NIOH THREAD

This is both a blessing of Glory and a warning of what is to come

>facebook filename
>scrubs dying to 2nd boss rehash

Yeah...haha, I have to screenshot on PS4, then send it as a message to myself, then on my phone download it, then send it as a message to myself on FB, then download it off of FB

to be honest, I think they died to the Tengu. Those shit were annoying. I beat the stage though. Second boss rehash was definitely easier than the double tengu

Why you have crystals equipped?

To refill amrita gauge for Living weapon during boss fights

>help guy with the umi bozu twilight mission
>he stands back for the entire fight and lets me handle it
>boss is at 1% hp
>runs in and dies

Go fuck yourself, making me waste a bunch of minutes for nothing

not op but they fill up your guardian spirit

>do the mission with Sengoku to find the incense burner
>only just started the level, want to fight the Karakawa guy to get high level shit
>see there are two ways to go back to the same place
>go through the inside of the boat because I'll do the entire level anyway
>dick face Sengoku just charges the Kappa and it drowns itself and immediately ends the level
>can't fight any revenants now
Go through the cave and not the boat if you want to see what else is there

>tfw friends think I suck when we play coop but I do so much better by myself

It sucks cause you dont know who the enemies will go for half of the time.

>Onryoki fight
>He's looking at my friend, getting read to throw a ball
>I'm behind the boss
>Ball flies backwards to me

The wrecking balls always fly backwards because he's swinging, you fucking retard, but good job believing that you're something better.

I'm talking about the second part of the boss fight when he breaks free from the chains dumbass. He grabs a ball to throw it at you

jesus you're a dumb cunt aren't you?

Should i just join a red covenant thing? It always looks like they are in the lead.
What even is the competition any way?

It happens pal
I beat Bloodborne twice with a 10vit character on NG+ and grinded out the best gems

Then it came time to help a friend out on Defiled Hotdog and I kept getting killed even though on my own I had the game down to the point where I wasn't even getting hit because I just KNEW what to do

When you don't know an enemy will go for you or your mate it really fucks up the balance and you have to play super safe on the dumbest shit

Any team gets a turn at being red and white, it changes after so many wins/losses
It even says so, so don't bother and just pick a team you like the bonus of

>What even is the competition any way?
Talk to the tea guy, he explains it in detail.

After lightning the third flame of the level of umi Bozo how can I get back to the shrine ? It seems there's no way back

>it seems there's no way back
Are you blind? I would like to be helpful but I don't know which flame it is you're on about

If it's the final third one that has an axe oni, you need to climb up the ladder back
There's no "no way back" as far as I've played the game, unless you jump into a boss room and beat the boss

Illiterate retard calls someone else a retard, really gets the neurons firing.

What's the best set for axe users? I feel like it's obsidian due to the fact dumping all your points in stamina gives you a bigger damage increase than in strength. Also the fucking handcannon damage you can do is insane when investing in stamina.

No it's not that one, it's the one that has a axe skeleton giant near the hot spring

there will be a partition where you can see the other side of the map from the flame (that's actually the 2nd flame in terms of map progression)
there's a wall yokai there, you'll see the talisman if you keep up
You could also walk back by retracing your steps

Never mind found it, there was a wall demon that I had to remove the talisman from. Fucking hell I hate this level.

Thanks.

No problem

Jesus Christ dude get a flash drive

I have a shit ton of em. I'm just too lazy to use it for just one image. I only use it for sharefactory shit

Just go with the clan that gives the bonuses you like the most. Toyotomi is a pretty easy and obvious choice.
Tokugawa is good if you are a shitter that dies a lot.

>sharefactory
why

WHERE MY FURUTA CLAN BROS AT?

Getting that rare shit for days

I have died 13 times to the water beast now. Some people just can't be helped.

just dodge his attacks dude it's not hard

>attempt Greater Demon Hunting sub mission when it opens
>repeatedly get one shotted
>come back later with better gear
>still getting one shot

Hmm.

