mind the length but hope it helps if theres better stuff do reply comes in handy i would recomend one getting eros bow and equip its perk on the achilles bow so you get a 50% chance to not consume the special arrow you shot and +20% damage with devastating shot making the achilles bow useful with poison, fire, explosive and death arrows achilles bow is from a merc whos name i cant remember and i think is between levels 15 and 20 on first discovery people (achilles bow is the devastating shot) eros bow is in messenia (bottom left of the map next to lakonia) in the mines furter inland from the port in the center tunnel under that cliff (the left tunnel at the back of that mine) (eros has the arrows engraving) abilities to have on hand for this arrow master 1 to 3 i think obtainable without getting the spear to level 1 out of 5 devastating shot possibly beast master at max so you can have a bear aswell maybe predator shot to guide your own arrow if you do feel brave and go in melee you can find nyx the shadow and get the kronus daggers from her and she is level 20 when discovering the cult, look at message board near pantheon in athens she will be the only citizen with a sword (and shes in black clothes) and get the +40% damage from attacking behind perk and possibly get the +20% with sparta kick on it if you dont have it AND DODGE TO GET THAT FEW SECOND SLOW MOTION TO GET A COUPLE STRIKES ON HIS BACK abilities sparta kick hero strike sparta kick second wind cause it will come in handy if he hits you and it isnt a 1 shot and maybe the bull rush just in case you have to launch him might need to get rid of worshippers of the bloodline cause of the buf you get from the full armor set from that branch literally ultimate second wind where when your health at 0 it restores it to max again and has a 1 minute cooldown thats useful for both just dont have anything that removes resistances or caps your health (you might have to go through the game to find one of the memberss

Podcast Banana yeah the higher rank the more xp, but the xp for more lvls you have the more you need, so if you kill a enemy was above you you either get a crap ton of xp or a new lvl, I killed a lvl 99 at lvl 81 and got like 1200 xp

I preferred luring the higher level mercs to a cliff, and kicking them off until they fall down and die. Or luring them up to a rooftop, and kicking them off until they fall down and die. Or luring them up to a very tall castle wall, kick them off, they die. Essentially luring them up to a very high place, kicking them, they fall, they die. It gets tricky when you kick a lot of them to their death, and then more come to attack you in a joint effort to kill you.

Well to be fair, he is the Top of the Top.....until you kill him and find out there are 5 more tiers of mercs above him. I like the Merc system but I really wish when they replaced mercs on the list that were eliminated either by you or from some other enemy out in the world that the mercs under you could be any level. I don't like the fact that all the mercs under your current tier position are either at your level or a few levels under you. It would be cool if a new merc in a tier below your position would be level 80 or 90 when you level 60, like some random killing machine just decided to be a merc and your in their way (would've been cool).
Ive finished the main story line and when this happens you get to start a whole new game (from level 1) but this time keep your abilities, weapons ship upgrades etc so I imagine this is what he’s done.
This is exactly how i completed the quest when your tasked with killing the Monger, i was very low leveled and was just camping on top of a tall roof top and firing thousands of arrows till i did enough damage so that i could go down and finish him with one hit, good times man👌🏻
Gonna start by saying I started playing AC2 then went back to 1 and played all the way to 3, so I played during the actual AC games. That being said Odyssey is way more fun. Sure you could aerial assassinate, but then you get into a boring ass fight. I remember just waiting to counter/parry get in a hit or two, then repeat. That was pretty much all the combat in the early games and it is boring as fuck. Sure Odyssey doesn't have the story the early games do, but it is still a good story. I don't get why people keep comparing these games to the old ones. Aside from the same name, they are completely different and that's a good thing. I bought this game around Thanksgiving and have almost got 70 hours in the game. I haven't had this much fun in a game in a while and I still have so much left to do.
@@trevor42699 Don't worry. I have never played this game before but it is good. I just want to get nostalgic feeling. If only Assassin Creed is kind like Hit Man, it'll be a lot of fun.
