Eivor's Guide to Shiny Things: How to Drown Yourself in Opals (Without Actually Drowning)
Ah, Opal. The lifeblood of any self-respecting Viking who appreciates a bit of bling (and by bling, we definitely don't mean that questionable mutton chop situation going on with some NPCs). You want that fancy new armor set? Opal. Feeling a desperate need to redecorate your longhouse with some truly terrifying wolf pelts? Opal, my friend. But where does one, hypothetically, get their hands on this magical glowing…stuff?
Fear not, fellow raider! Here's your one-stop shop to becoming richer than a dragon hoarding a mountain of… well, you get the idea.
Method 1: Reda's Shady Shop of Definitely Legit Acquisitions (and Contracts)
QuickTip: Scroll back if you lose track.
This mysterious child, Reda, shows up at your settlement peddling wares that would make a magpie blush. The only catch? He wants Opal in exchange for his… ahem “treasures.” But hey, desperate times call for desperate Viking fashion choices, right? Here's the lowdown on Reda's racket:
- Daily Contracts: These little quests are quick and easy, rewarding you with a measly 5 Opal each. But hey, it adds up! Just be prepared to answer to some of Reda's more… eccentric requests. Like, who needs that many leech socks, anyway?
- Weekly Contracts: These are a bit tougher but offer a bigger payout of 20 Opal. Think of them as Reda's way of testing if you're worthy of his most questionable merchandise.
Method 2: Ubisoft Connect - The Not-So-Shady Place (with Free Stuff?)
Tip: Reading with intent makes content stick.
Believe it or not, Ubisoft Connect, that fancy overlay thingy, can actually hook you up with some free Opal. Keep an eye out for special events or challenges. They might just throw some your way for, you know, existing and being awesome.
Method 3: The Art of the Raid (Spoiler Alert: It Involves Raiding)
QuickTip: Read line by line if it’s complex.

Let's be honest, Vikings gotta raid. So why not make it a double whammy? Monasteries and wealthy settlements often have little stashes of Opal just waiting to be liberated… er, I mean, discovered by a curious Viking explorer like yourself. Just remember, discretion is key. You wouldn't want to upset the locals, would you?
Method 4: Become a Master of Time Management (Because Time = Opal)
QuickTip: Scan for summary-style sentences.
This one's a bit of a long game, but hear me out. Certain in-game events and festivals offer limited-time challenges with Opal rewards. The trick? Keep an eye on your quest log and prioritize those sweet, sweet Opal opportunities. Time is money, as they say, or in this case, shiny space rocks.
Bonus Tip: Embrace the Grind (Because Shiny Things Don't Come Easy)
Alright, alright, so this isn't exactly a shortcut, but hear me out. Exploring the world, completing quests, and generally being a badass Viking all contribute to that ever-growing Opal pile. Plus, you get the satisfaction of conquering England and looking fabulous while you do it. It's a win-win!
There you have it, warriors! With a little effort (and maybe a touch of questionable behavior), you'll be swimming in Opal faster than you can say "loot pi�ata." Now go forth, conquer, and accessorize responsibly!
