Todo clan on suicide watch
>Todo got patched>thread dies
>Todo clan players adding "get life on my gear" to their todo listsThat's kino.
What are the best clans now that todo and shinsengumi got nerfed?
>>733736109there is no overall "best clan"you're supposed to level up multiple and combine different blessings to find the perfect ones for your own builds
In NG+ how do I know which lesser spikes still give me max spiritforce considering that they keep regenerating if you clear a crucible? I lost track which ones I did. Is there a max spiritforce?
>>733736534>ow do I know which lesser spikes still give me max spiritforce considering that they keep regenerating if you clear a crucible?there's literally no way to tell lmao, sorry>Is there a max spiritforce?yes but idk what it is because there's numerous factors other than spikesyou can tell when you're all done by your guardian spirit enhancement bonus though, the current max is 84, 42 from ng, 42 from ng+
Patch really exposed all the Todo shitters on here.
Just finished the game, that final boss and entire game were peak kino but I really have to askWhy do people keep dying on top of rooftops?
>Lost 15% damage reduction when attacking thanks to the patch nerfs
What do? I skipped some cutscenes and dialogue cause it sucked. As far as I can tell my boy's innocent and it was all the dumbass ancient grugbarian king poisoning his brain?
>>733736806>Why do people keep dying on top of rooftops?it's incredibly easy to accidentally fall off them
>>733736869yeshe dindu nuffin, let him live
>>733736109Todo was one thing, but they shit on Shinsengumi.
i wish i could look like her
>>733737197in game, right?
>>733737025Its still like a 7.5% melee damage increase, just about inline with the other buffs.
>>733737270
>>733736869His will should have been stronger to resist the mind control, he deserves to be decapitated.
I didn't use Todo (or damage taken reduction for that matter) and can confirm all bosses except Kunimatsu are fair.
>>733737984Also some yokai really needed buffed, others were OK, 8-9 deaths is alright.
Any good spots to farm lvl to 250 or just kill shit whenever you like?
>>733739238>she loves it!
>>733739238What's the lore behind them turning into ancient rotting demon women sometimes?
>>733739238Her horns look like a pair of dog dicks.
>>733737984kunimatsu isn't even hardtutorial masakage? now that's a fight that will put hairs on your chest
>>733738685Do a lot of co-op. I got MILLIONS of Amrita from it.
>>733739973Masakage really benefits from you having nothing at the beginning. It's rather weird they put him there without a longer lead up for you to get some more stuff. Beat him first try on NG+.
>>733740407thisfirst fight in the game? miserable experience with nothing unlocked>ng+completely and utterly pushed his shit in
>>733739948self-report
Beat the entire game using only samurai, time to use a mix of ninja/sam in NG+Any skill suggestions or tips you guys got?
>>733738685That battle scroll where you fight the Shinsengumi shitters and maybe four heavenly kings on ng+
hardest boss so far
>>733739545She's just a little tired, and needs to suck some Amrita outta (you).
>>733741815oh so that's what this thing was
>>733735508>Shinsengumi clan >affix on all equipment>first captain set bonus>hollyhock set bonus>Murakumo>constant Pleiades>max duration and gauge charge allowed from Titles>still only have 32% gauge charge and a little over 18% durabilityQuickly anons, what else can I pump Living Artifact with?
>>733741724lightning calamity is the best jutsu in the gameice calamity is even better pointblack as a backstab shotgun
>>733742448fuck all, LA is gimped to shit in 3
Just beat the game first time, final boss was okay, first tried it. But that's fine I don't really wanna be sweaty, just enjoyed it for what it's worth. Game is way better than Nioh 2.
>>733742448you literally get more out of just using the super move right at the end of LW than any amount of actual stats you can give itLW doesnt end if you are in a martial art (works for sword of meditation btw), and every weapon has a super move you can start with any amount of gauge left and it'll last the full duration
>>733736869You already spared two other retards who got mindcontrolled so there's no reason to not spare him
Am I fucking crazy or does the date clan blessing "efficient guardian skills" not work?

>>733743026this appearance is a little too common from hosts needing co-operators
>>733735508>>733735669>>733735734It's kind of funny because it's still really strong, like as a tonfa user I get more out of remodeling my tonfa's from str scaling to stam. Than I get out of constitution which already scales with tonfa, both offensively and defensively.Like I went from 7k life to 4900 life on 99 Stam, it's like 4.5k if I flip my current consitution and Stam number. As a tonfa player I'm more upset honestly about the lack of meaningful defensive affixes Ninja gear has, as nerfing -%DT while attacking actually hurts Ninja more due to it's already lower amounts of the stat than it harms sam players. Full disclosure it's fine currently in this very moment and I take very little damage in my mostly min maxed gear. I just am worried about ninja becoming a glass canon that has to dodge perfectly as we get into NG++ no matter how much we invest into defenses. That fear may not come to pass.
Someone teach me how to play 1 katana really well please.
>>733743662>BRO if barely clothed spies with tools cant be JUST as durable as heavily armored warriors how can they COMPETE?!
Nigger boss
>>733744172I kinda like the wriggler.
>>733744149That's not what I said and you know it, I said they have no defensive tools and that the current best tool for both samurai and ninja got nerfed in a way that disproportionately affects ninja, not samurai where it was egregious.I did have a blurb for Ninja's defensive profile going int dlc 1 and ng++ but that's more born out of how many half screen 360 sweeps and perfect tracking there is in 3 which makes 100% dodging very difficult.
>>733744172>beat him up in statue mode>hold down block through the entire dark realmreal cool design
>>733743662>As a tonfa player I'm more upset honestly about the lack of meaningful defensive affixes Ninja gear has, as nerfing -%DT while attacking actually hurts Ninja more due to it's already lower amounts of the stat than it harms sam players.this is mathematically false%DR gets better the more you have.at 0% DR, 10% give you the same effective health boost as 1% gives you at 90%, it gets exponentially better, and lower values matter extremely littlegoing from 90% to 70% literally hurts twice as much as going from 50% to 0%>t. warframe player

