The Correct Drink to Pick in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla’s Forgotten Saga

There are three drinks on the table, and you will need to pick from them while working through Assassin’s Creed Valhalla’s Forgotten Saga portion of the game. However, only one of them is good and will provide you with a health upgrade, while the others are poisonous and they will cause harmful effects to you should drink it and continue n from your journey.

In our experience, the cup on the left side has yielded the best experiences and rewards us with a Health Upgrade. However, this is not always the case. When we approached this cup on another run in the Forgotten Saga, we were treated to the painful truth that Odin had been poisoned, and we did not receive a health upgrade. It turns out that these cups are randomized, and it all comes down to luck in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla.

Should you ever find yourself with these cups, you can gauge based on your current health pool if you want to run the risk of being incorrect in your choices or if you want to try your hand at receiving a Health Upgrade. It might be worth skipping the drink if you don’t think you need the health upgrade while playing the Forgotten Saga.

Because of the randomization that came down to this choice in the Forgotten Saga, I typically risked it for the option to get a health upgrade. These upgrades are few and far between. Even though I always have a 33% chance to make the correct option, I’d rather face those odds than continue on the journey without it. Assassin’s Creed Valhalla is a harsh game, and these types of risks make the game that much more exciting.
