1) Intro and Updates
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
As many people seem to be doing/want to do, I cleared the game as a ninja and
wanted to see what the kunoichi gets for unlocks. Having spent the last hours
Ninja 5'ing Hard in combination with some schnapps, I was too used to jamming A
at the save screen, and next thing I knew I was starting the game over. I
decided to use this opportunity to put together this guide on the many items
you can unlock in Tenchu Z.
V. 0.9 All unlocks from Ninja Training to Mission 50
1.0 Confirmed Armor and Power unlocks, simplified Secret Mission unlock,
added in-game descriptions for Feet and Lurk, made a few corrections
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
2) FAQs and Notes
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Q. Holy spades! A dog just bit me, knocked me into a cesspool, alerting two
guards, Tomikichi, and the boss! I had just got my X amount of Stealth Kills,
and since I failed I didn't get my Skill unlocks!
A. Don't worry, complete a couple missions and you should get your Skills.
Q. How do I unlock all this stuff anyway?
A. You need to play single player, a good portion will unlock just by playing
through the missions. Some will require you to accumulate Ninja 5 rankings,
others require certain amounts of Stealth Kills, or killing the Tomikichi. You
will usually be able to tell when you get some unlocks, since they are tied to
achievements. Story missions (marked with a sign or something on mission select)
also generally give unlocks, same with secret missions.
Q. Okay, so unlocks are tied with achievements, which ones don't give you any
thing?
A. As far as I can tell, the Clear X amount of Missions, Ninja 5'ing all of
a difficulty, and some of the Tomikichi killed ones do not give you anything.
Q. What if I start a new game, since they are tied to achievements, doesn't
that mean I wouldn't get some unlocks?
A. Yu will still receive unlocks at say 1,000 SKs, even if you already had the
achievement. (It just makes it harder to track your SK progress if/when you
restart)
Q. How do I unlock secret missions?
A. See: 3) Secret Missions
Q. Can I unlock things online?
A. Yes and no, you can get Stealth Kills online but nothing should unlock until
you play a single player mission, after which all that you earned online should
become available.
Q. Do Tomikichi kills count that you score online?
A. I never got the achievements online, and the general consensus seems to be
'No.' If you are getting all the achievements you will have to play through
each level 3 times anyway, so you should have plenty of chances to kill the 50.
Q. Do I need to Ninja 5 the levels to unlock things?
A. Yes and no. There are some things that appear to always unlock when you
finish that mission, others appear to require X amounts of Ninja 5s. Unlocks
from Stealth Kills/Tomikichi do not care what rankings you get, of course.
Q. I can't get Ninja 5 ranks, any help?
A. Use the Choke Hold (sword sheathed), you can hold on to an enemy indefinitely
it seems, as long as nothing hits you, or you don't walk off a slight elevation,
or try to grab people too close to shoji doors. Since the enemy can't escape,
you may wait until the meter goes red/the heart beats to kill your prey for a
Total Stealth Kill. (You can also hit Right Bumper to slam them onto the ground
to help give you cover, killing with this method doesn't draw your sword, same
with dragging them to a wall and hitting A, well, you draw it and re-sheath it)
Total SKing every enemy gives you 800 points in addition to the points from the
SKs themselves, so a Ninja 5 rank, and lots of money, is practically guaranteed.
Q. So-and-so told me that this and that unlock only on *insert random mission*?
A. Some things do indeed only unlock on specific missions, all of which should
be identified in the sections below. Some things unlock with variables, like
Ninja 5s and Stealth Kills. If you are scoring less of both, you will have a
slower unlock progression than a buddy who gets them a lot. Playing online can
also alter your progression, since you get Stealth Kills and no single player
advancement.
Q. Are there any unlocks for 100% completion?
A. Nope, but obviously you would have everything by then.
Q. It says to unlock item X on Mission Y, yet I didn't get it/got it earlier?
A. Then the item in question is unlocked by one of the variables, that is to
say Stealth Kills/Tomikichi/Ninja 5s. I could be wrong, in which case see next
question.
Q. I know how to unlock something, how do I get it added?
A. If you find the method to unlock something, and are sure it is the actual
means of doing so, send it to me via the email listed at the top and it will be
added and you have my thanks.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Notes
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
* Some unlocks may not be accurate, due to coming from a variable unlock. (This
applies to a very small amount, mostly Items)
* I played through the game on Easy, getting Ninja 5 on every mission along
with killing each Tomikichi.
* If something is said to unlock at a specific stage and you aren't getting it,
make sure you are Ninja 5'ing the mission(s)(Although from what I have seen,
the static unlocks, like the rewards after Mission 9, will always be given to
you, regardless of performance)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
3) Secret Missions - There are 5 secret missions in Tenchu Z. You get an
achievement and usually unlocks for completing each one.
You can tell if there is one by looking at the number of the missions,
since one will be missing.
To unlock them, simply complete the mission that is before it. I.e. to unlock
Mission 15, you would just need to complete Mission 14.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Here is a list of the secret missions:
Mission 7
Mission 15
Mission 25
Mission 35
Mission 44
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
4) Skills/Abilities - These are what makes your ninja a ninja, or at least
allows them to perform lots of flashy moves and wondrous skills.
These pretty much all unlock via Stealth Killing.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4a) Physical Abilities - There are three Physical Abilities: Vitality,
Strength, and Agility.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Vitality is how much life you have during a mission. It also effects the number
of Equipment slots you have.
Strength is your attack power during normal attacks.
Agility is how fast you move.
You can change how many points you have in each of those at any time in the
Ninja Village. You also unlock more points/higher max stats as you progress
through the story.
Certain amounts are required in specific abilities in order to utilize some of
the Secret Arts/Ultimate Arts/Skills, they will be greyed out if you try to use
them.
Personally, I like to max out Agility, and put Vitality > Strength, which works
for 48/50 missions.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Starting Abilities - 210 points to distribute, 100 max
First Ability Upgrade - Complete Mission 17 - 300 points to distribute, 150 max
Final Ability Upgrade - Complete Mission 37 - 420 points to distribute, 200 max
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4b) Combos - These are all available from the start. Each costs 2,000 gold and
perform a variety of effects during melee combat. Generally, they are only good
for the bosses that you are forced to face in CQC, since you really shouldn't
be engaging in melee with any other enemies in the game. If you have to though,
it sure is fun to be able to really smack those guards around.
I recommend having at least one before Mission 17, you'll probably need it.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
About Combos:
There are two choices for your melee combos. 3-Hit, strong but slow, and 4-Hit,
weak but quick. For each hit of which ever one you choose, you may assign one
of the 6 Combo moves. The attack power of the move varies based on which one it
is and by the 'Grade' of the combo hit it is assigned to. It may also change the
way the move works, for example, Fang on the last hit of the 3-Hit knocks the
enemy down along with guard breaking.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Roar - A launch attack from a standing position. Launch enemy into the air to
hit with extra blows.
Fang - A very powerful downward cut. Can break through enemies' guard.
Thrust - Sword thrust that knocks enemies backwards.
Moon - A spinning attack that hits everything around you. Good if you are
unlucky enough to be surrounded.
Tornado - A spinning attack that knocks over enemies around you but does
little damage.
Rain - A launching throw that lifts enemies into the air and smashes them
onto their heads.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4c) Secret Arts - Do you want to drive your enemies' skulls into the floor?
Amaze your friends online by crafting up to a dinner for 5? Or perhaps make
a kunoichi sound like a man? Regardless, Secret Arts are where you will find a
great supply of swell abilities to make you feel more like a ninja.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Left Trigger + X before being Attacked - These, as you can see from how you
activate them, are all used in melee combat. They need good timing to pull off,
and require your sword to be drawn.

