In Assassin’s Creed Shadows, players can use various weapons throughout their journey across feudal Japan. These weapons are made available to players after they complete missions or loot Legendary Chests in the game.

In this guide, we will discuss everything you need to know about the Deathbloom Kusarigama, including its location, stats, and the best engraving for it.

How to Get: Location of Deathbloom Kusarigama

Deathbloom Kasurigama location

The Deathbloom Kusarigama is a legendary weapon for Naoe that boosts her stealth and combat control skills while multiplying critical damage ability. You can find this weapon in the Yamashiro Province.

You can unlock Deathbloom quite early in the game, as you don’t need to complete any missions to obtain it. It is one of the few weapons in the game that come through exploration.

The exact location of Deathbloom Kusarigama is near the Sarumaru Shrine in the Little Leaf Glade, which is a sub-region on the southeastern side of the Yamashiro Province. There are two ways to get to the Sarumaru Shrine and obtain the Legendary Weapon.

You can either arrive at the location through the Deserted Outpost (Yamashiro) or the Hijiyama Watchtower (Iga) viewpoints.

If you take the Deserted Outpost route, you will find the shrine on your east. Players coming through the Hijiyama Watchtower will see the shrine on their western side.

When you reach the shrine, use focus mode to locate the chest, which is atop a cliff overlooking the shrine.

Loot the Legendary Chest to get the Deathbloom Kusarigama and boost Naoe’s abilities in Assassin’s Creed Shadows.
