Assassin's Creed Shadows: A Blade in the Dark Walkthrough

This guide details the "A Blade in the Dark" side quest in Assassin's Creed Shadows.

Quest Details:

• Region: Harima
• Questboard: The League > Yagoro > A Blade in the Dark
• Trigger: Automatically unlocked after story progression (Act 2, precise timing unclear); requires exploring the Engyoji area to reveal the quest marker.
• Recommended Level: 41
• Reward: 1000 EXP, The Eager Assassin trophy/achievement (Meet Yagoro)
• Synopsis: A mysterious shinobi, wielding a hidden blade, assassinates several samurai, prompting Naoe and Yasuke's investigation.

Step-by-Step Guide:

1. Locate the Body: Find the quest marker ("!") in Harima > Engyoji. Investigate the corpse to initiate the quest.

   

2. Track the Assassin: The killer is located at the Hideyoshi Camp, north of your starting point. He's perched in a tree to the west of the camp.

   

3. Chase the Shinobi: Once discovered, the shinobi flees. Pursue him until he stops. A dialogue choice appears ("You have potential" or "You are sloppy"). The choice has no impact on the quest's outcome.

   

4. Engage the Shinobi: A duel ensues. The shinobi utilizes kunai and smoke bombs. Use your skills to evade and counterattack, ultimately defeating him.

   

5. Eliminate the Samurai: Proceed southwest to the building connected to Mitsunodo Hall. Locate the samurai within the westernmost structure. Neutralize the samurai to trigger a cutscene; eliminating other enemies isn't necessary. Two subsequent dialogue choices ("It is a symbol" / "It is a weapon" and "To serve others" / "Self discipline") appear but have no effect on the quest's completion.

   

6. Quest Completion: Completing this step finishes "A Blade in the Dark" and unlocks the The Eager Assassin trophy/achievement. See the Assassin's Creed Shadows walkthrough for other quests.
