Nioh

I think we can all agree that Ox is best spiritbro

Why?

But that's not Electric Pupper (Double)

has anyone found a use for 1 kats low stance yet. I cant think of a single situation where I've needed it

>using low stance for anything
Might be good for sickle but otherwise its worthlless

I used it against the yuki onna but it didn't seem too different

What are your builds Sup Forums?

How do I fuck up this Umi Bozu?

Use it against enemies that dont block, things like skeles and undead, it stunocks them.

light the torches throughout the level to keep away his adds

get a fire enchant; you can use the torches in the boss room to get one

Spear and heavy armor, going for mostly Body and Stamina, with a couple points in heart and strength

I lit the torches, didnt use any fire though, should i not use electricity against water?

low stance is for stunlocking, and for weapons where the kick is part of a combo chain (like 1kat) it's the fastest way to initiate the kick

is this game worth getting

I've hit the second boss and i've yet to block a single attack. Is this game like DaS3 where blocking is a complete waste of time or are there times where i should use it over dodging?

max skill, mid strength and heart, big spirit and magic (but no sloth or carnage cheese)

giant ki pulses

How do I make mucho money?

Also what are the currencies on the map screen? I know what the bottom two are

Is there a housecat?

any element is better than nothing but it's specifically weak to fire

blocking is extremely good because it's instant to initiate and you can initiate it in the middle of being combo'd. you can't block everything, and how much it costs to block depends heavily on your stance (mid is best) and gear.

What the fuck do summoning candles do?

Returns your bloodstain will souls.

Yeah, Ive played DS1-3 and BB and I enjoy this a lot, its got its own unique flair and flavor to it despite the similar overall feel

>Water elemental is weak to fire
Weird, should I toss out the ox and get the fire fox back, or is it not worth it

>tfw a revenant dropped a Lv 146 Purple Tower of London Coat
How the fuck is that possible?

So far I've put 10 in everthing to get those nice bonuses, and I switch to whatever weapon im in the mood for and whatever armor looks coolest. I dont understand why you would play any other way.

i switched for that one boss fight and it helped

you go back

>want to buy nioh
>ps4 backlog looks at me angrily

>ps4 backlog
Stop lying.

its good for applying debuffs quickly. Also pretty useful against the yokai that crawl on the ground

I have uncharted 4, Doom, DS3 and EDF 4.1 unfinished, still bough neo and im enjoying the fuck out of it.

Not him but
>Yakuza 0
>Gravity Rush 2
Those just came out, I found myself rushing to complete Yakuza in order to focus on Nioh

>Can't get past the second boss
help

I need more quickslots!

Body-9
Heart-30
Dex-18
Magic-10
Spirit-20

I use low stance most of the time.
Fast hits, fast dodge and stunlocking small enemies is fun

I like using that one attack you jump on top an enemy and slash down

You can also use the bonfires in the arena get a very long fire enchant

Axe and kusa, mostly strength and dex with a little in stamina and heart

Yeah there are way too many jutsu/consumable items for just 8 slots

any tips for that slime boss? what element is it weak to?

Why that spread?

>get muneshige down to a twentieth of his health
>he does the bullshit charged lunging slash six times in a row and kills me with a high-stance follow up

I wish Dark Souls took the ranged combat of this game, ontop of headshots with ranged/melee weapons. Hitting people in the head via high stance is actually so insanely strong

Paired Raiken is really really good. Especially it's Guardian Talisman effect.

Shuriken/Kunai for when she's in the air
Maybe some Moment Talismans
Don't get too greedy and activate Living Weapon when she's out of Stamina

>uses dog at close range
>Literally nothing you can do but take damage
>Has two doges at close health

Its pretty obvious he's one of the dev teams self insert character.

I've been putting points mostly into dex, magic, and spirit.
Might respec out of dex.

What the max stat you can get in this game? 20?

>Do side quest
>Enter chamber and start killing the little kid Oni thinking they are about to transform
>They dont
>Every time I kill one I get an audio line about how they are scared and people were coming to kill them

Now I feel like a hero

>literally nothing
You can back up and dodge. If you're too slow to dodge, that's your own fucking choice and fault.

>He doesn't keep LW at the ready to secure the finisher
It's the safest way to go. Once you think you can mash him down with a single activation, pull the trigger and go full Shonen mode.

>tfw you'll never have huge juicy tanuki balls

why even fucking live ?

>No Memeamoto Musashit

He'll be in another DLC.

I have about 70 Dex right now at level 105

>they gyped us on the coop

Yes im mad.

>back up and dodge
>Here comes Shiggy with the running slash
>Ded

If you aren't at mid range already when the attack is being used. You cant evade it without taking damage.

