    AC Marathon 2020 - Day 59

    Fate of Atlantis - Episode 3: Judgement of Atlantis - Part 2: 'Sealing Our Fate'

    Greetings, Assassins! Today is our last playable day of Assassin's Creed Odyssey in the 2020 Marathon. We'll continue to help a few more people, as well as gain more knowledge and insight into using the staff. We'll also discover some very surprising secrets before sealing Atlantis again. And finally, back in the Modern Day, we'll see what happens with Layla as Abstergo closes in on her.

    Today's Targets: Raw adamant, Isu Foreman, Xarios the Abductor, Hekatonchires

    ODYSSEY NOTES

    Please note, it is strongly recommended to play on New Game Plus. It'll be easier to keep up with the fast pace of the Marathon not having to worry as much about resources, money & gear, and leveling up your character and ship.

    During the Marathon, we will be playing the family story, and the First Civ story. We will not be covering the elimination of all the Cultists, only the ones as defeated during the other two story lines.

    There are several continuous quests that you will need to complete in order to proceed with the story. You may have completed these already in Episode 3, Part 1. They are listed in today's quest list. The first one, 'A Complete Education' must be completed earlier, before the "Blood Gets In Your Eyes' quest. The second, 'Wisdom of the Ancients', is a progressive quest allowing you access to more areas the higher in Isu Knowledge you become. It's best to complete this one earlier as well. It must be completed before the 'Good From Far, Far From Good' quest.

    Support quests are required but you can usually do them in any order. They are listed as separate quests, but are in support of a main quest.

    Remember guys, fall damage will be back to normal with Valhalla, no more magical legs. Gone are the days of jumping off a mountain and taking no damage.

    Posted: 08 Nov 2020 01:48 PM PST

    Just thought I'd make a reminder for everyone, NO HIGH JUMPS in Valhalla, you'll most likely die, I havent played Valhalla but I would imagine the fall damage is going to be normal, so small jumps are fine but anything like building height will probably take half your health :(.

    EDIT: I HAVENT PLAYED THE GAME. No spoilers please if you reply.

    A neat addition to romancing in Valhalla

    Posted: 08 Nov 2020 02:02 PM PST

    I made this to celebrate the series so far and the launch of Valhalla. Enjoy!

    Posted: 08 Nov 2020 08:02 PM PST

    The character customization is something I am really looking forward to. What weapon and outfit combo are you going for in Valhalla?

    Posted: 08 Nov 2020 12:52 PM PST

    I think I am going to go for a stealthy dual wielding warrior. I'll be mostly draped in that dark cloak as I wonder the open world. Until I find Basim's outfit or something similar.

    What weapon and outfit combo are you planning on using?

    Thoughts on Character Choosing Process??

    Posted: 08 Nov 2020 05:19 PM PST

    I am beyond hyped for this game! I'm starting to see people with early access talking about it, and so far it seems to be all good things! I just saw that Ubisoft put out a video describing the character choosing process (and I know I'm probably late to the party here). But who is everyone leaning towards and why?

    I was originally going to go with Male, until I saw the 3rd option (to let the game switch between the two) is actually the Default option. So what's everyone leaning towards? I remember everyone thought Kassandra's voice was better then Alexios' for the most part, but haven't heard much about these two for Valhalla yet.

    I'm sure they will both be amazing, and I'm still probably going to choose Male, but was just wondering what everyone thought. About 28 more hours left to wait here on the east coast U.S.!!!!

    I loved Odyssey's ocean. I hope Valhalla has something similar.

    Working my way through all the AC titles, beat Brotherhood tonight.

    Posted: 08 Nov 2020 11:49 PM PST

    I'm not much of a gamer, but I love the Assassin's Creed series. I've played a lot of the games (Odyssey, Origins, Revelations, Black Flag) but never beat any of them until this year. I first started with AC 1, then AC 2, and I just finished AC: Brotherhood tonight. I had a goal for trying to beat them all before Valhalla came out, but as you can see that's not going to happen. That just goes to show how much of a gamer I am. Lol. I do really enjoy this series as I like the historical aspect of it and exploring various different times, countries, cities, etc.

