Upgrading the Hideoutis one of the most important elements ofAssassin’s Creed Shadows.
Building and upgrading buildings is very useful and facilitates gameplay in various ways.
However, it requires certain materials: Crops, Wood and Minerals.
Low wealth locations will offer you little materials, as opposed to the wealthy ones.
So, look for materials in high wealth areas whenever possible.
Alternatively, you will find them in small boxes.
While using the Observe mechanic, the materials will be marked with a gold dot.
Unfortunately, you have tocollect each such material manually.
Completing a contract should only take you a few minutes, and the reward is definitely worth it.
you’re able to find more information about contracts on the pageWhat are contracts?.
Stockpiles, smuggling and stores
It’s probablythe most common method.
To obtain a pallet, you mustassign two scouts to it.
They will become unavailable for the rest of the season, planning to smuggle the pallets.
You will not get these materials immediately -they will appear in your inventory automatically when the season changes.
If you don’t have any free scouts, you will have to buy them in the kakurega.
Improving the Hideout will make smuggling easier and more profitable.
Pallets are most often found in warehouses, which you enter through large, iron doors.
Every key is universal and opens all warehouses in a specific location.
They only appear inport cities, located by the water.
The first such city in the game isSakai, in the Izumi Settsu region.
