Assassin's Creed Valhalla: 14 Tips & Tricks The Game Doesn't Tell You
4. Don't Forget About Your Bow
With the selection of melee weapons out there, it's easy to get caught up in the world of hand-to-hand combat. There's nothing better than pulling off a perfectly-timed dodge and following it up with a flurried counterattack, after all. The importance of ranged combat in Valhalla cannot be overstated though, with those more interested in button mashing missing out on a pivotal in-game ability.
You see, pulling back on your bowstring will actually highlight an enemy's weak points in orange, and if you're skilled enough to hit them, you'll take a large chunk out of the enemy's stamina.
Since shots like these will often cause the enemy to be stunned, allowing Eivor to finish them off with a stunning strike, this strategy shouldn't be ignored. So if you've been battling with a difficult enemy, you know what to try.