Always be moving left and right

He has two beams, one where he takes a bit to charge, and another that is almost instant. Also, lighting all the bonfires work in your favor to make the fight easier.

Use fire. The boss is weak to fire. (I'm not kidding)

The second stage of the boss is EASY

Why do revenants always drop shit that's worse than the gear I have?

your issue isn't your gear it's the fact you suck and can't dodge a single fucking attack

Isn't that the level 70 onryoki quest? I think it's meant to oneshot you since you even get a fucking npc to help you.

There's a reason they died and you were able to kill them user :)

Hi DSP

I dodge most of his attacks and usually get him down to about a quarter of health, but it's still bullshit that a single attack with level 75+ medium armor is still capable of instantly killing me.

I know wanna know why almost every faggot is wearing the Warrior of the West armor.

Reporting in. I just got the mystic art for spears that extend the range. Shame that spears don't have many thrust attacks as start attack.

I'll try guys but im literally retarted

i had literally 0 issue with him
works fine on my machine

>you're lucky bastard with great gear drops
>you clean out every chest / corner and collect all loot there is unlike them
>you killed level 180 revenant in the first area somehow and the loot didn't catch up yet
Take your pick.

My nigga. Also using the spider and two trinkets that boost my luck even more while the spider power is activated.

if you still can't do it after a couple more times drop a secret word down i'll help

I don't know where my ps4 is so it might be awhile

>helping a guy with bat bitch
>he hits her a couple times and then runs away
>im doing most of the work
>everytime she does the tell for her paralyzing ranged attack she is facing the guy im helping
>it flies backwards through her body and hits me

jesus is that annoying

how do you misplace a paperweight that big dude

If you're "lazy" then why do you go through a 5-step process to post an image on Sup Forums?

>screenshot on PS4
>send it as a message to myself
>on my phone download it
>send it as a message to myself on FB
>download it off of FB

Why not just stop at step 3? Going through Facebook is worse than phoneposting.

Got shit plastered at friends house last night. So its either here somewhere, his house or his car.

use a fire talisman and run right up to him and beat his ass, his arms can't hit you that close and if you can't dodge his water shit you're a fag

Did anyone try to record both sides of coop boss fight?
Does she shoot at both players at once?

that stuff has happened since the alpha me and a friend have played nioh none stop since the alpha and the targeting was also that fucked up but no it doesn't shoot at both players at once

I love Leon the Professional

I don't know user, I'm just retarded like that

>dead thread
Is everyone playing or what?

Yes, hello user

what's good user wanna talk about life?

Which level is this?

I'm in NG+ and I'm really unlucky most of the time.
Second one is true tho

It's a side mission in the Sekigahara area.

Kuroda's Determination in the Sekigahara region

So why should I care about item drops if all the shit you can craft is better with lower reqs? Just for soul matching, which isn't worth it until endgame, or disassembling for mats, which the game already gives you a plethora of. What am I missing?

disassembling and selling are the best things to do
at this point I only pick up purple/green and disassemble the worse dupes unless it's a new piece i've never seen before

You should disamble every piece of equipment you get. Only sell talismans, or offer them at the shrine for the title.

>Get summoned for Umi-boza at last shrine
>Instantly fall into water with the trap bridge
Time for harakiri every time I get summoned now.

even the whites/yellows/blues? I don't even bother picking them up anymore unless they're a piece of equipment I've not got

They disassemble into materials that can be upgraded to highest quality. That, or you can sell them to get gold for soul matching, which I learned the hard way costs a shit ton.

What said

You can forge better materials for just like, 1 gold each. Start from forging yellow, then forge blue, then forge purple to get as much purple as you can

does it still cost as much when you get max familiarity and boost the soul matching thing with muramasa?

I wanted to smash two wooden swords together since one had EARTH on it but had a shit inherant ability, but I found it was cheaper to go with RNG and just reforge it on my better sword

>Farming Revenants in that mission where waifu Ginchiyo is with you
>Every other Revenant has full Red Demon
>Have only seen a couple with Iga Jonin, and they were the same guy who died in different places

Way of the warrior mode honestly isn't even fun. Everything just has more health and attacks slightly faster. Kind of killed my interest in playing it honestly. It's not hard it just takes slightly longer to do stuff. Completed the first two regions and don't think I'll bother with the rest.