Stagger - Get a total of 50 Stealth Kills to unlock
Shadow - Get a total of 200 Stealth Kills to unlock
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Press and Hold X then release - These moves can be a pain to pull off, and
many questions are asked about it. You must have your sword drawn, hit X so
you attack, keep X held down and approach an enemy, let go and the move should
activate.
Shock - Get a total of 700 Stealth Kills to unlock
Drop - Get a total of 700 Stealth Kills to unlock

change depending on how long you charge.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4e) Skills - These are very nice innate abilities. Lurk and Feet at level 3 make

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
5) Items - There are lots of neat items in this game, if the item is on the
following lists you automatically add it to your cache after a mission if you
find one, allowing usage until you run out of it.
When unlocking items, it adds them to the shop so you can buy as many as you
want.
Note: You only need to buy 1 Hook and B Sword, they will always stay in your
cache after usage.
Note: Most of these should unlock automatically, some appear to require Ninja 5
ranks, if it doesn't unlock, try getting Ninja 5s on stages you didn't and it
should become available.

6) Clothing - Most of the unlocks in the game are clothing, thankfully they all
unlock in large groupings.
Note: You cannot preview the clothing. If you don't want to spend money on
things you may not like, disable Auto Save from Options in the main menu. You
may then buy whatever you want, try it out, and Load your save if needed.
Generally, for example, Jacket 1, Ninja 1, and Armor 1 will all be the same
colour, so if you like red, you can try to buy all '2s,' and so forth.
Ninja/Kunoichi have different clothing, of course, but share the same general
styles, usually. A few accessories are different on kunoichi compared to ninja,
Mark and Spare are the only ones I have noticed so far.

7) The Troublesome Tomikichi
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
In each level of the game dwells an enemy called Tomikichi. They are armed with
a katana and wear a straw hat that looks like the kunoichi's unlockable
Straw/Mushroom Face items. When killed, he will always drop an item, some times
it will be a trap so don't be surprised if a smoke bomb goes off in your face
as you try to pick it up.
NOTE: You must kill each Tomikichi in all 50 missions. You can not play Mission
4 (for example) over and over to get the 50 kills. It does not matter what
difficulty it is on when you go back to find the ones you missed.
NOTE: You do not need to actually finish the mission for kill credit. You can
start the mission, hunt him down, kill him, and then return to Ninja Village.
Just make sure you save after doing so.
For every 5, 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 Tomikichi that you kill, you gain an
achievement. As of right now, I believe you only get unlocks for killing all
50 Tomikichi. (I have confirmed no unlocks for 5 and 10 so far)
Killed 5 Tomikichi - None
Killed 10 Tomikichi - None
Killed 20 Tomikichi - None?
Killed 30 Tomikichi - None?
Killed 40 Tomikichi - None?
Killed 50 Tomikichi - Face: Lion 1-6/Dog Ears 1-6; Accessories: Fox Ears,
Fox Tail, Kite, Battle Flag; Sheath: Hotdog
