Assassin's Creed Shadows: Ibuki recruit and start romance - that's how it works

If you want, you can not only recruit Ibuki, but also data.

Inwe can recruit some allies, which we then call for support in the fight. Some of these NPCs, including Ibuki, are also available for romances. Here you can find out what you have to pay attention to to bring Ibuki into the team and catch a date.

Ibuki recruit as an ally

Requirements:You must have unlocked Yasuke and play with him after "The Rider" with him.

Quests:Talk to Ibuki in the village of Kashiwara (IGA) to start the questline. Afterwards you have to complete the missions of "defended ambush" and "return".

Decisions:Your choice in dialogues and what happens to KyoBei has an impact on whether you can recruit Ibuki. In most cases, this is not a problem. But if you want to make sure that the character joins you as an ally, you should make the following decisions with which it worked with us:

  • "I'm another now."
  • "I would forgive him."
  • "I'm here to help."
  • "Fight with us, Kyobei." - Kyobe survived
  • "The flower itself is most important."
  • "Your spirit is changing on beautiful paths."
  • "You don't have to be alone."

Ibuki's skills

If Ibuki has joined the league, the rounin is available as an ally and, if hired, can be called for help in combat.

In the Doujou we can dress and train Ibuki. With the following skills, the character bravely stands by us:

Active ability:

  • Flowers in the wind: Ibuki joins the fight and communicates effective hits.

Passive skills:

  • The rounin: Ibuki destroys the armor of close opponents.
  • Fujin's blade: Ibuki often begins in the fight of the rounin.

Enter into a romance with Ibuki

Requirements:

  • Only Yasuke can enter into a romance with Ibuki - so we have to play with him.
  • The canon mode (linear history) must not be activated.

Quest:The relationship between the two is decided in the "Capping root" mission. You start hiding when you talk to Ibuki.

Decisions:It doesn't matter whether we successfully recruit Ibuki in advance or not. However, you should have flirted with something in the previous quests. Afterwards you only have to say or do the following:

  • Dialogue option: "You have pretty eyes."
  • Collect the flowers for Ibuki
  • Dialogue option: "I want more than friendship."

Ibuki is one of many allies and optional romances. If you want to have all the characters at a glance that can join the league and/or with which you can start a love affair, look into our guides linked above.
