How to Farm at Low Levels in Odyssey 

Damn it, now I'm wishing I read the comments before grinding for Loadouts 2 & 3

Me too bruder

Because this is nonsense. At around lvl 11 you can easily make a build that will one-shot everything, and you can still use your abilities. And you don't need to spend lots of time farming.

did it work?

@@notdeku9197 yes, didn't take long to farm the gold and got it after about 10 refreshes of the blacksmith. I was lvl 7 and it only cost about 8000 after I farmed about 25000 so also had alot of gold left over.

@@PandaPowerable thanks for the fast reply dude, ill definitely have to check it out then

@@notdeku9197 after I went to the website, turned it on, I couldn't get it to show up in game. What am I doing wrong?

@@sloanIrrigation that happened to me, u just gotta giv it sometime to update

Im still trying to find that sword

@@somebawldy3789 Did you find it?

How can I get to the area it’s blocked off for me I’m trying to keep progressing now to see if that’s why

Glad to hear it's working for you! At level 40 I would expect even better money/time using one of the stories in Aipeia, Messenia. There are more weapon racks (17!) and at level 40 with the higher chance of rares and epics the larger number of items looted per time spent wins out over the higher base level items.

Neill Smith i could try that out as well. Grinding for 1-2 hours isn’t much compared to how few I yield in Athens. I play the game in console, Ps4 slim, so others should take into consideration that my loading time isn’t the greatest. To those who have better loading time- they could probably yield more than 150k-250k per half hour.

I really like this story for level 40+: assassinscreed.ubisoft.com/story-creator-mode/en-us/quest/5ea8e257b01ede49e8f6bafa There's 4 racks on the docks, 4 at the forge, 4 in a warehouse just north of the message board, 2 in the Production Line, and 3 near the leader house. 17 racks total, takes maybe 2 minutes if you just run through and ignore all the enemies.

Glad it helped

That's a popular one for sure and it was one of the better options before user stories. Still works as well as it always did but now that we can reset any area and run it over and over with a user story in the right place density and the level of the location matter more so Patrai is better under 30, because the level is so high, and over 30 Aipeia is better, because the density is so high.

You on pc or console?

@@RG-Racing on PS5!

@@rustyshackleford5409 I can’t seem to get the sword, I’ve reloaded the blacksmiths loads and can’t get it

@@RG-Racing I was just running back and forth from the blacksmith in this area and eventually it spawned on one of the vendors. Just keep doing the run and making money until you get the vendor to have the sword. Good luck mate

No the bighorn bow will never appear at a blacksmith. It will only appear in game at the oikos of olympos or in 'gifts' you can buy there. The Helix store for real money is another option, you get some Helix credits for free during your first playthrough so that's another way to get it.

If you have the stories turned on in game options you should be able to use the Ubisoft site to add them to your story log and then, once you are back in game, open your story log and highlight it from the list and it will show up.

@@NeillSmith is it the same for Xbox?

Not really no, it is 100% supported and implemented by Ubisoft. The only negative IMO is the blue portals popping up sometimes are pretty ugly and pull you out of the experience but that's easy to fix by disabling them in the game menu when you are not using them.

You're welcome 😊

You need to progress the main story until you get the big boat. Until them you're limited to just the small island you start on.

Just the base game. You can do them as soon as you finish with the tutorial island area which usually takes a couple hours I would say depending on how directly you do objectives.

I played over the free weekend and it unlocked automatically for me in the ubisoft club rewards. Now whenever I make a new game it is automatically added to my inventory and there's no way to get rid of it in game.

Sometimes you have to restart the game to get the My Stories list to update. If that doesn't work maybe double check that you're logging into Ubisoft's website with the same account you're using to connect in game.

