How to Get the Turquoise Zephyr in Assassin's Creed Shadows

To get the Turquoise Zephyr, players will need to travel up the hill in the Eagle's Nest area of the Yamashiro province in Assassin's Creed Shadows. The area is located east of Shoryuji, and players might have already visited it before. There's a legendary chest in the crevice at the top of the hill that players can loot to get the weapon.

To reach the legendary chest in Eagle's Nest, players can take the dirt trail to the north of Shoryuji up the mountain. There are stairs at the base of the trails that players will need to climb. Keep following the path up the hill until you spot a broken tree on the left. Use the tree to climb to a higher level, and keep running up the hill until you spot a broken bridge.

Look underneath the bridge, and you'll find a legendary chest on the back of a broken cart. Head down and open up the legendary chest to get the Turquoise Zephyr legendary long katana for Yasuke. The katana itself is one of the most beautiful weapons in the game, especially when it comes to its decorated hilt. Players will also get pushback on parry engraving that will allow Yasuke to push enemies back on every successful parry.

This perk is amazing for several reasons, one being that Yasuke will be able to handle several enemies at the same time without a sweat. The perk can also be engraved onto other legendary long katanas in Yasuke's arsenal. This will help you craft the ultimate build for Yasuke that will increase his survivability significantly.