I've died more to water than all enemies in the game combined. This level is a pain in the ass.

Oh shit, that's my clan.

whoa, me too.

LUCK BUILD BEST BUILD

The most common sets that I've found are:
Warrior of the West
Yamabushi
Iga Jonin
Red Demon

I'm probably forgetting some more but basically, later levels are filled with Iga Jonin wearers

>that one guy at level 1 constantly dying throughout the level in way of the strong

Do gear drops from revenants have the same stats as the host? The amount of people who haven't bothered to reforge good stats on their gear is insane if that's the case, let alone the fact that everyone just uses red demon.

The more time I spend on the game, the more I recognize its flaws. Often cited are the lack of enemy variety and level design, but what gets ignored is that stat progression is all but pointless. Any sense that you get of development is false; regardless of gear and defense stats, the same enemies in early stages capable of killing you in 1-2 hits will still be able to kill you in 1-2 hits 15 missions later. Doesn't matter that your stats have increased a hundredfold or more. Worse, while your damage output is indeed higher, so is the hp or later foes. This is usually seen on Sup Forums as cheap method of enhancing difficulty; really it just makes the game more tedious than anything.

Summoning visitors is another baffling fuck up in the game. If I want to help another player, it take no more than a minute to connect (and 9/10 times, it's the Umi-bozu fight). Unfortunately though, any time I've tried to summon help, my efforts have been ultimately fruitless, sitting for an hour before finally giving up. This has not happened once or twice, but at least half a dozen attempts.

tl;dr version- game is 6/10, wait for it to be on sale, don't make the same mistake I did of buying full price

They do.
Red Demon is the best light gear set. I'm using it, but I have it refashioned.

can someone fucking help me with The Defiled Castle

been stuck on it for an hour

>Beat NG
>Want to respec to mix shit up
>Dont know what to try

Formerly 1Kat Ninjustu with light armor. I kind of want to fuck around in heavy shit for NG+ but I'm not sure which sets are good.

Hopefully I can make up my mind before I waste any more respec books.

>the same enemies in early stages capable of killing you in 1-2 hits will still be able to kill you in 1-2 hits 15 missions later
You shouldn't get hit to begin with with light gear.

what are you stuck on? I did it at level 55 with a level 80 sword

okatsu

If you buy me PS+ sure.

what weapon are you using? Iai works good, kicking her is also good

if you're using an axe or spear, I don't know what to suggest for you
I would love to help but my internet is awful at this time of night on a weekend
what level are you anyway?

here you go FJR3 8Y4G NHHT

How many dung balls does this cunt want?

81 and i use spear, which i have the most skills for

is this helmet rare or something? I've never seen it before

30 for the helmet. He remembers the amount you gave him between missions. The door stays open if you replay it. Meaning you can skip the Deer guy.

It is. Platinumed the game. And have never seen it.

I don't know what he gives other than a gesture but I killed a revenant that had his helmet and didn't bother giving him any more, I think I gave him 8 normal + 1 noble shit but I don't know what that means

I havent gone past him at all so I dont know what skip you mean.
Are those shit variants of the water blobs the best way to farm dung balls?

I got tanuki helmet, going to suicide in ogress sub mission in 4 hours.

which one is that? the actual ogress "spider lily" or the second area one?

>Summoning visitors is another baffling fuck up in the game. If I want to help another player, it take no more than a minute to connect (and 9/10 times, it's the Umi-bozu fight).

This has not happened once or twice, but at least half a dozen attempts.
Lots of players wants hand holding, few players wants to help others. Instead of waiting for summon for 6 hours just learn to fight the boss yourself and help others later to balance things out.

Holy fuck that makes me want to create a heroic spear user. How do you get that?

second area

>waste
They are super cheap and you can buy them at the black smite go nuts and try anything.

A revenant I killed had it and dropped it
