Ymir’s Tear Stones have to be collected from different places in Asgard through various tasks. There are a total of 30 tear stones in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, and all of them have to be collected so that they can be used to get a reward.
The Ymir’s tear stones of Ymir are hidden in chests, or you might even have to solve puzzles to get them. Moreover, as you progress, it becomes more and more challenging to collect the stones. The last pair of stones can only be collected if Fenrir is defeated, which isn’t an easy task.

It can be quite a hassle to find all the 30 Ymir’s tear stones, especially when they are scattered on 6 islands. This is where we fit in. We have played, collected, and compiled all 30 locations for the 30 collectibles to make the entire process easier. They have been listed below!
Ymir’s tear stones location 1
Players can find the first collectible near Heimdall’s Tower, which is northwest of Asgard and close to the Gate to Jotunheim. Then head to the north of this area. From here, you will descend the cliff to reach a beach. Finally, you will be able to spot a small camp on the beach which will have a chest. Open it to get your first Ymir’s tear stone.

On the same island, you will be able to find the second precious stone. Head over to northwest of Asgard and then move towards the east of Heimdall’s Tower. Here you will see many white pillars. Your next step will be to move towards the top of the slope present close to the pillar, which is connected to the rope. Once at the top, take the oil jar and hop on the pillar to follow the rope to reach a cracked wall ultimately. This is where the oil jar will come in handy. Use it to destroy the wall and retrieve the treasure chest behind it. Viola! You now have the second Ymir tear stone.

Here you will look around and find the chest that has your next stone.

Head inside that crack and use the Sunstone by positioning the light beam close to the second Sunstone (located next to the cave entrance). Additionally, move towards the second Sunstone so that you can position the ray of light into an alcove present on your left side.

Your next step in the game would be to move south and kill a giant who will be having the Stone Key. Additionally, cross a crack in the wall to reach an area which many enemies guard. In the center of this area will be the chest that has your precious stone. But remember, this chest can only open with the stone key you previously got your hands on.
Ymir’s tear stones location 28
Once you have gotten your hands on the 27 stone, look beside the chest. There will be a statue. Climb it! Moreover, as you reach the upper part of the area, you will have some freedom to move to the chest located just below the Utangard Chasm. If you find any difficulty spotting it, use your Odin Sight and locate it with ease.
Ymir’s tear stones location 29
To get your second last stone, walk to the island, which is located west of Asgard. Look for a crack on the mountain because you will be getting in through it. Once inside, move on the path which is to your right. Equip yourself with a torch so that the gas nearby can be dissipated.
This way, you will fall on a chest by opening, which you will get penultimate Ymir’s Tear Stones.
Ymir’s tear stones location 30
After all this hard work, it’s time for one final mission to get the last stone. Start the mission, i.e., “The Big Finish,” and walk south of the island to enter a cave inside of which there will be a red door. In this area, while looking around for some paint to get for yourself, you will be able to find the chest, which will have the last precious stone, after which you can get your reward.
The Reward
Finally, once you have collected all the 30 Ymir’s tear stones, you may be wondering how to use them. Go to the eastern side of the northernmost island, where you will find the Offering Altar in Asgard. There will be a statue on the Altar. Go and talk to him. Then, the statue will reward you with five skill points (if you have all the 30 Ymir’s tear stones).
For many players, the five skill points as a reward for these stones are disappointing since a lot of effort has to be put in to collect these precious stones. However, if you look at the bright side as a player, you will notice that you have filled in your mystery tabs and what is more rewarding than that.
