Assassin’s Creed Valhallais a sprawling Viking epic, whose expansive content stands out even more when compared to the “back-to-basics"Mirage. This applies to the slew of items players will collect in large numbers during their long journey. Despite Ubisoft pulling back from its long list of weapons and gear inOdyssey, there are plenty of items, resources, and other materials to be found here.

This can make it tough for players looking to make some quick silver inAssassin’s Creed Valhalla, as it’s not always clear which are safe to flip at vendors and which should be (or can be) used. Luckily, even when factoring out the option to pawn weapons and gear, there are plenty of items that can safely be sold in a hurry; even some relatively valuable bits.
4(Big) Fish
At first glance, fishing may not seem to serve much of a purpose inValhalla. It certainly contrasts with the epic, combat-heavy nature of the game. Yet, this seemingly more drab Viking task can pay off in more ways than one. Not only is collecting fish useful inbuilding up a Fishing Hutin the settlement and scoring great rewards like runes, but they can also be sold directly to merchants for some decent silver.
Players will want tobe resourceful and pick the right locations when fishing, specifically aiming to gatherbig fish and quality fish like salmon and mackerel.These larger, more coveted fish prove more resourceful when it comesto their overall value and Fishing Hut requests.
3Animal Parts
Much like fishing, hunting can seem like a more mundane task; though one that yields surprisingly good rewards down the line. Players will want to collect various animal hooves, furs, tusks, and other components to completeHunting Deliveriesat theHunter’s Hut. These will provide rewards that include useful Ingots and rare runes.
But for those who wish to avoid the Hunter’s Hut or focus little on it (as it’s mostly not essential), or have finished their progress on the building — selling the parts to merchants is a good option. Most individual animal parts are fairly cheap on their own, but building a large enough collection can yield ample silver. This is especially the case for relatively valuable bits likeReindeer Antlers,which can bring inseven silver apiece.
These animal parts fall under the"Trade Goods"section in the vendor selection screen.
2Excess Runes
Valhallais rather unique in its stripping down of weapons and gear despite itsrewarding ARPG bent. However, the game’s rune system fills in much of the details when it comes to character progression and customization. As such, there’s an abundance of runes to be found during Eivor’s journey, many of which will inevitably not be needed.
Thankfully, these items can be pawned at various vendors throughout the game. Of course, their value depends on a number of factors — such as their usefulness and whether the variant is of minor, standard, or greater quality. Players will want to opt for selling more valuable runes that include the"greater” tag, as well as diamond runes.
As there are few diamond weapon runes and still fewer diamond armor runes, these items are especially valuable. Just be sure the rune in question is either a duplicate or won’tfit the particular buildthat well.
Players can farm runes fairly simply, by completing Hunter’s Hut and Fishing Hut tasks, going on raids, and plundering chests strewn across the locales ofValhalla.
Greater Rune Of Life
One of the most valuable runes in the game, the Rune of Life, as one might expect, boosts Eivor’s health. The greater variant of thisbumps up health a whopping18.9.However, this can be a good one to sell, given the abundance of armor reinforcements and health rations elsewhere.
Greater Flanking Rune
This is a great option to flip at vendors despite its valuable nature. The greater version of the Flanking rune will addten points in back damage,though this perk is more niche compared to most other weapon runes. Players who are more stealth-focused may want to hang onto at least one of these, though most others will get farther in selling them.
Greater Rune Of Perfection
This runeboosts criticals up to a solid 8.0,which is certainly useful against tougher foes. Yet, it targets a very specific stat that is also covered in part by the Rune of Finesse, which boosts critical chances.
1Trinkets
Even moreso thanOdyssey, the random items known as trinkets are useless aside from their sheer value in silver. Ubisoft even reinforces this notion with a quick-sell feature that allows players to pawn their whole collection of trinkets to vendors no matter how large.
And given the loot and combat-heavy nature ofValhalla, players making a deep run in the game will surely build up a nice collection of these bits — which range from old pillows to bird cages to broken shields. Savvy merchants will have their various parts to salvage, while Eivor will score tens or even hundreds more pieces of silver to apply to more useful ventures.
