How to Throw Bodies in Assassin’s Creed Origins

Recommended Videos

Similar to most stealth games, stealthily killing enemies and hiding their body from plain sight is necessary in Assassin’s Creed Origins to avoid arousing suspicion. While this is a time-consuming task, it makes navigating through enemy territory undetected way easier. If you’re in a rush or want to dispose of bodies down a structure or a body of water, you may also want to throw corpses in Assassin’s Creed Origins.

To throw bodies, hold L2 on the PS4 or LT on the Xbox One as if you’re aiming your bow, then press R2 or RT to throw them. Solely pressing R2 or RT while carrying a body will make Bayek neatly place it on the ground.

Aside from hiding corpses, you can also poison them and place it out in the open to contaminate multiple enemies. You can even throw a poisoned body on the back of a horse and make it run straight into an enemy fort. Aside from depleting their health, poison also acts as a stun during combat as enemies will stop in their tracks to vomit.

There’s definitely plenty of ways to approach each mission in Assassin’s Creed Origins. Even if you don’t plan to clear an entire enemy camp stealthily, picking enemies one by one before charging head-on will make fights more manageable.
