/ng/ - Nioh General

I mean to say that you do meet Musashi.

i actually tried to test this
battling giant toad, i equipped both pairs of swords and attacked him using both, despite a difference of about 200 damage between them i was doing indistinguishable damage numbers to mister toad
seriously am i retarded or am i getting fucked here

Is Musashi the guy you fight alongside in the side mission unlocked after beating the dual wield master? I didn't check to see what his name was, but it'd make sense. He'd be about the right age, and the dual-wield master mentions that he thinks he'll make something of himself with the 2kat style.

should I keep the familiarity damage bonus or

Yes. Check the description of his headband.

Yeah, he is. Just look at the helmet info for the headband to see his name. Future dlcs may have an older Musashi after the duel with Sasaki Kojiro.

Just keep it and look for an inheritable CCD 20%

CCD?

Another legend to be beaten by the Irishman. Did this game actually sell in Japan? Can they handle a gaijin beating all of their legendary people?

close combat damge 15% and 20 % when is full familiarity

It's not just that, he tells you his name at the end of the mission. It's a very hard thing to miss.

I was spamming past the dialog.

I came here to complain about the master guy not being Musashi immediately after finishing that mission and seeing the name of the dual-wield master in the post-mission dialog.

How does the quitting out method work for farming smithing texts?
I thought I was supposed to return to the main menu, but that resets the entire mission. Does it only work for boss fights?

You need to use a shrine.

So it wouldn't work for missions like the rematch against Giant Toad?

Quick, post your Mage Builds

so is pvp kill ? 10 mins and nothing holy shit

No, but for giant toad you can just spam the mission over and over.

Yeah. But you don't need anything for that since it's just a quick mission.

I'm actually farming the kamui smithing text from Disturbances in the North, but that one is also pretty quick I guess.

Thanks guys.

I just did that today myself. For missions like that there's no choice but to suck it up and do the whole thing everytime.

Does anyone know how we can get Date's nurarihyon? He only seems to drop the dragon.

wheres the best place for farming charms? not necessarily yasakanis

fuck me I need help on Way of the Strong Date masamune, he's shredding my ass with OHKOs.

oh I get it, there is a reason why Im not being matched up too often

no one is high enough ranked for that stuff

mfw playing Muneshiggy
mfw 2v2 partner is ginchiyo

>always have problems with the dual swords yokai
>get dlc
>they gave him a shotgun with infinite ammo and no reload because fuck you

You can dodge and punish his shiny lunge attack that he uses at long range. Learn the distance on it and counter it. That's enough to get you through wind phase. For water phase he has a much shorter range version of the same attack that you need to stand at about mid distance to trigger.

how far into the DLC is blue dragon?

i assume the very end?

Yes.

Any build to make Usura-Hicho relevant?

He's not available to the player. Maybe we'll get him next dlc.

Unfortunately no.
>hit passives, like half of them pertain to yokai realms and how you deal with them
>shit for LW
>shit spirit talisman
>shit secondary guardian
Usura will never be anything but bottom-tier unless they actually tweak it.

holy shit you can get 5k just for co-op lmao

>Finally got to Marobashi in WoTD
>Thought it'd be impossible to run it efficiently with ninja build.
>Remember groundfire traps.
>Throw one down
>Final blow from behind
>2-3 storm kunais
>On to the next one
>Old fuck with the spear gets up too fast (for some reason) for kunai from behind so lay down 2 for him.
>Divines with +12-15 galore
>At least a million gold every time I dump the exotics and lower in the shop.
>Finally get my 2kat up to +18, plan on maxing it today.

I finally made it boys. I'm rollin in it. It was entirely worth the 2 straight days I spent completing all the misisons of the first 4 regions

that old man looks like one of those feelsguy brain memes

You can kill humans with ninja stuff just fine. Dodge behind them, if you're directly behind them, you can stunlock them and they won't turn around to block. Just spam Kunai on them, since they'll get knocked too far away for Storms to hit them. Depending on the angle, they might get out of the stunlock eventually, but then you can just repeat. Sloth makes it easy to dodge behind them.

Shame. I actually like Usura's concept. Maybe when they introduce Yuki-onna costume.

Is this game worth getting? I honestly love Souls games. I played the demo and something seemed off, but I can't put my finger on what.

yes

its not like souls bruh 2fast4u

No.

it's not souls

don't go in thinking it plays like souls

it's more like ninja gaiden

also yes

Yeah its still nowhere near as efficient as the dude with the odachi build where he LW's and just runs through all of them. Plus that build gets you like 150m amrita each time.

And god DAMN these levels get expensive fast as shit. I'm up to like 53.6m a level now. Does it ever cap off like it did before? Or does it steadily grow all the way up to 400?

220 hours in. Absolutely love this game. Love it far more than any souls I ever played (BB, DS2 and part of DS3). If you're a souls guy don't come into this game expecting it to play like it. The ONLY things borrwed from souls in this game is fundametal ARPG design. The combat is almost entirely different and far more fast-paced. But yes, I highly reccomend it. My GoTY by a large margin.

no , wait for a sale its not worth 60 burgers , and the pvp is dead and horrendous

It's worth getting for its own merits. It is not a souls game and should not be treated like one.
If the demo felt off then I can't recommend it to you, the last demo was a pretty accurate representation of the full game.

>Playing Nioh for PVP.

its fun to dick around while being both B rank agility in heavy armor, and having a bunch of magic and ninjitsu to fuck around with

especially with lots of legos to throw at the ground

>odachi build where he LW's and just runs through all of them.

link?

If you didnt like the demo you will not like the game. It is the exact same thing.

