>What does each element do?
http://nioh.wiki.fextralife.com/Status+Effects

>What should I do with the armour/weapons I don't want/use?
Purple/Blue = Disassemble (Then use the blue mats to forge a purple if you have enough)
Yellow/White = Sell or you can give it to the kodamas for amrita and the odd free item.

>What does the summoning candle do?
It returns your guardian spirit to you when you die along with the amrita you collected.

>Should I use soul match?
Honestly, no, not unless you have basically finished the game and have a weapon with some really great stats. As you progress you will get a steady flow of new weapons and armour that is better than what you have. Don't waste your money on soul matching until later.

>Why do people keep mentioning "smithing texts"?
Bosses tend to drop pieces of their armour and weapons when you defeat them. Very rarely they will drop a smithing text which allows you to forge their armour/weapon.

>Which clan should I join? (clan unlocked through progression)
Whichever one has a bonus that you think will benefit your build the most.

Reposting testing on onmyo damage scaling-

A low square quick attack went like this:
>5 mag: 383/251
>15 mag: 405/265
>40 mag: 431/282
>99 mag: 431/282

So this is actually better if anything. I wonder if other stat scalars are hard capped like this.

repostin from other thread

After playing this game tirelessly since release, I for one have to say I absolutely cannot wait for the release of PvP to add a new dynamic to this already spirited experience. It seems as though the skill cap for almost all build approaches to this game is near endless already, and the added aspect of PvP is just going to make it more insane.
So the question is: Do we know ANYTHING about what the PvP will be like?
I for one have not been able to dig up any useful information, but has anyone else?
If anything, what are your educated speculations on what PvP will consist of?
The only thing I know is that all human characters and revenants etc do not have any ability that a player does not, in order to prepare players for its onset. What do you know?
Finally, I'm sure it's a ways out, but is there any info on a release for this?
-Sincerely, a Nioh addict who is already looking for more.

I hope to holy God and back it's just the dojo with wooden weapons. I've said this before.

This game is great but even the greatest of fans must realize it's broken and has so many builds that make the game trivial, outputting insane damage that the devs I'm sure did not intend directly.

If not, I'm sure pvp would turn into a kunai unlimited projectile shitfest.
>>
>>168745869
The bridge area with the big guy is still pretty good for farming revenants.
>>
>>168745498
I've seen a lot of people say that there are only soft caps.
So in the short run that does seem great, but once you are running around at lvl200 it gets out paced by "true" stat scaling.

Not sure if my stats are actually any decent at the moment. I pumped a lot into Body without even using spears and now I don't want to remove it as Spears are super useful for duels.

Body 18, Heart 20, Stamina 12, strength 8, skill 22, Dex 6, Magic 20, Spirit 18.

I been pumping a lot into Spirit as I used Raikiri throughout the whole game. Using the Warrior of the West set with a 1H Kat with a A+ Heart scaling I found on a Rev and a Dual Kat.

Any advice? Not having trouble at all, but should I reroll the Body out

You know I love Nioh far more than I do The Witcher 3 but I can't imagine why someone would find the story of Nioh better than Witcher 3 unless they have a massive hard-on for alternate history stories.

Assuming unlimited ninjutsu? Get rid of heart and strength and dump into dex until you're capped, then skill after. It's worth it to dump 5 more magic points to for the instant cast.

Dexterity never stops giving the highest ninjutsu damage and has higher kusari damage scaling than skill, skill is next in line after dexterity though.

No, those two can stack. The ones that can't stack are two "Change to Attack"-style stats, and by that I mean you can never roll two of those at the same time. The same things applies to elements, you simply can't get two of them. You only have to worry about this if you're for example trying to roll a specific stat scaling and you got another, you will have to replace it because you won't get your preferred stat as long as that one is active. I'm making it sound more complicated than it is.