@@NeillSmith Thank you for the reply Neill. I have started/restarted several times. I've added and removed your story a couple of times. I checked the web site section that shows what stories are picked and in my game account (I've only picked 7 at the moment) - you story shows as one of the 7 I picked!!) Yet, the others show up on my map but no matter all the above, your story does not show up in that city. It's crazy! I found a story that's nearby and have at least used your information - going to that city and running that wall's weapon racks - as you've outlined. So thanks for that! But gee whiz... just can't get YOUR story to appear. I'm right to assume the blue exclamation diamond should appear on my map in that city, yes? I don't understand... Oh well, apparently the Greek gods don't like me!

@@NeillSmith Thank you for the possible help. To date, I have not been able to get your story to come up on my map. Maybe I just don't understand the whole thing? (I'm slow...). Stories just appear on my map one day, then gone the next day. Are they supposed to be "here and gone"? How do I make ANY story of my choosing or random (let alone your story) STAY on the map from one day to the next? Obviously Story Mode is on since I can access the random ones that appear, but is there a setting that I don't see that lets me see the stories I pick (such as yours) and then have them STAY? Or do you have to pick them every time you start the game? Sorry to bother you but I THANK YOU for any illumination you (or anyone) can provide!

Epic weapons tend to show up more past a certain level, around 25-30. Earlier than that and epics are pretty hard to farm at blacksmiths especially in the quantities necessary to get a good roll. The blade of yumminess I think is on a different table altogether, seemed to take the same amount of time at level 7-8 as it did at level 99 maybe 10-20 minutes of reloading on PC give or take? If you are trying to the blade at low levels do not be discouraged by the lack of epics. If you are trying for epics at a low level be prepared to roll a ton more than you would at later levels and maybe focus on leveling a bit more first.

10-15 times maybe? You can approximate how many common weapons you need by checking the blacksmith before you start for a common or blue sword at your level. For a common sword multiply by 62 for a blue/rare sword multiply by 25. Each common weapon is worth maybe 220-250 when you're below level 40 so divide out for the number you have to gather.

Quicksave on PC is F5 I think and quickload is, I think, F9?

I think so? I thought it was free for everyone now.

Try visiting blacksmiths in other areas then until you find one that's giving you different items each time.

As far as I know, the user created stories are cross platform. I don't even think there's a concept of a user story that's specific to a platform they're all created through the website.

@@NeillSmith thanks!

@@NerZhulSSJ2 did you get it to work?

@@RG-Racing I used Patrai wall run, albeit just couple of times. You really do not need to grind in this game. Just level up first by doing quests, contracts, bounties you will swim in xp and resources in no time

The link in the description still works for me: assassinscreed.ubisoft.com/story-creator-mode/en-us/quest/5ea4f2622e1cde2e80a4fc22

Yea i am having same issue

@@NeillSmith Thanks. Your link worked perfectly and I have successfully used the story to amass drachmae and resources. No luck with blacksmiths finding the blade, despite a lot of reloading and moving to different blacksmiths. Bad luck I get.

Are you still on kephalonia? The option won't show up until you leave and the title card rolls by.

@@NeillSmith I'm actually already done the part where I go to cult of kosmos and I'm still not sure..

When you say you don't have the button in the menu which menu do you mean? For the button to show up in the quest log for user created stories you have to first toggle the option on in the gameplay options menu. If that is not there then you must not be on the latest version of the game and need to update.

They were a reward for logging in during an anniversary event weekend. Right now the club rewards have been broken by the conversion from uplay to ubisoft connect so until that's fixed there's no way to get them. Hopefully when that is fixed they will become available to everyone.

So this spot is great at low levels because the base level of the area is pretty high. 36 is around the level you want to switch to spots with better weapon rack density, like Aipeia Inspection in Messenia will give 17 weapon racks in less than 2 minutes using this story: assassinscreed.ubisoft.com/story-creator-mode/en-us/quest/5ea8e257b01ede49e8f6bafa

I'm pretty sure it's available on xbox :)

You can farm weapon racks on Kephallonia and get the Blade of Yuminess to spawn at the blacksmith there but it takes a lot longer. The lowest level I've managed it on Kephallonia was 7. If you do it before unlocking the ship you will not have access to user stories so you have to wait for weapon racks to respawn on their own. After unlocking the ship and getting access to user stories you could do it with one on Kephallonia but it is still faster to travel to patrai because the item level there is much higher so you get more money per weapon.

