As you conclude your training arc with Master Enomoto in Teshio Ridge, you’ll unlock the Ghost of Yotei The Kusarigama’s Shame sensei quest. Presumably and loosely inspired by King Arthur’s sword in the stone myth, the quest tasks you with extracting Enomoto’s prized kusarigama from a stone owl statue in a hidden area behind his dojo.

The quest details don’t offer much information about what’s required to free the weapon. Here’s how to free the kusarigama from the statue in the Ghost of Yotei The Kusarigama’s Shame quest.

To free the kusarigama from the statue for the Ghost of Yotei The Kusarigama’s Shame quest, you’ll need to unlock skills and techniques in the kusarigama skill tree. You can do this by spending technique skill points acquired by bowing at Alatars of Reflection across Teshio and the other regions in Ezo. Here’s a complete list of all the required techniques:

  • Kusarigama
  • Ferocious Whirlwind
  • Claw and Talon
  • Lethal Talons
  • Evasive Maul
  • Strength of the Bear
  • Mighty Talons
  • Iron Talon
  • Ferocious Cyclone

Make your way back to the Ghost of Yotei The Kusarigama’s Shame animal carvings behind Master Enomoto’s Dojo in the north of Teshio Ridge. Equip the kusarigama (hold R2 + right on the D-pad), and then approach the kusarigama and tap triangle when prompted to free it from the statue.