Stay nose to nose with the wheelmonk while holding block. You'll notice it begin to "inhale" as a tell/sign that it's about to use it's fire breath attack. When it starts doing that just start walking/sprinting around to get to it's back and be ready to stop moving as it unleashes the fire breath attack. While it's doing its attack swipe the face with the glowing crystal and it'll flip over as if out of stamina. (don't remember if it actually loses all stamina or not because of this) While it's down, smack the shit out of it with and back off before it jumps back up with an AoE. So long as you stay in its face it won't roll around, but be holding block just in case. It's easy peasy lemon squeezy. Tengu is >>168755164 pretty much dead on. Only thing I can add to that is to dodge to the left or straight past it when it goes to whack you with its staff and if I remember correctly it is weak to fire.

it's the best giant multi-part monstrosity boss i've seen in years.

it doesn't have ridiculous health. it doesn't 1-shot you from full at the appropriate level unless you get counter hit, even in light armor. each limb can be damage at any time and you have some options on which you want to hit. you can even cannon the boss until you run out of ammo.

more importantly you're not locked into a tiny platform unlike 99% of these fights. you have freedom of movement up until you need to hit the head.

How should I be respeccing. Want to go from 1kat/kusari/ninjutsu (obviously been dabbling with 2kat for a while now) to 1kat/2kat Onmyo with some Spirit.

Level 69

Stamina: 7
Strength: 9
Skill: 23
Dexterity: 20 (damn shame cause I dropped Kusarigama)

That's a lot of stuff you wanna do and you're a real low level. I wouldn't worry about stats yet, desu. Just take enough magic to equip what you want and enough spirit to get the passives of the spirit you like.

Easy-peasy if you played the second beta and know what to expect.
She's the Gascoigne of Nioh.
The paralysis effect is a real shock, but all of her attacks can be dodged easy and she isn't significantly bulky. Her audio cues are easier to pick up than some other bosses.

I still hate Nue though.

No she isn't. Gascoigne was balanced. I got my ass reamed by the Orphan of Kos, and even that didn't bother me because it was balanced.

Hino has:
1. Two 2 hit combos, with a third attack that she can just randomly pull out of her fucking ass at will

2. A hard stun that inflicts massive damage

3. Aerial of denial capabilities sandwiched into another 3-hit combo that can easily break your guard

4. A drain ability.

This is the THIRD boss of the game.

I don't know.

I explore the levels to make sure I get all the Kodama and any hotspring, so lighting the torches was never an issue.

Maybe people are confused because the majority of the fight it appears to have its body outside of the arena, though you can still attack it easily, and I always thought Umi-bozu felt pretty bulky even if you were exploiting the fire weakness.
The exception being that mask, which deals a surprising amount of fire damage if you position/time it right.

nothing prepares you for gascoigne leading up to him. the villagers are slow and have incredibly telegraphed attacks, the werewolves and giants will make new players play cautiously rather than aggressively. there is no real need to parry or adopt bloodborne's aggressive philosophy leading up to gascoigne, he's a pretty drastic shift in playstyle and it catches new players off guards, me included.

you use an emote that ISN'T what the revenant used. You get 2 chances so you have a 50/50 shot. If you fail, it just attacks you like normal, but if you succeed you get better rewards plus you don't have to fight him.

The only things I like in Ninjutsu are the shapeshift or whatever that's basically second chance and the item capacity increases for ranged weapons and more elixir recovery (I think that's ninjutsu).

Magic I use both heals, sloth, carnage, and the ones that lower attack and defense. Guardian summon one is based on what guardian you have at the moment and most of them are shit so I stopped using it. Using it for the bull spirit is pretty good though.

That would be neat, but also kinda pointless. You can have armors the pretty much cover up your entire body, and then the only thing you would see is maybe a different base model for the armor.

My bad if I came off snobby. I was assuming that she was one of those options, but apparently not, at least by my point in the game.

I'm starting up a level 1 run and wanted your ideas on what the best free stats would be.

I'm thinking Body/Dex and then Skill or Strength.

Body will give me the largest health boost and allow me to equip just a few more armours.
Dex will give me those extra few points in Ninjutsu capacity, so I can use Power Pills.