What's the best divine effect to have on a crucible weapon? Melee damage or +25 element?
>>733744783element always
>>733744172>>733744250>>733744467>dark realm phase
>>733744525That's exactly what I'm saying though, Ninja maxes out at around 45ish% pre patch, while Sam was 80%+ I even saw some screenshots in this thread of 95%. Even at just 45% even though it's exponentially worse, it was still our best defensive layer we had. Also PoE player that's why I was going by that logic.
why did they go with the silly hammer designs instead of the kino kanabo?
Fuck Kunimatsu’s faggot ass motherfucker was pushing my shit in get fucked you whiny bitch
>>733745256ninja isnt designed around trading hits, its not your best defensive tool at allsamurai gets a ton of stuff that makes it be design, good at trading hits, even outside of gear effects it has passives that give it life drain during arts and total hyper armorfactoring in the very low amount of defense, %DR and lack of sustain, its just not worth it ever
>>733745545jus pary 'im
>parries, deflects, hard bosses boo hoonigga what? I spent the entire game spamming high stance axe triangle, bosses take 20 seconds to beat
>>733745598Apparently I’m not good enough to get the deflect timing correct even though I swear I was doing it right
>>733745570That's neat, and it's fine right now. The issue is that come DLC 1 and NG++ it's very obvious boss damage is going to scale to the point that without investment you are just going to get 1 shot. And with how many 360 Sweeps with vortex hitboxes 3 has (I cannot tell you how many times it has pulled me into a string that I had barely been clipped by). Combined with the trend from ER of bosses never having any downtime to let it be your "turn" along with hyper armor. Ninja will need some some of defensive scalar or it's going to largely be not worth it over just playing a samurai wep, getting 80% DR and hyper armoring through everything yourself with a trickle of life steal to keep you up.
>>733745847at this rate it wont even be worth playing samurai to trade hits with bosses because they'll kill you through fucking 5x-10x EHP scalers if they keep nuking every survival option like thisagain, the nerf to effective health THIS PATCH dropped it to less than 1/5th the value you had pre patch, and it wasnt even mostly todo getting "fixed", that was the smaller of the two nerfs
>>733745378I honestly hope they just make them a weapon type for the dlc. I've been waiting since nioh 1 for them to do that. But I feel like instead they're gonna cheap out and just fill in the spaces for ninja and samurai weapons so we have versions of both for each weapon.
>>733743026twin tails will never look good
>>733744783>>733744990element is pure trash, it gets overwritten by talisman buffs which you NEED for Inari
>weapon skill that can erase any human boss's entire ki bar (if they block all three hits)Wonder if they'll nerf this one.
>got imbue poison on a weapon above 163>it's on tonfaI don't even use tonfa
>>733746027at best, you'll get kanabo skins for axe the way they copped out of making a nagamaki weapon by giving you yamagata's as a reskin for odachi
>>733746826why are you dealing so little damage is this ng+??
>>733736869True samurai, eternally loyal, have been executed for much less.
>>733747009Level 250, post-Shogun, level sync on.I went through the game twice without any attention given to my gear, no build to boost offense or defense in any capacity, just wearing whatever I found.
>>733747009he's using a shit weapon and not applying confusion
>>733747191Not really. People in power tended to understand the value of good subordinates.

I'm trying to beat every boss in the game without taking damage, samurai only, and Blood Edge Demon took me 5 hours. Should only get easier from here right? Demon of Envy definitely won't be impossible
>>733737197Controversial Opinion: In a future patch the ability to add a defeated boss yokai from the Summoning Box to the Eternal Rift is added to the game, because there is plenty of room.Cons: While doing this, the player can no longer equip said boss soul unless they have a duplicate.Pros: While in the Eternal Rift, said boss yokai now acts as another merchant, giving the player a small pool of possible items drawn from players that boss has defeated recently. This pool refreshes often and items potentially acquired from NG+ runs do not apply until the player is applicable.
I want to replay using only Samurai kinda, I used mostly ninja and the game felt too easy, I think because the damage output was just too crazy
>>733736869You spare him because then you are like the Nioh™

>>733750119>are jizo shrines the only way to get the crucible refresh items?Battle scrolls give you some.
Alright, so I'm about two hours into my first Nioh game, the very first one, I can confidently say I think this game actually sucks so far. You die in two hits, can block 2 hits before you get your guardbroken, stunned and die and you can swing your weapon 2 times before you're out of stamina. The inconsistent ki pulse shit seems like a weird gimmick so far.What's worse is your attacks have no impact and the feedback you get from the combat is akin to hitting your enemy with a poolnoodle. I expected much more from TN.I'm led to believe that 250 hours into the game, build-autism will commence, but I feel done before even fighting my first real boss which is insane.The kicker? Huge Ninja Gaiden fag (400+ hours), big Souls fan (600 hours), and I lived & breathed Diablo 2 way back when. An odd feeling. Still, joke is on me since I got the 1 & 2 bundle..(also the real Todo was not even a samurai and his ashigaru-born peasant ass doesn't deserve to be a real clan, fuck that nigga lmao)

>>733750354I started with 2 personally then went back and played 1 after how much I liked 2I would say 2 is very much the finished version of what they were trying with 1If you can handle that you're getting the story slightly out of order I would just start with 2
>>733750354You'll git gud eventually anon. The combat is very very rewarding, you just suck. A lot of us oldfag8s got raped hard during the Alpha and Beta tests [They were that first level and a couple of the next ones]. You'll get there.

>>733750354Nioh 1 is more of a souls ripoff than the other games. Most people trying to comment it on it ste talking out of there assholes, clear % based on achievement and trophy data is very very low far beyond the industry norm of hurdur le nobody beats games. Build autism legit will not happen in nioh 1 because after clearing it you move to nioh 2. FYI in nioh 1 more than the other games you want the ki pulse on dodge passives asap

Game is easy once you have played through an entire game with the mechanic.>What's worse is your attacks have no impact and the feedback you get from the combat is akin to hitting your enemy with a poolnoodle.Did you try all weapons?
I think the main issue with Nioh 3 or really any game with a lot of hitbox weapon variety is that you will find a weapon with a few combos you like and when you try to switch to experience more of the game it will feel 'off' and you'll always long for those favorite combos, rendering the rest of the weapon variety non-usable. Some people don't have this issue apparently as they run new playthroughs with different builds but its very hard to switch.
>>733747891You say that of a culture where ritualistic suicide was not only practiced but perfected. Of course, he wouldn't be executed though. He would be ordered to commit suicide and choose a second, who would cut his neck at the perfect angle and power to not completely behead him because the head shouldn't roll but still allow the head to be easily removed, at a point where he was deemed to have suffered enough but not too much after cutting open his own stomach.
>>733751978>Played throughAnon, I'm a boomer, life is too short to play shit you don't vibe with. My Nioh journey ended in a fishing village. Ninja Gaiden + Souls is pure fucking cancer and I love both.
>>733742941Nothing personnel, kid
Goodness. I'm getting my fucking shit pushed in by this crucible
>>733752212What the fuck are you on about, nice projectionI have no issues using every weapon in the game and even without versatility I'd be switching stances, using every move I possibly can to do cool shit I don't envy you if you truly believe what you just wrote
>>733752609your 80% DR and spamming sword of meditation sir?
>>733742941nioh 3 are especially bad. nioh 1 human bosses might have sucked, but they were reasonable in 2 with the tools you hadhalf of them were axed in 3 so you just get to hope you have enough stamina to mash through their block before they instant transmission out of it and start their frame 0 hyper armor attack that does 3000 damage
>>733750510Found the girly mouthed pussy ass faggot
>>733752643nta but i agree with himi hate how complex things are so i stick to using one weapon with one stance usually
>>733752698it is something you grow out of as you play the game. maybe it comes in the form of having a cool martial art you want to use being locked to another stance, or maybe you just really like the big slam strings on high stance, but you need the dashes on low, so you flip flop back and forthpeople arent born knowing to flux, its something you pick up after playing the game for forever and it becomes muscle memory, it'll be the same with stances, onmyo, ninjutsu, guardian spirit skills, etc
>>733752803>it is something you grow out of as you play the game.i beat the game twice in a row with a high stance only odachi samuraii'm fine as i am >needing dashes>needing to dodgelollmao, even
>>733752698>i hate how complex things are so i stick to using one weapon with one stance usuallyThis is an example of an axe main.
>>733752897yes and i am glad pure fucking grug is a viable way to play the game
>>733752863That sounds mind numbingly boring.

