Assassin’s Creed Valhalla: How to solve the Well of Urd light beam puzzle
While it might seem simple at first glance, the Well of Urd puzzle can be quite tricky to figure out. There are two switches that you’ll need to hit with light beams, but only one beam to work with. The first thing you need to do is head to the light beam turret farthest from where you entered and point it at the prism above the entrance door. We’ve included an image of this prism below. This will split the beam into two beams.

One beam will trigger the beam to the left of the door. You can point this one down at the moveable glass orb on the lower platform. You’ll need to move this around to get the angle just right to hit the switch closest to the entrance. Once you’ve done this you’ll need to direct the other beam through the remaining turrets.
You can see the correct configuration in the image above. We have our back to the entrance in it. Head around to the final turret in the chain and aim it down at the second switch. This will destroy the barrier ahead. Make sure you’ve collected all you can in this area first, as you cannot climb back up the well. You can now jump into the Well of Urd.
