Yes, but why would I use them up when they prevent the miserable little blobs from spawning in the second phase?

Get fire talisman so that you won't have to use the bonfires.

Maybe you have fire amulets too.

One of a kind weapons (so 4 lvls of familiarity) vs. rare version of the same weapon (3 lvls)

Former weapon's base attack is 3 points higher.

The former has a familiarity bonus of C- while the latter has a bonus of B

The rest of the stats are negligible.

Which one is worth investing in?

 

[GifGafIsTheBestGaf]

Assuming same level, I would go with the purple but I have no math to back it up.

We can fight some revenants if you want. youll get a few.

 

[Kaisos]

I got u. Searching now. Are you searching? Im not getting a hit. Are you searching at a shrine?

I'm up to give it another go haha, just be careful of the beam and falling off, as long as you're moving you should be fine.

I can handle most of the damage.

I managed to find another person at least twice. Searching again now, hoping I'll get one of you, lol.

Did you summon a gaffer yet? Let me know cus im searching neogaf and not getting anything.

Blue is one level higher than purple.

How in the world are you supposed to beat

Spoiler

Umi-bozu

? His

Spoiler

instant-death attack

has literally no windup or warning. How in the world is this boss meant to be killable? Why is this in the game?

Please help me understand how I'm supposed to do this. It's complete nonsense. People would be raking the game over the coals if Dark Souls 3 had anything like this.

Keep close (like up in his face close), manage your ki consumption with ki pulse, and don't get greedy with your attacks. The beam of doom has a pretty generous wind-up before Umi Bozu unleashes it. You're good if he has it tentacles out, if not, just be cautious that he'll either spit out debris at you or position himself to shoot his beam. If you have it, equip a jitsu skill called 'Quick Change'. It will revive you with a small portion of your health if you're killed. Save it for when Umi Bozu is almost down to half of his health: that is when the boss will start using that dreaded beam attack more frequently. It'll be your get out of jail for free card if he KO's you with it.

Once you have him down past 50% of his health, he'll no longer use that attack and will permanently post himself on the pier for the remainder of the fight. Good luck!

Uh, side mission The Demon's Daughter. I have the key, but the door I assume is the final door (it shows final boss dot inside the room) doesn't prompt me to open it?

Huh? I have been living a lie then.

Question for co-op gaf: do you earn tons of glory if you co-op? How does it work?

do i lose my glory earned if i quit the mission? yuki onna is so op, not even sloth gives me enough time to destroy her

also i fucked up with my equipment went from green weight to yellow and im just not used to it, i liked to dash in and out of danger

I'm pretty sure you don't lose glory like at all, use a hinamori branch (blue) just to be safe.

 

[Saprol]

common white
uncommon yellow
rare blue
one-of-a-kind purple

How do I light my weapons at the bonfires? And what exactly is "Toughness" measuring?

 

[Raybunny]

I'm running out of Ochoko Cups...

Oh wow! That was amazing. Skipped animation?

 

[Hybris]

Finished off the way of the strong missions i had left and started my level 1 naked run. Made it through all missions in the first region pretty smoothly!

How do I light my weapons at the bonfires? And what exactly is "Toughness" measuring?

Just walk up to them and press circle. Only the ones in the boss arena though. Toughness is the equivalent to poise in dark souls. It effects blocking ki loss, ki regen while blocking, and super armor on your attacks if you get it high enough.

 

[Kaisos]

Eight cups left...

Oh wow! That was amazing. Skipped animation?

Yeah, this is kinda what I mean lol...

 

[RexNovis]

It has nothing to do with luck all his attacks are heavily telegraphed. He's one of the easier fights in the game.

THe luck I am reffering to is whether or not he decides to blast off a insta death laser the second you walk through the door as happened to me a number of times. That's 100% luck based.

 

[Trace]

I feel bad for you dying on that first one. I'm confident I can kill it if you don't get hit by the beam or fall off but I haven't had the chance yet

 

[Saprol]

but you're allowed to walk before he does it

 

[Chaos2Frozen]

Blue is one level higher than purple.

Hmmm one level higher isn't that big a deal.

For me personally I would make the decision base on 1) rarity, which would give me 2) more slots and therefore 3) more bonuses, but also 4) when it dissemble it I would get more rarer material especially with full familiarity

Walk up to the bonfire and hold O.

Toughness is poise from DS

 

[uncle_koploski]

That area is what I consider to be the Blighttown of Nioh.

This is way worse than Blighttown. This area is just god damn frustrating. And the boss fight fucking sucks too.

I think I'm just tired. I'll come back to this tomorrow.

Press the options button to learn more about gear perks. It literally says press options for help on the bottom of the screen.

If anyone needs help with something gimme a password. Just going through my inventory atm.

Standing in front of him while he does it is 100% on you though

If you want to coop it let me know.

 

[WhiskerFrisker]

So you don't actually get the skill points you've used from items? That's so lame. I regret resetting my stats just to get the mystic arts.

Actually I'm a complete moron. I forgot to level up again lolololol

Trophy.

Sorry what? You get everything back you've spent when you reset

[Future]

The level in region 2 where you can fall into the water is god awful. I was having fun with this game until I got to this level. It's so frustrating fighting these enemies and constantly falling or rolling off the edge....

Bitched about this earlier in the thread. Never beat the boss, gonna try tonight

Its definitely doable, just not very fun

 

[lowhighkang_LHK]

Guys, blade spin or whirlwind for kasurigama?

These sloth talismans are bad for the game's challenge, aren't they?

Whirlwind will destroy yokai from the back easily. Test both.

 

[Morrigan Stark]

When doing coop, is there level matchmaking? If I'm OP and help someone in, say, the first area, will the game nerf me?

Anyone?

I'm going to sleep now, but thanks for the offer.
I finally got through the area and lit all three bonfires.
I'll give the boss another try tomorrow. I got him down to about half health before I lost concentration and fatally got hit by his tentacle.

Very unfun level.

 

[Zesh]

Anyone?

I believe there is level scaling, yes.

 

[Ogawa-san]

Killed Umi four times as a visitor tonight alone. I had to spec into fire talismans, was running out of amulets...

 

[gfxtwin]

The Ninja Mansion, holy shit. Just when you think your starting to get the hang of this fuck.

 

[Trace]

Anyone?

Yes it will. That being said you're still going to be stronger than everything else because it doesn't nerf you that much.

Sloth talismans make everything easy lol.

I refuse to take anyone's comments about game difficulty seriously if they're using sloth talismans.

I totally am using them though.

whoops double post

 

[Kaisos]

THANK YOU SO MUCH RAYBUNNY. GOD that boss was ridiculous.

Did you have much trouble with all the bosses or just this one in particular?

 

[Raybunny]

THANK YOU SO MUCH RAYBUNNY. GOD that boss was ridiculous.

YW. I like that boss. At lower levels he his quite a damage sponge and a progress wall. While randomly Co-poing 60% is that specific boss.

I actually think Makabishi are even better as they stay on the ground to reapply the debuff after one use and they are instant cast. The makabishi bomb is downright brutal. Causes loads of damage and lttters a huge section of the map with the makibishi.
