While exploring the first region of Assassin’s Creed Shadows, Izumi Settsu, there are nine legendary chests to discover. Each of these chests contains powerful gear and materials, and they’re well worth hunting down. We’ve got the locations and contents of all of the legendary chests in Izumi Settsu.

Old Kofun¶

The legendary chest in Old Kofun contains Amaterasu’s Blessing Legendary Trinket, as well as the Damage for Unused Ability Slots engraving. You can find it on the north-east border of the area, near the water. The trinket gives +10% damage per unused ability slot.

Makino Kurumazuka Kofun¶

This legendary chest can only be accessed after unlocking Yasuke, and contains the Blush of the Earth Legendary Bow and the Extend Clear Mind engraving. The bow also extends clear mind duration by five seconds.

Tozuku’s Lair¶

This legendary chest contains the Igan Sunset Legendary Tanto as well as the Slow Time on Escape Strike engraving. After arriving at Tozuku’s Lair, eliminate the enemies and then explore the nearby rooms to find the chest. The Tanto will slow down time on escape strike, but only if you’ve unlocked it in Naoe’s skill tree.

Koriyama Camp¶

Here you’ll find the Otakemaru’s Battlecry Legendary Trinket, and the Health for Shinobi Mastery engraving. The trinket gives +1% health per mastery point in Shinobi and +10% to stats on equipped Katana.

This legendary chest is located in the north-west corner of Takatsuki Castle inside the viewpoint building. It contains the Peasant Hat Legendary Headgear, and the Adrenaline when Entering Combat engraving. To find it, you need to defeat three samurai and find the key to the chest.

Large ship west of Burnt Village of Nakajima¶

The location of this legendary chest is fairly self-explanatory. Inside it you’ll find the Bloodshade Legendary Katana and the Afflcition Does not Drain engraving which means the affliction you apply to enemies will not deplete over time.
