In *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*, mastering the art of acquiring Knowledge Points is crucial for enhancing your Knowledge Rank and unlocking powerful Mastery abilities. Here’s a comprehensive guide on how to efficiently earn Knowledge Points and elevate your gameplay experience in the rich world of Feudal Japan.
Your journey to increase your Knowledge Rank involves accumulating a specific number of Knowledge Points. As you progress, the threshold for the next level increases, but fear not—there are numerous activities for Naoe and Yasuke to engage in across the game's expansive world.
Knowledge Points are earned through activities that emphasize mindfulness and skill acquisition. Here are some key activities to focus on:
While the rewards in terms of loot and XP may vary, these activities typically grant 1 Knowledge Point each.
The speed at which you can earn Knowledge Points varies with the type of activity. Early Kuji-Kiri activities for Naoe might involve longer flashback missions, while later ones are more straightforward. Kofuns can range in complexity, and the time taken for Weapon Kata and Horse Archery depends on your skill level. However, Temples and Shrines stand out as the most efficient means to farm Knowledge Points due to their consistent structure and rewards.
While some activities are character-specific, both Naoe and Yasuke can visit Shrines and Temples. For the fastest Knowledge Point farming, choose Naoe. Shrines require you to pray at a certain number of structures, and Temples involve finding a set number of Lost Pages. To maximize efficiency, use Naoe’s Focus ability (activated by holding LT, L2, or your chosen button) to highlight objectives with white or blue dots, guiding you directly to where you need to pray or find pages.
Naoe’s superior movement speed and parkour skills, including the grappling hook, make navigating these areas and reaching high-placed Lost Pages much easier and quicker than with Yasuke. Beyond Shrines and Temples, continue to engage in other Knowledge Point-earning activities to steadily increase your Knowledge Rank.
By following these strategies, you'll be well on your way to mastering the art of Knowledge Point acquisition in *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*.
