>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.
first for blue dragon is the best spirit in the game
Adam Watson
have all the soulscucks been purged from the audience yet
Bentley Myers
Nah, they're going to whine about unbalanced PVP for at least a week
Nolan Brown
nope
we will never stop hearing unending shitposting about diablo loot
Benjamin Nelson
or the entire game was dumbed down because there are two less enemies in Isle of Demons compared to the beta
Elijah Carter
>implying it's balanced
Josiah Gutierrez
How much does attack break reduce damage by? Does its reduction stack with wind?
Does every skill automatically have the traits of its weapon? eg. ki burst will inflict water damage or extra final blow damage on a sword with those.
William Hernandez
if only there was a way to save the same character in 2 slots
Angel Perry
what do you mean by attack break?
like a break +14 roll?
>Does every skill automatically have the traits of its weapon? no but if it's a damage bonus, other equipped weapons will benefit from it e.g you will do more melee damage if you have a bow equipped and in your active ranged slot with a familiarity damage bonus
Dylan Torres
I do enjoy the pvp, but i'm pretty sure that 90% of the Nioh audience agrees that the pvp isn't balanced atm which is true.
Juan Evans
I was mainly talking about people demanding the whole game to be balanced around PVP, which is a common souls mentality. I didn't mean to say PVP actually was balanced.
Dominic Lewis
Sorry, meant weapon break. It's one of the new traits along with the weaken armor (type).
Thomas Mitchell
oh
well, weaken melee weapons completely fucks ~90% of their damage. It's so strong that you don't even need wind. But having as many of these kinds of debuffs as possible so that at least one is up at all times is great.
If you want to be as tanky as possible, weaken melee weapons, wind, devigorate talismans and anything you can get your hands on that grants defense boosts is the way to go
I don't have blue dragon yet because I wanted to do the DLC on WotD so I've been using peacock, and a head piece with a defense boost on amrita acquisition and extraction talismans for constant double stacked defense
James Young
What, you don't think this is fair?
Parker Carter
>Hotarumaru has innate auto recovery on amrita >I'm using demon king set and Saoirse
I'm having a hard time staying with the spear. This is too nice.
Isaac Wood
The debuff is alot, in WotD bosses hit like 80% of my hp with normal hits but with the debuff i can tank bosses quite while. If you are using non cheese builds its a must for you to finish WotD.
Ryan Sullivan
Yesterday i faced a machine gun bow user who hit 1500 with bodyshots, too bad i didn't capture that.
Blake Phillips
H O W How do you fire that fast? Bow speed buffs stacking on... gear?
Joshua Hall
Just block them. He will run out of them eventually. lol just kidding he wont
Ayden Miller
there is a shuriken speed up stat you can roll on kote now
Jose Mitchell
>they stack pierce guard
Jason Miller
...
Angel Gomez
piece guard can't be stacked beyond 10.9%
and it only applies to melee weapons
Thomas Martinez
Wait, how does that increase bow speed? Is works for the bow too?
Jose Gomez
That guy felt like a boss.
>start WotD >first enemy, cant be bad >literally one shots me
Jayden Reyes
Centipede spirit has 25% maxed out
My sword has like 14%
That's just flat out wrong.
Aaron Brown
sorry, I thought you were replying to the ninjutsu webm that the guy you replied to was replying to
Samuel Garcia
Oh? Never mind me then.
Samuel Fisher
The game was never even meant to have pvp, we only got it because shitty players have yet again come to a PvE game because they suck at real pvp games and now demand the entire game to be balanced around a non competitive literally meaningless tacked on mode THATS NOT EVEN SUPPOSED TO EXIST
Jose Gomez
Can I get throw speed on Kunai on gloves and how the fuck do I get more ninjutsu power? I only get +173.
Gavin Thomas
>Absurdly better method of getting glory than anything else in the game >Glory is used for PVE content as well
The game doesn't have to be designed around it but shit like is unacceptable and you're actually retarded if you defend it.
Cameron Thomas
99dex 99skill hanzo set ninjutsu power on every piece of gear
Jaxson Jackson
I have a pair of dual katana that are level 179, close combat ki damage/damage/attack ki reduction, fire, fire damage, change to attack (skill). I'm trying to do some crazy as fire build, I'm in way of the demon, I have both suzaku and enko as my spirits, giving me a 70.5% increased fire damage with my ogress mask. Alongside the red demon armor, can you guys think of any other items I could wear or things I could roll to increase that damage further? I have the increased damage over time effect from the ninja tree. For 1v1 fights like champion of the west I poison opponent, then light them on fire for the crazy DoT. I'm not sure how to wrap this post up but fire damage related information beyond what I have listed here would be wonderful and most appreciated
Caleb Mitchell
but if I do ninjutsu power on every piece I lose throw weapon dmg
Ayden Edwards
There is a skill that makes you invisible and they cannot lock on into you that way. These spamming players are usually a 1 trick pony and if you take away that from them they panic.