Yes the weapon buying part works on xbox. Just make sure to save before speaking to the blacksmith for the firs t time manually and then come back to that same manual save each time. If you cannot get a fresh inventory each time try a different blacksmith or leveling up once, then saving, and then talking to the blacksmith.

It was a limited time promotion for an anniversary event. Right now club rewards are offline, seems like the transition to Ubisoft Connect broke them. The ezio armor might be available to everyone after they come back? We'll have to wait and see.

Blacksmiths only change stock the first time you visit and then it becomes permanent until you leave the area for awhile or level up. So if the blacksmith isn't changing stock just switch to another blacksmith and eventually you'll find one that is changing stock.

So you have to add to log on the site, then in game you have to have the user stories option enabled in your gameplay settings, and then it will show up in the story log which is a sub menu of the quest log you access with the button on the bottom right.

Try a different blacksmith, one you haven't been near in awhile. If you talk to them and save after or spend to much time near the blacksmith the inventory will become fixed until after your next level up.

When you have advanced the story enough to gather enough upgrade pieces to unlock level 3 abilities or level 31 because that's a good level to start using the full pirate set whichever comes first.

How much did it cost you at level 18?

I exited the game when I did it and when I went back in it appeared ik I’m late but I thought I’d just let you know just in case.

Ikr

You have to save before you talk to them the first time. If it's not changing switch to another blacksmith. If you can't get any blacksmith to work level up once and try again being careful not to talk to them until after you save near them.

@@NeillSmith oh I didn't know that. Thanks for the info man

If you open your game menu and go to store there's a tab in the store for 'owned' items. If you check there it will show a list of all the items you own on the store. If you scroll around the list to an item you do not currently have unlocked on your current character it will show the button to press to 'get' the item.

Yes, it can be done on Ps4, Ps5, Xbox and PC. I'm pretty sure you can do it on anything.

Yes, you keep everything you looted even if you end the story early.

Yes it's still available.

It's in Messinia. Make sure you have user stories enabled in gameplay options. You should see a button in your quest log bottom right to open your story log.

@@NeillSmith I do. Been using your Patrai wall run last couple of days now.

@@NeillSmith well been all over and still can't find it. I checked the website. It says I have it added. You know the name of the quest and exact location? Trying to upgrade my gear to level 40 but its costing a fortune and this wall run only yields 8 items. Doing more busy work than questing. Lmao. Ugh

Maybe try this one then: assassinscreed.ubisoft.com/story-creator-mode/en-us/quest/5ea8e257b01ede49e8f6bafa It's in Messenia use the Aipeia Port and from the fast travel point it should be one pier west of where it puts you right next to a group of 4 weapon racks. That run has 17 racks total if you hit them all.

@@NeillSmith okay tyvm. I appreciate you responding. This is my first assassins creed game and I'm hooked. Just seems like the upgrade materials and drachmae is soo steep for only a few levels at a time

My general plan on a new game is to go for the Blade of Yuminess ASAP, get all the CRIT Chance and Damage while full health riddles knocked out, and then work towards getting the Pirate set finished by level 31. Keeping an eye out for well rolled epics the entire way and transitioning to epics at 41 or 51 depending on the quality of the epics you find.

@@NeillSmith thanks man you're a legend I was completely lost.

Yeah this still works if not with the listed stories then with another story in the same area. Really any user story can be used you can completely ignore the objectives, loot the weapon racks, and restart as many times as you need to get enough stuff to sell for the money you need.

@@NeillSmith on the same day I commented this, I tried this method and I got 30k drachme easily which is INSANE for my level. Also I got the blade of yummyness and when I pair it up with the glitched 50% damage bow, my damage is insane. I can easily 1 shot mercenaries by assassinating them. This video helped me sooo much and I'm really grateful
