Claw of the Tides is inside a legendary chest in the Uchinakao Burrows in Wakasa in AC Shadows. The Uchinakao Burrows are on the northernmost end of Wakasa, northwest of the Genbao Fort. The subregion is also to the northeast of the Hikidan-jo Ruins viewpoint. Alternatively, the chest lies directly east of Sotomo Gate, in line with Tsuruga Castle, as well as the Tsuruga Tower viewpoint. We recommend making your approach from Sotomo Gate or the Tsuruga Tower viewpoint, as they are the closest to the Uchinakao Burrows.

Head to the Uchinakao Burrows, where you will see a small stream passing through the area. Follow the stream north along the burrows, and you will find the legendary chest to your left atop a rock. Head over to the chest and interact with it to obtain the Claw of the Tides, a Legendary Long Katana.
