In *Assassin's Creed Shadows*, the expansive open world is brimming with side activities, and one of the most rewarding is unlocking the Path of Valor chest. Here's your guide to finding and claiming this valuable treasure.
The Path of Valor challenge is conveniently located next to the Koyana Ruins viewpoint in the Senri Hills region. You can see the exact spot on the map screenshot provided above. This viewpoint is easy to unlock, so once you have it, make your way to the Path of Valor objective.
Begin at the cliff edge where you'll notice two poles marked with yellow cloth. Proceed straight and use your grappling hook to leap to the opposite cliff. Climb the wall marked with yellow paint and continue straight until you reach a point where you need to turn left after scaling the wall.
Ahead, execute another small jump to scale a wall marked with yellow paint. Continue straight, then use your grappling hook again to swing to the other side and climb yet another wall.
You'll encounter a tree with yellow cloth. Past it, cross a small bamboo pole. After dismounting, head straight and descend the slope. Following the slope, move forward, jump over another bamboo pole, and scale the wall, but veer left. Prepare to drop down the wall to another slope, then leap onto a branch to reach the wall in front of you.
On top of the wall, cross the tree trunk to reach a branch, then utilize your grappling hook to make the jump. Traverse the tight rope, which leads to a small path guiding you directly to the chest containing your reward.
Upon completing the Path of Valor, you'll earn one Knowledge Point and Tamakichi's Hood. This Epic-tier headgear boasts the following impressive stats:
This armor is an excellent early-game acquisition, offering substantial benefits with minimal effort. It's definitely worth your time to pursue.
