the vast open world of England and Norway you will find special gear icons popping up on your compass and on your map. These mark locations of unique weapons, shields or armor pieces. You would not know what item is in the marked location until you open the chest.

Weapons from Shops
As you progress through the game and expand your Settlement, the shops will offer to you more items, including a few weapons and shields. Keep in mind that if an item is listed in this guide and you do not see it in any shop (all shops in each town and city have the same contents always!), you will need to level up your Settlement first and more items will be stocked up in the shops. You will not see the perks of the weapons and shields from the shops until you purchase them. Check them out in the guide below!

Legendary weapons in AC Valhalla
These are all in Mythical tier. I call them legendary, because they are… How else would you call Excalibur or Thor’s Gear or Odin’s Spear? I have very detailed guides on how to get each one of these! They are also included in the lists below, just to complete them!

Weapons from the Ubisoft Store
These come with packs or sold separately. Some items you can purchase for Crowns, which you earn as you play and complete in-game achievements and challenges. The ones sold for Helix credits are not included in this guide, but the ones you can get without spending real-life money are part of the guide.

The guide below contains a complete list and locations of all weapons and shields available in the game except the ones from the Ubisoft store.

I have marked each item with one of these icons in the guide below to help you recognize them easier.

If you are a new player, you might also want to learn the Basics of the game, and everything about Skills and Abilities. There are a ton of other useful guides in the AC Valhalla Guides category here on VULKK.com!

The maps and locations I am showing and the descriptions I am giving should be fairly easy to use. However, I suggest that you get yourself at least a little bit familiar with the map of Norway and England. It would be helpful if you know at least the major regions and the kingdoms.

Bows Locations

Bows in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla are your only ranged weapon slot. The ranged gameplay in this game is by far the best of all recent titles from this series. Even if you don’t enjoy ranged gameplay, it’s worth to have a bow with good perk and runes even as a stats-stick only.

Hunnish Bow (Hunter Bow)

You will get this one very early from one of the main story quests in Norway. It is a Hunter Bow from the Wolf category.

Recurve Bow (Predator Bow)

In the Haervik Shipyard, in northern Rygjafylke.

Recurve Bow Map

Find this hole and go underground. The chest is nearby the wooden ladder as you slide down. The Raven Predator Bow is in it.

valhalla weapons guide

Iron-Cloud (Light Bow)

The bow is in a small room in a a guarded area in the middle of Lunden.

Iron-Clad Light Bow Map

To get to it, you need two keys. First, as you go around the building, climb up on the roof of the neighboring building and shoot the lock mechanism of the front door of the building with the chest.

valhalla weapons guide

To the left from the entrance of the building, inside, you will have to move a heavy object to clear a path to a small adjacent room, where the first key for the chest is.

valhalla weapons guide

The door to the room with the chest is also locked. Its key is outside, on the back of the building next to this one. As you exit, turn right and around the corner. There are three guards nearby sitting and chatting.

valhalla weapons guide

Now go back in to the house with the chest, unlock the locked door, unlock the chest and pick up your new bow.

valhalla weapons guide

Skadi’s Wrath (Light Bow)

The chest’s location is a little to the south from the Sync point in Ledecestre city, Ledecestrescire.

Skadi's Wrath Map

Enter the basement and follow the tunnel. The chest is at the end of the tunnel, on the left side.

valhalla weapons guidevalhalla weapons guide

Longbow (Predator Bow)

The Longbow chest is deep in the Old Lincoln Sewers. Access is through the caves at the Roaring Meg’s Spring, due east from Lincoln and the cemetery.

When you get to the cave, make a left turn. Keep going down.

valhalla weapons guide

You may encounter bandits down there. The chest is not locked or hidden, so you can quickly drop down, pick up the weapon and get out without a fight.

valhalla weapons guide

Hunbeorth’s Bow (Ligh Bow)

This Bear Light Bow is a reward for completing a main quest from the Lincolnscire story arc. You receive it in Aelfgarstun.

Hunbeorth's Bow Stats

Sagittarius (Hunter Bow)

This is a Wolf Hunter Bow and is located in the sewers underneath Jorvik up in the cold north.

Sagittarius Bow Map

If you look at where the icon is on the map, that’s a plain field with a few farms. The item is actually underground. The entrance is through the high tower in the western corner of Jorvik – right where the green arrow of my character is on the map above.