    I already preordered Valhalla and plan on playing it on release day and probably for a few days after. Then I will go back and finish the games in order as the wiki on this page ordered them.

    With me not gaming everyday, I'm not sure how long it will take me to complete them all, but I will eventually!

    As for the new consoles, I don't plan on getting the new Xbox Series X (my platform of choice) probably for at least a year, I may also just wait until Ubisoft stops supporting the Xbox One console for the AC games.

    For those of you that have completed the games, I can't wait to join in your ranks, regardless of how long that may take me. Lol. And I hope to join you all in playing Valhalla on Tuesday!

    I did a little skit on AC ai.

    Posted: 08 Nov 2020 07:01 AM PST

    It just occurred to me, Connor is the only Kenway protagonist who didn’t kill his teacher.

    Posted: 08 Nov 2020 08:34 PM PST

    Well, Jennifer Killed Reginald Birch, but Haytham was the one who gave her the opportunity. They both intended for him to die, and it didn't really matter who did it.

    Edward Assassinated Ben Hornigold, on orders from Bartholomew Roberts, just before finally seeing the Observatory.

    Connor is the only one who didn't pull an Altair.

    Ranking the Assassins on the basis of their combat ability

    Posted: 08 Nov 2020 09:42 PM PST

    So seeing the recent game theory video where Matpat, basically says that Eivor is most probably the strongest assassin, inspired me to make this video. We probably cannot confirm nor deny that till most of us get our hands on the actual game but what we do know is the fighting skill of every Assassin prior.

    So for this list, I've ranked characters on the basis of their weapons, armour and skill in true Death Battle fashion. The assumption is that each character has the best possible gear available to them and are in peak physical conditions. But none of them has access to any Pieces of Eden, so Arno doesn't get the Sword of Eden, nobody gets an Apple and Misthios doesn't get their broken spear nor staff. So a basic distinction I've made is protagonists who were skilled enough to use the Hidden Blade in Combat automatically are considered to be higher skilled than the rest. I've also decided to not consider ranged weapons because that would give the protagonists with guns an unduly advantage

