Need Leather? Odyssey's Got You Covered (Unless You're Wearing It)
Hey there, Misthios! Feeling a bit... unarmored? Perhaps your latest conquest left your gear looking like it went a few rounds with Medusa herself? Worry not! Because in the glorious world of Assassin's Creed Odyssey, leather is about as common as broken promises from politicians (easy to find, but wears thin quick).
Tip: Reading carefully reduces re-reading.
Tip: Keep the flow, don’t jump randomly.
QuickTip: Keep a notepad handy.
QuickTip: A short pause boosts comprehension.
So, how do you snag some hides and become a crafting champion?
There are a few heroic (and slightly less heroic) methods at your disposal:
-
Become a One-Person Safari: Greece may not be teeming with lions and tigers and bears (oh my!), but it certainly has its fair share of fauna. Boars, bears, and wolves are all leather-donating machines. Just equip your trusty spear and get ready to channel your inner caveman (or cavewoman!). Pro tip: Use Ikaros, your loyal eagle buddy, to scout these beasties beforehand. He'll tell you what goodies they'll drop, saving you the trouble of whacking a deer for disappointment (though, the deer might disagree).
-
The Dismantling Game: Let's face it, Misthios, you loot like a champion. Those overflowing pockets are bound to be crammed with old armor and weapons. But hey, one warrior's trash is another's... crafting material! Head to your inventory and dismantle unwanted gear. Not only will you get a nice chunk of cash, but you'll also score precious leather scraps. Remember, recycling is good for the environment... and your next epic armor upgrade!
-
The Merchant Shuffle: Feeling fancy? Or maybe just avoidant of wildlife? Fret not, for there are always merchants willing to separate you from your hard-earned drachmae in exchange for leather. Just be prepared for the tourist-trap markup. These guys aren't exactly known for their bargain-basement deals.
-
The Art of the Steal: Alright, alright, so this one's a bit less... lawful good. But hey, beggars can't be choosers, right? Raiding military camps and forts often yields a decent amount of leather (along with a side helping of angry soldiers, so maybe come prepared for a fight). Just remember, with great loot comes great responsibility... to not get pummeled by a battalion of Spartan elites.
-
The Questionable Ethics Approach (Not Recommended): Let's just say this method involves befriending a few sheep and then... well, let's use our imaginations. But hey, who are we to judge? Desperate times call for desperate measures (and slightly sheepish goodbyes).
There you have it, warriors! With a little effort (or a lot of questionable sheep interactions), you'll have enough leather to craft some truly legendary armor. So get out there, explore the beautiful Grecian world (and maybe whack a few boars along the way), and become the most impeccably dressed hero the Aegean Sea has ever seen!