Bentley Jenkins
I fucking hate that bitch
Benjamin Morgan
>99 body which increases paralysis resistance >every paralysis res passive maxed >paralysis res stats >she still paralysis me with 1 shot and 1 hit kills me in WotD
Josiah Martinez
i know the game was never meant to have pvp and things like that but, why dont they create a mode with the wooden swords/spears/etc like the dojo battles, no spirits or stats. it cant be that hard to implement, and they dont have to balance anything, if you want to have "fun" killing people with 2 o 3 shurikens, you already have that mode, if you want to have fun killing people with wooden weapons that DONT KILL YOU IN 1 FUCKING HIT you dont have that mode. thank you miyazaki
Zachary Adams
I would prefer it if they just abandon the thing and focus all their efforts in PVE. I was disappointed with the low amount of new enemy types in DLC1.
Charles Scott
well i only played the first main mission and a couple of side ones..the 2 new enemies are a little generic. so far its fun, i like the odachi moveset
Christopher Martin
>yfw kuni dmg
Xavier Morgan
Maybe at lower ranks. High rank ninjas use everything in the book, including Suppa and Smoke so you can't lock on to them either. That ninja in the webm was pretty shit in that regard.
You don't know real cancer until they fire jar you forcing you to walk into their legos which then lets them get free kunai stacks on you.
Never liked Living weapon builds, but i like your weapon of choice. I'm using myself skill odachi build and been doing so far WotD missions easily. But in dmg your build is superior to mine.
Aaron Torres
>axe user, still toe-ing into way of the strong >try way of the samurai gourd mission (oda & yusuke) >get bodied so hard I quit for the night >now to plow through Strong to unlock demon mode Is there anything better than 150+10 in way of the strong or am I just not going to get much for upgrades until demon? I only have like a blue axe and 150+0 divine katana at the moment but it seems like 150+10 wouldn't be that much of an upgrade for what is an entire playthrough of the game.
Nathan Butler
You won't get anything better until demon.
Michael Mitchell
If you want to be a retard you could forge and soul match lv 160 +10 gear but its just easier to do WotD first missions and get +170 +10 gear from the first mobs.
Caleb Bennett
No, 150+10 is the max for WotS, aside from the rare 160 when forging. Main difference between the start and end of WotS is that at the start you get mostly +0's and +1's, while at the end they're around +5 and such.
Brayden Flores
It was more just that I'll have to go through the entire game again just to get to new equipment. Hopefully you don't have to do side missions. I'm not exactly super fast at killing stuff.
Jason Johnson
>Hopefully you don't have to do side missions.
You have to. You will only find lvl160-170 weapons in the first couple of regions. You need to do side missions to fill up the bar and unlock the regions where the high level weapons are. At 50% completion you can start crafting lvl200 weapons.
Elijah Ortiz
so instead of a NEXT difficulty level after way of the demon
how about they have RNG dungeons like blood borne and have a new material to give out that has a higher value then divine stones to have a better chance at getting rarer equipment augments
Blake Cox
I meant side missions to unlock way of the demon, but I assume I need to do side missions for that as well. Damn this will take some time.
Christian Johnson
I wouldn't mind RNG dungeons, that would be fun as fug. I think they should add new rarity tier which is ultra rare and alot better than divine.
Nathan Clark
Please no. Fuck Chalice Dungeons.
Wyatt Foster
There is no time for that. Its a big feature. Also chalices fucking sucked.
Luke Gomez
I just wonder what Kelley's up to!
Austin Parker
Only problem with chalice dungeons was going through story chalices every time you made a new character. Doing D5 FRC was fun if you weren't just spamming Merciless Watchers over and over.
Leo Bailey
can you get thrown weapon damage and thrown weapon damage x2 on you gloves? because you can get thrown weapon ki damage and thrown weapon damage.
Ryder Flores
No, they clearly intended glory to be obtained through co-oping just like dark souls were the casuals would have a co-op partner, perhaps they were intending toowards the end of the games life cycle to release co-op content that is significantly harder than everything else who knows.
PVP literally shouldn't exist, it's detrimental that with how many whiners there are now they are going to start focusing resources on it, like what im trying to say is it's bad for the games health that they clearly took time out of developing future dlcs to appease shitters from the souls series that believe in the whole muh honor fag bow before duels.
In fighting games people that complain about op stuff and place self restrictions on themselves and complain that they only lost because of their restrictions are called scrubs. That's literally where the term scrub came from.
