>>168195906
Well just as I thought nothing like the description. I assumed you can combo your hits into hits from different stances like heavy high into heavy mid etc.

They really need to patch some descriptions.

All the Ki Pulse ones are wrong. Only High gives a damage buff. Mid is more block Ki and Low is a free dodge. It adds a little to some combos but it would be nice to have known that before I got into ng+.

>>168190775

The difficulty curve in the game is odd. The start is harder than the middle.

There is so much "overpowered" shit that once you start getting levels, more spirits, elemental weapons, and magic/ninjutsu you can blow through most bosses and levels.

What's up with this dung ball guy? I want to get through that door but I swear I've found all the dung balls.

I've been reforging forever (with divine fragments) in order to get a change to attack (spirit or magic) modifier, and I've done at least 150+ with nothing of the sort

does it matter which special effect you reforge? for example, the ones I can change:
mid attack damage
proficiency bonus
high attack ki reduction
life recovery by killing strike

please help

Alright, just burned through that 10 mill amarita. Got Dex to 20 and did the ninja mission, unlocked one of the ninjutsu mystic arts. Now all I have left is the Complete all missions achievement, which I think there are a couple missions that are NG+ exclusive, right? Because I only have twin samurais to beat for all the NG missions. And then I need to make like 12 more blacksmith requests for the other achievement and I'll have the platinum.

what part of prevents Ki regeneration has confused you?

Been playing around with ninjutsu, and the only way I can see it being viable is one of two ways.

The first is to stock 3 of the revive scrolls, use iga jonin armor and then use a guardian spirit with very low reuse time.
Iga jonin armor refills your stock of ninjutsu items when you end living weapon. As long as you're not a complete shitter, you just living weapon to get revival scrolls and use them when you think you'll need them.

The other way is just to stack poison shit, hope the poison applies and then run around like an idiot for minutes as stuff dies.
You'll want poison weapon buff, poison shurikens and poison bombs. Iga jonin armor and a guardian spirit you can spam are core.

Bombs are just bad. The smaller ones don't do nearly enough damage, and the biggest one though it does tons of damage takes too long to use.

Shuriken/Kunai aren't worth a dedicated slot and stones do the exact same thing but stack to 99.

Foot spikes are pretty useful and so are power pills but you're not really specialising in these and everyone will probably have them anyway.
In PVP the paralyzing stuff might be useful if you can stack it on people since it'll probably result in a kill right then and there. Likewise in PVP the throwing eggs are going to be really good because they prevent you from locking on.

The biggest problems with ninjutsu is you don't have enough points to get everything, nor enough to prepare it and you sure as hell don't have enough item slots to equip everything.

Your skill with english is impressive

2kat and kusu have the best kicks. 2kat because god of wind hits twice and also does good damage, kusu because you can initiate it without starting a combo. 1kat and spear kicks are noticeably worse, in the base game the difference doesn't matter but when trying to drain a NG+ oni it's really noticeable

axe doesn't need a kick of course

I honestly don't know? I think I got the third one by the fourth region so I'll go check it out.

for the record massive toughness (poise) is incredible but C agility is really, really painful, so I think endgame builds are going to take huge amounts of stamina

>>168200002
only takes like 30 stamina total to get 270 toughness under 70.1% and 270 toughness is absolute fucking dickloads of poise

>>168199983

You can keep B agility using medium bits with rolled toughness, charms with toughness % increase, or 4 pieces of heavy and a good light helmet.

Axes have high damage to balance their poise dependent move set. If they didn't, they would have zero purpose to even be in the game.

Just got the 1kat backflip skill, does yagyu armor not count as light? How do you do it?

>>168203778

Does it get much harder? I beat White Tiger, Frog & Ogress each in under 10 seconds and I'm waiting for the game to catch up to my damage levels.

Why do some yaokai lose like 30-70% of their Ki instantly with just 1 or 2 light attacks (Kurisigama-High)?

yatagarasu is not top tier but you're missing something key about it. it's the only spirit with an A/A rate and recovery that is also strong during living weapon. it's a much stronger LW than aya-komori, the only thing really comparable is double pupper (A/B)

there is no softcap for stamina, it's an incremental decrease the whole way up.

you're better off leveling strength up to 22 or so if you want slightly more equip load.

>>168206370
Outrageously high damage is a draw. A bit more active than the other weapons as well. The only weapon outside of 1 kat where you have to constantly be sucking in Ki from stance changing

If you want to know how I did it? The set you get for dunking all over the 50k proficiency guy was what I used. As well as regen and steel talismans to keep my health up while I hypertraded with bosses.

Okay, so put lots of points into strength and stamina, got it. I assume as long as I'm under 99% equip I should be okay.

Body is fine, that'll let you use a spear as a backup weapon nicely as well. i'd say stay in B agility, but if you want the extra poise then go ahead and go higher. i use the spider spirit since i like explosions of loot from every enemy, but there are a ton of good ones to choose from

I just heard Way of the Warrior: Veteran requires 300k mastery points, is this true? I have been lucky with drops and found really powerful weapons that last me through whole regions, so I'm afraid of my mastery points being low. Where can I check how many I have accumulated?

I think it's 200k, but yes. Anyways you can check proficiency in the stats screen.

So if I was to use 2kat and spear my stat distribution should be something like

n-30
o-30
s-25

>>168207651
Samurai points
With this stat spread most of my points goes into something that returns samurai points. I only have enough to max out a single weapon plus passives.

>>168206934
What was your equip weight at with that set on? It's outrageously heavy.

What set are you using now?

>>168207519
My sword proficiency is capped at 999999, I thought it stopped counting when your weapon had hit the max. I guess the mission didn't unlock because I didn't progress in the main story enough.

>>168209018
It's less use all the stats and more specialize intelligently into a build. Using some of the heavier armor will see you spending all of your points into equipment load to get out of the horrible horrible horrible C tier agility, unless you use a very specific guardian spirit armor setup that can survive being that slow.

In general, it's surprisingly intelligent for a system that can exist alongside random gear drops with random stats and random reforging. But man getting enough points for core skills without passives isn't too hard. It's when you try to put some passives (like more Ki or health or final blow damage) that you start realizing the limits of your own gauge. It's even worse with spears or axes as you'd be stupid not to take the 12% additional damage

>>168196546

I'm actually going fucking mad.
Juro-gumo was a joke when I fought her in the story, now this one keeps fucking one-hit killing me. I'm underlevelled as hell, so that isn't even a surprise.
I swear her legs weren't made of fucking adamantium last time I fought her. My weapon keeps bouncing off her on anything but high stance strong attacks.
These smol spiders that litter the arena are massive cunts as well.
