In Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, Winchell is a nudist you’ll meet in the Grantebridgescire region. An angry one, too, and if you manage to help him get his revenge, you can complete a new World Event named Winchell The Robesfree. This quest or Mystery can be a bit buggy, though; however, follow the guide below, and I’ll explain how to complete it. I mean, how hard can it be? We’ve dealt with a Mad King, so a Nudist should be a walk in the park.
AC Valhalla Winchell The Robesfree World Event Location
To start this quest, you must travel to the Besuncen Tor, in the north-western part of Grantebridgescire. Winchell’s location is marked on the map below. When you get to this location, you’ll find a partially naked NPC up on a hill.
I say partially because he still has his underpants on him. Now, talk to Winchell, and he’ll tell you that his sect of Pious Nudists banished him away because he became a bit too enthusiastic, as all nudists should be!
Great, so since Winchell is the founder of the sect that banished him for being naked all the time, he seeks revenge. Precisely, he wants them to wear the clothes they were born with (aka none) all the time. And your job is to steal those clothes, which are inside a crate in the sect’s camp.
Where To Find Winchell’s Clothes
From your current location (next to Winchell), you can spot the camp you’ll have to visit. It is pictured below, and all you have to do is to jump off the cliff into the lake below.
Next, you’ll have to swim towards the camp. The nudists will ignore you. Once inside the camp, look for a small crate under a tent. You can also see it in my screenshot but be advised that the moment you touch it, the nudists become aggressive. Because you know, they love their clothes.
So, grab the crate, cross the wooden bridge in front of you, and take a right turn. Keep running up the hill towards Winchell and ignore the angry and half-naked nudists. At some point, they’ll give up chasing you. Now, you’ll want to drop the crate in front of Winchell to complete this event.
The problem, though, is that sometimes Winchell’s event doesn’t end even after you bring the crate to him. If this happens, head back to the hill, jump into the lake, steal the crate again, and take it back to our naked friend. In my case, I had to do this five times to have this event marked as completed. Just so you know.
You don’t have to be chased by them. If you strip down nude, they will celebrate in your nudity then go to sleep after a drug fueled orgy, or at least I imagine its just a drug fueled orgy. They don’t show that part. But everyone does go to sleep. Then you are free to walk the crate up to the man as naked as the game allows.
Really??? Wow! Now, that’s an interesting approach. Thanks for sharing. Too bad we can’t replay quests. This would be awesome to see.
When doing this mission I accidently ran into the water and dropped the create in the lake. And ot wouldn’t let me retreave it. Now whenever I go back the create is missing and its just an empty mission that will haunt me. Does anyone else have this issue??
Try traveling back to Norway and then return to England. What you need to do is to reset the mission/NPCs. Let me know if it works
Had same happen to me…. tried travelling to the Norway, died. No create. I’m not sure what to do now but to start a new in order to get a platinum. Any help would be appreciated.
That may work, but you might as well wait for Ubisoft to patch it.
Nothing I do works…. good game but this is bullshit
Tried it again, spoke to the dancer then picked up the crate, actually worked so long as you don’t fall in the water
I did this and then after I brought the crate to Winchell I wanted to give it back, but suddenly theres just an army of nudist walking the path so I followeed them with the crate in hand. They just take a very scenic walk and end up pretty much back at the camp just on another side of the water…left the crate with them, but they were still sad it seems
