In this guide on Assassin's Creed: Valhalla we will go to see where to find all the members of the Order of the Ancients to be eliminated
One of the key points in this chapter of the saga is the Order of the Ancients. This important sect that seeks to upset the balance of the world acts stealthily behind everyone, trying to pull the reins of the world in the direction they want. The Order is made up of 45 members, each of which can be traced throughout the story or even later in the end game, just as it did in Assassin's Creed Odyssey.
Killing all members will allow you to unlock their trophy or achivement, depending on your platform. Of the 45 members, only 13 will be mandatory targets to continue the story and cannot be found outside of the main missions. Only by completing the story will we be able to kill them all. The other 32 members are instead scattered around the world and some, the acolytes, require a good level and good equipment to be defeated.
Defeating them all is also one of the objectives of the questline given to us by Hytham. After building the upgrade Study of the Occult in our settlement we will be able to talk to this character who will give us clues to the whereabouts of two members of the order. Each member killed will provide us a medallion that we can exchange with Hytham in exchange for skills that are otherwise not unlockable. Let's start this guide now on Assassin's Creed: Valhalla and we find out where to find all members of the Order of Ancients.
ATTENTION: the article may contain small narrative spoilers.
General Information - Where to find all members of the Order of Ancients from Assassin's Creed: Valhalla
There are two types of members in the Order: 15 acolytes (click here to see directly where to find them), very formidable opponents that run in specific regions of the map, and 30 members (click here to see directly where to find them) who have fixed positions and are linked to members with a higher rank. Usually it is enough to kill one member to get clues about another. These will be visible on the Order menu page. Some of these might tell us to look for information in a certain place or to beat some specific person in one of the activities in the game.
Finding all the clues, however, is not obligatory for the various members to appear. In fact, these can be found directly in their fixed place. However, some of them will move by walking around that area and will appear before our eyes and those of our crow like ordinary civilians, making it difficult to spot them in the crowd. Here's why it is you need to find all related clues first.
In this guide I will show you where to find all members of the Order of Ancients from Assassin's Creed: Valhalla, we will also report the location of the clues, making it easier for you to find members. To do this, all you have to do is access the relative page in the menu and select them. To get clues about the Ancients at the bottom of the page, all you have to do is eliminate the members who precede them.
Acolytes, on the other hand, have no clues to their position. However, they are marked with the appropriate white helmet icon when they are close to us. All you have to do is get close and scan them to be able to view them on the menu page. In this case you will also see their level and understand if you can face them or not.
In this guide on where to find all members of the Order of Ancients from Assassin's Creed: Valhalla we will follow the order of the relevant page in the menu. For the acolytes we will start on the left side, starting from the top one up to the last one at the bottom. Later we will follow the same order for those on the right side. As for the members instead we will start from the group on the left, we will move to the one at the top left, then the one at the top right and finally the one on the right. Finally we will conclude with the main members who are located below.
An Important Choice - Where to find all members of the Order of Ancients from Assassin's Creed: Valhalla
Before continuing with the guide it is a must pause for a moment on a choice that could "simplify" your life in research, at least that relating to acolytes. To save time, we recommend that you let the acolytes hunt you down. In fact, at the beginning of the story there is a dialogue choice that determines whether the acolytes will hunt you during the game or not. The advantage of being chased by them is that you can easily find them since they don't have a fixed position.
However, hunting will often pit you against formidable opponents, making your life slightly more difficult. Let's see now how to activate this option. During the historical arch relating to Ledecestrescire, the first region with which we will try to forge an alliance, after the battle with the boss Leofrith, you can choose whether to save him or kill him. If you choose to killing it the acolytes will hunt you down. If instead you will spare it, he will reveal the place to look for a parchment with your name to burn. Once burned, the acolytes will not hunt you down.
