Assassin’s Creed Shadowsis one of the most complex games of the franchise, with tons of activities to do, and lots of items to buy and upgrade. And for that, players will need money (Mon) in large quantities.
There’s no such thing as getting enough currency inAC Shadows,as Naoe and Yasukewill need lots of funds to replenish their tools, upgrade their gear, and build their hideout. So, to get things rolling, players should take a look at this guide with all the info they need on how tomake money fastinAssassin’s Creed Shadows.
Raiding Enemy Camps To Farm Mon
The fastest method to get lots of Mon inAssassin’s Creed Shadowsis to raid enemy camps, fortresses, and castles. These strongholds are usually filled with lootable chests filled with Mats, Valuables, money and Elite enemies, which can also drop Mon and Valuables when killed.
Locations such as these can be farmed each Season, at which point, they will reset including all non-legendary loot and Hideout Resources. Special quest items that were already picked, and legendary gear will not reset. Still, this is the best way to get loads of money fast. But becareful not to sell any precious resource, since the game doesn’t have a buyback option.
Best Camps To Farm Money Early In AC Shadows
The best places to farm money early inAssassin’s Creed ShadowsincludeOsaka Castle,Katano Castle,Tennoji Pagoda, and the towns ofSakaiandOsaka.
As with any location, the mentioned places reset every season, so players can spend a few runs going around and getting lots of money before they move forward with the more difficult quests in the game.
Selling Valuables To Vendors
Once players have enough Valuables to sell, which are often present in castles and enemy camps, they can go ahead to any vendor and select the option ‘Sell All Valuables’ to get a load of extra Mon.
Valuables vary in quality from Grey (common) to Yellow (legendary) and are valued accordingly. Valuables can be found in most loot chests and also dropped from enemies, so keep a close eye on looting spots to get many things to sell.
Selling Old Gear
Selling gear that Naoe or Yasuke are not using is one of the best ways to get more money inAC Shadows.The thing is, that gear is also valuable to breakdown into craft materials, useful for upgrading gear at the forge.
If players have tons of useless weapons and armor that are under-leveled, they should probably select what they want to keep and what they want to sell. Hoarding these less valuable items is not a good idea, and will confuse players every time they need to switch weapons in their inventories. Better get a bunch of extra Mon for their purses, than a lot of useless stuff.
Completing Quests And Contracts
Finally, if players are trying to make even more money, they should consider picking some Contracts from the Hideout, which refresh every season and are a sort of repeatable quest that can be done to win loads of crafting materials, Mon, and other valuable items.
Contracts come in various shapes and types, and most of them will involvekilling enemies,stealing supplies,clearing enemy camps, oreliminatingan Elite military target.
It is also important to mention that some enemies like theKabukimono Gang MembersandWandering Roninwill often drop valuable items, and can be marked for elimination following the Game Objectives, or randomly found while exploring. Pay attention to these assassination targets to earn even more money. Wandering Ronin havelots of Monand when they die, they drop around 500 to 1000 Mon, so keep an eye out for them.
Regular Quests, though only available once, also bring a lot of Mon, Experience, and other valuable rewards upon completion. So, it is up to the players to decide which of these options to take and farm Mon for their everyday expenses inAssassin’s Creed Shadows.
