AC Valhalla’s third DLC: Be a God for once
The third DLC of Assassin’s Creed Valhalla no longer focuses on the worldly concerns of the Vikings, but delves even deeper into Norse mythology. At a press event, Ubisoft recently presented what Eivor or Odin in “The Marks of Ragnarok” expected.
After making Ireland and France unsafe as Eivor in the previous expansions, you are now heading to the kingdom of the dwarves, better known as Svartalfheim. Of course you don’t do that as Eivor, but as Odin. The Allfather is looking for his son Baldr to save him from the fire giants and their leader Surtr. The fire giants have invaded Svartalfheim and are now oppressing the dwarves.
The new map with its main and side missions and other activities should give you more than 35 more hours can employ and are about a third the size of England from the main game. Another innovation is the Arena of the Valkyries. In this battle arena, you can face off against familiar enemies again.
New skills and a combo weapon
In addition to a new storyline, the expansion also offers fresh gameplay elements. This includes a new type of weapon called Atgeira polearm common in the Viking Age, which thanks to a combo system particularly good attack timing rewards. Your equipment can be upgraded to a new level, but this does not only increase the stats. Weapons and armor get a new socket for special ones Odin runes. These augment the new divine abilities that are a key new feature in The Mark of Ragnarok.
You want to quickly find a special set to be ready for the world of the gods? You can find the armor here:
As Odin, you can absorb the powers of slain enemies and then use new abilities. The artifact named “Hugr-Rip” had a total of five slots in the demo shown at the press event. The skills can be improved with the dwarves. With the power of the raven you can transform into one and traverse Svartalfheim in the air for a limited time. the Power of Muspelheim grants you the powers of the fire giants. This makes you immune to flames and lava, and you disguise yourself as one of the giants and can move around undisturbed. the power of rebirth raises dead enemies to fight at your side. However, the artifact can only hold two active abilities. So when you find a new power in an enemy, you have to forego another.
