A Collection of Crests is an Assassins Creed Shadows side quest that requires you to find nine items. Let’s see what you must do to collect all nine crests!
How to Start A Collection of Crests
This side mission is available only when you play as Yasuke. You can start it as soon as you finish the Belly of the Beast main quest towards the end of the Act I chapter, An Eye for an Eye. Make your way to Kyoto and go to the Honnoji Temple. Check the houses south of the Temple to find Ota Gyuichi.

Head inside the house and talk to Ota. He will ask you to retrieve nine clan crests from containers all over the map.
How to Complete A Collection of Crests
The Kamon Crests are found in Castles. They are collectible items, so you can find them before starting the quest. Finishing the story will not lock you out of this mission. If you wish, you can go ahead with the main quests and retrieve the crests later.

- Hashiba Clan Kamon.
- Bessho Clan Kamon.
- Tsutsui Clan Kamon.
