How to obtain the Claw of The Tides Long Katana in Assassin's Creed Shadows

In Assassin's Creed Shadows, Yasuke's inventory is full of lethal tools, but only a few are as remarkable as the Claw of the Tides Long Katana. This legendary weapon is not simply about raw damage — it also increases Adrenaline Gain, letting Yasuke execute powerful attacks more often. However, the actual game-changer is its engraving, which charges Posture attacks on hit with a Posture attack immediately, making it an ideal pick for aggressive, relentless fighting.

Here’s how you can obtain this legendary Katana in AC Shadows.

In order to get to the legendary chest, approaching it from either the Sotomo Gate or the Tsuruga Tower perspective is easiest because those areas are closest to known landmarks. You can also check out Tsuruga Castle if you need more legendary chest rewards.

Concerning the Claw of the Tides, once you arrive at the Uchinakao Burrows, look for a small stream running through the area. Follow this stream northward, and you’ll eventually spot the legendary chest sitting atop a rock on your left.
