Unlock the Secrets of Veiled Tumulus: Find the Legendary Chest in AC Shadows!

by

In the realm of Assassin’s Creed Shadows, I come across these hidden gems known as Kofuns. Scattered throughout the game world, they present a thrilling side quest for any adventurer like me, daring us to uncover their secrets and claim the legendary loot chests they hide within.

In every Kofun, you’ll encounter unique platforming hurdles and brain-tickling puzzles tailored for each one. Some resemble labyrinthine locales, while others house formidable adversaries. Notably, the Kofuns are designed to be character-exclusive, implying that a single protagonist won’t be able to conquer all those on the map. For players who might find themselves in need of assistance, here’s a guide on how to tackle the Veiled Tumulus Kofun within the realm of Assassin’s Creed Shadows.

Veiled Tumulus Kofun Location in Assassin’s Creed Shadows

Heading east from the city of Obama, nestled in the Wakasa region, I stumbled upon an intriguing Kofun by the broad riverbank. Its distinctive keyhole shape makes it hard to overlook. If anyone’s having trouble finding it, a peek at the provided image should do the trick and lead them straight to its entrance.

Keep in mind that only Naoe can complete this Kofun.

All Veiled Tumulus Loot in Assassin’s Creed Shadows

In Veiled Tumulus, there are three loot chests in all. Among them, just one is a Legendary chest, while the other two contain common rewards. Interestingly, these two ordinary chests can be found on the route leading up to the Legendary chest, so players don’t have to venture off the main path to get them.

The coveted treasure within Veiled Tumulus is the Stone Heart Kusarigama, equipped with an Inscription that triggers widespread ailments upon execution of a combo. The remaining two treasure chests contain these items instead:

  • Tools Specialist Mask (Common Headgear)
  • Tools Apprentice Mask (Common Headgear)

Legendary Chest Location In Veiled Tumulus

As Naoe ventures into the dungeon, he’ll encounter a trio of adversaries. These foes will be engrossed in their separate activities, allowing players the opportunity to slip by them unnoticed if they prefer. Stick close to the right rocky outcrop and advance until you come across an obstruction with a red pottery piece nearby. At this point, toss a knife at the pot to trigger an explosion.

Keep in mind that this mechanism is essential since it will be employed frequently within this Kofun for the purpose of clearing the way ahead.

As Naoe proceeds, she’ll discover a fresh section of the cave housing a sealed-off tunnel covered with a reddish rock. To your right, there’s a slope that ascends to the tunnel’s peak. Near this spot, you’ll notice an opening resembling a window in the wall. Peering closely at it will reveal one of those explosive pots. To unblock the passage, take aim and hurl a knife through this opening.

After taking a few steps ahead, the player will come across a stretch of water. On the other side of a modest hill lies a loot chest, containing the Tools Apprentice Mask as its prize. Proceed by following the rocky cliffs submerged in the water and then leap onto the overgrown staircase with some greenery on it.

Follow the trail ahead, and you’ll encounter not one, but two more adversaries up above. Keep your gaze forward, and you’ll spot another bomb-filled container that needs to be destroyed. This action will create an opening for a tunnel-like passageway.

Naoe has the option to bypass these adversaries and dash towards the passage without engaging them if there’s no significant height difference. But if the terrain is even, it would be more beneficial to eliminate them, making the journey smoother overall.

Navigating your way into the concealed section ahead of Naoe reveals a treasure chest that can be plundered. The prize inside is the “Tools Specialist Mask”. Turn your gaze to the far side of this chest, where you’ll find another explosive barrel to detonate and clear the path forward.

This action will bring the player back to the position where the two adversarial guards previously stood. However, unlike before, if Naoe doesn’t move quickly enough, she might take a hit from one of them since this enemy is an archer. So, she could choose to run past as usual, but needs to be more cautious this time.

Keep moving ahead and climb up onto the ledge of the cave’s wall. You’ll notice another one of those “hole-like openings” on the wall. Once more, aim a knife throw through the opening toward the pot situated on the other side. The obstruction near the window will then vanish.

This version retains the original meaning but uses simpler language and avoids technical terms to make it easier for readers to understand.

As I tread through the labyrinth, I squirm my way under a colossal stone boulder, only to discover myself in an unfamiliar chamber, guarded by three formidable adversaries standing sentinel over the fabled treasure chest. Interestingly enough, these guards don’t seem to be the quickest on their feet. Consequently, I can dart behind some cover and hurl a knife at a pot perched atop this subterranean cavern, giving me a brief respite to plan my next move.

First, dash towards the chest and plunder its contents. Next, evade the incoming arrows and subsequently climb onto the roof of the cave, where you’ll discover a passage to exit.

As you progress, you’ll encounter another red pot perched atop a crate. Avoid throwing knives at it. Rather, sprint towards the crate and cause the pot to fall. This will cause the pot to detonate near the obstruction along the route.

Eventually, the exit route takes Naoe back to the original chamber where the three adversaries reside. There, she has the option to slip by unnoticed, or make a beeline for the Kofun’s entryway.
