With Assassin’s Creed having so many resources and more than one currency, it can be confusing at times. You may have come across opal, but what is opal and how do you spend it?
Where to Spend Opal?
You will need to progress through the story for a while before being able to spend your opal.
Once you’ve progressed a little, you will be notified that someone has turned up and set up shop in Ravensthorpe. Upon investigating, you will meet Reda, the head of the Thousand-Eyes network.
Once Reda has set up shop, you will be able to start buying items with Opal, which will include daily and weekly items, including:
- Hairstyles
- Tattoos
- Ship alterations
- Weapons
- Armor
- Companions (Mount & Raven)
- Shields
- Camp decorative items
Make sure not to rush your first purchase; Opal is a rare resource and can take some time to build up, so make sure you pick your purchase wisely.

Once Reda has set up camp, he will also explain that there are other Thousand-Eyes vendors scattered across the map that will also be happy to take your Opal off your hands.
You can see Thousand-Eyes members marked on the map, so they’re not hard to find once you know what the symbol looks like.
How to Get Opal in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla?
Right from the start of your journey, you might start noticing Opal on the odd occasion. It can be picked up as a random drop; however, it’s not very common that you will stumble across it.
You can also speak to Reda or one of the other Thousand-Eyes members to accept contracts, which mainly involve killing people.
Once you have confirmed the kill, you will be rewarded, often with Opal. You can accept a few of these timed quests per day, so make sure to do them so that you can earn as much Opal as possible.
At the moment, it would seem that contracts and being lucky enough to stumble across some are the only two ways to obtain Opal; of course, if we do find other ways, we will be sure to let you know.
