10 Character Builds That Broke Recent Video Games
2. The Way Of The Raven - Assassin's Creed Valhalla
Since its reboot with Origins, the Assassin's Creed series became much more focused on role-playing elements, and that continued with the release of Valhalla back in 2020. With hundreds of perks branching across three different skill trees, the possibilities for building a character are almost endless. However, one of these trees stands out as massively more overpowered than the others.
The Way of the Raven acts as the stealthy way of playing Valhalla, and the ability to take down entire fortresses without ever having to fight any enemies directly is all too overpowered for an Assassin's Creed title.
Skills such as Advanced Assassinations allow players to take down high-level targets instantly, while Breakfall and Brush With Death grant them the ability to correct movements and slow down time with a successful dodge.
What's more, The Way of the Raven has so much more adaptability than the other two skill trees in the game, with how players can use a weapon such as the War Hammer. This powerful melee weapon gives players the ultimate escape if their stealth approach fails, giving them a solid backup option that other builds completely lack.