@@hakimssszzz9289 Nah I definitely agree I loved those early games and part of me wishes we could go back to it. On the other hand I have had so much fun in this game and this style of game opens it to a lot more people. My roommate just bought it and it's his first AC game and he's loving it. If I were you I'd definitely pick it up on sale. Definitely my GOTY.
@@trevor42699 Good for you 😀 for me I think its GOW. Still, I hope next AC would be lit like this one. Try imagine in Japan. Becoming badass ninja fighting corrupted shogun. How awesome is that?!
@@hakimssszzz9289 Oh yeah I don't think it should have actually won GOTY, but it was my personal favorite from the year. Unfortunately I don't have a PS4 so I didn't get to play GOW which is pretty disappointing. I have been wanting a Feudal Japan for so long. I think the mercenary system in this would go well with Japan, becoming like the best swordfighter in Japan.

I did it a different way, assassin damage from what I’ve seen does more damage so I used that to my advantage. Level 59 (me) to I think 86 (cult merc). This was on a new game+ so the levels are higher. A lot of dodging, hero strikes and a critical assassination and I eventually killed him. Managed to get to him while he was separated from his bear, just long enough for the whole fight.
@@JimMastorakis1808 You can only do a single assassination anyway (the system doesn't allow anymore) but not sure if that perk also means all skills from the assassin tree like (Hero Strike).
This video inspired me, I made a hunter build and went after him, only took 7 "devastating shot" headshots to finish him off. I'm level 34 though, not 24. Thanks for the inspiration!
I love these kinds of videos, the ones from small channels with a weird event from a new game at the time that for no reason got recommended to millions of people still getting attention years later
@@klemenrus3996 The slow mercs are the easiest ones by far. Just parry and counter attack, and use your adrenaline abilities. I can't stand the mercs with daggers, they're a pain to try parry. For them i just stay at a distance and jab away with my spear.
I remember watching this video when i first started playing Odyssey and thinking it was so crazy. Then I realized that you can take down any level of enemy at any level with the right build relatively easy.
@@tommy9303 oh, DPS builds OP. I have both a Poison build (for daytime battles and all our brawls where I just wanna weaken everyone while I track captains) and a fire build (normally used at night, like 200% extra fire damage lol). They're very helpful, especially against bosses that are resistant to one or the other.
@@lyrics2challenged ty for the help just finished odyssey now playing Valhalla. There some things like better but I miss the Pirate wars with ships that were in Odyssey
I did something similar while being lvl 61 and fighting a lvl 81 mercenary (can't remember the name). I fought him as an glass canon assassin and i swear to god that was the most instense 15 min fight i had in this game. It felt like fighting a dark souls boss 😂
"oMg he'S a WussY!!!!! nO Skil!!" To all those who say that because he used a bow: He was playing smart. This Mercenary (By the way, Merc's are supposed to be difficult when they match your level) is over 2x his level. He could've been breathed on and there he goes, back to Kephallonia. If he went in head-on, he would've been stomped IMMEDIATELY. Just because it was with a bow doesn't mean he doesn't know how to fight or something like that. Once again, the Merc was 2x his level. I'd honestly like to see you try to beat a level 50 Merc, while you're level 24, head on. WIthout using a Sparta Kick or something that would cheese it, because that means you have no skill, according to your own logic.
Im late to this video but I killed the The Legend only on level 32 I don't know how i ran into him I was just thought he was a lower level bounty hunter but when I saw him my jaw dropped but after doing this same exact act that you did I defended him thank you for showing this video.
