So You Want to Dress Like a Thunder God? A (Mostly) Serious Guide to Getting Thor's Armor in Assassin's Creed Valhalla
Ah, Thor's armor. The stuff of legends, the envy of mortals, and guaranteed to make you look like a total badass while raiding Saxon settlements. But before you channel your inner lightning lord, there's a bit of a hurdle to jump. Here's the lowdown on snagging Thor's legendary threads, with a healthy dose of humor because, let's face it, who doesn't love a good chuckle during a Viking rampage?
Step 1: Befriend (or Brutally Defeat) Some Angry Ladies
First up, you'll need to tangle with the delightful Daughters of Lerion. These charming gals are scattered across England, and none of them are exactly known for their afternoon tea parties. They're basically evil thunder groupies who hoard pieces of Thor's armor. Prepare for epic boss battles filled with magical attacks and enough screaming to wake Odin himself.

Top Tip: These ladies come in flavors of easy, medium, and "oh gods, RUN AWAY!" Goneril is a good place to start, while Cordelia will have you questioning your life choices.
Step 2: The Helmet Caper - It's More Complicated Than You Think
Tip: Use this post as a starting point for exploration.![]()
Once you've mopped the floor with the Daughters and snagged their sparkly daggers (trophies? debatable), you might think the helmet is a cinch. Wrong! You'll need some good old-fashioned spelunking in a creepy crypt hidden in East Anglia. Just follow the spooky vibes and avoid any suspicious whispers about ancient curses.
Step 3: The Order Must Die... Seriously, All of Them
Tip: Avoid distractions — stay in the post.![]()
Here's where things get interesting. The final piece of the puzzle, Thor's Cape, requires you to do a little housekeeping. By "housekeeping," we mean eliminating every single member of the Order of the Ancients, a sneaky cult that's been causing all sorts of trouble. There's 45 of them! Think whack-a-cult, Viking style.
Bonus Round: Worthy Enough to Wield Mjolnir?
QuickTip: Reading twice makes retention stronger.![]()
Alright, so you've got the full Thor getup. Looking mighty! But what about the real prize, Mjolnir, Thor's legendary hammer? Well, that my friend, requires completing the main story AND proving your worthiness.
We're talking epic trials, facing your inner demons, and maybe even a chat with a mystical squirrel. No pressure.
So there you have it! A not-so-simple guide to becoming a walking lightning rod. Remember, patience, perseverance, and maybe a touch of divine intervention will get you there. Now get out there and strike fear (and maybe a little envy) into the hearts of your enemies!