>>733751384>i-it's not ME it's the g-game! You suck at the game so it feels shit. Cope, miserable conquered retard.
>>733753006I dunno, seems like you're coping about someone not liking your game. Natural insecurity, I get it.
>>733752670But I don't even have sword of meditation set...
>>733753096Nah. Just a reasonable judgement. You either posted because you want advice or you want a fight. You've been given both. Go fuck off back to Arc Raiders or whatever faggot. Nobody needs you here.

>>733736869i killed the uncle in ghost of tsushima and i actually liked him, no way am i letting this little bitch live
>>733750354Nioh 1's just a rough game during the learning curveYou haven't drilled ki-pulsing into your muscle memory yet, you don't know which ninjutsu or onmyo are good, and you probably are still using a combination of medium/light armor because other games have taught you that light armor >>>>> heavy armor when in Nioh the reverse is for learning due to taking two shots off the tableMost of Nioh 1's limited enemy movelist is backed by being extremely punishing to light armor; there's many legitimate one shots in light armor. It's also why I recommend people just go to 2 first. Because 2 has an extremely well balanced difficulty curve compared to 1 where Derrick, Yoki, Onryoki, ninja, and tengu will shit on you despite some of them having like 1-3 regular attacks in total.
>>733753201Make me.
I really want to know why they balanced Kunimatsu to be harder than everything else. Was it just a happy accident that tn didn't intend?
>You can mid-air groundfire on downed enemiesKINOINO
I really want to know why they balanced Masakage to be harder than everything else. Was it just a happy accident that tn didn't intend?
>>733750917That’s true In nioh 2 and 3. Not nioh 1
>>733750354haven't played it since release but i do remember early game being rough. had to grind levels for a while before i felt like i could "really" start the game. and even then, i played both games pretty slow, barely ever attempting to fight more than one enemy at once unless they were the basic non-yokai dudesfor what it's worth, nioh 3 is waaaay easier, with the ninja mode you can basically just spam attacks constantly and jump around because you use so little ki
>>733753635They wanted everyone to grind for 8 elixirs early
>>733753459I appreciate the words, but I don't partiularly care about learning curves. My progress is not gated by anything except my own boredom. I just think the gameplay is deeply underwhelming and the game overall from my limited time is not fun.Me bringing up dying in 2 hits and having a shitty stam system is just me questioning the balance of this game. Ninja Gaiden had a vision, while this is just slop. I might fight an actual boss tomorrow and make a decision, but mentally I'm done with Nioh.>>733753540Wait a goddamn minute....you're not me!