@@xann1452 yeah he did what title says, but when you first read the title, i bet your first thought wasnt to come see someone cheesing the game? Therefore clickbait
This is what I like about this game, you can try to kill or do any mission or person, whatever the level difference is, if you can manage it you can do it
I have been playing Odyssey, so in a mission where I have to kill a mercenary (Hyrakalos) after getting desynced twice I figured these guys can't climb up on temple rooftop...rained arrows on him 😂😂...and now I'm finding this video and I'm like oh you can do that to higher levels too. Amazing content ❤️
This is how I killed captains and mercenaries in nightmare difficulty... Sparta kick works the magic too (not always), close quarter combat is only feasible when they are alone or low health tbh
@@zmlin Well no, the whole '300' thing is slightly inaccurate there were actually 7,000 Greeks there but yes only 300 Spartans. And they also fought hand to hand so your example is kinda null and void
I killed him at level 38, he was actually pretty slow so use a sword or daggers and you can take him on by a pretty low level, watch out for the bear tho
I was lvl 36 and killed a few lvl 50s, I just summon a lietentant and them spam my poison shots and hide before lietentant dissapears. Worked every time. Beat an entire camp of guys leveled way higher than me that way
I think it’s Super cool that you killed a level 50 mercenary at level 24 but also a waste of your time because you actually have to be a level 50 to get the legendary reward still huge props
This is exactly how it should be done. Strategy is key! Hell, at lvl 4 I took on the 1st mercenary, lvl 5. I avoided him like the plague and tried to reach lvl5 to even the playing field but dude was relentless in tracking me, so at lvl 4 I saw my opportunity. While making his way through a mountain pass, I ambushed him from above with my bow. When he charged my position he found I had moved and lost track of me. I continued to take potshots with my bow, retreat and reset until he was low enough in health that I chanced an assassination attempt. He survived, but 3 hits with my spiked mace to his face was enough to finish him off. It was fantastic! This game is really impressing me!
If you are just one level below an enemy. You are ok to fight them. 2 levels, would be difficult enough. Skulls above their head. Best leave them alone!
@@montgomeryburns9979 untrue, ypu just need to have a decent build that isnt all over ths place ad you can quite easily kill and enemy 4-5 level above you. or if you're a power gamer forge one of those monserous builds dealing millions at level 20 like me, at one shot enemies 30-? levels above you
This is impressive I could never wait that long also jsyk Ik it’s a lil late to say this but you can throw torches to lure enemy’s who don’t know your location to a specific spot
My preferred method is to be a complete glass canon assassin. Your assassin damage is through the roof, but one flick on the shoulder, and you'll drop dead. Achive this via all your armor having the "assassin damage" perk and/or the "all damage" perk, as well as investing in assassin skill tree perks. Next: weapons. Use any bow that'll help with assassin damage, it'll help. You'll need the Blade of the Ephemeral, which normally is purchased with Helix Credits, but can be obtained without such with realitive ease. This sword buffs your assassin damage by 25%, but you take 15% more melee damage. Then add the perk, "+250% All Damage but cannot use abilities" onto this sword. You can get this via the Blade of Yumminess, which costs 12500 Drachmae in the blacksmith store and just has a random chance of appearing there. For your second weapon, you'll need the Falx of Olympos, which can be found in a chest at the Palace of Amphritrite, an underwater temple somewhat north and east of Thera. This spear grants you +100 damage, but your max heath is capped to 25% And that's how I'm level 42 and my assassin damage is over 200,000! Have fun using this, hehe
The archer build is insanely OP. With the good stuff and "rune", and skill level up, i was able to kill all lvl 50 mercenaries when i was lvl 41. I solo the arena and kill all ennemies easely, even the second stage of the arena with the 5 lvl 50+ champion. The passive who put poison on every simple arrow is great too... it put damage on time (less then fire) but ennemy make less damage to you. You just need to spam multi shot on group of ennemy (when you start the battle on the boat) or use the Devastating Shot on single target, in the head and full load... So much damage.
