The number of special achievements in "Assassin's Creed: Shadow" is very large, and the Sword Art Achievement is one of them. Its requirement is to master the swordsman's way and purchase each skill in Yasuke's Samurai skill tree. You only need the first level of each skill, not every upgrade.
How to do the Assassin's Creed Shadow Sword Achievement
Purchase each skill in Yasuke's "Samurai" skill tree. You only need the first level of each skill, not every upgrade. This requires a level 6 knowledge level, and you can increase the knowledge level by making orange activity icons on the map. In addition, 4 samurai skills need to complete specific side missions to unlock. They will show "Move Further in the Story" in the Skills menu, but they come from side quests.
Samurai Station - From the optional mission "Students of Nobutsuna", automatically unlocked in Act 2 through Yasuke's main mission. You can then track it under Goal > Omi > Nobutsuna Sensei > Nobutsuna Students. The mission starts in Oe Province (it will display skills as a mission reward). The teacher will ask you to defeat his 7 students, and after the task line is completed, you unlock the skills to purchase.
Complete the optional task "Fallen Soldiers"> "Genzaburo Soldiers" The first task "Fallen Soldiers" will be automatically unlocked later in the story. This is a level 41 mission. It will appear under Harima's target menu and can be tracked from there. It leads to a waypoint in Harima, which gives us clues about the first Sword of Saburo. Killing the first will give the second a prompt. (This mission also unlocks the "leg sweeping" skill for Naoe)
Assassination Damage II - Current requirements are unknown
Complete the side quest "Yamabushi importer", starting from Yamato Province.
