Locating the Loyal Traveler Long Katana in Assassin's Creed Shadows

The Loyal Traveler Long Katana is found within a legendary chest to the west of Kamikura Shrine, in the Kumano Sanzan district of Kii. The problem is that there is a natural obstacle along the way to the chest, so players have to discover an alternative route over or around it to get their reward.

Reaching the Legendary Chest

To reach the chest, begin at the destroyed bridge that is just east of the flagged point. With the bridge not being usable, you will need to discover another way to cross, which might need a little parkour skill. The two primary methods of crossing are:

• Swinging from a grapple hook over the gap.
• Climbing a nearby tree and making your way across the broken section.

After crossing, take the path towards the shrine. The fabled chest is located close to a blood-stained path and a dead body near the stairs of the shrine, giving the scene an air of mystery. Open the chest to obtain the Loyal Traveler Long Katana.

This legendary weapon isn’t just about raw damage — it brings a host of powerful stat boosts to Yasuke’s combat capabilities:

• Increased weapon DPS, making light and heavy attacks more effective.
• Higher posture DPS, allowing for quicker guard breaks.
• Boosted ability damage, making special attacks deadlier.
• Enhanced adrenaline gain, allowing for more frequent use of Yasuke’s abilities.

The weapon’s engraving makes it even more valuable, as sheathed attacks will be postured, making enemies vulnerable and setting them up for devastating follow-up strikes.
