Like I said, try sprinting more than actually dodging. I would get close for a slam, sprint to a side and get some hits, then just book it to the other side of the room, that way I didn't have to worry about the swing. If I got in and it looked like a swing was coming, I would book it again, if it was a slam I'd have time still to get a hit or two. Again it was more about speed and movement for me than damage.I was using dual swords and low stance for the whole fight, never really had to worry about running out of ki.
Second half is the same, but he does a few different slams and a running jump slam, as well as throwing the ball. Again just move around as much as possible, and only get hits when you can, and don't get greedy.
Again, no expert, but I found speed and sprinting to be better than dodging.
First go to system>online settings>and set a secret word to on>tell me secret word. Go to shrine look for where it says summon and offer a cup. I'll join you then.
If you want help from a specific person, set your password in your online settings, then go to a shrine and summon a visitor.

So, Magic vs. Ninjutsu, any preference?
The heals from magic seem nice, plus discord debuff.

This is cool. Is there a list of smithing plan drops from bosses somewhere? I'd love to farm some new ones.

Are you in way of the strong or not? You need to be in Way of the Samurai, you can switch at the country map.
Hit R3 when you're at a shrine.

are you guys serious when you say Nioh is hard ? or harder than any soulsborne ??
i find it extremely easy compared to soulsborne
i'm near the ending and i beat a boss without even paying attention, i was talking to my brother and i was surprised when i find out that i actually damaged 80% of his health without even realizing
the game is miles easier than any soulsborne game, even a lot easier than Dark souls 3(which is made for casuals and newcomers of the series)
i also see a LOT of you saying that
is a very hard boss, are you kidding me ?? the only boss that i actually found to be hard or in the level of soulsborne series bosses difficulty was

What was difficult in Souls if this game wasn't?
Nioh isn't hard, but neither is Souls...
Anyway, do the O & H mission and let us know how that went
Nah bruh they just like saying it and being made fun of. Now if your done rubbing one out to your own glory how about helping those that need help. The elitism is getting out of hand if you have the skills put them to good use and foster the community. Don't put people down because they can play a video game as good as you can man.
Nothing. Not sure what games he played, but there are no bosses in Souls that are more difficult than the harder Nioh boss fights.
Weird.... Had to select mission and password on. While before the patch the password was enough.
they stopped extraction keeping LW up

Guys, I don't think there's level scaling in this game... Like, I really don't. Plus you can get greens from the first boss
Nice so I can still piss people off by using it in my single player game? I see today's twilight mission is perfect for you know what!
Pro-tip: Don't read what he's posted in the rest of this thread. Guy has some garbage opinions.

Thanks Guy who helped me, Made minced meat of the boss lol.

i think a big part of the difficulty in souls games is the smart AI, for example, most bosses when you try to heal yourself they charge at you and kick your ass to prevent you from healing
in Nioh, the AI is stupid as fuck, they keep missing you and you can do a combo on them and they try to attack the air
go play a training mission in the Dojo, novice or advanced, for way of the warrior(sword), you will fight a boss that many here say he's hard, while i beat him without him touching me, i just kept spamming Quickdraw, run away, calculated my distance, Quickdraw.... and repeat
the AI in Nioh is broken
Try getting your Agility below 30%, you might find the dodging helps you a lot. You have the right idea with the boss.

where can i find this O&H mission ??
Damn someone was quick, I was about to post I can't join and you already finished it lmao. Well that's good, keep at it! Next boss is a pain in the ass bit there is always help. Just enjoy the game and have fun making builds, many of the missions can be co-oped so keep that in mind.

It is the same with most big Bosses in soulsborne just try stay behind the legs and Go to town.
Am enjoying the game except this that got me stuck as hell. This really is a souls formula game, Done right.. looking at you lords of the fallen.
oh you will know. It'll unlock as a side-mission, just before the final battle.

if you need help with any boss up to the first mission of Region

If he says that fight is easier than anything in souls I'm calling bullshit. There is no single fight in any of the Dark Souls series outside of maybe the Bloodborne DLC that is as hard as it.

Boss
took me a few tries but very satisfying when it was taken out. Baiting said boss into a whiffed attack from the right distance, toss in a quick round of low axe smacks, repeat pretty much sums it up.
Had more trouble getting that
summon from the previous area's sub-mission. Frickin'
surprise.
I do like the variety of summons in this game, sometimes using one that may not be ideal just for variety.

cool, hope it doesn't have cheap tactics and calls itself hard
I have Platinumed the Souls and BB games and there is no difference in the AI between the two games. There is no smart AI. They have certain moves they do. They're really only interested in your position relative to them. They aren't paying attention to try and punish you for healing.
This game has more complex combat than any Souls game and if you don't learn it, you're going to have a rough time.
Now I'm very curious as to what you think is truly difficult boss encounter in a Souls game.

Which one is O+H? o_0
Like Umi which was too hard because it had a hp bar + adds. Adds in action game are so cheap.

Of coarse it was you Izuna! Swooped right in. Seriously thanks for helping out the community and not being a ass about it (this and others TF2, etc.)

When you beat the final boss of the game do you automatically go to NG+ or can you manually initiate it?
I'd like to finish the game solo first, but keep my original game to co-op with my friend.

nope, he was easy, i was just being cheap on using fire amulet
There is no point of no return, you basically get to play NG+ while keeping normal game