I’ve just started playing this game recently, I thought you could kill a merc many levels ahead of you and jump up the tiers. So I found 1 lured it to a high level area and it pissed off guards in a fort and got killed, went and claimed the death but it puts the high level merc just below me in the Tier rank lol same goes if you kill Exekias early, a new merc takes the mantle until you actually climb the ranks
it's easy tho...read their stats to find the weakness, keep a distance first when you face to face with them to see their attack's pattern, or you can just shoot with a bow on a higher ground like that guy
Your patience is impressive I would rather wait till I'm level 50 just because you can't use the Mace plus I like to fight all the Mercs I come across in hand to hand
@@Josef_R and from what i've seen, it's not rewarding at all to move up tiers. The only rewards you get are from the mercs you kill, so there's no point in fighting the higher level mercs until you're up there with them.
That's wild, I thought it was impossible to kill the enemies with a skull as their level. I did also did manage to beat him in melee combat 7 levels below him. It was surprisingly easy, since he is slow with his mace and I had good fire build on me, the fire dealing big amounts of passive damage
I hate the chickens and the civilians in this game, chickens are unreasonably aggressive and civilians stand way too close to a fight, then I accidentally hit them, causing them to panic and grab a weapon on the ground. When I was dealing with the cultist Kallius, so many civilians kept rushing to help him, I died so many times trying to kill kallius but once I did, I immediately got rid of the bounty if I had one

if theres better stuff do reply comes in handy
i would recomend one getting eros bow and equip its perk on the achilles bow so you get a 50% chance to not consume the special arrow you shot and +20% damage with devastating shot making the achilles bow useful with poison, fire, explosive and death arrows
achilles bow is from a merc whos name i cant remember and i think is between levels 15 and 20 on first discovery people (achilles bow is the devastating shot)
eros bow is in messenia (bottom left of the map next to lakonia) in the mines furter inland from the port in the center tunnel under that cliff (the left tunnel at the back of that mine) (eros has the arrows engraving)
abilities to have on hand for this arrow master 1 to 3 i think obtainable without getting the spear to level 1 out of 5
devastating shot
possibly beast master at max so you can have a bear aswell
maybe predator shot to guide your own arrow
if you do feel brave and go in melee you can find nyx the shadow and get the kronus daggers from her and she is level 20 when discovering the cult, look at message board near pantheon in athens she will be the only citizen with a sword (and shes in black clothes) and get the +40% damage from attacking behind perk and possibly get the +20% with sparta kick on it if you dont have it AND DODGE TO GET THAT FEW SECOND SLOW MOTION TO GET A COUPLE STRIKES ON HIS BACK
abilities
sparta kick
hero strike
sparta kick
second wind cause it will come in handy if he hits you and it isnt a 1 shot
and maybe the bull rush just in case you have to launch him
might need to get rid of worshippers of the bloodline cause of the buf you get from the full armor set from that branch literally ultimate second wind where when your health at 0 it restores it to max again and has a 1 minute cooldown thats useful for both just dont have anything that removes resistances or caps your health (you might have to go through the game to find one of the memberss

This is exactly how i completed the quest when your tasked with killing the Monger, i was very low leveled and was just camping on top of a tall roof top and firing thousands of arrows till i did enough damage so that i could go down and finish him with one hit, good times man👌🏻
7:27 That woman is just like : "Let me get comfortable to watch you strange dude killing another strange dude"
This video is not meant to display skill, but a random event that happened while i was playing.
Impressive!
And you just got your self a subscribe bro!
Or you could just kick him off a ledge
Yeah man I did the same thing with cultist and mercs but I loved how you fought and set up a battle plan
Holy shit it's hard to kill someone been 5 levels above you
Still remember the good old days where u could just aerial assassinate? Yea I do.
Gonna start by saying I started playing AC2 then went back to 1 and played all the way to 3, so I played during the actual AC games. That being said Odyssey is way more fun. Sure you could aerial assassinate, but then you get into a boring ass fight. I remember just waiting to counter/parry get in a hit or two, then repeat. That was pretty much all the combat in the early games and it is boring as fuck. Sure Odyssey doesn't have the story the early games do, but it is still a good story. I don't get why people keep comparing these games to the old ones. Aside from the same name, they are completely different and that's a good thing. I bought this game around Thanksgiving and have almost got 70 hours in the game. I haven't had this much fun in a game in a while and I still have so much left to do.
