*Assassin’s Creed Shadows* returns to the beloved open-world RPG format, requiring you to stay on top of your character and Hideout upgrades to tackle the game's more challenging encounters. Here’s a guide on how to efficiently gather resources in *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*.
How to Get Wood, Minerals, and Crops in Assassin’s Creed Shadows
In *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*, there are three primary methods to collect resources for your Hideout:
- By completing quests: Side quests often reward you with substantial amounts of resources. They are a reliable way to boost your inventory.
- By completing Contracts: This is the most efficient method for farming resources, which we'll discuss in detail below.
- By looting chests: When exploring restricted areas or castles, use the L2 or LT button to scan your surroundings. You'll notice golden and white orbs highlighting chests and other lootable caches. Keep an eye out for large resource caches that you can tag for your scouts to smuggle away.
Completing Contracts
As you progress in the game, you'll unlock the ability to construct a Kakurega building within your Hideout. This structure not only increases your scout count but also unlocks special quests known as Contracts. These are designed to help you gather essential resources like wood, minerals, crops, metal, and silk, all of which are crucial for upgrading your weapons and armor.
To access Contracts, navigate to the Kakurega building in your Hideout and interact with the small table inside. This will display available Contracts for you to accept. Once accepted, locate them on your map, marked by a katana icon. Completing these quests will significantly boost your resource collection, making them indispensable for major Hideout upgrades.
By following these methods, you'll be able to quickly amass the resources needed to enhance your experience in *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*. For more tips and information, be sure to check out The Escapist.