>>733754027>just learn ki pulseNo, I refuse.
>>733742646its useless unless youre using it for farming mobs, it refunds spirit force when the guardian skill kills themif you want less spirit force consumption and faster spirit force charge on martial arts pick minamoto
Bwos I fear they're gonna make the endgame difficult like Wo LongNioh has always been an easy game to effortlessly stomp content in but they're trying to balance it and if not for +15 gear it would be possible to die on mere NG+pic unrelated
>>733754289then you probably won't have fun since it's the core mechanic of the game
>>733754289you literally just press one button when you see a flash, or after x amount of secondsyou bitch and moan about lack of stamina but the reason you lack stamina is because you ain't ki pulsingit's not an optional mechanic, you have to learn how to do it or you will get fucked, as you are experience
>>733754707Anon, I'm done with Nioh.
>>733754758>refuse to engage with the games mechanics>what the fuck this game is shitok retard
>>733754758then stop crying about how the game isn't fun because you refuse to learn how to play it
>>733754289>>733754758Imagine getting filtered by mechanic that even retarded japanese women on yt can do effortlessly, couldn't be me.
>>733754727>you bitch and moan about lack of stamina but the reason you lack stamina is because you ain't ki pulsingThis is just nonsense, ki pulse doesn't even solve anything from my observation. You finish an attack, wait a full second and if you time it right you get 25% of your stamina back. This inherently doesn't give me more of it, it just shortens the recovery window.But it genuinely does not matter, because I'm simply done with the game.
>733754920(you)
>>733754958>This inherently doesn't give me more of it, it just shortens the recovery window.as an exampleinstead of having your ki bar being at 0 and getting fucked because you can't dodge...you now have 25% of your ki and CAN dodge if you can't tell that this is a good thing you are beyond help
At the first sign of adversity, anon capitulates and blames everything but himself. Truly embarrassing behavior
>>733754920>>733755029 forgot to quote you sorry im trans if that matters
>>733754758ok bye, enjoy The Duskbloods on the Switch 2
>>733754027>just learn how to ki pulse,Gonna be real, I don't know what the problem is, you get so strong so fast I don't remember the last time even did a Ki pulse. You get auto-pulse on dodge fairly early too, I even think that shit was in the demo.
>>733735508give it straight to me niohchads, is elemental and confusion status buildup useless in ng+2 and above? since im assuming that most mini and main bosses will have higher elemental resistances than base.
>>733755172no, confusion actually becomes more and more mandatory the higher the NG cycle
>>733748123>disgraced his honor and force him to live in shameSpare him, it is!
>>733755154pulse on dodge is for weenies who don't know how to flux
>>733744996No one's ever tried to just stomp him?
>>733754958>This inherently doesn't give me more of itAttacks consume a lot of stamina, but only a fraction is truly consumed right away with upwards of 90% of that Ki in a potential state in which you can recover it in an instant with a properly timed Ki pulse. If you don't Ki Pulse, you lose all of it and naturally recovering it takes far longer. You will be very out of juice most of the time. It may come off as an unnecessary extra step, but a Pulse is very much an opportunity and pacing mechanic. If you overextend and dodge/guard/get hit, that Ki will be lost. If you mash and get trigger happy, you won't Ki pulse at the right moment and lose all of the Ki anyway.
>>733755030>you can now dodgeYou mean after the 1 whole second has passed? At that point you're already dead. Like have you even played Nioh? What you said would make sense if ki pulse timing was connected to your weapon swing, but its not, the thing starts 1 second after you're no longer attacking.You might actually be retarded...Have fun screaming into the void either way, because your retardation just filter'd me.
>>733749649Sell me on the other clans.
>>733735508It was the right thing To do
>>733755030i'm not that anon but using ki pulse after every attack gets kind of annoying, even when it's become instinctual I'd prefer if it wasn't in these games but that's just me
>>733755154You're probably already doing it by reflex. At some point Ki pulse becomes second nature.
>>733755430>Attacks consume a lot of stamina, but only a fraction is truly consumed right away with upwards of 90% of that Ki in a potential state in which you can recover itI don't know what you're talking about, but it's certainly not Nioh 1.
>cheese shit like todo and damage reduction on attack guttedOH NO NO NO
>>733754018Is this show worth watching?
>>733755558yes
I haven't perfect fluxed since midway Nioh 2
>>733755541regen didn't and stacking all 3 was the way to go for tankiness anyway
>Played through the entirety of the bakumatsu map thinking the game just ran like shit on in that time period not realizing the game reset my upscaler to Xess instead of DLSSI am retarded
>>733755473I think Ninja has better concepts for Ki recovery. Your Mist afterimages and a properly timed Evade recovering Ki are a lot more flexible and interactive with the enemy, compared to the Samurai where the Pulse is for the most part a mechanic that only involves the player character.
>>733755456you can get 6% extra backstab damage while at critical healthor 4 more luckthose are the bonuses for other clans, that's why people chose todo, because it actually did something
Noooo my shinsengumi clan got nerfed to hell
>>733755558I watched it for she
>>733755689regen doesn't stack. life leech talisman alone is 10x more powerful than any kind of regen
>>733755662This guy, fucking hell.
>>733735508heh, sucks to suck I beat the game yesterdayhow bad did they nerf us, Todo bros?
>>733755456The rest of them are mix and matchBow build needs bonuses from two different clansYou can take half of red armors bonus and put it on something elseReally just read that shit and decide if you want to add it to a build.
>>733755860retardkato had 20% damage reduction when attacking, that was huge (it's 15 now, still good)4 luck? gamo is like 25, not great i know but still every little helps when grindinguesegi iirc has like a 500 hp on melee kill that's pretty nicethere's others that increase martial arts damage by like 15%people only chose todo because it was bugged and doubled their hp and they were shitters who needed a crutch
>>733756231its not longer a crutch for badplayers/ninja
The thong loincloth on female takechiyo is good
>>733756263I always find it strange that people will accuse others of being bad for using tools when the entire series has always been about cheesing the enemies harder than they can cheese you>shadowstitches boss then spams spells in its faceheh, nothing personnel... ayakashi
>>733756731I recently got this and its so deliciously scummy. Can't wait to get more sets with unlimited ninjutsu.
>>733756926I got one with that at like level 40 and used it for the entire game lmao, such a good ninjutsu
>>733736869Hiruko poisons those with ambitions, he basically consented to be possessed. Nevertheless, I've spared worse criminals in this same game, this dumbass barely started to be AMBITIOUS
>>733755327I dont mind body double plots
>>733757509https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PLFVGwGQcB0
Do Hide and William not show up at all? It feels weird.
>>733757774Willy pops up briefly and there are some oblique references to Hiddy (plus you can see their Interim across the way)
>>733754018tch... typical WMAF propaganda show. whyte boys need to fuck off
>>733757892de yt boy kinda suffers a lot in this show actually
>>733757774they just added an update today where hiddy appears as a summon
>>733757774William is busy fucking his wife and fish wife(plural)
>>733755558Yes, absolutely
playing this game on 30fps is suffering. Maybe when I upgrade my rig in 2036 I'll give it a positive review
>>733757774https://youtube.com/shorts/2VjAFxiYn-o?si=0aYBlefcJCsBLktD
>>733757774Aside from the "present day" none of their timelines really intersect. Supposedly hide is still probably doing the ageless demon hunter thing and last I checked william still ages like a normal person so he's probably a grandpa by now
what about his kid at the end of 1
>>733756058yes it does, and stacking it WITH defense is the way to go and always has been
Why does every boss go apeshit at 20% health
>>733756036I enjoyed the part when Wirriam complemented her tea pouring skill
>>733759148https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oIg5Kf_g2A4everyone loves wirriam-san
>>733758734>william still ages like a normal personRise of the Ronin.
>>733758734>ages like a normal person so he's probably a grandpa by nownope, he didnt age from 1 to 2, and there are 3 legends about mermaids (mumei's and william's guardian spirit) that prevent aging mind you, william's son inherited the rabbit instead of saorise
Is Todo still good? I just got to the 2nd time period and unlocked clans, so I haven't experienced the prenerf/bugged/whatever version. Todo stood out as the obvious choice because I'm mainly using cestus and other weapons that scale off stamina. Kato also seems decent.
>>733759072only final boss has more than 2 hp-based phases (fire, ice, BLOOD, lightning)
So, Rise of the Ronin is in the same universe? I think I played the demo years back and didn't like it. I've never played a Ninja Gaiden game
>>733759392maybe, another timeline innit
>>733759425Gotta remember that Nioh 3's Bakumatsu era gets erased at the end, so it might not actually be a different timeline.
>>733759313It used to like 2.5x your health, now it's just a nice little bonus on top for stamina builds.
it's insanely offensive to not have wirriam in this>b-but DLCnot good enough
wirriam is a ladykiller
>>733760146>offensiveWhat are you, a woman?