@@trevor42699 Don't worry. I have never played this game before but it is good. I just want to get nostalgic feeling. If only Assassin Creed is kind like Hit Man, it'll be a lot of fun.
@@hakimssszzz9289 Nah I definitely agree I loved those early games and part of me wishes we could go back to it. On the other hand I have had so much fun in this game and this style of game opens it to a lot more people. My roommate just bought it and it's his first AC game and he's loving it. If I were you I'd definitely pick it up on sale. Definitely my GOTY.
@@trevor42699 Good for you 😀 for me I think its GOW. Still, I hope next AC would be lit like this one. Try imagine in Japan. Becoming badass ninja fighting corrupted shogun. How awesome is that?!
@@hakimssszzz9289 Oh yeah I don't think it should have actually won GOTY, but it was my personal favorite from the year. Unfortunately I don't have a PS4 so I didn't get to play GOW which is pretty disappointing. I have been wanting a Feudal Japan for so long. I think the mercenary system in this would go well with Japan, becoming like the best swordfighter in Japan.

I just picked up this game on the newest sale, and I've totally been saying Obi Wan Kenobi quotes when kicking people off cliffs.
I watched this video throughout and I'm impressed, on how you planned your attack and managed to succeed too.
The time you took to beat him , I would be at level 50 already.
lex350us lol
🤣👍👍👍
Or just almost hiting 30
lex350us no u wouldn’t
U wouldn't even get the next level dumbass, do U even play bro?
I'm actually impressed. A lot these haters probably don't even play the game though, I feel bad you can't use the mace yet
People who don't find this impressive aren't haters... they just don't find it impressive. Fuck me it's not that hard to grasp.
Zack Weston if he could look out Greece
I have de game
It’s really fun
Try that shit on nightmare one tick of fire or poison 1 shot yo ass
I did it a different way, assassin damage from what I’ve seen does more damage so I used that to my advantage. Level 59 (me) to I think 86 (cult merc). This was on a new game+ so the levels are higher. A lot of dodging, hero strikes and a critical assassination and I eventually killed him. Managed to get to him while he was separated from his bear, just long enough for the whole fight.
He is resistant to Assassinations tho, he has a perk thingy that says "takes less damage from assassinations"
@@JimMastorakis1808 You can only do a single assassination anyway (the system doesn't allow anymore) but not sure if that perk also means all skills from the assassin tree like (Hero Strike).
Crimson Wolf: He won't see me if I snipe him from here...
*Runs out of arrows*
auto craft: am i a joke to u?
This video inspired me, I made a hunter build and went after him, only took 7 "devastating shot" headshots to finish him off.
I'm level 34 though, not 24. Thanks for the inspiration!
could you tell me what you us pls sounds really fun
@Brian Gustavo thanks man im going to to that really helps
Hi
This guy really took " patience is a virtue" lesson to heart 😂😂😂😂
I love these kinds of videos, the ones from small channels with a weird event from a new game at the time that for no reason got recommended to millions of people still getting attention years later
This is really impressive I wouldn't have the time or patience to stay hidden and aim perfectly for 7 minutes. Good on you dude nice achievement.
More like 7 hours
You're killing Exekias at level 24 yet I'm afraid to go after The Smoldering at level 42
Well if you straight up fight him it difficult. But this way is not so bad
depends on difficulty too i play nightmare and cant kill anyone higher 3 or 4 lvls with assassin build
Bruh i killed that chick just now, she's lvl 46 right?, and im only lvl 37 and yet after i killed her i can't get her goddam loot
The Smoldering is very slow but powerful. Combine that with her consistent fire attacks and that's one VERY annoying woman.
@@klemenrus3996 The slow mercs are the easiest ones by far. Just parry and counter attack, and use your adrenaline abilities. I can't stand the mercs with daggers, they're a pain to try parry. For them i just stay at a distance and jab away with my spear.
