How to get Mon in Assassin’s Creed Shadows

You can get Mon in different ways, but the best ones are:

Clearing Castles takes time, but it’s worth it

Castles are one of the best ways to get Mon, and that too in good quantities. The simple reason is that there are tons of loot available through chests and on enemies that you’ve killed. Castles are also filled with a handful ofSamuraiDaisho – kill them, and you can get Mon in return.

Killing a Samurai Daisho also gives you other rewards, such as Mastery Points, Legendary items, and XP.

Complete Contracts that reward Mon

While clearing Castles is a sure-fire way of getting Mon, the other great way to earn money fast is by completing Contracts that offer this currency in return.

However, getting a Contract requires you toset up a Kakuregafirst. After setting up this building, head over to the “Browse Contracts” box and look for the contract offering Mon alongside XP.

The other way to get good quantities of Mon is by selling valuables to Merchants. You can get several items by killing enemies and looting chests, sometimes you will get items that are meant for selling them to Merchants in exchange for Mon.
