Elisdon Altar

Complete the Elisdon Altar Mystery in Assassin's Creed Valhalla! Learn where to find small Bullhead fish and how to offer them for a Skill Point.

Alright, so you've stumbled upon the Elisdon Altar and it's asking for something specific, right? No worries, this is a pretty straightforward Mystery in Assassin's Creed Valhalla. It's located south of your settlement, Ravensthorpe, just across the Nene River. The altar needs ten small Bullhead fish. Sounds simple enough, but finding them can be a bit of a chore if you're not prepared.

Where to Find the Fish:

Your best bet for catching these small Bullhead is the Nene River itself, especially near the Ravensthorpe dock. Now, the game doesn't make it super easy – there are a bunch of other fish swimming around, and you need to specifically snag the 'small' Bullhead. Keep an eye out for fish that swim in smaller groups, are noticeably smaller in size, and often have a yellowish hue. They tend to hang out closer to the river banks, so that's a good place to start looking.

Fishing Tips:

• Bow and Arrow: You can shoot fish directly from the water with your bow. It's quick, but honestly, it's a bit of a waste of arrows if you miss or shoot the wrong type of fish.
• The Fishing Hut: If you've progressed a bit and built the Fishing Hut in your settlement (you need to be Rank 2, and it costs 600 Supplies and 45 Raw Materials), you'll unlock a fishing rod. This is way more efficient!

Using the Fishing Rod:

Once you've got the fishing rod equipped (access the action wheel by holding 'G', then select the rod), you can cast your line. Use Odin's Sight to spot the fish first, then aim your cast. When a fish bites, mash the Space Bar to reel it in. Here's the tricky part: while you're mashing, you also need to use the W, A, S, and D keys to steer the fish. Basically, you want to pull the fish in the opposite direction it's trying to swim to prevent it from snapping your line. It takes a little practice, but it's much better than wasting arrows.

Completing the Offering:

Once you've managed to collect all ten small Bullhead, head back to the Elisdon Altar. Make the offering, and you'll be rewarded with a shiny new Skill Point. Nice!
