Ubisoft brings the RPG experience back to life with *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*, making it crucial to equip the right gear, especially on higher difficulties. Here's a comprehensive guide to the best weapons and how to obtain them in *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*.

Best Weapons for Naoe in Assassin’s Creed Shadows

In *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*, the pinnacle of weaponry is the legendary tier, which requires some dedication to acquire. Once you've obtained these, upgrading them is essential to meet the game’s challenges head-on.

You'll notice the absence of Kusarigamas in this list, and that’s intentional. Compared to Tantos and Katanas, they fall short in *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*. If you're keen on using a Kusarigama, opt for one with Poison effects, though they remain less effective overall. Katanas stand out as the premier choice for Naoe, followed closely by Tantos. Any of the weapons listed above will significantly enhance your gameplay.

Best Weapons for Yasuke in Assassin’s Creed Shadows

For Yasuke, the selection of top-tier weapons is more streamlined but no less impactful:

Yasuke’s arsenal, though more limited, packs a punch. The combination of Long Katana and Kanaba offers a formidable offensive strategy, particularly with the legendary options listed above.

That wraps up the guide to the best weapons for Naoe and Yasuke in *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*. For more tips and detailed guides on the game, including mastering the Tea Ceremony and locating Imai Sokyu, be sure to visit The Escapist.
