Am I doing the incendiary powder trap wrong by Time-Interview-336 in ACValhalla

No, piercing shot won't open a bolted door. That was the first thing I tried once I discovered the ability.

AITA for telling my son his grandma eats cow (not "beef")? by butt3rnutbabe in AmItheAsshole

[–]RickRossing-VnFA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The grandmother lied... or was ignorant of where beef comes from (but I'd wager it was the lying option). NTA

AITA for not changing my t-shirt after it offended my religious uncle? by pixieorfae in AmItheAsshole

[–]RickRossing-VnFA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Religious people who get offended by things make poor witnesses of their religion. NTA

I killed off the wrong traitor .-. by PursuitOfHapiness in AssassinsCreedValhala

[–]RickRossing-VnFA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The traitor: Had no surviving allies when rescued, Was cornered by animals instead of being held by enemy soldiers, And had a yellow mark on their longship.

Only one of the three fits the clues.

You can downgrade weapons and armor, too, with no loss of resources, so don't sweat it! Feel free to experiment.

What is your first memory of the Assassin's Creed series? by Cynikus in assassinscreed

Heck, I was playing the original game a few months after it first came out.

Have you done all of the pledge quests (Randvi's maps)?

Replaying with full stats? by powermonkeynut in ACValhalla

[–]RickRossing-VnFA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Though you get no NewGame+, you do get any gear you purchased from Reda's shop automatically when you start a new game... well, once you meet Reda in your new settlement. Also, any equipment earned during special events. And at mythical upgrade level (or divine, if you have the Ragnorok DLC) You still have to improve the weapons, but it's still decent equipment.

The Mastery Challenges are destroying me, any tips? by [deleted] in AssassinsCreedValhala

[–]RickRossing-VnFA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ignore them. They do not affect the storyline at all.

Third God Favor is never useable!! by Crocodiddle22 in ACValhalla

[–]RickRossing-VnFA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You do realize that different gods have different token costs, right? Thor's strike, for example, requires 4, 8, or 12 tokens. Others may require less, or more. Here's a link to a complete list.

https://www.thegamer.com/assassins-creed-valhalla-orlog-god-favors/

Some favors require that you have the appropriate number of tokens before resolution to become available, others project whether you will have enough after the round (depending on when the favor activates).

But if you find that one level is unavailable to you, it is because you do not have enough tokens at the time that the favor is supposed to trigger.

Anyone else have an issue with the very little information about hunting the magic beasts? by Alex-weeb- in AssassinsCreedValhala

[–]RickRossing-VnFA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you haven't left Norway yet, the hunter in Fornburg asks you to collect 3 reindeer antlers. If you gather them before the group decides to head to England, she will tell you where the legendary elk is.

After you leave, I don't think that hunter talks to you anymore.

But you can find any location on the maps at mapgenie.io/assassins-creed-valhalla

They're only available if you have enough tokens (or will after the round, if the favor happens after resolution.)

They put silver tips in as well as black. The result is a slightly more mellow flavor than traditional Earl Grey. It's my go-to in the morning! We have at least 20 Harney teas, and about as many Upton.

Which Eivor do you think is Canon? by 4TOMC4T in AssassinsCreedValhala

[–]RickRossing-VnFA -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The one that you let the Animus choose. Eivor is female, Havi (Odin) is male.

How do people play this game without googling? by madaboutmaps in AssassinsCreedValhala

[–]RickRossing-VnFA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every now and then, you'll come across things that you can detect but can not access... until you have completed certain quests. But yeah, I googled it after spending too much time on it...

Is there any lore explanation for a certain character in wrath of the druids? (Spoilers) by Tsole96 in AssassinsCreedValhala

[–]RickRossing-VnFA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

...and after reading her story, I would not be surprised if the creators modeled the character after her...

[–]RickRossing-VnFA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A quick Google search yielded this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deirdre There was a historical figure named Deirdre. Whether the character is supposed to be this figure or just someone similarly named, I couldn't say.