Drop down and enter the sewers. The corridor will lead you directly to the room with the chest. To get to it, you will need to go around, though.

valhalla weapons guide

Turn left and blow up the weak stone wall. There are two guys staring at it. Just blow them up with the wall to save yourself some time.

valhalla weapons guide

At the end of the corridor, there will be another weak stone wall you haveto blow up using a flammable pot or a Incendiary Powder Trap ability.

valhalla weapons guide

Continue down the linear corridor. Cross the room with the wooden scaffoldings and platforms. Another weak stone wall will show up. Blowie, blowie!

valhalla weapons guide

Next section is under water. Swim until the end of the corridor and surface just in front of that “mouse hole”.

valhalla weapons guide

On your left you will see the room with the chest. You have gone all the way to the back side now. On the far end is yet another (final) weak stone wall.

valhalla weapons guide

Move the object blocking the wall. There are a couple of flammable pots near the right wall. Blow it up and get to the chest.

valhalla weapons guide

Arc of Elan (Hunter Bow)

This Wolf Hunter Bow is a gift to you from Bristan for helping him in a quest, part of the Essexe Story arc. Shortly after you complete the quest, you will receive a new letter from him telling him about his new gift to you. The bow is waiting in your room in Ravensthrope’s Long House, right next to the mail box.

Arc of Elan Stats

Death-Skald Bow (Light Bow)

Death-Skald is a Bear Light Bow and can be found under water in the southern part of Hamtunscire. It is near the north shores of the small island at the bottom of the map.

Death-Skald Bow Location Map

The chest is inside stone ruins under water. The entrance is a crack in the wall on the north side of that sunken building.

After you enter, turn to the right and pass through a stone arch. Then once again look to your right. The entrance to the room with the chest is near the head of a giant statue, there is also a floating corpse in front of it.

valhalla weapons guide

The chest is on the bottom. It’s a bit of a long swim, especially if you are doing it for the first time, so be sure to have full breath when you begin your dive.

Death-Skald Bow Stats

Petra’s Arc (Predator Bow)

This Predator Wolf Bow is given to you as a reward for defeating a number of Legendary Animals in the game. To get the item you need to first build the Hunter’s Hut in your Settlement.

Legendary animals are not easy to beat. They are mini-boss battles. This one features adds in the form of regular wolves that the boss calls from time to time.

Spartan Bow StatsSpartan Bow Stats

Daggers Locations

Daggers / Seax are the fastest weapons in the game. They are designed to be dual-wielded and go well with any damage-over-time builds relying on Fire and Poison.

Yngling Seax

This Raven dagger is located in Norway, in Eikundarsund, in the south-western corner of Rygjafylke.

Yngling Seax Dagger Map

Inside the main building of the village, the chest is not guarded, but the area is restricted and you have to be careful of going there early on. It’s in Tier I: Fine, but you can upgrade it, of course.

valhalla weapons guide

Suttungr’s Claw

I covered this one in my Hidden Ones Set Locations Guide, but I will include it here as well, for your convenience.

It’s in the south-western end on the map in Wincestre. In the Venta Belgarum Bureau.

valhalla weapons guide

When you jump in, swim underwater all the way down until you find this room:

valhalla weapons guide

At the end of this corridor you will see a break-able wall section. First move the heavy object to your left to uncover the door behind it. Break the lock on the door to your left. Go through the door to the other side of the next room and pick up a flamable vase. Carry it back to the end of the corridor to the exploding piece of the wall as shown in the image below:

valhalla weapons guide

The final Codex Page and the Suttungr’s Claw dagger are both here in this room. Congratulations, you now own a complete Hidden Ones Set and the Dagger.

valhalla weapons guide

Raven Icon Kopis

This Raven dagger is awarded to you after completing the Suthsexe arc from the main story.

Kopis Dagger Stats

Bear Icon Hundtoth

Type: Dagger
Perk: Increase Critical Chance when low Health (50% HP, +10 Crit Chance)

Hundtoth Stats

Hammers Locations

Hammers are also quite rare sight in the game. They are one-handed weapons and deal a lot of damage. They take the middle ground when it comes to attack speed.

War Hammer

On the same island as the Yngling Seax dagger, in the middle between Eikundarsund and Nottfall is Marauder’s Den. That’s where you will find the War Hammer.

War Hammer Map

Climb up on the big house’s roof and jump to the platform from it. The Chest is on the hanging platform.

valhalla weapons guide

Blacksmith’s Hammer

Located in Lunden, on the top floor of the Bodilsburg Garrison tower, near the west border of the city.