>>733760378they disrespected him
>>733745725>guy who brags about playing the game as little as possiblewhat causes this malfunction?
>>733760564Every other character tongue bathes himCalm yo sensitive ass down
>>733760626nioh without william isn't nioh
whens it gonna be on sale sisters..i bought digimon...
>try to shut down game>get the usual error message>entire computer suddenly restarts itselfWell that's not good
>>733760862I swear the reason the game crashes when you exit is because it tries saving the game and gets interrupted.
how well this run
>>733754694It is inevitableYou have infinite chain deflect, infinite light speed evade that let you rush behind any boss's back in half a secondYou have literally the most powerful defensive capability in all Soulslike games.At this point they HAVE to make bullshit bosses that have a 1 second attack window before starting their perfect tracking hyper armor 15 swings in a row attack, otherwise it will be a cake walk. Yokai bosses especially are just braindead easy if all they do is swing. That's why they gave the last demon nukes and tornado bombs that sucks you in, they NEED non-conventional mechanics at this point.
>>733760995gonna suck when general of ruin is the only set worth running because there are no viable playstyles other than deflecting because niggers keep getting fun shit nerfed in a single player offline rpgi do not expect onmyo builds to last for another weekget whatever missions you want done now because they are going to get 1000x worse in the very short term future
>>733735508Can I speed through the game to get to the heian era?
>>733751128>TLDR waiting for dlc for shuten + iburaki for his kanabo skinIf the mechanics were like Nioh 1 it would happen, but all bosses are built to be damage sponges so it won't happen. Also, the dark realm shit would get annoying from two yokai bosses at the same time.
>>733760862another great addition added thanks to TN vibecoding lol
>>733761140it'd just be like mez/gozuki fights and one of them (shuten) would be in charge of dark realm and ibaraki would just put puddles downbut yeah realistically its not gonna happen
>>733760862This game is really coded like dogshit.>>733761140Well, DLC and particularly free DLC missions tend to involve unimaginable builshit, so who knows? Maybe they will add it.
>>733761207It's a shame because I loved the dual bosses in the Abyss. I can't stress enough how much I prefer Nioh 1 over the sequels because there is nothing like it, especially Floor 999 when you're with two other players, fighting Date Masamune, Sanada Yukimura, and Mysterious Samurai at the same time. That was special.
Nioh 3 is seriously lacking in stylish kimonos like Okatsus outfit.
>>733760978get ur life together before worrying about your games paki
>>733761089the fuck are you talking about? You can deflect without any dedicated set and still find ways to have infinite Ki>do not expect onmyo builds to last for another weekwhy? Ninjutsu build still output more constant nukes and still have reliable way to inflict Confusion. Omnyo "build" is barely a thing until the end of the game anyway.I think they care more about nerfing things that are too braindead like the defensive effects, they rarely nerf the offensive mechanics unless they seemingly bugged
>>733761537if you never get to attack, general of ruin will be the only way to deal (ki) damage
>>733761501wdym? there is fashionable kimonos, on yokai girls
>>733761753Maybe he means for the player.
>>733761435lets be honest the way you fight this is by popping every buff before and instakilling 2 of them in the 5 second duration you have
Have they fixed the player not having the full 360 degrees of movement on the PC version yet?
>>733761701there will always be a way to deal Ki damage>Samurai do hyper armor attack with cum meter, fill it by deflecting>there is a skill that allow you to ki pulse after guarding, which can probably lead to Frost Moon>Omnyo have the elemental familiar, and the spell that does Ki explosion when Ki pulsing>Ninja is already too fast, It's not possible to not have a window because of KunaiAll of these move don't even need normal attack btw, after NG you have enough mechanics to fill the meters without touching basic attacks
>From an early age Iemitsu practiced the shūdō tradition. However, in 1620, he had a falling out with his homosexual lover, Sakabe Gozaemon, a childhood friend and retainer, aged twenty-one, and murdered him as they shared a bathtub.No wonder we never got to smooch Himiko, Takechiyo is literally gay
the fuck was her problem
Tell me Anon, why is samurai so much more fun than ninja?
>>733762052Takechiyo sure got a historical upgrade in this game
>>733761971>lets be honest the way you fight this is by popping every buff before and instakilling 2 of them in the 5 second duration you haveYou can do that, but you don't have to. One shotting bosses is a choice.
>>733762052If my Takechiyo is a woman, does it mean she is a massive psycho slut antichrist?
>>733762121>slaughter yokai by the hundreds to get some loot>haha total yokai DEATH>wait wtf why is this yokai lady trying to beat my ass?
>>733762045>cum meterif your cum has a blue-ish tint, i strongly recommend seeing a doctor
>>733762052This nigga lookin' SAWAYAKA, this nigga lookin' JITTORI, he's got mizuame in his jar, he's light on his geta, he's a Iil bit fruity, he plays for the ronin, he does nihon buyo in the courtyard, this nigga kabuki, this nigga makes matcha, this nigga gonna coordinate yo tsuka wit yo saya and that shit gonna impress nobunaga! This nigga lifts kimonos, this nigga on the down low, this nigga be a origami trader, this nigga does ikebana, this nigga packs chocolate mochi, he's a friend of Lady Kasuga, he feels the love that dare not speak Its name, he loves odori, he's of the Himiko sisterhood, he indulges in the Joseon vice, he has an antipathic sexual Instinct, he's fluent in japanese polari, his favorite literature is The Tale of Genji, he's on the wrong jinrikisha, he bats for the secret emperor, he's temperamental, he's 'one of them if you catch my drift.
>>733760862Oh, everyone else also getting that error message when quiting the game? Good to know it's not just me and it's just TN and their shit coding.
>>733762045Semen meter attacks will lose in trades because you take too much ki damage. Frost moon is very unsafe. Ninja dodge + ninjutsu spam will be a viable alternative to deflectslop but just as boring. Omnyo... we'll see, but I don't expect it to last in forced boss rushes à la depths.
>>733762437I'm running on the theory that they're gonna just sweep it all under the rug with all the bad shit happening because kunimatsu somehow gets possessed again
7.8% of players on Steam have all the trophies, game must be easy.
Help! Cestus is the only weapon that I like so far, but I really want to mix things up.
can someone post the fromsoft vs nioh controls gigachad meme
>>733764217Spear and 1kat are kino.
>>733763428>Semen meteryour semen has a blue-ish tint?
>>733757705I don't know how this is relevant, but thanks for reminding me of Satie. Haven't listened in a long time.
>>733735508I was already heavy stam so I went from 5k hp to 3.9k still feel like a giga tank
Why do I never hear anyone talk about either of the 2kat?
>>733736927>>733742641>>733749205>>733757509Righteously said, bros. I need to fulfill my destiny as Shinto Jesus. The game forced me to spare some real villains, this is the first time I could choose to spare one.
>>733766347Because it's mid, it's not good, it's not bad, it's not specifically technical, but it's not braindead either. It's just kind of nothing.
>>733766347ninja 2kat is the most fun weapon in the game imo
>>733766326Interesting how enemies don't suffer fall damage. Just another bullshit feature of Team Ninja games.
>>733766409well yes, you need to spare yoritomo because he is your ancestor (tokugawa are descendant from him and he has your summon box) hiruko does the otakumaru thing and just seethes so hard he never dies anyway, Takeda pretty much chills the fuck out after his surrender anyway
>>733764089Everything is doable within the first NG, so yes trophy hunting has gotten easier. I do miss the "Against all coomers" on NG+ boss rush mission
>>733736869Well he's not innocent. Big H was amplifying his negative emotions but they were there in the first place and someone has to take responsibility for this shit. Granted he did show in his more lucid moments that he's aware that he's gone too far and he didn't want it to go this way, also we're like 0/3 for actually killing people corrupted by big H so I gave him the pass. Kinda hits the theme of those 3 too, sparing someone after blunting their misguided ambition, out of brotherly affection and familial ties, and with the honest well-placed hope that they can redeem themselves
>>733735508So does anyone have a list of clan positions? I'm just trying figure out when I can fucking leave and choose a new one.
I started Nioh 2 again after platinuming 3. I actually learned how to flux in 3, but I can't do it as often at all in 2. Is the window tighter in 2?
>>733736869Considering who you let live throughout the game, you come across as a real piece of shit if the one person you DO kill is your own brother. Plus I like him becoming your yokai slaying shadow
>>733767016idk its easy for me in all 3 games
>>733767016I think it's because it feels way more rewarding to master in 3 due to martial arts proficiencyyou get a massive boost in dmg, and survivability if you can chain together multiple martial art combos consistently plus it just looks good and sounds amazing as you do it.
>>733767147Isn't he your shadow in the public eye as well? IIRC the stinger at the end has him chastising you for not showing up to do your court duties
>>733767220probably both, takechiyo LOVES drawing and finds excuses to do it
>>733767220They only explicitly show him changing into your ninja mode, the admonishment comes from Takechiyo drawing invisible ghost animals like an autist.

