Another area of Assassin's Creed Valhalla, another set of Artifacts to uncover! Hordafylke, the second area of the game, is smaller than Rygiafylke and only boasts two artifacts, both tattoo patterns. For those who haven't read our previous guides, you should be aware that tattoo patterns in-game are floating pieces of paper, followed by a trail of leaves, and yes, they will lead you on a bit of a chase throughout the area before you can finally collect them. So, if you're as baffled as I was the first time the map marker disappeared when I was standing under one of them, that's why! The marker is also connected to the item, not the starting location.
For all you out there who think you can just shortcut to the end of these trails, forget it. While it's a bit of an obstacle course to follow and keep up with the tattoos, it's also the quickest and most direct way to reach your destination.
Assassin's Creed Valhalla Hordafylke Artifact 1
Located in Alrekstad, just over the border in Gorm's encampment, you'll have to climb a short tree to get to this starting location and then start running. Your prize at the end? The Midgard Scheme (Front) tattoo, which is quite fetching.
Assassin's Creed Valhalla Hordafylke Artifact 2
Located just a short way outside of Alrekstad, it's easy enough to snag this artifact on your way over from Kjotve's fortress if you go by land. And this time you get the Norse Emblem Scheme (Front) tattoo to reward all your efforts. Like the first artifact, your starting point is once again up a tree.
