Read this page of Assassin's Creed Valhalla guide to learn what Suggested Power means. You will also learn how to increase your hero's power to make them stronger.

Suggested power - general information

Each region in AC Valhalla has information about its Suggested Power - Assassins Creed Valhalla: What does suggested power mean? - Exploration - Assassins Creed Valhalla Guide and Walkthrough

Each region in AC Valhalla has information about its Suggested Power. This can be compared to the suggested level of the hero, which should be reached before you decide to go there.

The red color means that Eivor's current power is more than 30 levels below the recommended power for the region. You should wait and visit that region in the later part of the game when your character gets stronger. If you decide to explore a region whose power level significantly exceeds the hero's power, you have to remember that:

  1. Eivor will deal much less damage to enemies, i.e. you will have to attack many times to kill them.
  2. Enemy attacks will deal Eivor much more damage. It is possible that a single enemy attack will kill the hero or make them close to dying.

Additional hints:

  1. Opponents with much more power than the hero are marked with a red skull. This makes it easier to see the threat.
  2. If you have entered a region that is too difficult, it is best to run away or focus on sneaking around to avoid conflict.
  3. If you want to get rid of your opponents from stronger regions without increasing Eivor's power beforehand, us the hidden blade (preferably with unlocked ability to kill elite enemies) and a bow (make sure to aim at the heads of enemies, preferably using a predator bow).

How to increase Eivor's power?

Eivor's current power is displayed in the Skills tab - Assassins Creed Valhalla: What does suggested power mean? - Exploration - Assassins Creed Valhalla Guide and Walkthrough

Eivor's current power is displayed in the Skills tab. It reflects the number of skill points spent on unlocking new abilities in the skill tree (regardless of which skills you got).

Skill points are mainly gained by leveling Eivor up. When you get enough XP and gain a new level, you always get 2 skill points. You can spend it on any skill you want. This will increase Eivor's power by 2.

There is also an alternative way of gaining skill points - completing specific optional locations on the world map. You can:

1) Find Standing Stones and solve puzzles by positioning them in the right way so you can complete the symbol using Odin's Sight - Assassins Creed Valhalla: What does suggested power mean? - Exploration - Assassins Creed Valhalla Guide and Walkthrough