>>733767631>same
>>733766946I’ve heard that 30k glory is the max upgrade level (when you can safely move on) and 60k is the top rank title.
>>733766946when the bonus text is green
why do they pretend that takechiyo has any artistic ability when he draws like a preschooler
>>733768814Who's going to tell the shogun that his drawings suck?
>>733768458okay, but you've "heard" that. can you prove it?
>>733766347this guy >>733766483 is a retarded faggot. ignore him.there's plenty of talk about 2kat btw. you're just avoiding it
>>733766347I need the Deflect Counter on every other weapon. It's so good.The weapon is kinda God of Wind spam tho. Could use a Heavy>Light combo but it only has Light>Heavy for some reason.
>>733759345>blood is the easiest because he keeps doing burst counterable attacks and plain physical damage while every other phase has a gazillion AOEs that take away three quarters of your health
>>733769039I’m not at 60k yet myself, But the effects haven’t changed in a bit since it went green. Still working though ranks myself but it does seem to stop upgrading the effect at a point.
>>733769239ye that's the one fault, spinning dragon and cherry blossom feels kinda useless with arts proficiency since you gotta light attack to start them
>>733768814Have you seen traditional japanese artwork? Takechiyo is like a super-artist compared to that.
>>733769684their landscapes and animals look good but something goes horribly wrong when they try to draw people.
>new patch>mods broken>game crashes on startup even without any modsfuck my life
>>733735508the most nortubel clan ever
>>733769805don't know about all mods, but if you're using the yumia.exe thingy, you need to run it again after every update
>>733741815Bloodedge is harder.
>>733741815Do the patterns of her fire attack form some sort of a kanji? They seem to be very deliberate.
>>733735508Loving this game but after 80 hours I'm starting to feel burned out. Especially since you can't respawn bosses at golden chests in ng+. Not being able to fight open field bosses multiple times is a bummer. Now have the urge to go back and replay the rest of the series or some of the other nioh likes like wo long johnson
>>733769845I know, it didn't work. So I just deleted the entire game folder and reinstalling now
>>733769845>>733769805Turns out it was the unlimited transmog mod, there's an update for it now.
If I have attributes on my samurai gear like ninjutsu damage up will that carry over to my ninja? Same say if I have bow skills on my samurai but have bow equipped on my ninja?
>>733770357>Turns out it was the unlimited transmog mod, there's an update for it now.don't really need that one anymore, cross style transmog was added in the latest patch
>>733768814>why do they pretend that takechiyo has any artistic ability when he draws like a preschoolerBecause story.
>>733770374wish they also make katanas unlimited too, i don't really like the curved ones for samurai.
>>733770374the mod lets you cross-transmog weapons too, so it offers a tad more freedom
>>733770448he isnt a musashi, but thats the level of painting POST biggest civil war the country will ever have.
>>733770570oh, i might add it back in then
>>733770448I think the painting thing was heavily underutilised. Would have been cool to have spots in some places where you can set up and get a painting cutscene and get a painting to look at like in that one ghost quest.
mfw no one will notice all the new gear physics because the people who COULd notice it are all playing nude probably why its taking awhile for them to port all the old models
>>733745570Yeah. Even one passive skill to accommodate trading hits where you can't get staggered during Arts Proficiency combo.
>just beat itMan that final gauntlet was ass. Just tedium.
didnt realize the game came out lolanyway whats the consensus? out of nioh 1, 2, and wo schlong, where does it rank?
>>733771728waiting 1 year later for full judge.
>>733735508>balance patch in a single player game
>>733771728Better base game compared to both previous games, still somewhat worse than a fully patched Nioh 2 with DLCs. A great game but with the worst story out of 3, which doesn't matter much.
>>733770448I miss Hiddy. Spirit box is gay, style switching is turbo gay and the new transformation is faggy.
>>733771728Nioh 2 is better.
>>733771728Downgrade from Nioh 2.
>>733771851>>733771825>>733771787can I parry things to death?
>>733771880yes but it's not the main defensive tactic so it's harder than in Wo Long. it's strong and makes a cool noise tho. good luck.https://files.catbox.moe/zrnimn.mp4
>>733771943based, too bad it looks like I missed playing the game with /v/ this time around, this is the first nioh 3 thread i see in the couple past days
>>733770568shit taste tbdesu
>>733772089we've had daily threads since the demo came out, anon
>>733744996how has this guy not been arrested yet, he's been doing this shit for like 3 yearsyou can see how much distress he causes people
>>733746025I'm inclined to agree with this. Even through 90% damage reduction on attack I was getting chunked down by enemies
i swear to fucking god the drop rate for kaikunigo is bugged
>>733772089that's odd. we've have 1 thread up most of the time every day since launch. bad luck.
what gender is takechiyo canonically?
>>733762045There's a ninja dodge skill that summons a Scampuss
>>733772253
Lmao. Guess his forgiveness runs out as soon as he becomes Shogun.
>>733772303hm... so takechiyo was either a japanese dude or an american woman
>>733772334they deserve it for trying to turn the population against its own. I hope we get some fights with some godfearers like maria but with heavy europ armor and whore outfit spies
>>733772334gigabased nationalist chad
>>733772461oh, was it the "heathens aren't human" kind of christians? or is that a different period?
>>733772548if you thought the historical protestant christian william adams wasand then you remember what NIOH william is.
>>733772345He was a Japanese dude and he hated Christcucks. But he also fuck men and had a wife and many side bitches.
>>733772617
>>733772461The funny thing is that the Amakusa rebellion happened because the local daimyo was such a greedy bloodthirsty asshole that even the shogunate ended up having to execute him without even giving him the dignity of taking his own life.
>>733772253Both canonically and historically, Takechiyo is male. You can check the Character Directory in Eternal Rift. also, women could not hold the title of Shogun. So, a female Takechiyo serving as Shogun makes no sense, both historically and from the game’s storyline perspective.
>>733772638Based historical Takechiyo. My Takechiyo is having a hot lesbian sex with Himiko
>>733772776a female shogun is too much but yokais are totally real
>>733772860Hey, that's not me saying that, the game did. I know it’s a work of fiction, but the game literally depicted Takechiyo as male. And the game never showed a female shogun, so it’s highly possible that Team Ninja is keeping this part historically accurate.
>>733772860Yes. That's how the game settings puts it. That said considering femchiyo is a demon slaying monster who slaughtered her way through time, it might be hard to find people willing to stand in the way of her becoming shogun.
for the record, the only woman who had the power of shogun had the power in everything but an official title was this guy's wife, the first shogun.
>>733755043He is the conquered
>>733772860>a female shogun is too much but yokais are totally realShogun symbolizes hierarchy, and in feudal Japan you were born into your caste, including gender. This is because your role in life required duties for you to fulfill, and as we all know, women are physically weaker than men due to sexual dimorphism.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexual_dimorphism
>>733764328This is my SAM setup, can confirm.
>>733770862Ive had enough of that gay slop in ghost of yotei, people play nioh to kill demons and japs with dope combat not to paint
>>733774118it's not that different from shooting ferrets, chasing scampi, or finding Jizo heads, is it?
You know I REALLY don't like how I have to run through an entire mission + a crucible to get to human Takeda Shingen to farm him. Why isn't literally every boss in a battle scroll? What is the deal with resetting shrines when I go into a battle scroll I've already done. If there's an option of level scaling why isn't there an option for free travel to shrines??
>>733774473previous niohs are the same way. not ever boss had a short mission where you could fight them right away.
>>733774473yokai takeda also drops the smith scrolls
>>733774564>>733774473also, you could do the 4 heavenly kings mission to farm him as well.
>>733774574>>733774606Cheers anons. I'm on it.
>>733774473>Takeda Shingenhow dare he have a cool glaive we can't get?
>>733774704>>733774704
>>733774473Bring out the Nioh 2 techQuit to title screen if you don't get the recipe you want and retry the fight after you load back in.
>>733774779>switchglaiveah, what a shame. never even considered that.
>>733774835Nioh special, apart from mumei, pretty much ALL glaive users are onestancechumps
Would Hide and Ibaraki Doji get along really well because Hide is part demon, or would they hate each other because Ibaraki Doji is furious at yokai being killed?Her passion and wish to get justice for her kind is cute by the way
>>733774972fuckigng NOhide litterally kills her adoptive dad twice too.
>>733775026Maybe that was a mistake on Hide's part, they should have just let Shouten Doji alone for a bit, who knows he may have just ended up being a chill dude.
>>733774972She'd probably hate him even more for being a traitor to his kind
>>733774972do you think she'd get embarrassed when you subdue her and go for a kiss?
>>733774225Chasing the cats is also annoying, the other stuff is fast enough to not be tedious (for me atleast).
>>733775156He was parched and he wanted a drink, that's all he wanted. Hide was like "Fuck your drink. Eat steel instead."
>>733774972She would absolutely despise him because he's a traitor who gets along with humans. Otakemaru himself yells "WHY ARE YOU ON THE HUMAN SIDE" during the last fight as Nightmare Bringer.
>>733775619>"WHY ARE YOU ON THE HUMAN SIDE"because mom said so
>>733774473you do realize you can just quit to the main menu after killing him if he doesn't drop anything good, right?
remember kids, yokai are SCUM and deserve to be KILLED even yokai say to do that.
idk, i still think>murder hobo half yokaiis a much cooler protagonist than>nepo baby who likes painting
>>733775976you'll change your mind after he becomes GET THE FUCK OUTTA MY COUNTRY NATIONALIST MAXXING
>>733775976Takechiyo may be a rich kid who got an insane education, but he did travel across several eras absolutely filled with danger, especially the fucking postapoc Bakumatsu full to the brim with 19th century weaponry.
>>733775507He attacked us the first time and the second time he was literally in the middle of a rampage killing countless people and his arena is the burnt out husk of a town that he happened toSome Yokai are just assholes for the love of the game
>>733775923kek nice pic
Wo Long mogs Nioh 3 so hard it ain't even funny>Only ~10k less peak players despite being free on Gamepass day 1 (would have had much more peak players if it wasn't)>Probably much smaller development budget - Nioh 3 credits are 12 minutes long, Wo Long's are 5 minutes, which is shorter than Expedition 33>Chad mission-based structure vs soicuck virgin open world slopWo Long did much more with much less budget and Nioh 3 flopped hard. They should have made Wo Long 2 instead.
>>733776671you're forgetting how much shit is recycled in nioh3, it's ridiculous
>>733776671Nigga, 70% of those Wo Schlong players were Chinese. The game is shit, let it go.
>>733776671No need to fret, Long Johnson. Team Ninja currently only have one big game announced in development, and that's Dead or Alive which is years away and is not made by the same team as the action games. Fatal Frame was recently finished and Nioh 3 DLC probably doesn't take the full team, so they are almost certainly early at work on their next big action game now. It's safe to assume it will be Wo Longer 2.
>>733776869Almost 50% of Nioh 3 players are Chinese. What's your point?
>>733775976The protag is a bit of a non-entity, but for a weird adventure with time travel shenanigans, Takechiyo's story is quite boring. Billy and Hiddy got cooler stories, so they feel cooler.
There's no way they'll do a christian DLC, right? That would be too cool/funny.
>>733776671Stop giving Wo Long enjoyers a bad name, asshole.I loved Nioh 3 and I hope they do Wo Long 2 next cause Wo Long, after all the updates and DLCs, was great fun.
>>733777182I need to give that game another chance. I only remember being confused by the blue and orange bars.
>>733776671The literal first boss in wo long is better than any boss in the nioh series
>>733777261>normal attacks and deflects generate spirit>using heavy attacks, spells, martial arts, dodging and blocking spends spirit>spirit can be positive and negative>you can go into negative spirit but if you get hit at max negative spirit, it ki breaks you>you can go into positive spirit to empower your martial arts and heavy attacks, some weapons allow you to store up to two positive spirit containers>the entire game plan is built around gaining and spending spirit and trying to avoid going into negative because it opens you up for dangerIt's a very easy to understand but also incredibly well though out system.

