In the world of Assassin’s Creed Shadows, the Death Whisperer Kusarigama stands out as a coveted legendary weapon exclusive to the character Naoe. Unlike other weapons that require extensive exploration or completing side missions, this particular Kusarigama can only be obtained through the narrative progression of the game.
This comprehensive guide provides an overview of how to acquire the Death Whisperer Kusarigama in Assassin’s Creed Shadows.
How to Obtain the Death Whisperer Kusarigama
To acquire the Death Whisperer Kusarigama, players must complete the “Heads Will Roll”main quest located in Chapter Six, titled “Rebuilding.”During this critical mission, Naoe is tasked with eliminating a member of the Shinbafuku, known as The Wounded, or Wada Koretake.
Tracking the Quest
This quest will automatically track itself once you have finished all preceding missions associated with Koretake. Should this not occur, simply navigate to the Shinbafuku circle and select the quest beneath The Wounded’s thumbnail.
Mission Walkthrough
Begin the quest by meeting Kyonyo near the east side of Amagasaki Castle, close to the river. The entry point may appear somewhat glitchy. Your first objective is to dispose of all seven snipers in the area—utilize stealth tactics or direct combat to take them down effectively.
Upon neutralizing the snipers, turn your attention to Wada Koretake. You can create an advantageous environment for yourself by eliminating his bodyguards and staying out of his sight long enough to approach him stealthily. If stealth fails, prepare for a standard combat confrontation.
After successfully eliminating Koretake, you will face a moral decision regarding the fate of a captured prisoner. Regardless of your choice, the outcome will not affect the quest’s conclusion or the rewards received.
The mission wraps up with a cinematic sequence, which ultimately concludes the storyline. Upon completion, players are rewarded with valuable items, including the elusive Death Whisperer Kusarigama.