Blacksmith's Hammer Map

Get the key from one of the Captain.

valhalla weapons guide

Climb up the wooden ladder.

valhalla weapons guide

Shoot the weak wooden deck to open access to the upper floor and climb up.

valhalla weapons guide

The chest with the Blacksmith’s Hammer is in the corner.

valhalla weapons guideBlacksmith's hammer Stats

Mjolnir, Thor’s Hammer (legendary weapon)

To get Thor’s Hammer you need to first get Thor’s Armor Set. To get Thor’s full armor set you need to literally complete Assassin’s Creed Valhalla’s story and defeat all members of Order of the Ancients.

Check out this detailed step-by-step guide of How to get Thor’s Armor Set and Hammer Mjolnir in AC Valhalla to find out how to do it. It’s quite a journey!

Thor's Hammer Mjolnir Stats

Shields Locations

Assassin’s Creed Valhalla introduces an interesting new gameplay element – dual-shield wielding. Sword and Board is tradition, but dual-wielding Shields can be incredibly powerful if you pair the two shields that best fit to your build. There are quite a lot of shields available scattered all across the maps in the game!

Hrafn Guard (Light Shield)

This item is in Venonis, in Ledecestrescire, to the west from your Settlement.

The chest is in the north-eastern part, among the Roman ruins. Climb up the wall of that all building. Walk on the rope to the wooden platform, then slide down to the next platform.

valhalla weapons guide

Shoot the lock mechanism on the interior door through the crack in the wall.

valhalla weapons guide

The chest is behind some breakable items on a wooden platform.

valhalla weapons guide

Plank and Buckler (Heavy Shield)

Located in Sutton Hoo in East Anglia. It’s far to the south, near the border with Essexe.

The entrance to the underground tunnels is on the east side of the camp.

valhalla weapons guide

Follow it until you reach the Man at Arms. Defeat him and take the key from him.

valhalla weapons guide

When you reach the stone wall, read the note on the left. It gives a hint as to how to break it – throw a torch at it. Aim higher.

valhalla weapons guide

The chest is right behind it. Wait for the fire to disappear and go get your new Bear shield.

Kite Shield (Heavy Shield)

This Bear heavy shield is in Wandrie, near the Great Ouse River, in south-west Grantebridgescire.

Inside the big hut. The whole camp is full of civilians as well as special types of enemies. You can sneak in quickly if you wish to avoid fighting.

valhalla weapons guide

Briton Shield (Light Shield)

The Briton Shield is in the tunnels beneath the roman ruins in the Temple of Mithras in Lunden.

Its entrance is very easy to find, in the middle of the ruins, but is locked until you progress the Lunden story arc.

valhalla weapons guide

You cannot miss the shield. On your way you have to move this large obstacle to reveal the slide-through hole in the wall and proceed further. It’s really hard to miss the chest since it’s on your pathway for the story quest. You can always come back later, as is the case with all story-related areas in the game.

valhalla weapons guide

Shishi Guard (Light Shield)

The Shishi Guard light shield is in a chest that is locked inside the Cyne Belle Castle on the northern shores of Themse River, in Oxenefordescire.

You will not be able to access the interior of the castle until you reach a certain point in your main story. When you do, the chest will be right in front of you and you will not miss it. I wont say more as to avoid potential spoilers. After you unlock the castle during that mission, you will be able to return at any time and pick up any remaining treasures from it.

valhalla weapons guide

Sarcophagus Shield (Heavy Shield)

The Sarcophagus Shield is a heavy one and is in a cave in the Dhustone Quarry in Sciropescire.

On the side of the cage (free those guys!) there is a crack in the wall. Slide through it, swim a little and surface up on the other end to find the chest on a wooden platform.

valhalla weapons guidevalhalla weapons guide

Blodwulf Shield (Light Shield)

You get this item as part of the main story in Grantebridge.

Drekar Shield (Light Shield)

The Drekar Shield is a light bear shield which before Update 1.0.4 was available at the Shops in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla.

After the patch the shield is no longer available from the town shops. It is now located in the Calleva Outpost in the north-eastern corner of Hamtunscire.

Drekar Shield Map

Drop down in the undeground cells beneath the ancient roman theatre that is now an outpost for soldiers. On the north-east side of the arena there is a hole.

valhalla weapons guide

Once you are down, move the objects that block the weak stone wall, then blow it up with a flammable pot available nearby or use an Incendiary Powder Trap Ability.

valhalla weapons guide

When you enter the small rom, look to your right. Break the pots and move the heavy object to reveal the entrance to the room with the chest.

valhalla weapons guide

The chest is on your right in that dark room, at the feet of a giant roman statue.

