I meant more along the lines of performance and controls
Oooow Hahaha. Yeah thats a biiiig difference. Nioh is smooth as butter
Well, why not just try both and see? As someone who was movie mode during the beta/alpha, I've switched to action and the framerate boost is really, really nice.
Think I will get a "Pro" though when they are available so I can have the best of both worlds.
Which one is Tempest? I dunno if I'm that far or...

Bottom of the skill tree, Mid Low Stance skill. Says that you break enemies guard and push them down.
The katana guard break where he slams them down. I saw the video posted earlier but still could use an explanation myself.
Once you break the guard you have to immediately guard yourself.
Backwave Tempest works the same way.
Perfect block > Tempest
Can i spam guard after the break or is it a small window similar to the parry?

Appreciate it. Probably during the breaking sound you hear once their guard is broken?

This is how i did it. Not the most beautiful battle but it did not cost me much trouble. This was my first time Against this boss so there might be some luck involved
Edit;
I really need to practice Ki pulse.. i kinda suck in that mechanic
Honestly, Extraction lets you use LW on bosses you're not supposed to have LW for
yeah dude
yeah dude

Can someone tell me how some reviews didn't enjoy the bosses? Every single boss is a completely new experience, has its own design and moveset and needs to be tackled in different fashion. I agree they're a little spongy but surely, the boss fights in this game are amazing? Barely any humanoid bosses too.
My advice: try to stay close and in front of him for the first phase so he uses the single ball smash. Dodge away from the one he smashes and strike him on the head. Watch out for double ball spin which he will do intermittently and if you are behind him.
Second phase try to keep your distance and keep moving. Look for obvious openings like when he falls on the floor.
Depends.
If they are in Yokai realm, their Ki will never deplete. By doing so, you're able to stagger them. Then, you can combo for as long as you still have Ki or before they "rise up".
If you're not speccing for depleting their Ki, then you gotta try and get the correct magic going to deal damage according to their weaknesses.
They were average and didn't have people to play with maybe?
They also didn't have any tips.
It's like NG2. Some bosses are piss easy when you figure them out, but the average reviewer won't find those strats for most of them.
Maybe because they can be quite challenging and they just want to rush through so they can finish their review. They don't appreciate the hold up.
I don't think the bosses are done all that well either tbh. I think it maybe comedown to their limited movesets, most might disagree but i think the humanoid bosses are the best of the bunch.
Thanks I'll keep that in mind! In which skill tree can I find these Ki depleting skills against foes?

I am attempting a level 1 run and so far I did every mission in region 1, toughest one was Muneshige.
It's actually not that hard to begin with, I just soul match the crimson armor and the Nioh weapons and I am good to go.

Typically, Hi-stance is it, although that takes a large chunk of your own.
In the skill tree you'll see skills such as Kick etc. it'll describe it to you if it does a lot of Ki damage.
Can anyone please tell me how armor classes and equip weight function in this game?
1. Do light, medium and heavy imply anything other than weight?
2. What do the threshold mean (70% I think it was, turned yellow)? Ki regen speed/use, i-frames or something else?
3. Is there a stat for stamina regeneration speed, and is there a number to it (eg can I see it on a stat screen somewhere)?

Most weapons should have one, for example katana and spear have the Kick.

I am like level 35 and that level 15 Twilight mission didn't feel like it was appropriate for level 15.
1. Not really, maybe defense.
2. Agility is graded A,B, and C which determines your evade speed, distance, and possibly Ki regen.
30% and under is A, over 30% but under 70% is B, and ofcourse over 70% is C.
3. I don't think so since the stance you are in influences how fast your Ki regenerates, but there are abilities that speed this up.

Loving this game so far, about 16 hrs in. Only have 2 complaints. The blacksmith menu revs up my PS4 pro fans every time I go there to tinker.
2nd, I hate the slow fps eniemies at a distance, reminds me of ds2. Otherwise, easily my goty contender.

1. Thanks, kind of figured. I tried to look for a skill or something like "your footsteps are silenced with light armor" that would give the class meaning.
2. Evade speed and distance. That's logical, nice. Anyone know if weight affects Ki regen?
3. Wow, stances affect Ki regen? Didn't know. So I should be switching to light stance while backing off from opponent then?!
If their sad face, they instantly lose their Ki

Omnyo magic. Pour a water talisman on your weapon.
They are pretty annoying.
I usually wait for the to stop and breathe fire and go around them instead of trying to stop them from moving or use anything water.
Luckily they also seem to have really low Ki.

I don't have a good feeling about this.
I defeated him on my second try. The greatest thing i found out is that when you use spear and do high stance, these axe guys don't get their super armor. no seriously, I knock them out of all their attack animations unless it's like really really late into them. I just mashed square square r1 (spear's high stance ki pulse is an attack if you get the skill) and he just kept getting helplessly pushed towards the edge till he fell over.

Either find a good place to snipe them from, or use a faster weapon and be sure to dodge as they try to roll at you. They seem a bit ridiculous at first but they can run out of steam pretty easy.

Stand somewhere so that when they do their big spin up attack they run into a wall. Then get in free hits after they've knocked themselves silly.
You can get silenced footsteps from one of the Ninjutsu skills.
