Long Katana Masteries

Efficient in both attacking and defending, this large Katana is a samurai’s deadliest and most well-rounded weapon. It allows you to quickly dispatch enemies in your path.

The Long Katana is Yasuke’s starting weapon, and a good one at that.

Naginata Masteries

The Naginata is a bladed melee weapon with a hilt of over two meters used by samurai, daisho, monk, and ronin archetypes.