Oaken Kite Shield (Heavy Shield)

The shield is in Maeldun, right at the very south-eastern end of Essex.

Oaken Kite Shield Map

The chest is in a two-floor building, but to get to it you need to blow up a stone wall.

valhalla weapons guide

You can do it with an incendiary arrow or with a flammable vase. As the note next to the stone wall explains, all pots have been collected and locked up by one of the brothers from the church.

valhalla weapons guide

You will find the pots all locked up in a small buildint right next to the church. Break that wooden obstacle and jump in from the small hole. Break the lock on the door and carry one pot to the stone wall.

valhalla weapons guide

Get back to the stone wall and throw that exploding pot towards it. The chest is right behind the wall in the small room.

valhalla weapons guideOaken Kite Shield Stats

The Morrigan’s Guard (Light Shield)

In the south-eastern part of Glowestrescire under a small hill there are four caves.

Morrigan's Guard Map

The entrance to the one where the chest is, is near a fire pyre. The chest is locked with three locks, meaning you will need to pick up three keys to unlock it. All three keys are nearby under the same hill. Each one is in a different small cave with separate entrance.

One of the keys is in a cave filled with poisonous green smoke. Use a torch to clear it up.

valhalla weapons guide

The second key is hidden in the next cave under the same hill. Move the heavy object to pick up the key.

valhalla weapons guide

The final key is in yet another small cave, as I said. Break a couple of wooden barriers to reach it.

valhalla weapons guide

Now head in to the cave with the chest. Its entrance is on the north side of the hill, there is a burning fire near its entrance that you can use as a landmark.

valhalla weapons guideThe Morrigan's Guard Shield Stats

Spartan Shield (Light Shield)

The shield is in a small hole under the Old Gravesham Bridge in Essexe.

Spartan Light Shield Map

To get to it you have to use an Incendiary Arrow to break the stone wall on the west side.

valhalla weapons guide

Then just slide through the hole in the wall at the end of the short corridor to reach the chest.

Rune Shield (Heavy Shield)

This Heavy Shield is a reward for completing the quest “Viking for Hire” given to you by Reda. To complete this quest you have to pick up and finish ten contracts. Check out the guide on Reda’s Shop to find out how to do these.

Rune Shield Stats

Bearded Axes Locations (1 hand)

Bearded Axes can be wielded with one hand, in either hand. They can be paired with anything that is also for one hand like a shield, sword or another axe and more. If you have the Heavy Dual Wield Skill from the Bear tree you can dual-wield a Bearded Axe and a 2-handed weapon as well.

Varin’s Axe

Varin’s Axe is granted to you as a quest reward early on in Norway, in the very first main story mission “Honor bound”.

Varin's Axe Stats

Raider Axe

The Raider’s Axe is an early reward from a main quest in Norway.

Housescarl’s Axe

The Housescarl’s Axe is located in the same place where the Huntsman Armbraces are, in Grantebridgescire.

Use the key you have obtained there to unlock access to the chest.

Bear Icon Fyrd Axe

This chest is in Forseti’s Rest long house, in south Jorvik. Once again I forgot to take a screen before I picked the item (I often do that), but Eivor is sitting right on top of the chest in the map image below.

Fyrd Axe Map

Move the large object to access the small area behind it. Break the wooden crate to get the key.

valhalla weapons guidevalhalla weapons guide

Climb up on top of the large object you just moved a moment ago and climb on the upper floor. The chest is behind a wooden paravane.

Fyrd Axe Stats

Raven Icon Bear-Claw

This Raven category Bearded Axe is a reward for purchasing the Season Pass of Assassin’s Creed Valhalla.

Dane Axes Locations (2 hand)

Dane Axes are large axes to be wielded with two hands. If you pick up the Heavy Dual Wield Skill from the Bear Tree, you can use two Dane axes at the same time – one in each hand. In this case, however, the stats and combat performance of the axes will be adjusted accordingly. You will still get the long reach, massive hits and special perks that come with each one of these weapons.

Bone-Biter

This axe is on the small island Ikken Oy in Rygjafylke, in Norway.

Bone-Biter Axe Map

Sepulcher Axe

The Sepulcher Axe is in the Offchurch’s crypt in the south-western area of Ledecestrescire.

Defeat the guard standing in front of the door to get the key.

Aella’s Bardiche

The Aella’s Bardiche Dane Axe is from the Raven Category and is located in the Jorvik Theatre.

Pick up the key from the small cave hidden behind a wooden paravane.

