How to find materials to upgrade weapons in Assassin's Creed Valhalla

1. How to find a weapon in Assassin's Creed Valhalla

Unlike Assassin's Creed Odyssey, enemies do not drop weapons in Valhalla. Instead, look for the yellow Wealth Markers marker on your map, specifically the ones that resemble a cloaked assassin. They indicate that there is a chest with armor or a weapon inside. You'll often have to solve puzzles or face off against a tough foe to get your hands on that chest, so make sure you're ready.

After opening the chest, you will receive a piece of armor or a weapon. Notice the little sign that appears when you view a weapon in the menu, it will be marked with a crow, wolf or bear. They correspond to three fighting schools in Valhalla: Stealth, Ranged and Heavy. This is important because in the skill menu, you can purchase the Way of the X buttons, which provide the ability to enhance equipment marked by the mark of that class. For example, players with skills in the Golden Raven will deal much more damage when using a Raven weapon than a Bear weapon.

The best approach is to find the weapon you like to use that corresponds to the school of skill you are applying. Remember that the skill tree can be reset for free in the pause menu, but weapon upgrades are permanent and irreversible.

After you have chosen a weapon that corresponds to your class, go to the blacksmith. If you have left Norway, there is another blacksmith outside the Longhouse where you can use the crows to find this place. When you go to England and have your settlement, quickly build a tent for the blacksmith. When construction is complete, you will find it on the left side on the main road between the pier and the long house. Talk to the blacksmith and he will give you a prompt to upgrade your equipment for a price.

Upgrading weapons consumes resources. Players can earn resources by finding the Wealth chest markers on the map, with symbols that look like 3 gold bars. Smashing these chests will give you Carbon Ingots, Nickel Ingots, and Tungsten Ingots that you can use to upgrade your weapon's rank. Each rank changes the weapon's appearance and usually adds a position for the runes. Runes are picked from the aforementioned tough enemies and the Wealth chests, scattered throughout the camps and monasteries you can raid across England.

3. How to upgrade weapon stats in Assassin's Creed Valhalla

After you've upgraded your weapon rank, you can also upgrade its stats at any time via the Inventory menu (accessed by pausing the game). Hover over items in the inventory and right-click to upgrade its damage, speed, stun, and critical attack rate. This will require some amount of Leather and Iron Ore, with the consumption of additional Titanium and Fabric at higher levels. Upgrading weapons in the forge with more advanced ingredients will upgrade the stats better than using the basic ingredients.

Leather and Iron Ore can be found everywhere in the world. As long as you have a habit of looting enemies, locations and buildings, you will always collect a large amount of these 2 ingredients. Titanium and Fabric normally appear in settlements later in the game, but you can also obtain them by opening special chests and defeating the mini-bosses you encounter across the UK.

4. How to farm ingredients in Assassin's Creed Valhalla.

The premium resources used to level up a weapon like Carbon, Nickel and Tungsten Ingots are limited and determined by Wealth markers on the map in each region. Players can also earn some materials by completing quests, such as providing animal parts to Hunter's Shack in exchange for resources.

On the other hand, you can farm some of the more common resources. Leather can be harvested from animals, so go hunting if you start to run out of skin. Iron Ore can be found in shiny Obsidian rocks on the slopes and you can smash them to get iron ore with your weapon. Fabric is housed in special chests, usually in solid buildings, and Titan can be found all over the world, though you need a little extra luck.

If you want your storage to always be rich in resources, ransack every house you pass by and embark on regular raids with your Viking team. Search for fortified camps, castles and monasteries (denoted by the ax symbol) and wipe out that place once you have successfully dealt with the occupants. Follow these rules and you'll never find yourself throwing a knife into an ax-wielding war in Assassin's Creed Valhalla.
