Assassin's Creed Valhalla: 14 Tips & Tricks The Game Doesn't Tell You

9. Barred Doors Are Puzzles

Although barred doors are similar to locked ones in that they prevent us from sinking our teeth into the loot they're hiding, they couldn't be more different.

You can identify these doors by using Odin's Sight, which will paint the wooden bar red and show just how the door has been latched shut from the inside. It goes without saying that no amount of keys will help you gain entryway into these barred homesteads.

Once you've confirmed that you're dealing with a barred door, take a look around the homestead and look for anything that might stand out. Barred doorways are puzzles, after all, and require you to find an alternative way to reach the treasure inside. This might be in the form of a hole in the homestead's roof, or a reed like surface which can be shot with your bow to make a gap.

Whatever the way may be, you'll find it. Just try and think outside the box.