    1. Ezio: I can see the Connor stans fuming in the comments already but hear me out, in terms of weapons and armour, Ezio takes the cake, with not one, not two but three different sets of unbreakable armour as well as an unbreakable sword. And he has bags of skill, Ezio is taking down enemies at the ripe old age of 50 something with the same efficiency that he had in his twenties. He can immediately identify a weak spot and insta-kill any enemy that swings at him when fighting with just his hidden blade. And speaking of hidden blades, Ezio would also duel wield hidden blades in combat, not only are hidden blades weapons that require good amounts of skill to use but dual-wielding is also something that requires good amounts of skill. Also, Ezio's Eagle Sense, allows him limited precognition, which raises his next-level awareness to an insanely high level.
    2. Connor: It was hard to pick between Altair and Connor, but in the end, I decided on placing Connor higher on the list. Connor is a prodigy, he was cutting through adults like butter at the age of 16, he held his own against firing lines and musketeers with just his tomahawk. Once he got into his groove, entire armies could be chopped up in a killstreak and his animations were both brutal and full of finesse. Simply put, Connor was unstoppable, 'nuff said. Also Connor despite his bulky 6'4 frame was supremely agile, gliding through trees like a nimble ninja warrior.
    3. Altair: Altair might put Connor to shame with his prodigal-ness, he became Master Assassin by the age of twenty which is mighty quick, he might just be the youngest Assassin to ever be awarded the title of Master. Trained from his youth to be a ruthless killing machine, Altair was quite literally untouchable. In the first game, you didn't have a health bar, every time you took a hit, you lost synchronization, so if you wanted to play the game exactly how Altair lived, you couldn't take a single hit. In the end, I knocked him below Ezio and Connor only because he couldn't engage in killstreaks like the other two, but again, Altair was a fucking shadow, he took out enemies with precision and skill, he didn't need flashy techniques to take out whole armies because he never put himself in situations like that.
    4. Edward: Edward Kenway, had no formal training at all, just an average guy who got piss drunk often leading to his wife leaving him. But despite having no training at all, Edward is a beast, learning how to use hidden blades intuitively, and being adept at dual-wielding them as well as dual-wielding swords. The thing about dual-wielding is that the sensible and strategic thing to do would be to pair one offensive weapon with a defensive one, but Edward managed to use two swords or two hidden blades and face absolutely no disadvantage, which would take superhuman amounts of skill. If he had grown up in an environment similar to Altair, and received even half as much training as he had, he could've been the greatest assassin of all time. He was this scary without any training, if he had gotten trained his ceiling is simply unimaginable, he would've made Connor look like a pushover. So my reasoning for how low he is simply his lack of formal training and the way he died, killed by a few meagre mercenaries(Darby I know you're on this sub, if you are reading this, retcon his death, please)
    5. Shay: Well, Shay's move set is identical to Edward, nothing significant to distinguish the two of them tbh. Shay very much feels like Edward with a coat of paint, which certainly isn't a bad thing, he too is a skilled combatant who can hold his own against small armies. The only reason I've placed him lower is that he reached Edward's level after receiving formal training whereas Edward was just that good out the box
    6. Bayek of Siwa: The Medjay of Siwa is a fucking badass, he was capable of holding his own against 5 different war elephants, survived hallucinations of gods that would kill others and can simply walk off being lit on fire. It feels unfair to knock Bayek so low, but logically this seems like a fair position for him. The quality of craftsmanship of weapons and armour during Ptolemaic Egypt simply doesn't hold its own against weapons from the American Revolution. Sure this is a disadvantage Altair and Ezio also face but Altair learnt how to craft unbreakable weapons and armour thanks to the Apple meaning that this is a non-factor when comparing them to the others above him(Ezio has access to the Sword and Armour of Altair). Also, a look at the overpower animations for Bayek reflects a lack of skill. The overpower for the sword and heavy show Bayek winding up to perform hits that should be lethal in every possible context but Enemies simply walk off a sword through the chest. Logically this makes no sense but the fact that Bayek is able to skewer his enemies but not kill them knocks him on the list for me. Him not being able to use the hidden blade in combat is also quite a disadvantage, all the protagonist above him would be able to instakill him with their hidden blades when he would wind up for an Overpower or something.
    7. Misthios: This one is a stab in the dark, I'm not entirely sure how exactly the lack of a piece of Eden and PoE induced abilities would hamper the Misthios's combat ability, but following the logic I used for Bayek, the older the weapon, the worse the quality of craftsmanship, meaning they had access to objectively worse equipment than everyone above them simply by virtue of living in Ancient Greece. But the Misthios is an extremely skilled fighter and a badass spartan warrior who has fought literal gods and monsters, so I could be completely wrong here.
    8. Jacob: Jacob and Evie are fast, they land hits in the blink of an eye, and are quick enough to dodge bullets. They do face a disadvantage here because they cannot fight with their hidden blades and instead use Kukris, Cane Swords and Brass Knuckles which are admittedly inferior to the arsenal of all the protagonists that came above them, and the arbitrary exclusion of guns I've put in this analysis takes away their major advantage. However, you would think that Victorian London outlawing the carrying of weapons would provide the perfect opportunity for the return of hidden blade combat, that Ubisoft simply refused to take. I've placed Jacob above Evie in this list because Ubisoft intended for him to be the brawler
    9. Evie: Evie is only below Jacob because Jacob's skill tree allows for him to dish out more damage, but don't let that fool you, Evie is plenty capable of holding her own against large groups. Equally skilled as her brother with wits that more than make up for the relative lack of strength, Evie and Jacob are by all means on par with one another, and I've only made a distinction in this list because Ubisoft chose to make one.
    10. Arno: Now it seems unfair to Arno to place him so low, but remember, the protagonists are largely superhuman, so being the most human of them all is nothing inherently bad. Arno seems to lack upper body strength, he cannot consistently catch ledges, he swings light foils with the same speed as Edward swings a heavy weapon. He cannot fight with his hidden blades, he cannot disarm his opponents and he cannot engage in combat with his bare fists. What Arno lacks in upper body strength he makes up for with his legs, man can jump like a fucking Kangaroo on steroids, his jumps are superhuman. Maybe if he learnt kickboxing and got himself some of those fancy foot blades Shao Jun used, he would be higher on this list.