Surely you aren't implying it's impossible to have a backlog user. I still have Yakuza 0, Tales of Berseria, and Nioh to finish.

Haven't played since the beta, what the fuck is he?
Do they summon like calling someone in to help at a shrine or is it something else

>Here comes Shiggy with the running slash
So dodge that too.
>If you aren't at mid range already when the attack is being used. You cant evade it without taking damage.
Stop making excuses user. You're simply not gud enough or you're trying to play lightweight moves on a heavyweight setup.

What's a good weapon to accompany my Spear?

Well shit.
What will we learn from him?

You can dodge that easily if you arent using a heavy equipment load setup. You can really tell who is using heavy class rolls, dont do that, always stay at around B level. It seriously affects the range you cover when dodging and how fast stamina recovers, dont forgo it in place of defence if you are trying to play fast, heavy armour is for people who prefer to block

>Dodge his second slash while you are in mid dodge from his dog!

Sure user. Keep stroking your e-dick about how good you are.

I'm not being serious user.

I'm just sayin'. He smells like the kind of legendary figure that people would pay money to meet in a DLC.

1kat is a reliable compliment to any weapon really

1kat ninjutsu unarmed is what I use. Magic for the training missions. Spirit is staying there, I just raised it just in case I find a good spirit/spirit bonuses.

I also only use light armor so I don't need a fuckhuge equipment load.

That's not jewbird

When he summons the dog run in a circle until it charges, it has shit tracking, it only ever actually gets you if you are ontop of it or are running backwards instead of sideways.

>mfw I just cheesed it running around the rock

The timing won't be fucking synchronized 99% of the time user. You're being a whiny baby. You know you can sprint too right? just sprinting backwards and to the left or right is safe enough to dodge ANYTHING he can do.

I beat this level at level 32 with absolutely unremarkable gear earned from the preceding missions. Git gud. You don't deserve one of the best Guardian spirits until you earn it.

I thought 1kat wasn't great due to Heart sucking as a stat?

>use 1kat 99% of the time
>kusarigama and 2kat proficiency still at 0
I'm not looking forward to grinding this shit endgame

1kat is excellent and heart is fine. Dont listen to ass blasted axe builds

Is there a point to the money we get?
So far the only use seems to buy shit from the smith but even with that I'm getting way too much.
I got like 100k already and stuff only costs like 5k max.

Apparently it gets a lot easier in NG+

>stacking games on top of each other
Get some shelves you savage!

When do the missions to unlock better ninjutsu appear? The starting ninjutsu are pretty much dogshit.

it just me or are axes completely OP?

Shit gets expensive out of nowhere. Still don't know how it works..

>sucking
It gives more "stamina", it does not suck at all. Weapons are better judged by their moveset than their damage too, 1kat is great.

lvl 50 soul matching costs around 400000 for one of my weapons

Someone says this about every weapon. The real OP weapon is rifles.

Is Way of the Strong this game's NG+?
btw Oda Nobunaga best boss

After the third real main mission

Okay so how do I access twilight missions?

A new tier is opened not longer after you enter each new region. Everything is shit at first. Team Ninja thought it was a good idea to lock players out from content

>Team Ninja thought it was a good idea to lock players out from content
What even is this sentence. Go to bed user, jesus.

So can I go back to old missions to find kodama? Do i have to fight the boss again or is it like the state at the end of the mission where you dont take damage?

Don't you know? If every skill isn't unlocked at the start it's artificial difficulty. In fact if the game isn't beaten immediately from the start then you're just punishing players.

Can only access at midnight I think.

There is a fucking rock the dog cannot go through you stupid fuck. If you this shitty at dodging use the god damn environment to your advantage.

Anyone have that image of all the spirits with their effects?

You mean, as in real life?

Low stance has some good combo attacks. You just need to figure out how to play low stance.

Actually, low stance and high stance are the best imo.

They rotate but l2/r2 on the map. You also have to beat the normal version of the mission.

>not hand cannons

>Bombs are extremely effective against Oni
>Ninjitsu gives bombs and you enemies drop bombs.
I love it when consumables are actually useful the only yokai that I try to fight head-on are dwellers and those little child cyclops.

Each twilight mission is a new version of the main missions with everything changed. So you first have to beat the corresponding main mission. Then, two twilight missions appear each day - just press R2 to select them from the map.

Why the fuck does Amazon say it'll take 1-2 months to ship this shit?

Sounds like a crutch that ultimately weakens you

>fighting the mini oni head on
>not taking advantage of a childs natural weakness to being shot in the fucking face