Skill or Strength would both allow me to use different armour, but I'm having trouble deciding which would be better.

Musashi has a subquest when he's still Takezo. It's given to you after you complete the 2kat dojo mission.

Well they already scale with 5 of the 8 stats in the game anyway, one of which being the stat that give you the most health. They do both scale with skill, so what you'd do with that should be obvious.

I'd say skill over strength just because at level 1 in the later areas it won't matter how much armour you have on since things are going to one shot you anyway.
May as well stay in light armour for the A agility.

>the white guy mc
That baffled me so much during the betas, before he was clearly identified as William "Shogun" Adams.
If you don't have that historical connection, it's really baffling why you're exploring Japanese folklore and history from the perspective of a baka gaijin.
And then even with that historical connection, you're just there fighting yokai, and not say, fighting Portuguese and advising Ieyasu on cool European shit.

It's cool, but still feels like an awkward choice.

True, but the only one I can think of that's actually useful to me and unlocked at 6 is +100 health.
It's totally possible I'm forgetting some though, if someone has that full list of spirits with all their bonuses, I'd appreciate it.

>>168765517
This was my train of thought too.
I'll go Skill unless I see something really nice on the Spirit list.

I -COULD- go Skill/Dex/Spirit actually. 60 more HP if I have Isonade equipped.

>Where can I get the magic dual swords?
Be more specific.
>>
>>168765208
I'm certainly feeling fatigue, but I'm almost done in NG+ and completed every single mission again.

As far as I'm concerned it should've had more main missions and less, or no, sub-missions.
And more level variety. It gets very samey. Should've gone away from realistic feudal shithole #23 and turn up the fantasy aspect a bit more since there's Youkai and stuff anyway. There's plenty of cool locations in japanese legend, I wish they had made use of them.
Azuchi Castle is literally the only extraordinary location in the game and it's the penultimate fucking level.

And less night. And dust. And mist. And red.
Do they have a grudge against visibility?

And more enemy variety would've also helped.

>>168765454
What smithing texts are even worth farming for? What is the reason to use forging instead of reforging at endgame?

Dual swords that scale with Magic stat, or any weapon that can scale with magic stat.

This sounds best to me. At least for the early game.

>>168765863
get lucky, reforging?
>>
>>168765790
(Insultingly) Cheaper, and can be savescummed. Forging also tends to give better bonuses out of the gate than just mashing reforge in my experience.

So I've been told that, to unlock the 2kat master trainer, I just need 500k proficiency with 2kat, and to beat the veteran mission

I've done that, but I don't have the master mission yet. I looked it up, and some places say I need ALL weapons at 500k. I've also heard that I need to progress the story (I just got to the Sekigahara region)

So what's the deal?

Reforging is not a replacement for forging. Smithing texts are valuable though because crafted equipment have lower requirements than found gear by roughly half. Can save you from dumping points in a stat you don't need like body or strength or skill or some shit depending on your build.
>>
>>168766007

500K proficiency and getting far enough in the game. Once you get to that point, you'll get ALL weapon master fights. You can only DO the ones you qualify for, though.

You haven't unlocked the last region, that's the problem.

>>
>>168766149
So how much further do I need to go?
>>
>>168765872
Skill/Dex/Spirit is mighty tempting, but there's a chance the Spirit point will be useless if I end up using another spirit for the buffs it provides (Like Suzaku for example)

Body/Dex/Skill will be 60HP tougher early game, but 40HP easier later on. It's not a big number by any means, but I don't want to regret one of the only 3 free points I'll get.

How do you unequip parts of armor?

I see people without facemasks on helms that have them, or even some people with coats missing on certain stuff.

So Spirit affects guardian talisman damage. from 25 to 99 is about a +50% damage increase, along with a massive increase to super charge rate. Not too bad really, it scales pretty decently.

Damage goes Suzaku (full cast) > Enko = Atlas > Fuse-Ushi = Mizuchi = Kato = Shinka > * if anyone was wondering.