    Edit: For further clarification, the fighting styles in the past are more primitive and less technical than the fighting styles of protagonists from more recent eras so that is another obvious disadvantage that I've considered, and all the first five protagonists(bar Altair) hold an advantage even when fighting bare-fisted thanks to their ability to consistently disarm their opponents and instakill counter with their hidden blades

    Question for people who played about “Let the animus decide”

    Posted: 08 Nov 2020 01:41 PM PST

    Is this the best way to play and get the full story? Or can I play as 1 gender and still get the full story( and that it makes sense) because constant changes in gender is honestly something that will destroy my immersion. A simple yes or no will suffice, PLEASE NO SPOILERS just a : yes you will get the full story that makes sense with just 1 gender or no

    a future main game about Fiora Cavazza.

    Posted: 08 Nov 2020 05:56 PM PST

    would anyone else not mind a future main game about the Templar-turned-Assassin Fiora Cavazza? like maybe set in the 1510s, and also, Fiora is unique among the AC Brotherhood Multiplayer characters, as she's the only one (as far as I remember) that does not appear in AC Brotherhood and is also not killed by Ezio in AC Brotherhood, so yeah, would be interesting honestly.

    What do the difficulty settings actually change?

    Posted: 08 Nov 2020 01:54 PM PST

    I've noticed the three types of difficulty settings in streamer videos but there's no breakdown of what any of them change. Does combat difficulty just scale enemy health and damage like odyssey or is it something more complex?

    I am sick to death of people saying Ghost of Tsushima is a better AC than valhalla, here's why, and if you agree please let me know why or if you don't do the same and we can have a nice and covil discussions on both our thoughts

    Posted: 08 Nov 2020 11:25 PM PST

    I am so annoyed of people saying this, they only say it too because it has stealth and that's it, they ignore the fact that this game has stealth and judging by the mechanics valhallas is probably better, keep in mind as of right now ghost is my game of the year but the stealth mechanics were not very deep at all

    They go off about origins not being an assassins creed but say this does it better when the stealth systems for both minus the fear systems is the exact same and I'm sick to death of it just because they think ubisoft is the devil which they aren't, sure they made some bad games but a hefty majority are pretty to very good.

    The assassin creed story up to Valhalla

    How to enjoy Assassin's Creed: Black Flag to it's fullest potential?

    Posted: 08 Nov 2020 02:51 PM PST

    So recently, there was an Assassin's Creed Bundle for the Nintendo Switch, which it included Black Flag, and Rogue, it was a great deal ($15.99) so I bought it because I've heard great stuff about Black Flag.

    To be honest, I've never been so much for Open World games, and it is my first Assassin's Creed game, but I wanted to give it a try, so I booted it up, and kinda played it, I liked the style, the movements were kinda hard to get used to, but it worked, but I don't know if it's just not my style, or I don't know how to play it the way to make it fun.

    I'll take any tips you guys have! I want to join the "(G)old games community" and make the most of playing this game. Thanks!

    Can you still play dead or fake your death in Valhalla?
