The Final Hearing Trophy is one of the notable achievements in Assassin’s Creed Shadows, part of the bronze category of acquirables. This achievement can be received using either of the two, Naoe or Yasuke. One of the most important things to keep in mind for this trophy is that you need a weapon with high bleed buildup. In this guide, we shall look at the easiest and fastest way to acquire this trophy.

Bleed damage is a type of continuous damage that you inflict upon your opponent. This ability charges up as you continue striking your opponent until it charges up. When an opponent is struck with a weapon equipped with high bleed buildup, the opponent begins to lose more health gradually.

Which Are the Best Weapons to Use for the Trophy?

To begin the quest for this trophy, you first need to acquire a weapon which holds the ability of bleed damage. Some of the many weapons that you should consider using for this trophy are:

WeaponsBleed-Damage Ability
Bloodshade KatanaThe bleed buildup gained over your sequence of attacks will not be lost over time. This gives you enough time to recuperate and deal the finishing blow.
Vengeful For NaginataWith every successful parry of an opponent’s attack, the bleed buildup for the gauge meter increases by 35%.
Crimson’s Edge Long KatanaBleed damage will effectively kill off opponents when their health bars are lower than two health segments.
Snakebite KatanaAs soon as a tool is used, it instantly charges your posture attacks. This increases bleed damage rapidly.

As you attack an enemy with a bleed weapon, a small drop icon surrounded by a circle appears below the opponent’s health bar. The more damage you deal, the more the bar will load up till the circle fills up. This indicates that the bar is full, and the enemy will begin to take damage over time.

Keep attacking the opponent till the gauge bar of the bleed damage fills up to full. Let the bleed damage play its trick and further drop the health of the opponent to zero, continuing with your strikes. You should use light attacks instead of heavy attacks. Using light attacks will give you more time to fill up the bar to full compared to the heavy attacks, which may accidentally kill your opponent quicker.

Now, to unlock the trophy, you have to sheath your weapon. As soon as your enemy dies, quickly sheath your weapon with the button you have set for the action. This will instantly unlock the trophy.
