Assassin's Creed Valhalla: the best skills to unlock first

Best general skills in Assassin's Creed Valhalla

These are the best general skills for a balanced play style in Assassin's Creed Valhalla. They give you effective skills in frontal combat and stealth scenarios. Eivor's ranged skills are good, so there aren't many ranged skills in the general list, but if you want some additional ranged skills, scroll down for a list of the best remote skills in the game.



  • Stealth Reconnaissance (Blue)
  • Stompvery hard (Red)
  • Brush with death (Yellow)
  • Advanced Assassination (Yellow)
  • Chain Assassination (Yellow)
  • Speed Attack (Blue)

Stealth Recon allows you to sneak much easier, as it automatically highlights enemies in red when you are crouching and hiding. Stomp very hard adds another move to your arsenal during combat, allowing you to bash an enemy's skull in while he's down. Brush with death is a return ability from Odyssey, which slows down time on a well-timed dodge. Advanced Assassination is a fantastic ability for stealthy players that allows you to assassinate high-level enemies in one hit, resolving a common complaint from previous games. Chain Assassination is a staple of the series that allows you to defeat two enemies at once with stealth. Finally, Speed Attack is an explicit ability that allows you to attack from a sprint, which is a great way to start a fight. These skills are some of the best in the game and will make your arsenal a little more complete.



Best Stealth Skills

These are the best skills for stealthy players in Assassin's Creed Valhalla. You should prioritize these three skills if you are a stealthy player.

  • Stealth Reconnaissance (Blue)
  • Advanced Assassination (Yellow)
  • Chain Assassination (Yellow)
  • Assassin's Cantrip (Yellow)

Stealth Recon is not only one of the best stealth skills in the game, but also one of the most useful in general. Automatically spot enemies when you're crouched and out of sight, which is a huge quality of life improvement. Advanced Assassination and Chain Assassination Improves your stealth destruction skills, allowing you to take down high-level enemies in one hit and take down multiple enemies at once, respectively. Assassin's Cantrip is perfect for those who want to dodge a fight, allowing you to throw a smoke bomb after parrying an attack to help them escape.

Best ranged skills

These are the best ranged skills in Assassin's Creed Valhalla. You should prioritize these skills if you like to use bows.

  • Guided Arrow (Yellow)
  • Charged Shot (Blue)
  • Stun Bow Finisher (Blue)
  • Feather Booster (Blue)

Guided Arrow is a recoil ability from previous games, which allows you to change the trajectory of an arrow as it flies to hit hard shots. Loaded Shot allows you to fire two fully loaded arrows from a hunter's bow that can suffer massive damage if you hit a weak point. Stun Bow Finisher improves the strength of your bow in melee combat, allowing you to perform stuns with bows instead of melee weapons. Use this ability after shooting enemies' legs to immobilize and kill them easily. Finally, Feather Reinforcement is just a quality of life option, as it prevents arrows from breaking and allows you to collect arrows shot from bodies. It's a small change, but it saves you from having to search for more arrows all the time.



Best melee skills

These are the best melee skills in Assassin's Creed Valhalla. You should prioritize these skills if you prefer frontal combat.

  • Stomp (Red)
  • Counter development (Yellow)
  • Last Chance Healing (Blue)
  • Brush with death (Yellow)

Stomp Very Hard is a great skill that you can unlock early on that allows you to deal extra damage during fights, allowing you to stomp enemies you've knocked down. If you're going to be up close and personal most of the time, Counterspell will come in handy, as it gives you the ability to flank enemies when they perform an unblockable attack. Last Chance Healing slows down the time before you die, which can help you get out of a difficult situation. If you're going to be fighting outdoors a lot, this skill can save your life more than once. Finally, Brush with Death slows down time in a perfect dodge so you can land easy hits.


Assassin's Creed Valhalla is now available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X | S, Google Stadia and Amazon Luna.