I remember watching this video when i first started playing Odyssey and thinking it was so crazy. Then I realized that you can take down any level of enemy at any level with the right build relatively easy.
Where is that arrow ability at or what is it called. I cant seem to find it. Is it a fire arrow or some type of
explosive arrows?
@@tommy9303 If you didn't yet, they're just fire arrows made in inventory lol.
@@tommy9303 oh, DPS builds OP. I have both a Poison build (for daytime battles and all our brawls where I just wanna weaken everyone while I track captains) and a fire build (normally used at night, like 200% extra fire damage lol). They're very helpful, especially against bosses that are resistant to one or the other.
@@lyrics2challenged ty for the help just finished odyssey now playing Valhalla. There some things like better but I miss the Pirate wars with ships that were in Odyssey
I forgot about these guys! Ima go download it back and beat them. Thanks for reminding me of the nearly infinite side quests!

SOJA he stole the cookie
Mr. Magnify Dummm DUmmm Dummmmmmmm.
Try to eat him xD
I did something similar while being lvl 61 and fighting a lvl 81 mercenary (can't remember the name). I fought him as an glass canon assassin and i swear to god that was the most instense 15 min fight i had in this game. It felt like fighting a dark souls boss 😂
Now do it at level 1
this guy has a level of patience that i coudl never have
And I felt so proud for killing a level 30 dude at level 27, mine was a legit sword fight tho :b
Still better than this video. I see no combat or skill in this whatsoever.
That's not lack of skill, that's playing smart against an enemy that will kill him just by sneezing in his direction.
Ye but this guy in the video is too much of a pussy to fight him head on its so easy to kill him from the roof it's not rocket science
I respect ur battle more.achillies would be very proud of that battle.not this battle of hiding on a roof all day.
Lol it was only 3 lvls apart compared to 36
"oMg he'S a WussY!!!!! nO Skil!!"
To all those who say that because he used a bow:
He was playing smart. This Mercenary (By the way, Merc's are supposed to be difficult when they match your level) is over 2x his level. He could've been breathed on and there he goes, back to Kephallonia. If he went in head-on, he would've been stomped IMMEDIATELY. Just because it was with a bow doesn't mean he doesn't know how to fight or something like that. Once again, the Merc was 2x his level. I'd honestly like to see you try to beat a level 50 Merc, while you're level 24, head on. WIthout using a Sparta Kick or something that would cheese it, because that means you have no skill, according to your own logic.
I can do it with a combo of charged assassin attack active assassin attack flash him hide rinse and repeat
But in that fact I have no skill cuz I'm cheating by being an assassin
How are mercs hard? I play on hard and they are super easy, literally no trouble at all
Smart? He tried to hit him with an arrow when he was right below him over and over again. Never worked!
@@thegreatkadeni5028 not talking about mercs of same level... in an easy difficulty game
Sparta Kick will be remembered for as long as out server isn't wiped. 😂
Im late to this video but I killed the The Legend only on level 32 I don't know how i ran into him I was just thought he was a lower level bounty hunter but when I saw him my jaw dropped but after doing this same exact act that you did I defended him thank you for showing this video.
I hate everyone hating on this vid.
John B S117 SII this video is bullshit. Clickbait as fuck
@@TheGeechman you are clickbait
@@TheGeechman he did exactly what title said you carrot UNBORN yourself
One holy BOI you twat, it’s a cheese.
@@xann1452 yeah he did what title says, but when you first read the title, i bet your first thought wasnt to come see someone cheesing the game? Therefore clickbait
This is what I like about this game, you can try to kill or do any mission or person, whatever the level difference is, if you can manage it you can do it
In actual assassins creed games you could kill anyone whenever you like and a arrow through the face would kill a person
This man deserve award for his patience!