Then pick up a flammable pot from the corner room and throw it at the stone wall.

Move the heavy object and unlock the door to enter.

Battle Sparth

This Dane axe is available in the middle of a camp called Saint Helen’s Spring in west Lincolnscire.

The chest is locked and the key is held by this large guy. Defeat him and pick up the key. He is sitting right next to the chest.

He is sitting right next to the chest usually. Defeat him and pick up the key.

Lagertha’s Axe

This beautiful Dane axe is actually a copy of a weapon from AC Origins. It is available far to the cold north of Northumbria, in Housesteads in Eurvicscire.

Lagertha's Axe Map

The chest is extremely easy to reach. All you need is to blow up this weak stone wall and you will find it in the end of the corridor behind it.

I highly recommend you pick up the Incendiary Powder Trap Ranged Ability. It helps a lot saving you time to search for flammable pots.

Lagertha's Axe Stats

Hemming’s Axe

This 2-handed axe will wait for you in your room, next to your mailbox shortly after you complete the story arc of Snotinghamscire. It is a gift from Vili.

Vili's Gift - Hemming's AxeHemming's Axe Stats

Vordr’s Bite

Another reward for hunting down and defeating Legendary Animals in England.

This 2-handed Vordr’s Bite Axe has no Perk for some reason when you inspect it from up-close. Not sure if it’s a bug to be fixed in a future patch or intended. The weapon does have a perk, actually. And it reads: “Heavy Combo Finisher Hits have a chance to drop a Poison Cloud“

Note: Update 1.0.4 fixed the broken runes slots and the text is clearly visible and the rune slots can now be used as intended.

Spears Locations

Spears are also weapons that require two hands to wield, unless you have the Heavy Dual Wield Skill from the Bear Tree. Spears have a unique combat animations and behavior. They allow you to keep your opponents at a distance.

Fafnir’s Fang

This spear is a reward for defeating a Drangr in a frozen cave in Hildesvini’s Crag. This is in Rygjafylke.

Fafnir's Fang Map

Entrance to the cave is from the south, on the north shores of the lake. To find out more about Erik Loyalskull and the other five like him, check out the Guide to Lost Drengr in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla. Each boss drops a rare and useful loot upon defeat, and +2 Skill Points.

Fafnir's Fang Stats

Fyrd Spear

This spear is in Offchurch in south-western Grantebridgescire.

Get down to the crypt beneath the church. The path leads you underwater. The chest itself is under water.

Cadfarch Spear

This one is related to the main storyline and you cannot skip it. It is a reward for completing one of the main quests in Sciropescire.

Odin’s Spear Gungnir (legendary weapon)

Attention, this segment of the guide describing Gungnir contains story spoilers!

Despite the tigle and ther popular terms used to describe this awesome spear, its tier is Mythical, not Legendary. There is no Legendary Tier in the base game.

To find Gungnir you need to first complete the main story in England. Sigurd will then take you back on a journey to Norway’s Hordafylke, a Power Level 280 area for a series of quests and an ending to the main part of the story of the game. After that you will be able to return to Hordafylke and get the spear.

For a detailed information on how to get the spear, what is so special about it and more, check out the How to get Odin’s Spear Gungnir guide.

Flails Locations

A flail is a weapon consisting of a striking head attached to a handle by a flexible rope, strap, or chain. The advantage of this weapon is its capability to strike around a defender’s shield or parry stance. It lacks precision, but offers spectacle and cool animations while wielding it. Flails are one-handed weapons. They pair nicely with pretty much anything, including a shield, a second flail and so on.

Bear Icon Iron-Star

The flail is in Kjotve’s Fortress. You get there pretty early on in the story and it will be available for exploration since then.

Spinning-Death

The Spinning-Death flail is inside the Trade Depot in Jorvik.

Spinning-Death Flail Map – standing right on top of it

Enter through the roof. The door is not locked or anything, but the place is guarded.

Spinning-Death Flail Stats

Soldier’s Flail

This Flail is in the longhouse in Chepeham in Hamtunscire, a Power Level 240 region.

Once you are inside the house, climb up on the opposide side of the glowing in gold circles marker. I will be a little stingy with images as to not reveal any potential visual spoilers of what is happening around. I did this during the story arc quest.

There is a heavy load you can shoot to release and drop it. This will clear space for you to climb up to the wooden deck with the chest.

Soldier's Flail Stats

Swords Locations

There are not many options for Swords in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla. These most generic weapons are not very popular among the vikings. Great Swords are two-handed weapons that can be dual-wielded if you have the Heavy Dual Wield Skill from the Bear Tree.

