Nioh |OT| Stamina is Ki

Not open for further replies.
Finally started Nioh today. Goddamn I guess I'm rusty as hell, cause I can't beat Onryoki. I got close a few times, but I think I must've trried 30 times now. I've had a pretty bad headache today so maybe I'm not paying full attention, but goddamn, I rarely had this much trouble with any Souls boss.

Thing is he doesn't even seem that hard, he telegraphs his attacks and his second form seems a lot easier, but I just can't do it right now. I think I'm gonna rest and try again tomorrow, hopefully with a clear head.
 
Being able to toggle between action and film mode has shown me I care about fps more than I realized, and resolution less than I realized.
 
Anyone know if there are plans for full on pvp or maybe, if we're so lucky, covenants?

Just started the sixth region but I'm taking time to go back for sub missions and kodama collection. The mix of souls and ninja Gaiden combat in this game is straight up uh-mazing.
 
I've been trying to help out with random encounters for the last 3 hours or so.
4 of 5 matches end up with the host falling into a pit or getting killed after a minute of play :D

I guess I should just play a few of the high level missions for getting weapon proficiency to the point where I can do the mystic arts missions ^^
 
I'm trying so hard to get over collecting all Kodamas but it's eating me up inside not getting them all.
Fuuuu I'm at work and thinking about it right now!

I can finish the game and get them all after right? It doesn't kick me to NG+ right away?

Correct. You can also get the remaining ones in NG+ if you wish.

Kodama sense makes that pretty trivial.
 
H-E took me the most attempts of any boss in the game and I just now beat her only getting hit one time in that side missions she pops up in...just got caught once when she did that flip kick move that she sometimes does or doesn't do to end that one combo. grrr really wanted that no hit.

Do you not have a Kodama Sense item?
 
Jesus side mission
Muneshige
was nasty. Much harder than the main story one.

Is it just me or are these tutorials completely out of place and kinda useless? I mean the items they give are great, but I figure everything out long before the tutorials show up.

Took me around 40 tries. Over 4 hours. OMG. I flipped the bird at my TV screen when I finally won.

I'm not even paying attention to the story cut scene now. Still numb from that victory.

Modern Ninja Gaiden. Love it. Bosses remind me of Punch Out on NES.
 
Level 1 region 4 all missions done... Starting to get tricky. Nearly everything is a 1 shot at this point. My run is starting to turn into Gwyn's no hit on bosses rule.

Boss spoiler:

First time through I didn't really get a chance to appreciate how good of a boss okatsu is. That no tell mid range lunge attack is killer when you can't afford to get hit by it.
 
Had a pretty silly glitch where the boss "Saika Magoichi" got stuck underneath the floor and was trying to run back up but it was blocked off so my co-op partner and I just had to throw bombs and stones at him and he was down to probably 5000 health and we ran out of stuff so we both just had to kill ourselves. Most annoying glitch to happen to me thus far.
 
Can someone explain me what multiplier in the weapons means? Some weapons have bigger multipliers but lower specs in the rest,i never know what to choose.
 
Ranking of five hardest and five most fun bosses now that I've finished (both in order):

Five hardest:
Yamata-no-Orochi
Umi-Bozu
Hino-Enma
Yuki-Onna
Nue

Five Most Fun:
Giant Toad
Ogress
Okatsu
Onryoki
Obsidian Samurai (though fight was very short due to sloth)
 
its been a long while since I enjoyed a game this much, probably DS1 was the last game that sunk its teeth in quite so hard. I just started region 5, is there much left?
 
Silvard I'm going to sleep soon, I'll do the last one now

I'm not sure but I think multiplier is just the attack before stat points are calculated into it. Looking at the Attack stat should be enough
 
I thought co-op would hold me up until the DLC but pretty much every summon tonight was from the first shrine. I give up.

I wish you could be able to co-op the entire game, like pick a stage and select "I want a partner for this". Not because I'd use it, just so the regular summoning would be left for people that actually want help, not just company.

While I'm grinding in the spider castle, is there a way to get to western part of the town?
Never found a way to get there.
Near where you find a purple key to the gates of something, there'll be a hole to a spider nest you can fall into. Keep going and you'll find yourself there.

Alright Zack, thanks a lot for the help! I'll be around for anything whenever, just let me know.

Isn't this exactly what "Yokai Realm with a Companion" is?
 
Who is an axe user? I just need to see what some are doing with axe. I'm levels 64 and I'm crushing anything and everything but I been in warrior of the West armor for a long time now and want to move into something better. Just not sure how to approach it since it seems you right need higher skill or a shit load of stamina.

Im using axe for NG+. Red demon armor with Enko, Fanatic armor with suzaku, Kaida armor with anybody, or demon king with whatever spirit that guy gives are all good sets youll find throughout the game. My strength and stam are both a little above 30 and that works well with the new build. Im lv 115

farm the axe dojo mission when you unlock it for the smithing texts of his armor and wep

Fucking finally got the Smithing Text!

Time to grind Spider's Leg Husks...


hahahahaha good luck with that. Ive never encountered one in all the 10 or so times ive fought the boss. I just farm revs for divine sets.
 
I'm trying to soul match for this specific mod, but its a no go it seems. Which mod on the raikiri blocks it?

God dammit. I spent so long grinding for the platinum and now I'll never get past this last barrier!!

I literally breezed through the story and sub missions without getting stuck once, but I just can't do these last two missions.

Of course you can, especially if you breezed through the rest.

The Enemy Defeated Damage Bonus shares a the same bonus pool as Close Combat Damage.

I got 5 in 3 runs with my best luck equipment (althouhg my level is pretty high).
The really big spiders can drop it as well, which makes thing a lot easier.

Thanks, but I already done there for now.
I will check it at some point.
