With the dual protagonist system in Assassin’s Creed Shadows, you will have to farm separate weapons and items for both Naoe and Yasuke. The light-footed and nimble Naoe uses the light armors, while our brute Samurai prefers the heavier armors. As a result, you will often have to spend a lot of time to collect each legendary gear for both our heroes, which will eventually take a significant amount of time.

The Tools Master Gear is a legendary light armor for Naoe that you can get during the early stages of the game. This is a unique armor that has a special perk, which can often kill another enemy if your Tool skills with the Kunai are upgraded. In this article, we will explain how you can get the Tools Master Gear in Assassin’s Creed Shadows.

You can get the Tools Master Gear from the Katano Castle legendary chest in Assassin’s Creed Shadows. Katano Castle is situated in Izumi Settsu, just to the south of Osaka. If you remember correctly, this is the same castle that Naoe had infiltrated during the prologue missions of AC Shadows.

There are two Samurai Daishos in Katano Castle whom you must defeat to unlock the legendary chest. Once you have taken care of both these elite enemies, simply head to the top floor of the highest building here. You can make your way from the inside of this building via the stairs. However, you will have to fight countless enemies here. An easier way is to climb to the top floor using your rope tool. Here, you can find a trapdoor/latch that will allow you to drop in.

Simply interact with the legendary chest here to obtain the Tools Master Gear legendary light armor for Naoe.

Tools Master Gear has the following stats in Assassin’s Creed Shadows:

  • Attribute 1: Health
  • Attribute 2: Critical Damage
  • Attribute 3: Vulnerable Damage
  • Attribute 4: Damage with Tools
  • Default Engraving: Throw a Kunai at the closest enemy after an Assassination

The Tools Master Gear has a special perk that will automatically throw a Kunai at the nearest enemy after you successfully assassinate someone. This is a great perk to have, especially if you do not have the Tanto to use the double assassination skill. Simply assassinate one enemy, and Naoe will throw a Kunai at the second one. If your Tools skills are upgraded, this can do a significant amount of damage, and can even kill someone with a critical hit.
