How to unlock the Master Hunter achievement in Assassin's Creed Valhalla - Definitive Guide

There are 11 Alpha animals (referred to in game as Legendary animals) to be found and killed. There are multiple reports that the Alpha animal located in Jotunheim isn't needed for this achievement, and from my own personal experience, I did not need to kill that animal to unlock this achievement. However, you will still need to kill all 11 for the Completionist All the Way! (30G) achievement anyway. They are marked as blue dots (mysteries) on your map/compass. The locations of all 11 are as follows, in approximately the order you'll encounter them:
 
  1. Rygjafylke - Elk of Bloody Peaks
  2. East Anglia - Black Shuck
  3. Oxenefordscire - The Corpse Feeders
  4. Sciropescire - Beast of the Hills
  5. Lincolnscire - Gemad-Wulf
  6. Suthsexe - Aelfred's Battle-Sow
  7. Eurvicscire - The Blood Swine
  8. Hamtunscire - Elder and Young Lynx
  9. Hordafylke - Bear of the Blue Waters
  10. Vinland - O Yan Do' Ne
  11. Jotunheim - Steinnbjorn
As for strategies, I found that all of these large animals can easily be killed by just staying behind them. They attack forward, either by biting or lunging, and if you continually dodge behind them and strike them from the side or back, they can't hit you. As with all bosses, feel free to level up far higher than them before fighting them to make the fights much easier.
 
While you can "turn in" your killed Alpha animals at the hunting hut in your settlement, you don't need to do so to unlock this achievement. It will unlock as soon as you kill the last one.

In total you need to kill 10 legendary animals:
1. Elk of Bloody Peaks - Elk, the first of the legendary animals, can be found in Rigjafilka . Can be killed with a low power level at the very beginning of the game.

2. Black Shuck - A wolf that can be found in East Anglia east of Beodorixworth . Recommended level - 160.

3. Aelfred's Battle-Sow - a fighting bull, can be found in Sussex , in a large paddock next to Tuikki Farm. Level - 300.

4. Gemed-Wulf - Another wolf, found in Lincolnshire , south of Grimsby. Recommended level - 220.

5. The Corpse Feeders - three wolves at once (White, Big and Night), which can be found in Oxfordshire . Although there are three of them, the power level of 150 is enough.

6. Beast of the Hills - a brown bear, lives in a den in Shropshire . A little to the southeast of it on the map there will be ruins of Viriconium and near them there is a passage that leads into the cliff. Level 130.

7. The Blood Swine - a boar, can be found in Jorvikshire . The power level here should be around 280.

8. Wildcats of the Weald - A pair of legendary cats, found northeast of Wareham and southwest of the main town. Level 300 and up.

9. Bear of the Blue Waters - A polar bear that can be found in Hordafilk . Level 310.

10. O Yan Do' Ne - a legendary moose from Vinland , level 165 is enough.

11. Steinnbjorn - There's also a huge ice bear from Jotunheim that's level 400. But as far as I know, it's not on Wallace's list .

For those who don't have a creature of the hills. Climb up the mountain from the cave. You'll see a small camp there, clear it out. And at the exit by the gate I saw this bear. Kill it, go down into the cave - the kill will count.

Steinbjorn still needs to be killed for the Perfectionist's Reward! trophy and he can be killed at 130-140 power.
First you need to hit his three weak spots, which are located behind him.
The main thing is to use the ability "Norn Clarity" to quickly knock crystals off him, and for close combat you can use, for example, "poisonous strike" then it will be easy to kill him.

Steinnbjorn is not one of the required animals. All the required animals are listed in the hunter's list.

Killed almost everyone at 150 power.
Daggers + poison + Valkyrie Leap + a little skill - this is a very imbalanced combination.
You make a poison, then throw a dot with a couple of hits, and then jump with a skill. Then - according to the situation. Either throw hits (with daggers they are very fast and the cell(s) will fill up again), or dodge with catch slow-mo and do the same: throw hits. So simple that it's even sad...