>>733767631Based
>>733772776>So, a female Takechiyo serving as Shogun makes no senseWhy do you think Kunimatsu throws a fit
>>733772776>You can check the Character Directory in Eternal RiftThe gender in that changes dependent on what gender your character is.
>>733748761this but instead of a shop it's a sex scene
>>733748761that's one elaborate post just for you to say you want to jerk off to your yokai, anon
>>733766626they do, you retard
>>733760862AMD? I found a forum post about it having to do with your graphics drivers having their timeout disabled, changed a number in Regedit and now it at least just crashes the game instead of freezing my entire PC.
>>733748761I just want to put the spirits in yoaki in there. We could do it to the huts, we should be able to do it here.
>>733777562Aw fug, I forgot how to pronounce his name.
>>733777830Because he was glazed by his parents but Ieyasu cockblocked him because Takechiyo is older and he pissed him off.>>733777938The new patch 1.03.03 changed a shit load of text. It used to refer to Takechiyo as he/him, but now Takechiyo is referred to as they/them. And no, it doesn’t change depending on the gender or body type you choose. This is literally the same thing as Nioh 2, anon.
MFW I remember Nioh 1 had PvP
>>733779649This isn't the same thing as Nioh 2 at all because it was one of the things I checkedAnd it's still thereShe/her all over the placeIt's in the mirror for cutscene summaries tooThis is specifically a correction to the phrase that the character directory says this regardless of the PC's """""""body type"""""""" choiceYou see he/him because you're playing a guy.
>>733778768>they do, you retardThen explain why the gaki didn't receive damage when it landed.
>>733780381NTA, it wasn't a normal fall it was some kind of bugged knockback animation
Got the Takeda Shingen smithing texts, not gonna use the armor after trying it though.
>>733780495That's the Tiger of Kai isn't it? I thought the Spirit Force bonus (wind damage) would be decent but it's actually pretty ass
What does Spirit Force even do?
>>733780757Spirit force is the same as anima in Nioh 2. Is just your bar for using the guardian spirit parry/summoning skill. I have it high enough that I can parry 4x in a row if I want too.
>>733780220I looked into it and i think the confusion came from the fact that the first paragraph is depicted Takechiyo as They/Them. Also in the description of Striking Retribution, Kunimatsu's sword. It also depicted Takechiyo as They/Them. I don't know why they did this. Maybe translators had a stroke and forgot to change all of them.
Lmao they nerfed damage taken while attacking again? It went from 81 to 70 to 66 in 2 days
>>733774972Hide is an autistic yoaki slayer
>>733781317Man I should have gotten a job as a translatorThat shit must be the easiest gig in existence
>>733781869if you can fake speaking jp long enough to convince the foreign team then yeah you can write literally whatever you wantyou just have to shove tranny shit in every few weeks to keep the western publisher happy
Bros I can't keep keep chilling in the Eternal Rift and spamming T4HK and 3oni, please I need something else to do in this game... I don't want to play anything else but there isn't even a bloodedge up... There is literally no endgame. If I join a coop the shitter host just gets himself killed by being grabbed and I gain nothing.Also what's the deal with this piece of untextured tree? It's been like this since the demo. Is TN trying to tell me something?
>>733782157Game seems really anemic compared to 1/2. Boss count is pretty slim by comparison. A lot of stuff just isn't there.
>>733782343Anons have said N1 and 2 were like this on release, but I played both as the complete edition so I can't really comment. I just know that the game invited me to do NG+, and by the end of it I feel very overturned. Maybe it's because I put 30 hours into the demo and experimented with all the weapons. I don't feel burnt out, I just want tougher things to kill. The scaling isn't enough. For reference I'm playing a "normal" ki damage build and not something weird like nude onmyo, elemental spam, or ungabunga and I'm Still breezing through it all (I stopped leveling at 206, which is under a lot of the later missions.)
>>733782635they're wrong, N2 was a veritable Yokai zoo on launch. It had a lot of great bosses and enemy variety.1 was a bit lacking on yokai variety admittedly
>>7337826352 had way more Yokai in the base game. Like half the Yokai from base 2 just aren't there. Nearly everything from the DLC is absent except the bird guy.The absence of the karate bird in the final dlc pissed me off. I wanted to fuck that thing up with the increased potential in 3.
>>733782690revisionist historyso brazen too.just wait until the fucking DLC, jesus christ how many times do people have to say to wait for DLC. of fucking course the game isnt on the same level as NG+4/dlc/depths for previous game, its only just launched
>>733774972hiddy killed demons for far less>wow a big ferret, lmao ima kill it
>>733782829>2 had way more Yokai in the base gameNo it didn'tNot counting non hostile enemies (Chijiko, Sudama, Kodama) Nioh 3 has 63 Yokai. This is excluding human turned Yokai like Shingen.Nioh 2's base game had 49 YokaiI swear to fuck I don't know what people are smoking.
>>733783389People never played base nioh 1 or 2. It's little wonder as to why they think Nioh 3 is so barebones when they're comparing it to the other games with all the dlc
>>733768814FUCK YOU CHIYO HAS CUTE ART
>>733783389>63 yokai in Nioh 3>49 yokai in Nioh 2Yet people keep telling me that these games have only 5 enemies
>>733783389>>733784003people CANNOT separate older nioh games with DLC from their launch statesnioh 1 on launch DID NOT HAVE ODACHIsimilarly, nioh 2 on launch DID NOT HAVE CESTUSwe are virtually guaranteed to not yet have the weapon that fully utilizes and pushes the combat mechanics to their fullest extent yet, same with bosses and enemies
>>733782635Start a level 1 run. I found myself engaging with mechanics more and actaully having to think about my omnyo skills for bosses since you only have a slot for one talisman and summon
>>733783389The issue is with Jailer Oni, these niggers are everywhere and in great numbers so you feel like you're only fighting them, it ruin the whole experience.
>>733784003>>49 yokai in Nioh 2How many of those are skelly, yoki, and oni variants?
I'm forcing myself to use certain weapons to finish the weapon kills title grind, and I'm on my last ninja one with the Split Staff.Why does this weapon eat a lot of your ki even though it doesn't exactly do big damage like the axe or odachi? Feels like this weapon doesn't really belong on the ninja side with how ki hungry it is compared to the other ninja weapons where you can spam their moves in multiple succession without running out of ki so fast.
Best armor set for Sam 1kat? I feel like my build is bad because I die quickly to bosses and feel like I’m not doing enough damage. My defense is like 980, health 2.3k and main weapon attack is also like 980. Is it just because I’m not deflecting enough? Also bosses dodge back out of my range all the fucking time.
>>733784628i used mostly split staff during my normal playthrough and am working my way top down to finish titles as wellninkat is so fucking dogshit and boring to play, and feels more ki hungry than splitstaff and hatchetssplitstaff main moves are changing ways, ebb and flow, and heron kick
>>733782635Level sync seems to rubber band your ass for it's scaling.I found that the higher level I got the harder it crunched me down enough to get two tappedBut really I've found most of my fun in Bakumatsu with an unoptomized buildI found >>733752609To be especially funnybecause randomly I'd just die to Itsumade doing a double spin on my blind spotThe stupid crab spams all 3 bubble combos and the watergun because they all count as "ranged" attacks. The Tengu spams both wind shots, and the stupid Gaki is the crucible wraith so despite being a little shitter it takes forever to die when your weapons are 160 +3Speaking of weapon levels, the entire reason I didn't exploit the drop trick early was because this very same thing kinda happened with Nioh 1, and we were just stuck that way with weapons that were far superior to the challenge until the overscaled DLC came out to compensate.
>>733784819scion of tamura, kintaro gives a lot of damage reductionwarrior of the east and demon hunter for martial arts damagegeneral of ruin for ki damage on deflects
>>733784874I died twice in that crucible after killing the big chicken and then getting bubbled by the crab because I forgot about him. I wish there was a battle scroll that took you straight to the death veil / Final boss gauntlet.
>>733784901WotE + Demon Hunter + Kamakura with some Wind Onmyo seems to be the most simple and straightforward pick.

