The Ancient Crescent Naginata is available from a Legendary Chest at Kashiwabara Fortress. This fortress is found in the Ibu Highlands in the Omi province, to the east of Nagahama Castle and close to the eastern shores of Lake Biwa.

You cannot open the chest as soon as you get to Kashiwabara Fortress. It will be guarded by Samurai Daisho, an intimidating warrior that you must defeat first if you want to obtain the weapon. He keeps patrolling in front of the chest, so you don't have to venture all around the fortress looking for him.

Once you take him down, you can loot Legendary Chest and collect the Time-Honored Crescent Naginata as well as the Improved First Strike Engraving.

  • Ability DPS: 19,944