I'm trying to say that the people that thoroughly enjoy dark souls pvp and want it to be balanced are bad videogamers and they are now ruining yet another game with their bullshit.
Ethan Sanchez
to add to this, there are plenty of pvp games that are out there, hell action rpgs. arpg mmos, fightning games, that for honour game that has the lock on type combat and stuff.
The people complaining about pvp and the ones that begged for it are just pure retards im literally upset because im enjoying the fuck out of this game, and I am dying for more content but now when things start getting balanced around pvp it's going to ruin the game
Jaxon Powell
Let's post happy Williams.
Dylan Campbell
Jesus dude, they just need to fix couple things that are breaking the pvp and its good again. Sure Nioh was supposed to be first just for singleplayer but when i'm tired of farming gear its fun in a while to go pvp in Nioh since it has pretty decent combat. I'm not asking to balance all Nioh around pvp but just the most retarded things to be fixed. Also 2vs2 in Nioh is pretty comfy too so it's shame that couple things are breaking it
Gabriel Johnson
Do Power Pill/Carnage scale with Ninjutsu/Onmyo power respectively? Or do they just give a straight, unchanging buff?
Wyatt Lee
>farm 200k glory from revenants over the course of the weekend >get rewards today >all I get is a piddly 2k glory and no discount are you kidding me lads
Jayden Smith

Ryder Morris
The only useful thing you can get from getting bunch of glory is bigger clan special effects.
Kevin Green
I want them to first fix all the retarded shit before adding anything new.
Ian Price
>mfw I farmed 200,000 glory in 1 day by spamming kunais in 2v2 pvp and winning 5k glory per match.
William Powell
wind +14 ki damage against blustered 12.9% ki damage 8.9% CtA Stamina A equip weight damage bonus A CCD 15% pierce 10.9%
which one of these stats should I replace with 25% attack ki reduction with for the kusarigama, if any at all
wind is a locked effect
Alexander Brooks
Pierce
Jonathan Hughes
but pierce is so good on kusari
Samuel Wilson
did they suddenly make ninjutsu strong as shit while i was gone? what's with all these million damage shuriken?
Brody Wood
New skill and affixes that double the damage. Onmyo users on the other hand got shafted with nerfed sloth and weakness. Literally no reason to be a mage now.
Jonathan Phillips
nah
the elemental shots are extremely strong now, arguably even more broken in pvp because they're all instant status effect inflicts first hit
Jonathan Nguyen
>odachi dojo i've never lost my temper at a videogame, but boy am I close
Josiah Phillips
>get hit once with a wind shot and once with a lightning shot >suffer from the equivalent of sloth but without the duration reduction >do no damage because of wind >take ~50% more damage because of discord >down to 1/3 health because each shot did 1500 damage and I'm not a tatenashi tank with stacked elemental resist

Chase Morales
Can you actually lose in that fucking dojo? Just spam your shoulder bash you win.
Isaiah Scott
>Go into mission >It's a rematch against ice lady >Realize I am about to get capital-F Fucked > >Nobunaga spawns
Is this a "come back when you're massively overleveled" type of mission?
Easton Howard
Double boss missions are for cheese builds only.
Nolan Sanders
The "meeting on the other shore" mission? it's possible to do when you gain access to it probably. I did it just fresh after beating the game, took like 6 tries though. Fighting those two with an axe is fucking suffering. I can't do shit in the "return the gourd" mission though.
Thomas Moore
>return the meme literally le prepare to le die xD we want the dark souls audience: the mission
Brody Parker
Nah, normal double boss missions are easily doable without cheese builds. Only missions which are going to be needed to cheese are "le fight against 10 waves of enemies then 2 bosses"
Alexander Fisher
Are you having a stroke? Why would you think bothering to type that shit out would be worthwhile?
Brayden Thomas
You can get them but they don't stack, it's one or the other.
Colton Reed
are you?
Gavin Robinson
I'm pretty sure they effect melee only, or close combat at least since that's what it states.
Gavin Garcia

Sorry this is super late but I was in an exam. If you're still interested here's my sword which should be proof of it being able to go above 10% on even a single item.
Is it Still possible to roll close combat damage %? Its the only thing I don't have on my 2kat and I think it'd go a long way to helping crank up my DPS.
I'm sick of my 200 +14 2kat doing garbage ass damage even with Familiarity bonus AND change to attack Skill A+.
Luis Hill
this is not a tekken
Julian Martin
what weapons do u think we will get in future dlcs
Ian Collins
I was talking about at base familiarity.
The cap for the stat at base is 10.9%.
I forgot about centipede tho
Nathan Smith
He actually has one hell of an unblockable rifle build.
