*Assassin’s Creed Shadows* returns to the beloved open-world RPG format, where keeping your character and Hideout upgrades up to date is crucial for tackling the game's more demanding challenges. Here's a comprehensive 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 for acquiring resources for your Hideout:
- By completing quests
- By completing Contracts
- By looting chests
Quest completion and chest looting are straightforward. Many side quests will generously reward you with resources, while exploring restricted areas can yield valuable loot. When entering such areas, use the L2 or LT button to survey your surroundings and identify golden and white orbs, which signify chests and other lootable caches.
Occasionally, you’ll discover large resource caches that you can mark for your scouts to pilfer later.
For those looking to farm resources efficiently, focusing on Contracts is key.
Completing Contracts
As you develop your base, you'll need to construct a Kakurega building within your Hideout. This structure not only increases your access to scouts but also unlocks optional quests known as Contracts. These are specifically designed to help you farm essential resources like wood, minerals, crops, and even rare materials such as metal and silk, which are vital for upgrading your weapons and armor.
To engage with Contracts, navigate to the Kakurega building in your Hideout and interact with the small table inside to browse available Contracts. Accept the ones you wish to undertake, and locate them on your map, marked by a distinctive katana icon. Completing these quests will grant you a substantial amount of resources, making them an indispensable part of upgrading your Hideout significantly.