>>733786859
>>733786859thank you kind anon
I am really struggling to play the game past regular NG. It just feels a lot worse than the first two. The style thing is really annoying with how limited it made certain weapons. It aslo feels like so many stats are not worth it when doing later lpaythroughs. Stamina, skill, magic just seem to trump most things.
casuals ruined my series
>>733735508Todo chads already finished a week+ ago and uninstalled.

>>733746027>>733746025>>733772224>Niggas crying that they can't facetank literally everythingLearn to deflect if you want to be aggro 24/7. Stop bitching that you can't just faceroll bosses by spamming an infinite attack chain.

>>733786934yeah the game sucks. At least I'm not gonna miss the 110 bucks. Basically paid team ninja to support their creation of nioh 2 instead of nioh 3.
>>733755456WHOLE GAME ABOUT GETTING SICK-ASS LOOT?ONLY ONE CLAN LETS YOU GET THAT LOOT SICKER, MORE OFTENGAMO FOR LIFEWhat's that, bitch, you need a second ability?HOWABOUT MORE DAMAGE WHEN YOU ATTACK CONSECUTIVELY?What are you some kind of bitch who only attacks once?No fuck you over half the attacks you do are consecutive, get in THIS FUCKING CLAN
>>733787112>learn to (be extremely defensive) if you want to (play aggressively)>stop bitching that you cant just faceroll bossesthat's not what people are bitching about, its needlessly gutting one section of the RPG mechanics while leaving every other part completely untouched, and they are WAAAAAAAAAY, WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY more intrusive in coop than tanking shit will ever be.faggots spamming 13 tornados and 60 fireblast nukes and 7000 lightning bolts instantly killing every enemy in the area before you've swung a weapon is still aroundretard
>>733786859replace the Nioh image with "Hold Y" because that's literally all you need to do
>>733756256Kato only had 20% at max rank.At entry it was 15%, now it's entry at 12%.Gamo starts at 25 luck, you can get it up to 40.
Is there any good way to do a bow, cannon, or rifle build like in 2? Most of the base game gear seems to not really support it well.
>>733755473>ki pulsing after every attackNo, you ki pulse after specific chains of attacksAnd if you Flux, you have a whole suite of attacks that the Ki Pulse functions asSeveral weapons ALSO get an advancing attack on Ki Pulse while holding forward.Between the Flux attacks and free martial arts / heavies in Samurai, you can effectively attack forever if you're not retarded.
>>733736869I killed him because his fight was such a bullshit pacing killer. Really what were Team Ninja thinking when they put him right after Antiquity.
>>733771728It's par for the courseA little easier for sureDLC and time will tellStory is the weakest of the three, though.

>>7337886092 doesn't have a story so it's better than that by default. 1 will never be topped thougheverbeit
>>733748945I'm playing samurai only and the game is also too easy. I first or second pull almost every boss ever since I had the right martial arts. It's not only because of the ninja mode.
