Let's continue our journey searching for the best weapons in Assassin's Creed Valhalla. It's the turn of the Yngling Seax, a dagger-type weapon which can be found early in the game. The Yngling Seax dagger is the perfect fit for those who want to play a more aggressive playstyle because it provides quick and swift attacks.
One of the best qualities of the Yngling Seax dagger is precisely its effectiveness. Using this dagger, you can launch a fast attack and, due to its short-range, the Yngling Seax is the perfect weapon to defeat multiple enemies at once. This weapon is associated with the Raven Skill Tree.
The Yngling Seax dagger can be wielded in both hands but in order to wield a two-handed weapon in each hand, you will need the Heavy Dual Wild skill. If you have acquired the Heavy Dual Wild skill, you can combine the Yngling Seax with other weapons like the Suttungr's Claw or Kopis Dagger.
Where is located the Yngling Seax?
You can find this one-handed dagger exploring Eikundarsund
The way to acquire this dagger is quite easy. You just have to head to the island of Rygjafylke, in Norway. In this region, there is a restricted area called Eikundarsund. This can be easily found early on the game because the story starts in this area.
After you have reached Marauder's Den, you have to head to the southwest and you will come across a large, and church-shaped building (or a pagan-shaped building, that's up to you). Inside this building, you will find a chest with the Yngling Seax inside. But, not so fast! Because you have to fight and eliminate a man called Woe-Bringer and his guards before reaching the chest.
After dealing with them, you will find the wealth chest in the centre of the building's main room. So the good thing is that the chest is not hidden and you don't need to solve any puzzle to get the dagger. You just have to deal with these enemies, and that's that. Easy, right?
Yngling Seax stats
Its best attribute is the fantastic speed rate.
This dagger has the ability to increase melee damage (+15.0) after an elusive move, which is the main form of defense when you are using the Yngling Seax. Due to this ability, you can pair this dagger with the Brush with death skill to make it more effective. If you equip the dagger in your off-hand (usually left hand), you will be able to jump in battle and avoid enemies' attacks without wasting stamina.
One of the perks of the Yngling Seax is that you will watch how you slowly take more and more health, and that is why many players have decided to upgrade first this weapon to its highest rates. One way to upgrade this dagger is by using runes to reduce the weapon's weight. This will lead to more dodges and, therefore, will increase melee damage.
But, here it is what you need to know about the Yngling Seax attributes and statistics:
- Attack: 30.
- Speed: 80.
- Stun: 41.
- Crit-Pre: 64.
- Weight: 9.
