In *Assassin’s Creed Shadows*, the Tea Ceremony is one of the early main quests that involves some strategic decision-making. Here’s a comprehensive guide on how to navigate through the Tea Ceremony and the correct answers to choose.
Assassin’s Creed Shadows Tea Ceremony Answers
During this quest, you'll engage in conversations with various NPCs, starting with Imai Sokyu. You'll have to choose between "The tea ceremony is a spiritual experience" or "It’s a place to make contacts." Both options are acceptable, so feel free to select the one that resonates with you.
Next, you'll interact with three guests at the ceremony. Here are the optimal responses for each guest:
Guest/Prompt | Response |
---|---|
Otama | "I had a good teacher" or "I know the son well" |
Wakasa | "I’m new to Sakai" "I didn’t say where I was from" |
Satoko | N/A |
Completing the ceremony | "Turn bowl right twice" |
Confront Otama or Wakasa | Wakasa |
What Happens If You Pick the Wrong Answers?
Most dialogue options won't have significant consequences, except for the choice to confront either Otama or Wakasa. Even if you make mistakes during the ceremony, you might receive some disapproving glances from the guests or Sokyu, but the quest's outcome remains unchanged.
If you decide to confront Otama, you'll pursue her at the quest's end, only to discover she's corrupt but not the Golden Teppo you're after. This leads to the quest "Defensive Position," where Naoe continues the search for Wakasa.
Choosing to confront Wakasa, on the other hand, results in her inviting Naoe to her home, initiating the quest "Drive the Point Home," and the story progresses as expected.
