Need help with the 'An Eye for an Eye' quest in Assassin's Creed Odyssey? We've got you covered with a step-by-step guide to stealing the obsidian eye and completing the mission.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First things first, you'll need to locate Markos. He's moved from his vineyard to a spot northwest of it. Your trusty eagle, Ikaros, is perfect for this – send him up to scout and pinpoint Markos's exact location.
  2. 2
    Once you've found Markos, head over and chat with him. He'll lay out a plan to get enough drachmae to pay off the Cyclops, which, ironically, involves stealing from the guy himself. Your objective is to infiltrate the Cyclops' Lair and swipe a fancy obsidian eye that's inlaid with gold. The lair is located northwest of Markos's vineyard, so keep that in mind.
  3. 3
    As you get closer to the lair, you'll notice a whole bunch of thugs hanging around. To avoid getting bogged down fighting everyone, use Ikaros again. This time, scout the area to find the exact spot where the obsidian eye is kept. Once your character spots it, they'll mention it, and you can then plot the most direct path to it.
  4. 4
    After dealing with the guards (or sneaking past them), you'll need to enter the house and grab the obsidian eye. It's sitting in a white pouch on top of an ornate table.
  5. 5
    Alternatively, if you're feeling stealthy, you can try to get into the house without fighting anyone. Jump onto the roof and then carefully step down inside near the entrance. You can then leave the same way you came. Just a heads-up, though: even with this method, there's still a chance you'll get caught. Plus, you'll miss out on a good amount of loot compared to taking down the thugs.
  6. 6
    Whichever approach you take, once you've got the obsidian eye, make your way back to Markos. Hand it over, and you'll complete the quest!
Tips
  • Using Ikaros is key for both finding Markos and pinpointing the obsidian eye's location within the Cyclops' Lair, saving you time and potential combat.
  • While stealth is an option, engaging the thugs often yields more loot. Consider your playstyle and priorities.