Carolingian Longsword (Great Sword)

This two-handed sword is in a Forest Hideout in East Anglia. The chest is in the red hut. Did you know you can dual-wield 2h weapons? Check the AC Valhalla Abilities and Skills Guide for more info.

Doppelhandler

Type: 2H Great Sword
Perk: Heavy Hits on fallen enemies poison them

Excalibur (legendary weapon)

If you thought you have seen it all, then wait until I show you the heaviest and most powerful Great Sword in AC Valhalla – Excalibur! The journey to obtain it is incredible and there is no way I would be able to describe it here. I have a separate very detailed guide on how to get Excalibur in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla. Check it out!

Siege of Paris one-handed Swords in Francia

There are four newly added one-handed swords available in Francia – the new map accessible if you own the Siege of Paris DLC.

Check out the stand-along guide for these new One-Handed Swords Locations from the second expansion of the game.

Siege of Paris Scythe Locations in Francia

There are four Scythe weapons available in Francia. This region is exclusively available to players, who have purchased The Siege of Paris DLC for Assassin’s Creed Valhalla.

I have a whole new guide dedicated specifically to this topic. Check out all Scythe Weapons locations in Francia.

What are the Best weapons in AC Valhalla

It is hard to say if and which weapon is better than the other one in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla. In this game Ubisoft made everything revolve around builds and personal preferences. Still, there are a few fantastic items that stand out from the crowd.

Odin’s Spear is a special find and a unique in its performance weapon, because it has a much longer reach thanks to its perk. This allows you to fight and defeat your foes without ever allowing them to reach you in melee range to attempt to hit you. If Spears are your thing, you should definitely get that one. The downside is that this becomes available after you complete the main storyline in the game. It will surely be useful in the Expansions and if you have any special bosses left unfinished.

Another weapon coming straight from the Legends is Thor’s Hammer Mjolnir. It deals additional Stun damage to foes near you. Thor’s armor set and Hammer are also available only for the EndGame and involve you completing the main story, defeating all members of the Order of the Ancients and a few special bosses.

There is also one very special weapon – the legendary Great Sword Excalibur. If you want to wield the most powerful (and heaviest) Great Sword in this game, you have to get Excalibur. The journey to it is quite interesting and complex!

For the regular game (because these examples above are from the EndGame really) I would suggest you stick with whatever makes you happy and allows you to enjoy your build. I personally went through most of the game with a Raven build, using the Mentor’s Set and Yngling Seax and Suttungr’s Claw from “A Brief History of the Hidden Ones” story quest.

If you like investing into the Bear Skill Tree (red one), you might enjoy the Sepulcher Axe. With the opportunity to turn this monster of a weapon into a dual-wield build and combine it with something else, you will breath flames and cause unseen chaos among your enemies.

The Death Speaker bow is another way for Eivor to restore some HP lost during a tough battle. This weapon is a useful utility, but it is probably only going to be useful against the toughest opponents in the game – the special bosses and some of the Order of Ancients that perform special attacks and are harder to avoid, thus you will eventually get hit more often.

If you are looking for the Best Assassin’s Creed Build, I have my favorite one shared and explained in detail in the Skills and Abilities Guide. Check it out!

There are more coming. If you have a location of something that is not included in this guide yet, please, share it in the comments or via email ([email protected]). I have a bunch more I am working through to add here and I discover new ones still, so I may not have the one you want to share.!

Is the Season Pass worth it for Valhalla?

Purchasing the AC Valhalla season pass can alternatively only cost players $19.99, but the point still stands that for most players, the DLCs are entirely overpriced. Only for AC Valhalla's biggest fans will they truly be worth the money.

What does the Season Pass of AC Valhalla include?

Description. Enhance your Assassin's Creed Valhalla experience with the Season Pass, which includes: - The Legend of Beowulf Bonus Quest: Uncover the monstrous truth behind the legend of Beowulf. Available now. - Wrath of the Druids Expansion: Journey to Ireland and unravel the mysteries of an ancient druidic cult.

Is AC Valhalla Season Pass permanent?

Thanks for getting in contact with your query, unlike a "Battle Pass" for some other games, the Assassins Creed Valhalla Season Pass will permanently unlock this additional in game content as it is released over the coming year.

Will Dawn of Ragnarök be in the Season Pass?

Dawn of Ragnarok is the start of the Year 2 content for Assassin's Creed Valhalla, and so falls outside the content included with the game's original Season Pass.
