1) Western courtyard – First Samurai Daisho
The first of the Miki Castle Samurai Daishos can be found in the western courtyard of Miki Castle, pacing along a walkway between two great wooden buildings. He will pause at times close to a crate of supplies, making it an excellent chance for an assassination from above.
2) Northern watchtower – Second Samurai Daisho
The second Samurai Daisho is found near the base of the northern watchtower, standing close to a torch-lit path. He is always guarded by two guards, so a distraction or a speedy double assassination will be the most effective way to get the kill.
3) Central training grounds – Third Samurai Daisho
The third Samurai Daisho is in the middle training area of the castle, sparring with guards around a weapons rack. He alternates between various combat dummies, creating short openings for a stealthy takedown. A smoke bomb can be used to create an opening if the space is too congested.
4) Eastern settlement – Fourth Samurai Daisho
The last of the Miki Castle Samurai Daishos is located in the eastern settlement, right next to a smaller shed. He often stands near a well, with minimal guard presence. This makes him an easier target compared to the others, as long as you approach him undetected from the rooftops.
Unlocking the Legendary Chest in Miki Castle
Once all four Miki Castle Samurai Daishos have been eliminated, you can claim your rewards from the Legendary Chest. It is found in the northeastern corner of a building near the smaller shed in the castle’s center. It’s easy to access once the area is clear of guards.
Rewards
Opening the Legendary Chest will grant the following rewards:
- 3,000 XP
- 4 Mastery Points
- Defense Master Headwrap (Legendary Helmet that boosts defense and resilience in combat)