I have been playing Odyssey, so in a mission where I have to kill a mercenary (Hyrakalos) after getting desynced twice I figured these guys can't climb up on temple rooftop...rained arrows on him 😂😂...and now I'm finding this video and I'm like oh you can do that to higher levels too. Amazing content ❤️
This is how I killed captains and mercenaries in nightmare difficulty... Sparta kick works the magic too (not always), close quarter combat is only feasible when they are alone or low health tbh
Boy, wait for someone to tell you that you've got no honor or aren't a true Spartan.
Kaiser Aaron Hbk even the 300 true spartan need a narrow alley to face an entire army, right?
@@zmlin Well no, the whole '300' thing is slightly inaccurate there were actually 7,000 Greeks there but yes only 300 Spartans. And they also fought hand to hand so your example is kinda null and void
Tyndah Well I don’t have 6999 Greeks fighting for me when I am clearing out fortresses neither
Tyndah I heard that Leonidas told all them don’t fight cause he saw fear in them.
I killed him at level 38, he was actually pretty slow so use a sword or daggers and you can take him on by a pretty low level, watch out for the bear tho
The way he runs in 2x speed after hitting the mercenary is hilarious 😂😂😂
I was lvl 36 and killed a few lvl 50s, I just summon a lietentant and them spam my poison shots and hide before lietentant dissapears. Worked every time. Beat an entire camp of guys leveled way higher than me that way
I think it’s Super cool that you killed a level 50 mercenary at level 24 but also a waste of your time because you actually have to be a level 50 to get the legendary reward still huge props
What is this legendary reward? I am tier 1, completed arena game gave me magma/fire horse. Is this it?
@@dragonet3067 ye
Umm do you mean the engraving on the weapon as he can just engrave that onto another weapon at his level. Or do you mean the tier reward
Blue Replayz regardless tho... It's very beneficial to kill higher level mercanaries so you gain a tier.
Nah he got the cultist kill.
Yeah he definitely had the paitence to pull this off, well done young assassin!💯
Alexios wasnt a damned assassin.
@@YouGotKaged yes he was a mercenary. A mercenary is basically a assassin

Podarkes: I'm way too high level you can't beat me
Kassandra: Haha *laughs in Sparta kick*
There's a reason why the Spartans considered the bow a lame weapon
Maybe they thought it was pussy
A weapon that ca slowly cut body parts vs a weapon that can shoot vital points and has a long history in history for assassinations with minimal risk

@@JudoChamp ur toy bow?
this video wow. This was the first ac odyssey video i ever watched while playing the game
here is your sub
hats off to you. the biggest skill gap i ever took was killing a level 34 Merc at level 21. Did a similar start to you, though
This is exactly how it should be done. Strategy is key! Hell, at lvl 4 I took on the 1st mercenary, lvl 5. I avoided him like the plague and tried to reach lvl5 to even the playing field but dude was relentless in tracking me, so at lvl 4 I saw my opportunity. While making his way through a mountain pass, I ambushed him from above with my bow. When he charged my position he found I had moved and lost track of me. I continued to take potshots with my bow, retreat and reset until he was low enough in health that I chanced an assassination attempt. He survived, but 3 hits with my spiked mace to his face was enough to finish him off. It was fantastic! This game is really impressing me!
If you are just one level below an enemy. You are ok to fight them. 2 levels, would be difficult enough. Skulls above their head. Best leave them alone!
@@montgomeryburns9979 bro i defeated level 5 when i was level 2 lmao

Jeez I fought this guy when I was actually prepared for him and you still killed him faster than me lol
when he gets seen and the music starts playing and it goes fast foward it sound like the minions singing XD
That you have pretty much an endless amount of arrows in this game is so overpowered.
this is like killing a level 26 mercenary while you're level 1... :mindblown:
you cant, with what abilities?

This is going to be very hard
Exploit: I’m about to end this man carrer
I know ancient times saw lions in the Judaean wilderness, but bears in the Greek polis is something of novelty.
My preferred method is to be a complete glass canon assassin. Your assassin damage is through the roof, but one flick on the shoulder, and you'll drop dead. Achive this via all your armor having the "assassin damage" perk and/or the "all damage" perk, as well as investing in assassin skill tree perks.
