With these skills, fans can be as mighty as a bear in Assassin's Creed Valhalla.

Taking on the role of Eivor Varinsdottir, players can venture into ancient England, experiencing Eivor as either a male or female version of the Viking raider. Through Eivor's journey, fans witness how the wolf provides an influential approach to combat throughout the game. For a game series reliant on stealth and cinematic combat, the wolf skill tree in Assassin's Creed Valhalla contributes some epic and efficient abilities in the ways of the wolf.

6 Hunter Bow Combo

Having potent weaponry in the Assassin's Creed universe demands having mastery of whatever power tool players claim or utilize the best. Using bows determines speed and headshot damage as critical points for the Valhalla installment. Yet with the bow combo, the trick lies in momentously building traction as the bow speed increases and the number of bows is multiplied with each shot.

Players should try practicing this skill and pay close attention to the four blinkers surrounding their target. It's important to watch as they quicken in appearance when tracking and aiming the shot. This ability makes for a badass finish move that can layer up with multiple arrows simultaneously, building after each practice shot or target shot. The Hunter Bow Combo stylizes aggression in a sly manner of attack.

5 Charged Shot

This unstoppable attack with two fully charged arrows, used with the Hunter Bow, reigns as a treasure move. The charged shot maximizes a player's kill count and adds to playstyle when not accompanied by fellow raiders or a wolf companion. When in action, the active skill can appear too overpowering, but the damage done is extreme and worthy if done correctly!

This move encourages players to select a risky move more carefully when it comes to moving enemy targets. If this move is tested in practice, it's recommended to take note of the damage done, so one knows what to expect in heated enemy takedowns or fast-paced battle scenarios.

4 Emergency Aim

It's almost like the spidey senses are tingling with this one! Emergency Aim works to keep a player undetected as much as possible. But the power move lies in killing the enemy once detected before they can kill the player.

For a game determined and ruled by stealth tactics, remaining undetected with emergency aim is a quick back pocket skill for any wolf player trying to gain easy advantages on enemies.

3 Grit

Nothing screams quick success like grit does in Assassin's Creed Valhalla. Players can land a retaliation hit when their enemies are distracted or take time to re-up. Players layer up their protection with this strike and rebuild Eivor's health using quick melee hits. In true wolf fashion, utilizing this brief window when enemies are down for the count tremendously aids in a fast-calculated strike that doesn't require too much work on one's controller, as long as the hits land effectively.

This skill comes in clutch for battles with regular run-of-the-mill enemies! Fans can fulfill their inner wolf's satiation in tandem with attributes like terror. It also gives way to Eivor living in true Viking spirit. Additionally, this skill rings to cogent potential similar to the notable Bow Stun Finisher in both quality and filmic effect.

1 Man's Best Friend Ability

Valhalla gives a beautiful tribute to the loyalty of the way of the wolf by allowing players to gain an actual wolf companion! Now, this ability flies under the radar as it is part of a hidden quest that many players can breeze by as they make it to the level three settlement. Even though there are a handful of wolf attacks throughout the game, the journey Eivor has to conquer when seeking out the hidden wolf differs, as to gain this furry companion, players must rely on gusto and fealty.

The wolf pet quest enables an empowering companionship and physical aid for players on their journey in simple quests and full-out brawls. Earning 1,000 points is a huge plus, but the new wolf friend is handy for surprise attacks, perspective takes to scope land and enemy grounds, and overall support. Plus, who wouldn't love a creature that would rip someone to shreds in a heartbeat to save them?
