Build a Community

Increasing your settlement level is essentially what it sounds like. Throughout the game, you’ll be tasked with Raiding areas that net you supplies and progress the story.

You’ll use those supplies to grow your community. Doing so unlocks unique buildings that you can create, allowing you to get rewards and open up storylines throughout the town.

How to Increase Settlement Level in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla

To complete a Raid and get the resources you need for your settlement, hop on your longboat and head towards one of the map’s red axe symbols. These symbols signify raid points you’ve yet to conquer.

Completing the Raid adds to your inventory of supplies. When you feel like you’ve got a nice stockpile, head back to your settlement and visit your buildings.

Outside of each building, you’ll see a signpost you can interact with. Doing so lets you access the upgrade system for that building.

Simply allocate your resources to specific buildings that you can upgrade, and your settlement level will increase accordingly.
