Hundred eyes is one of the easiest bosses in the game, how is he killing you?

What's the best gear to put in my last 3 slots after a 7 piece tsukuyomi bonus? I was thinking of another grace for that ccd, but I kind of want 3 pieces of iga for a lower ccd with ninjutsu replenishment.

>>387854520
That's only if you kill him fast enough. His eyes discording you and the other laser spam he does is significantly worse than anything someone like Yuki Onna throws at you. 100 Eyes was one of my most difficult bosses as well, at least on WotSamurai.

fill in the blank

Hikoemon Ichimonji
ccd (enemy scorched)
fire +20
ccd (critical)
CtA strength

>>387853709
the best part is that they actually made him harder when DLC1 released

>>387854520
Nearly every time with the summoned spikes that fly at you while I'm poorly managing the camera dealing with the little shits. DESU just bad play from me but I found it way more tilting than other bosses. It made me quit at first because I counted it as basically beating the whole game (at that time) and ever since have found him doubly frustrating. I agree, pretty easy though, just shoddy camera work and poor play upsetting me

Though I think I have a point about the kusa, that shit is retarded. I had no gear or spirit synergy and learned one skill

>>387855154
just use LW weapon and focus the eyes instead of ignoring them

they give tons of amrita and will ki LW going for the entire fight

What's the best way to be busted overpowered in this game?

Also should I be dumping all my spare gear into materials souls or money?

>>387855256
disassemble everything, gold isn't really an issue, even if you're spending a good 80 million to make a weapon perfect

critical LW is pretty bullshit even on WotW

tatenashi tank is good up through WotD

>>387855256
I dumped my gear into souls well into WotDemon if it could top me off for a level. Now I'm mostly selling it for gear, although I've taken it apart as well now that a patch enables you to get rare materials on occasion.

I've walked around with steel talisman + power pill + quick change + anti armor/weapon debuffs pretty much the entire game and it's served me all the way through WotD, with Suzaku. On Wise, steel talisman seems useless since everything will 1/2HKO you pretty much no matter what.

>>387853395

>>387856127
I guess my stuff is mostly more about just making yourself survivable than it is about increasing your damage output. But that's because I never made a specific build, all my stats have always been within 5 points of each other, even into the level 300 range.

Do Extend Timely Guard Opening and Extend Parry Opening really have much of an effect? I tried testing it and could only feel a bit of a difference with Timely Guard on my Backwaves but even then I wasn't too sure.

Probably not. Emi Takei's expensive.

His true love is Saoirse and he will make a mistress out of Maria at the end of the last DLC. Then he is going to fuck them both while Okatsu watches.

>>387857463

Yeah I don't even know if it works on all parries and parry-like moves across weapons either, think I'll just stick with 2 pieces of Yagyu for now.

I've been playing this for about 20 hours and never left high stance once, with about a 90% press rate of the heavy attack button.

Are you saying at some point this actually gets hard?

Give me good build for 2kat.

Can I get a running move one

>>387863731
like ARPGs like diablo

until the next difficulties

way of the samurai is there for people to enjoy the "story"

>>387864264
its more about gear then level

something to do with todo, master swordsmen armor set + tatenashi and getting double damage buffs from them

max stamina and dex I guess

You might not always have to but you're doing the game and yourself a huge disservice not learning the ins and outs of Ki Pulse and the stance system.

Does anyone have that old image of the unique dev helmets? I found this one the other day when I was doing Return of the Gourd.

>>387869395
you can easily get ethereals of that one on WotW

that mission's drop rate is great

there are a few others that drop there with things like strong attack ki reduction and strong attack damage as helmet rolls

>>387869395
Talking of which, anyone has that Lucky Tanuki Kabuto?

Where did you get Ai-ji and Red Kappa?

>>387870219
lucky tanuki is a japan exclusive preorder item

you can only get it from a revenant wearing one

>>387870219
Ai-Ji and Red Kappa are both from the first dlc. I'm pretty sure Ai-ji is a mission reward though.

>>387870219

I remember getting red kappa in the overworld, so it's most likely tied to 100% completion of the first DLC areas + the twilight mission on a single difficulty.

What's the funnest weapon?

>>387875271
Probably Spear or Axe. The Tonfas are pretty fun, too. Kusarigama is also cool. The only relatively boring weapons are Sword and Dual Sword, but single Sword is also the best weapon in the game.

>>387875271
All of them of course.

I just want a decent spear at this point. I'm beginning to suspect that the game tends to give you ethereals based on what you have equipped, or my luck is just fucking weird.

just kidding not my face

I'm stuck in Way of the Wise. I've gotten the first four regions unlocked from Grinding With Ginchiyo and doing side missions I know I can get through. Yokai bosses are easy enough (onmyo magic and single sword focused on iai damage) but it took me a few hours to beat ii naomasa on that one side mission. I got some parry timings down and the whopping 8~k damage i get off the parry does almost nothing to his lifebar. it's despairing lads. i fear all the upcoming bosses.

You may only post beneath this line if you've reached Way of the Wise

Parrying is the best (and most fun) way of beating human enemies. But Living Weapon is the most braindead one.

Why are white men such better samurai than the japanese?

>>387878060
Human bosses are retarded on WotW. I beat him in the dojo mission yesterday (not sure if he's any different in the field mission) but Naomasa is one of the easiest human bosses. The Mystic Arts missions are bullshit.

I just unlocked Way of the Demon and all my damages are fucking gone.

lvl 400, balanced stats. Depends on what you mean by fucked. The ennemies aren't harder to beat but it takes fucking forever to kill them.

>>387883292
I heard there are additional extra powerful red enemies, no? How did you get to be level 400 at this point? I've lost very little amrita to deaths, maybe 3-4 levels worth

>>387883292
>>387883498
And I've heard damage is significantly more related to gear than equipment, what's your gear like? Even though enemy behavior might not change, I have a fixed rate of execution failure resulting in getting hit, the longer I have to hit enemies for the more likely I'll get hit, and I'm guessing they'll tear through my anus like wet tissue paper with 150+0 gear

>>387883498
>>387883682
>I heard there are additional extra powerful red enemies, no?
I met two axe wielding skeletons (one of them had a blue glowing) axe and a wheelmonk like that. They didn't hit me so I don't know about them being more powerful but it took a while to kill them like 40 or 50 seconds while I could take regular ones down in like 10 in WotS.
>How did you get to be level 400 at this point?
200 hours in the game (I farmed revenants for hours to unlock skins because online doesn't seem to work for me in this game for some reason) with amrita+ benediction, amrita+ spirit, amrita+ gear, amrita+ clan and a lot of extraction scrolls since the very beginning. I'm capped at 400 since I'm still far from unlocking WotW but I still have almost 1 billion amrita left.
>what's your gear like
Most is around 170+10. Beside amrita earning or elemental, I don't really pay attention to the various weapon slots. I know I should but there are too many and they have such shitty descriptions I don't even want to try to understand them. I mostly just pay attention to the attack/defense multiplier.

>>387884758
If it's taking you that long to bring them down I'm fucked if I don't find quality gear early on. Best of luck, may your Willy rise confidently to the top

>>387874584
The pledius+extraction combo once gave infinite living weapon, but now they just serve to build it up faster; I think Pledius just raises the effect amrita has on filling your meter.