I think they drop on the Defiled Holy Mountain map and Ocean Roars Again. Quite rare though.

I've done one or two side missions. The rest has been grinding main missions for 30 hours. Feeling bored, might need to take a week or so break from it.

there's no reason to worry about damage, if the number on the stat page is higher it's higher.

I tend to mainly use 1kat, 2kat, kusa and spear rarely (when I need a fresh approach) and I'm not sure what to do with my stats. I wear light medium normally. I generally use second chance ninjutsu, kunai and makibishi as well as sloth for annoying enemies but not bosses, and carnage/guardian spirit/elemental weapons for onmyo.

My stats are:

13 body
16 heart
10 stamina
10 strength
16 skill
10 dex
10 magic
12 spirit

Does anyone have any suggestions for me so as to make them more helpful to me?

you should have your weapons be skinned to be wooden

keep magic and dex around the same until you decide which one to use.

There's no such thing as a mage type build, magic doesn't really deal damage. It's all crowd control, buffs, debuffs. You also have really limited shortcut space.

I mean I'm sure they're fine, its just that everything the spear and katana does is just so efficient/versatile/effective.

On that note please help me learn to use the kusarigama. 2kat and axe I manage pretty okay but I feel like the Kusarigama locks you into attacks for what feels like forever and William ends up getting booped in the nose while flailing around like a dope more often than not

Well, you could always do what I do.
Just equip the 1kat as decoration while you fuck everything up with your main weapon
>>
>>168770602
I prefer 1kat just because it feels like it has something in its moveset for absolutely everything.

2kat I run into some problems every now and then, particularly fighting in hallways or near walls where 2kat's moveset gets cut into about a tenth to avoid bouncing like a dork. The high stance also feels somewhat vestigial and not as useful, but that just might be me, and I only really use it in the aforementioned hallway fights sometimes.

That's the thing though; everything I'm using is a part of a set.

Basically:
1. 1kat skills in general are dull. Sword of meditation sucks dick compared to water sword or whirlwind. Iai is cool but Sign of the Cross is the same thing but charges faster.
2. Both the single katana parries are good but The Shrike is functionally identical to Haze II which is clearly the superior parry.
3. The dual katana's followup to the kick where you time it properly is really neat and powerful. My combo with 1kat ends in a kick into staring awkwardly into the yokai's eyes.
>>
>>168770846
use the high stance skills that pull the enemy toward you (gives you a free combo) and the one that sweeps them of their feet.

this makes all human sized enemies trivial.

the high stance also does INSANE ki damage and has an amazing poke with triangle.

Oh and most important, dual katanas scale off of skill primarily whereas single katana is heart. Skill is used in basically every weapon so it's a very valuable stat compared to heart. 99 heart makes the game feel too easy because you can just ignore ki pulse; you'll never run out anyways.

I feel the same way mang, my first character I started with was dex with dual katanas and kusarigamas and it just felt so fucking weird so I restarted at the 3rd mission.

I just got back to the same spot earlier today, this time using the axe and 1kat and holy fuck they feel so much better to use. Axe-mid stance with a mix of weak attacks, running attacks, and spin-2-win has been amazing for killing multiple enemies and sword-mid has basically the balder side sword moveset from dark souls.

One thing I did like about the Kusarigama though is that each stance was useful where I don't even see the point of anything but low-mid for axe/sword.

Water sword is the crazy ass sword flailing you see in a few of the .webms here

God of wind II is the follow up to the kick.

Original 1kat fag here, I'll try and give them more of a shot, I didn't get much of an impression from either of them when I tried them, I was feeling water sword was one of those very impressive but not that useful type moves when I tried it.

god of wind breaks enemy ai, if you repeat it at the right time with a quick mid attack they will either get hit by all of it and be stunlocked or, they will attempt to block and take massive ki damage. it trivializes any human enemies if done correctly.
>>
>>168771807
You are correct, I didn't know that they had called the kick God of Wind, thought it went Kick > God of Wind > God Of Wind II

Being able to sucessfully pull of God of Wind III on demand is game changing.

