As players explore the ruins of Venonis in Assassin's Creed Valhalla, they will encounter a barred door. Behind this barred door is a chest that contains a piece of gear, the Hrafn Guard, though the way to reach it may not be immediately obvious. For those AC Valhalla players that find themselves stuck trying to collect the Wealth in Venonis, this guide provides full details on how to bypass the barred door.

The first thing that players that are trying to reach the Venonis armor in Assassin's Creed Valhalla should do is climb to the roof of the building with the barred door. This is because getting some elevation is the key to removing the blockade, and fans should use their new vantage points to locate a wooden platform that is attached to a nearby tree. Players should jump to this platform once it has been located and then turn to face the building that they have just leapt from.

From this position, fans should activate Odin's Sight in AC Valhalla to reveal a red mark just past the decrepit wall that stands before them. Players should now fire their bows through one of the wall's many holes in an attempt to hit that mark, and the door in Venonis will no longer be barred after they have succeeded. Indeed, fans can now enter the previously-locked building freely, and that is exactly what those that are trying to obtain the Venonis Wealth in this new action RPG should do.

Once inside of the building, Eivor should scale the wooden scaffolding in the back-left corner and approach the short side of the shack-like structure that they encounter. They should then use a melee attack to break this wall and then simply loot the chest that is revealed to them. As previously mentioned, the Hrafn Guard,  a fine light shield that increases Speed when blocking, is what fans will find inside of this cache.

While this is certainly not the only barred door in Assassin's Creed Valhalla, it is perhaps one of the trickiest to open. That is because fans typically need not leave the ground to get a good shot at a barred door, and that approach may not immediately come to mind as a result. That said, it is quite simple to reach the Venonis gear once this option is considered, and players that follow the instructions outlined above should have little trouble collecting their loot.

Assassin's Creed Valhalla is out now on PC, PS4, PS5, Stadia, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