Next: weapons. Use any bow that'll help with assassin damage, it'll help.
You'll need the Blade of the Ephemeral, which normally is purchased with Helix Credits, but can be obtained without such with realitive ease. This sword buffs your assassin damage by 25%, but you take 15% more melee damage. Then add the perk, "+250% All Damage but cannot use abilities" onto this sword. You can get this via the Blade of Yumminess, which costs 12500 Drachmae in the blacksmith store and just has a random chance of appearing there.
For your second weapon, you'll need the Falx of Olympos, which can be found in a chest at the Palace of Amphritrite, an underwater temple somewhat north and east of Thera. This spear grants you +100 damage, but your max heath is capped to 25%
And that's how I'm level 42 and my assassin damage is over 200,000! Have fun using this, hehe
Ngl at the final hit of his health I’d finish with a crit assassination
With the level difference, one hit from the mercenary would desynchronize him

Guy: kills lvl 50 enemy at lvl 24
Me: died to a lvl 50 civillian
The archer build is insanely OP.
With the good stuff and "rune", and skill level up, i was able to kill all lvl 50 mercenaries when i was lvl 41. I solo the arena and kill all ennemies easely, even the second stage of the arena with the 5 lvl 50+ champion.
The passive who put poison on every simple arrow is great too... it put damage on time (less then fire) but ennemy make less damage to you.
You just need to spam multi shot on group of ennemy (when you start the battle on the boat) or use the Devastating Shot on single target, in the head and full load... So much damage.
I have killed this exact guy with an archer build at level 25 or something, and didn’t realize that this man was a sage in the cult.
Ubisoft: No! That’s not how you play the game!
Crimson Wolf: Ha ha mercenary go ploop
I’ve just started playing this game recently, I thought you could kill a merc many levels ahead of you and jump up the tiers. So I found 1 lured it to a high level area and it pissed off guards in a fort and got killed, went and claimed the death but it puts the high level merc just below me in the Tier rank lol same goes if you kill Exekias early, a new merc takes the mantle until you actually climb the ranks
i started this game 2 days ago lol
Thought that aswell I ended up murdering all tier 2s at level 20 yeah I was kinda mad
Fudging loved going after mercenaries and the cultists too!
Jeez. God job! I had an awful lot of trouble killing a mercenary 1 level higher than me...
it's easy tho...read their stats to find the weakness, keep a distance first when you face to face with them to see their attack's pattern, or you can just shoot with a bow on a higher ground like that guy
Your patience is impressive I would rather wait till I'm level 50 just because you can't use the Mace plus I like to fight all the Mercs I come across in hand to hand
Killing higher level mercs moves you up in the tiers.
@@Josef_R and from what i've seen, it's not rewarding at all to move up tiers. The only rewards you get are from the mercs you kill, so there's no point in fighting the higher level mercs until you're up there with them.
That's wild, I thought it was impossible to kill the enemies with a skull as their level. I did also did manage to beat him in melee combat 7 levels below him. It was surprisingly easy, since he is slow with his mace and I had good fire build on me, the fire dealing big amounts of passive damage
Legend says he is still wondering where those arrows came from
This level of dedication tho💯💯💯
He: kills the mercenary boss who is 2x his level
Me: level 99 and struggles with level 10 chicken
The chickens are deadly I don't blame you
I hate the chickens and the civilians in this game, chickens are unreasonably aggressive and civilians stand way too close to a fight, then I accidentally hit them, causing them to panic and grab a weapon on the ground. When I was dealing with the cultist Kallius, so many civilians kept rushing to help him, I died so many times trying to kill kallius but once I did, I immediately got rid of the bounty if I had one
@@SmilingSekiro they chase me even if i dont hit one of them
Just played like 168 hours over time of AC Odyssey. Switched to Valhalla and Odyssey is such a funner and well put together game.