Shit scaling stats, shit skills, bleeds ki, just got a nerf making them slower.
>2kat
Best scaling stats it never caps, best and most damaging skills in the game, best ki management in the game, quickest attacks/skills, quickest way to stack elements, highest DPS, good skills come early and best skills shortly after, quickest TTK on bosses, by its very nature has the best synergist rolls for stats, best set armor that favors a specific weapon.

I have more success generally from far away, actually. The downward jumping hit (last one) is the only one that matters and if you're whiffing then the enemies sometimes will drop their guard and run into it.

Do the fires affect Bozo in any way besides giving you the ability to get fire damage on your weapon?

Prevents small bozu from spawning

It removes the mini bozus that would normally show up

the other yokai are dumb. kappa are smart, they know you can't swim in that water
>>
>>168772795
If you have the fires up, you'll kill Bozu's adds as they spawn. Basically free loot/elixers during the fight.

If the fires are off because you didn't light them or lit your weapon on fire (which does turn them off) the mini bozu's will jump onto the deck and be a nuisance.

It's a struggle making this decision for my first time picking.

>>168772054
There are definitely others that complain about Nue, especially when his ki recovery attack will one shot you if you're by him since the first bolt of his ki recovery tracks you and the second is on him, if you're just smacking away at his red ki on top of him you'll take two bolts to the face and probably die. Other than that move though he's super predictable.

White tiger on the other hand...

I went Ishida for first time for similar reasons, worked out pretty well.

Furuta might be the best technically, for the Silver Tongue and Luck bonus.
>>
>>168771368
>1
Yeah, I feel ya on that. Basic skills, and Meditation is actually just awful. 1 kat Iai is flat superior due to its upgrades, and if you don't like the normal version, there's the sprint version and the multi-hit version.
>2
I dunno. People recommend The Shrike but I honestly feel like it's one of the worst parries in the game. It's easy to do, but there's no follow up ability, and the animation takes so long that it feels awkward trying to do anything fancy after it. Compare it to Haze where it completes fast enough to ki-pulse into a fully charged Iai, then either Iai the enemy again or ground stab them.
>3
Yeah, God of Wind is the single best thing in the game and every weapon suffers for not having a timing based ability like it. My combos with 1kat are usually more about ki-pulse dodging and doing normal attacks instead of using the kick, though.

How much does forging an armor piece reduce the requirements by? I'm looking to farm the Master Swordsman's armor smithing text (2kat set). The requirements are 13/13 stamina and strength. I need 16 stamina and 13 strength to wear it at C agility, which I'm fine with. You need 99 I'm pretty sure to wear it at B, fuck that for now I'm only level 103.
Anyone know what the requirements would be if I forged the armor myself?
>>
>>168765141
i'm doing level 1 too. chose body and skill so i can wear good forged light armor. chose shark spirit for the extra passive ability unlock.

it does. i don't know for master swordsman, but for every set i've seen it practically halves requirements.

oh shit now im hype.

Do the bosses get any new moves?
>>
>>168774654
Thanks a lot anon.

>>168773981
It'll probably be 7/7 or around there; the Warrior of the East has similar requirements, I believe, and I can confirm drops down to 7/7 with forged.
>>
>>168774460

I think I am up to 40% free ammo right now with a Yatagarasu 2kat build.

Its pretty fun.

>find a revenant in full tatenashi

>>168775969
i mean does certain armor types(weight) have more chances of being a certain attribute for reforging?

I think some pieces may not be able to get certain attributes but that may be bullshit.

What exactly is the arc on Onryoki's non-shackled back-pivot swipe?

I can't consistently dodge into it. If I hug his ass, I can sometimes stay safe, and if I'm a certain distance away I'm safe sometimes but it feels like he can reach on it and it's not a set arc.
It's for one of the demon-hunting sub-missions where you're in the underworld and a hammer guy shows up.

I'm having flashbacks to one of the Chalice dungeon bosses and having to dodging angles down to a science.
