*Assassin’s Creed Shadows* returns to the beloved open-world RPG format, where keeping your character and Hideout up to date is crucial for tackling the game's more challenging encounters. Here’s a comprehensive guide on how to quickly gather resources in *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*.

How to Get Wood, Minerals, and Crops in Assassin’s Creed Shadows

In *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*, there are three primary methods to amass resources for your Hideout:

• Completing Quests: Most side quests will generously reward you with essential resources.
• Completing Contracts: A more efficient way to farm resources, which we'll delve into shortly.
• Looting Chests: When you venture into restricted areas or castles, utilize the L2 or LT button to survey your surroundings. You'll spot golden and white orbs, indicating chests and other valuable caches. Occasionally, you'll discover large resource caches that can be tagged for your scouts to discreetly transport back to your Hideout.

Completing Contracts

As you expand your base, you'll unlock the ability to construct a Kakurega building within your Hideout. This not only increases your scout numbers but also grants access to special quests known as Contracts. These Contracts are designed to help you efficiently farm essential resources like wood, minerals, crops, as well as metal and silk, which are vital for upgrading your weapons and armor.

To engage in Contracts, navigate to the Kakurega building in your Hideout and interact with the small table inside. Here, you can browse and accept available Contracts. These will appear on your map, marked by a distinctive katana icon. Completing these quests will yield substantial resource rewards, making them an indispensable part of your strategy to significantly upgrade your Hideout.
