1) Southern courtyard – First Samurai Daisho

The first of the Fukuchiyama Castle Samurai Daishos is located in the castle's southernmost courtyard and can be taken down easily.

---

2) Northwest buildings – Second Samurai Daisho

After defeating the first Daisho, head along the perimeter wall northwest. The second Daisho is close to the buildings in the northwest part of the castle. Approach with caution, as other guards patrol the area.

---

3) Northernmost buildings – Third Samurai Daisho

Stay on the perimeter and circle around to the north edge of the castle. The third Daisho is located close to the structures here, so coming in quietly from the rooftops is a good tactic.

---

4) Northeast tower – Fourth Samurai Daisho

Proceed to the northeast end of the castle, where a tall tower will be visible. This is the Fukuchiyama Tenshu lookout point, and the fourth Daisho is found in its vicinity. A silent elimination is the best approach here to avoid alerting reinforcements.

---

5) Castle center – Fifth Samurai Daisho

The last of the Fukuchiyama Castle Samurai Daishos is located in the center of the castle grounds, and there are several guards around him. A diversion or stealthy ranged attack is the best way to get him alone for an assassination.
