Follow our walkthrough for Assassin's Creed Valhalla's 'Taking Root' quest in Asgard. Learn how to find the highest height, warm the seed, and bring it to water to complete the mission.
Alright, so you've got a note from Ivaldi called "Potential at Its Peak" for the 'Taking Root' quest in Asgard. It's a bit poetic, talking about a seed in Ymir's grip needing warmth and water. Basically, we need to find the highest point in Asgard, get a seed, and then plant it.
- 1First things first, check your inventory for that note, "Potential at Its Peak." It's tucked away in your quest items.
- 2Now, head to the southernmost part of the Asgard map. You're looking for the absolute highest mountain peak there.
- 3Climb all the way to the top. You'll find a synchronization point up there, so make sure to activate it.
- 4From the peak, look down. There's a haystack right below you. Jump into it!
- 5Once you land in the haystack, you'll see the seed right in front of you. But it's stuck! You need to free it by burning the haystack. Grab a torch and set it ablaze.
- 6With the haystack burned, grab the seed.
- 7Now, you need to throw the seed into the body of water that's directly below where you found it.
- 8Dive into that pond. As soon as you do, the seed will sprout roots.
- 9Your job now is to dive down and grab those roots. Do that, and you'll have completed the 'Taking Root' quest!
- Make sure you've synchronized at the peak before you jump into the haystack. It's a long way down, and you'll want to be able to fast travel back if needed.
- Don't forget to burn the haystack *before* trying to pick up the seed. It's a common mistake to try and grab it first.
