There are a number of books of knowledge scattered throughout the world in Assassin\u2019s Creed Valhalla, but only a handful of abilities are good for stealth. I\u2019m going to break down the best abilities in AC Valhalla for stealthy players, so you can get them soon and start playing Valhalla like it\u2019s an actual Assassin\u2019s Creed game, rather than a Skyrim with parkour. Let\u2019s get started!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Feign Death (Melee)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This is one of my absolute favorites because it\u2019ll essentially give you a free assassination attempt (aside from the adrenaline cost) – even after being spotted – when fully maxed out. I use this one when fighting a beefier foe and I don\u2019t feel like doing the dodge\/parry dance to take them out. It isn\u2019t really useful until you get both books, however.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thorn of Slumber (Ranged)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Thorn of Slumber is an ability you can make immediate use of, even with just the first book. If you\u2019ve watched my guide on the best bow in AC Valhalla for stealth<\/a>, you\u2019ll know that sleep is a powerful tool in your toolbox.. Well, if your enemies won\u2019t be put to rest by the Needler, this will help. Grab the second book when you can so you can just wreck small camps: You\u2019ll get your adrenaline back easily just by assassinating those you\u2019ve put to sleep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blinding Rush (Melee)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This one is only useful in a handful of situations, but when those situations come up you\u2019ll be glad you had it. Blinding Rush essentially allows you to get around enemies who would otherwise immediately spot you. Unfortunately, the duration is tied to your stamina.. Which you can\u2019t actually increase, and gets drained fast. Just one point in here is enough: You won\u2019t be chaining many assassinations while this is active.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Incendiary Powder Trap (Ranged)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While it\u2019s usefulness for stealth is limited since you\u2019ll alert nearby enemies when your trap explodes, if you combine this with a predator bow and some clever placements you\u2019ll start thinning out the chaff in complicated fights.. But that\u2019s not the best use here. No, Incendiary Powder Trap allows you to blow up anything that would normally react to explosives such as fire jugs, meaning you can get through puzzle locations that much faster. Even just 1 point is useful (although I suggest 2 for the combat related fun).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
