How To Get Swift Shinobi Hood in Assassin’s Creed Shadows?

Find out how you can get the Swift Shinobi Hood legendary headgear in Assassin’s Creed Shadows and slow down time when enemies detect you.

Assassin’s Creed Shadows has a dual protagonist system where Naoe and Yasuke have drastically different playstyles. While the former is a shinobi-assassin who prefers the silent and stealthy approach, Yasuke thrives in open, frontal combat. As such, both protagonists have different weapons and gear, with not a single shared option. This automatically means you will have to collect individual items for both these characters, increasing your overall playtime.

The Swift Shinobi Hood is a legendary headgear for Naoe, and is also one of the best-looking headgear for her. However, you will likely not get it until at least the mid-game stages, since it is situated in a higher-level area. In this article, we will explain how you can get the Swift Shinobi Hood in Assassin’s Creed Shadows.

Where To Find the Swift Shinobi Hood in Assassin’s Creed Shadows

You can find the Swift Shinobi Hood in the Kunimiyama Fort legendary chest in Assassin’s Creed Shadows. The Kunimiyama Fort is situated in the eastern path of Iga, just to the south of Mibuno Vale. It is inside a forest region, which makes it a slightly remote region. You can easily reach it by your horse from the Mibuno Vale kakureja and then head south.

There is only one Samurai Daisho in this fort, and defeating him would unlock the legendary chest that contains the Swift Shinobi Hood. The Kunimiyama Fort is fairly linear, and there are several doors that block entries to the next inner layer. Yasuke can break these doors and rush in, although you can easily climb them as Naoe.

Once you kill the Samurai Daisho, head to the building at the northern extreme of the castle. The legendary chest will be inside this building on the ground floor. Simply interact with it to get the Swift Shinobi Hood for Naoe.

These are the stats of the Swift Shinobi Hood in Assassin’s Creed Shadows:

• Attribute 1: Health
