Purpose of Temples in Assassin’s Creed Shadows
In Assassin’s Creed Shadows, you can explore various locations to earn Knowledge Points. Temples are one of the options. They are marked with a red icon on your map when you discover them.
 | Temples |
 | Shrines |
 | Kuji-kiri (for Naoe only) |
 | Kata (for Yasuke only) |
 | Horse Archery (for Yasuke only) |
 | Kofun |
 | Hidden Trail (for Naoe only) |
Each Temple has two or more Lost Pages scattered somewhere on the Temple grounds. They are often located in weird places like rooftops or middle of a lake.
To “complete” a temple’s objectives, you have to find the Lost Pages located within the temple’s territory. This will grant you a Knowledge Point. Knowledge Points are used to unlock higher tiers of your character’s Mastery.
Sometimes you may encounter aggressive behavior and guards in the territory of a Temple. And, as always, you are never safe from the roaming ronin. Never. Nowhere. If they see you, they will attack you immediately, regardless how sacred or peaceful an area you might be in.
