Nioh |OT| Stamina is Ki

Low attack break.

What? No way :(

That's a 1/6 chance to instant stagger on most enemies :o

Though tbh...

Close Combat Damage +15% IS like getting an A Damage bonus, so maybe I'm good keeping it like this?

here's what I'm going from

Can someone explain "Living Water: Heaven" to me? It says: Enables you to use Ki Pulse even when dodging but I don't think I am getting it to activate. Am I missing something basic?

You have to wait for the ki gauge to start charging again before you hit the evade button (X). If you don't, you'll continue to burn more ki from evading. How much of the ki you want returned is up to you. If you wait for the recharge gauge to hit its allowed maximum amount before you evade, you'll get a perfect ki pulse that will dispel any nearby yokai realm clouds the yokai may have made.

I had to figure that out myself. Just watch for the last second those blue orbs orbiting William are about to disappear, then immediately hit X.
 
Actually yeah in comparison, since that Damage Bonus A+ is just 15%, this upgrade makes sense. I just have less Ki Damage but that's fine.

I REALLY think Blue should be more rare than Gold....

edit: I forgot that increasing Familiarity will increase the attributes too..
 
Do the c
lan bonuses
work all the time or just when helping others? Which one should I join? Can't decide..

They work all the time. I joined Furuta because I wanted more Luck for loot but I've noticed that most people are in toyotomi (+10% gold and amrita). If you look at current rankings, Toyotomi is first with something like double the points of 2nd ranked clan

Edit: Clans are divided into either blue or red and every week you can get bonus glory based on whether blue or red had the most points.
 
People who freshly joined Toyotomi are like new Patriots fans. Very brave to hitch your wagon to the fastest horse.

I just wanted that Amrita bonus :(
 
I never hunt Kodama. I can stock like 11 Elixers without any just because of Ninjutsu (I think the normal cap is 8 right?) ~~ They only help give you a minimum when you die.

Pffft
 
Fuck the foreboding sea level. It can kiss my fucking ass. Shit level. Easily one of the worst I've seen in all of the 'souls and souls-like' games.
It wasn't that bad until the boss the first time I played through, but i played one of the sub missions there WOAT status, I fell into the river 20 million times, revenants out the wazoo, it was horrible
 
Lmao, at max Familiarity this Atagi is fucking nuts...

~~

bout to do my final Dojo quest for Sword (edit: omg wtf)

Man, end game is amazing in this. This is like Diablo-style. This is 10/10

Would be 11/10 if I could play as a Kunoichi
 
Is there a way to check time played?

Also I noticed my ps4 pro fans go crazy whenever I'm on the BlackSmith screen. Seems like that menu might be running at an uncapped framerate then...? Hopefully they patch that because that's the only thing that would make sense to me.

Check Load Game in the menu.
 
I'd say this is a Diablo with actually engaging gameplay. The Dark Souls comparisons might work for the first portion of this game, but i'm long past that sentiment. Gear and stats are everything. Getting good drops, roll the good perks. Using the right combination of skills.

Min maxing combined with such perfectly fine tuned gameplay... this is a GOTG contender. I don't know if Team Ninja is up for it, but they could do seasonal updates expanding this shit to oblivion. ...I should buy that season pass.
 
It really is man

This really is what I love from NGB and Demon's Souls together. I just need more verticality in the next one (Ninja option rather than only Samurai) and we done.
 
Fwiw if you join a red clan youll have no shortage of blue revenants, which translates into 2x glory.

Gods know i have to hunt down red revs, bastards are rare >_> (and then you summon them and its some heavy armor prick)
 
Now to die to
frog boss
50 times. It honestly seems like an easier fight than previous bosses but that doesn't really mean anything I guess.

Edit: Looked up boss elemental weaknesses. Been using a talisman he resists, so I'll try with the correct one next time.
 
Question to those who've completed the game

How does NG+ work? Does the game automatically go to NG+ after you've beaten the final boss? Or can you choose when to go?
 
Ok guys I'm still trying to compete this lvl 49 twilight mission. I've got 3 of the torches lit. Is there anyone who could help me? I've been at this for hours but I'm really low on ammo and it's making things way more difficult.

I can give it one go. I finished the mission earlier since I was getting cock blocked all over lol
 
I can't beat
Hino-Enma
and I'm going on 10 tries, have summoned for the last 2...

I've tried high stance axe, high stance single sword, mid stance axe/sword, low stance sword...

I'm using the anti-paralysis pills and the weakness Onmyo magic.

Halp...
 
So I'm about to face the bat lady but I only have 5 elixirs after praying at a shrine (and finding all but maybe one of the kodama). In the first mission I would restock to 8 at each shrine. Is this the max amount I can restock to right now without getting the extra from ninjitsu?

Gimme your pass
 
I'm taking a break - too worked up lol

Any tips for stances/flow for this fight? I'm Axe/Sword

You gotta stay out of her normal combo range and dash in to punish. her paralysis, you should be able to dodge each time. If she flys, Shuriken is good for massive Ki damage.

Better to stick to Low/Mid stance and beat her by attrition.
 
If I quit the game with my grave still unclaimed will it still be there when I come back? Want to know because I'm gonna stop for the day I think.
 
The spider place and its boss almost felt like a bit of a breather stage, the only instance so far where I strolled into the boss room and won on the first try.
Though this disappointed me, but that's just because before entering the boss room I was hunting a nearby Kodama and thus never got to pick it up.

I've just obtained the rule of cool Spear ability where after a low stance combo you can somersault over the enemy and even come down with an aerial strike mid jump, so rad.

It wasn't that bad until the boss the first time I played through, but i played one of the sub missions there WOAT status, I fell into the river 20 million times, revenants out the wazoo, it was horrible

Hah, this is so similar to my experience with that stage.
I actually really liked it sans boss, then I did the sub mission where it turns into Oni Town with the enemy rush finale and gosh darn that was a pain.
Oddly despite basically never falling off the stage in the main mission (except during the boss, curse that hole in the corner) I ended up botching straight off the edge multiple times in the sub mission.

Still like the stage mind you.
 
In that whole region.

On what items can I get the kodama finder? I struggle to find them in the second region.
Charms have them. There's also a special kodama helm you get as a sub mission reward but that's not till area 3 or 4. I had like 5+ charms with it by then.
