All Sphinx Riddle
Hummingbird
- As small as your thumb, I am light in the air. You may hear me before you see me, but trust that I’m there.
Tree
- In Spring, I am gay in the handsome array; in summer, more clothing I wear; when colder it grows, I fling off my clothes; and in winter, quite naked appear.
Sun
- Never resting, never still; moving silently from hill to hill; it does not walk, run, or trot; all is cool where it is not.
Memory
- What can bring back the dead, make you cry, make you laugh, make you young; it is born in an instant, yet lasts a lifetime.
Moon
- What is always old and sometimes new; never sad, sometimes blue; never empty, but sometimes full; never pushes, always pulls.
Mountain
- What is large yet never grows; it has roots that cannot be seen, and is taller than trees.
Stars
- At night they come without being fetched, and by day they are lost without being stolen.
Spider
- I create my lair with earthen string and dispatch my prey with a biting sting.
Time
- This thing all things devours: Birds, beasts, trees, flowers; gnaws iron, bites steel, grinds hard stones to meal; slays kings, ruins towns; and beats high mountains down.
Death
- Some try to hide, some try to cheat; but time will show, we always will meet. Try as you might to guess my name, I promise you’ll know when you I do claim.
River
- What can run, but never walks; has a mouth, but never talks; has a head, but never weeps, has a bed, but never sleeps.
Fish
- I’m alive, but without breath; I’m as cold in life as in death; I’m never thirsty, though I always drink.
Poseidon’s Trident Location (Breathe Underwater Perk)
Poseidon’s Trident is a legendary spear found in AC Odyssey. It can be found at the Temple of Poseidon, a very small island on the right-hand side of the map. The legendary chest here contains Poseidon’s Trident.
It has a unique perk that allows you to breathe underwater forever. This is particularly helpful for the underwater locations required for the Child of Poseidon Achievement.
Tips & Tricks
- Don’t buy the pegasus set at a low level, you’ll never be able to afford the upgrade costs, even buying out of the helix store for resources. It looks cool, but don’t do it, wait till 50.
- It is easiest to find crafting materials that are outside (amongst trees, etc.) at night. They sparkle quite a bit, and that sparkle is harder to see in the daylight. You’re going to need a lot more than you probably realize.
- If you have to clear a restricted area, and you don’t want to kill someone you need to eliminate to clear the area (maybe you’ve sided with Sparta and don’t want to kill any Spartans, but you want to clear a Spartan held restricted area), you can sometimes recruit that person as a lieutenant. Recruiting that person will still complete the area. This doesn’t always work, as you have to be able to completely knock the person out to be able to recruit him.
- Break down all gear you won’t use. You’ll need those resources for engraving at the blacksmith, upgrading your ship, etc.
- Restats aren’t free, you spend some drachmea doing it. Depending on your level and the number of skills you invested in will affect the price of redoing it.
- Parrying stuns your opponents and gives you a temporary damage boost. Dodging at the right moment is what slows down time, not parrying.
- You can toggle the helmet visuals on and off in the Inventory menu so that you still get the defense and effects but you won’t see it on your character.
- When a higher ranked bounty hunter or base captain is giving you trouble lure them on top of a tall building, edge, or near a cliff and spartan kick them off. Insta kills them when they hit the ground. But be wary because the heavies do not get pushed back from it too much. However, they are slow and easy to dodge.
- There is a God of War Easter egg near megaris in a cave called the cave of Kratos where you get a familiar chest piece with a leather shoulder pad with some really familiar red paint on your skin.
- The Spartan Kick in Assassin’s Creed Odyssey is actually very helpful because it allows you to break an enemy’s guard. You can also use it to kick an enemy off a cliff without killing them, not that that’s necessarily the aim of the game with all the assassinating involved.
- Another reason to pick the Spartan kick early on is that the kick itself is non-lethal, which can be used to knock mercenaries unconscious and recruit them afterwards.
- If you dodge at the right time you also get the slow-motion moment. You do not have to parry all the time. Plus if you dodge correctly you get behind enemies so you can launch your attacks and blast through them and maybe hit more than one enemy in a straight line.
