The River Raids update in AC Valhalla is a DLC for the game which lets players enjoy both the voyage and looting/raiding aspect of the game. The missions in River Raids consists of raiding military camp bases and looting weapons, armor or any other collectibles.

Although, you have to fight a lot of enemies in all the River Raids missions. Might I suggest you to keep a lookout and definitely collect all the pieces of the Saint George Armor Set so that you can use it in Eivor’s main story.

2. How to Start the River Raids in AC Valhalla?

To start the River Raids, players need to approach Vagn in Ravensthrope and start the tutorial on how to take command of the longboat. After doing so, Vagn will request to upgrade the Jomsviking Hall before starting the raids.

After completing the River Raids, your main concern should be returning to the main game. If you haven’t been able to figure it out, here is a simple way.

After meeting Vagn in Ravensthorpe and building him a longship dock for voyage, the players can unlock the first River Raid mission titled “A River to Raid” where the goal is to simply loot a military supply chest.

The River Raids missions are concentrated in three rivers: River Exe, River Severn, and River Dee. Each river’s map is unlocked when Eivor completed the mission assigned and has a chat with Vagn.
