When it comes to finding the best weapons for Naoe, Assassin’s Creed Shadows players really are spoiled for choice.
As Yasuke has two more weapon types available to him than Naoe does, his list of legendary weapons is quite a bit longer. A lot more of them are obtained through side quests too, so those who focus solely on the main story of Assassin’s Creed Shadows may find themselves a little light on options.
