HOW TO KILL BIRDS EASILY IN ASSASSIN’S CREED ORIGINS

Recommended Videos

Along with an arsenal of different swords and spears, Bayek has access to bow weapons that he can use against enemies at range in Assassin’s Creed Origins. Powerful shots to the head cause massive damage, capable of dropping enemies with a single hit. But while shooting slow-moving guards and soldiers from distance is easy, flying targets aren’t. It is extremely difficult to kill birds in Assassin’s Creed Origins. Indeed, even players that are particularly handy with a bow will find these pesky creatures extremely difficult and sometimes tiresome to hit. Luckily, there’s a way to make this much easier on yourself.

The best method to easily kill birds in Assassin’s Creed Origins is to turn on the aim assist. By default, aim assist is set to partial, but by turning the option on to full, the crosshair will automatically track flying targets. To do this, simply access the menu by pressing start, then left on the d-pad. Now cycle the options until you find gameplay settings – there’s an option to toggle aim assist, which needs to be set to full.

With your aim assist on full, all you’ll need to do to easily kill birds is aim at the target until your crosshair turns red, draw your bow and shoot. Once the crosshair has turned red it will automatically track the target as long as you keep it within your field of view.

That is the easiest way to kill birds in Assassin’s Creed Origins. For more useful tips, check out Twinfinite’s ever-expanding wiki page.
