Assassin's Creed Valhalla: 10 Best Early Items & Where To Find Them

10. The Incendiary Powder Trap Ability

Every now and again in Valhalla you'll find yourself on a journey of discovery, exploring the lands ahead of you in search of artefacts, wealth, and mysteries. But there is nothing more frustrating than making the trip to a particular marker only to find that Eivor is missing an item or ability needed to get any further. This is why I'd advise you to secure the Incendiary Powder Trap bow ability as soon as possible. Not only is this ability great at taking heaps of health out of enemies, it's also required to make it past many environmental puzzles.

You'll find the Book of Knowledge containing this ability in the small village of Walden, which can be found in the south-easterly region of Grantebridgescire. The church which serves as a home for this Book of Knowledge will be locked up tight though, with Synin's raven eyes or your Odin's Sight revealing that the tough Yeoman enemy patrolling the village is the holder of the key. So kill him, unlock the church, and the ability is all yours.

You will now be able to use this ability to explode all breakable walls found while exploring the English countryside and beyond.