Is there a level cap or is it like Souls games where you can keep leveling until you have 99 in every stat?

I'm at 370 here and the costs are slowly getting higher (close to 200m for a level). I'm not gonna bother going full autism mode just to get to 400 quicker since you already get a shit ton of amrita just doing coop and farming gear.

Cap is level 400.

the latter

I can't find the original video where dude was transformed as Tome and used a fire living weapon. but this is essentially the same thing. The key difference is Amrita gain, you'll want Two magatamas that increase amrita gain with living weapon by 28-ish% each, and as much Amrita gain from humans as you can roll on your armor, and of course an odachi with really well rolled stats.the video I saw dude got 150m amrita every run with the onmyo amrita boosters and the sake.

youtube.com/watch?v=utAWTPX-bVo

can anyone tell me if all smithing texts drop from all dificulties or are there any exclusives?

Thanks.

when you mean gain, you mean gauge rate, right?

amrita earned doesn't affect LW stuff does it?

Before DLC level cap was 750. With DLC it is now 400.

No I mean gain, its a rare roll on magatamas that increases amirita GAIN by 28ish percent while using a living weapon. Its the key item in amirita farming builds.

I have never seen the stat you're talking about and I have over 350 hours in the game, unless it's a slight translation difference in localization like killing blow vs final blow

Im lookin at it right now boss.

AMRITA EARNED (USING LIVING WEAPON). Like I said its a rare roll on Magatama accessories. I was lucky enough to have it roll on a yasakani as well as have another one with it rolled.

you just said GAIN not EARN

go buy diablo instead

>Nioh golden armor has ''increase money gained''
>every other piece of armor was ''increased gold gained''

This is odd.

I don't see how you could discern a difference between the two. Sorry about the semantics, buddy.

there are a million different stats in the game with slight differences in name

I've never heard of amirta gained because it doesn't exist so I didn't know what you were talking about and asked if you mean one of the 12 other amrita stats to which you continued to get the name wrong yourself

>night falls again
who came up with this shit
>wheel monk,oni bi AND umbrellas

My point was you're making a big deal out of two words that are essentailly the same thing. if you didn't know about the stat yourself its your own ignornace, and if you DID know in the back of your head that its earned instead of gained you're still a jackass because you knew exactly what special effect I was talking about to begin with. Get over yourself, man. I already apologized for the semantics.

Any hopes and expectations?

Genbu, Tatenashi and an axe for Adamantine. Use Shadowround for unlimited ele-shots.

You have no idea how much that bothered me when I first noticed it.
Particularly since gold has never once been referred to as money in-game.

>you didn't know about the stat yourself its your own ignornace
I knew about it.

>and if you DID know in the back of your head that its earned instead of gained you're still a jackass because you knew exactly what special effect I was talking about to begin with
No, I didn't. As proof of that, I asked if you meant gauge rate because I honestly didn't know what the fuck you were talking about.

does difficulty matter when going after smithing texts

>redboys drop ~130 glory
>A good level might let me farm 3 of them in about 5 minutes
>that's about 390 glory per 5 minutes, 78 glory per minute
>51 hours to reach 240k glory needed to unlock Ginchiyu, Fuku, and Okatsu

single player Enigma took less time than this, what the fuck

cat is already obtainable

wait

shadow round works for the elemental shots?

holy shit that's great

I was fucking mad when Janome-Cho showed up and we didn't get her.

What are your predictions for nerfs next patch?

>Honeestly didn't know what you were talking about
>Yes I knew about the stat

I TOLD you I wasn't talking about the gauge rate, I was talking about amerita gain. If you knew about the stat already and that it was earned instead of gained but still asked me then the only reason you asked me was to correct an irrelevant semantic issue. Which I already appologized for. As I said, you're just a jackass who wanted to correct me on something irrelevant.

everything

into the ground

no idiot

I knew that amirta earned existed. I didn't know it was what you were talking about at the time, which is why I asked if you meant gauge rate. Even after you said it wasn't gauge rate and repeated to say gained, I still didn't know what you were talking about.

I only know what you're talking about now because you looked it up and corrected yourself because you were wrong.

And I told you I didn't mean gauge rate, and you told me you'd never seen that stat, even though you admitted you knew that stat existed but it said earned instead of gained. Which is an irrelevant issue of semantics. I wasn't wrong about anything but a word difference thats absolutely irrelevant and you felt the need to correct me on it because you're a jackass who has to feel like someones wrong and you're right. I'm done replying to you dude. Get over yourself, seriously.

> and you told me you'd never seen that stat, even though you admitted you knew that stat existed

No, I said I've never seen gained before and gave you the benefit of the doubt that it might be a localization thing. I never said I've never seen earned before.

>I wasn't wrong about anything but a word difference thats absolutely irrelevant and you felt the need to correct me on it
No, I honestly wanted to know what you were talking about because I'm interested in living weapon builds.

why are you doing this?

Not him but I kind of see whee he is coming from due to this post of yours. When he previously asked about amrita earned and you answered no and put emphasis on GAIN.

Don't bother farming them until you can kill one in 15 seconds or less.

Same, hoping we get her from Sanada.
No hope for Ouroboros since we already killed it and technically absorbed it. Don't know about Nurarihyon but I feel like DotN will be relatively isolated outside of Maria.

Higher difficulties increase the chances. Luck also affects drops.

Why point out the difference between the words if it doesn't matter and you still know what the other persons talking about, just with a different word that means the exact same thing, other than to be confrontation and just tell someone they're wrong about something irrelevant?

I can kill them quickly, but you gotta reset the mission to get them to respawn, and they're usually spread out.
