>What should I do with the armour/weapons I don't want/use?
Check if you can donate any at the hidden teahouse for daily/clan rewards. Otherwise preferably disassemble them. You can also sell them to Tome or donate to Danjo at the Teahouse if you need a bit of extra glory or cash. Later on you'll be keeping them for Soul Matching, but don't worry about that until you get to NG+.

>The blacksmith is expensive, should I be using it?
You don't need to. Throughout WotSamurai and WotStrong you will constantly be finding better gear and builds don't matter so much. Soul Matching is expensive and intended for late game. If you do find a weapon you really like, try reforging it's effects using spirit iron, it's the cheapest and easiest way to improve a weapon.

>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.

1st for underappreciated spirits.

posting boring build

...

One thing i also hate about retarded powercreep is that you're sorta getting shoehorned into certain spirits. Yes, i know, yada yada git gud whatever, but the difference is too big to neglect it. Certain spirits being way too good while others are worthless doesn't help either.

What gear do I need for an axe spin 2 win build?

>bored
>go to /dsg/ and ask if people there have tried nioh
>get a warning

hmmm

A fucking cyclops

>sounds like a worse version
Can you state exactly what makes it worse? I can't see how having to memorize a boss' moveset and timing something like a full charge iai with the exact moment the boss hits you up close is somehow as skilless and boring as a LW build just mashing the square or triangle button.

...

>bops your head with a bullet and kills you before you can get up

...

Run away like a bitch and the shoot it in the head

>Can you state exactly what makes it worse?
>using pretty much same exact buffs as a critical LW build wouldve
>except you arent planning to use LW
>countering up from the front

also i like how you are planning to use iai strike for your build now, thats already been done before you mong, its not a hypothetical build at all. its not as if using iai strike requires much more skill at all than a LW build would

How do you fight the 4 armed guys in the last DLC?

>self promoting

fuck off project youre a garbage person

Go behind them and cut the arms off

Break the growing from his back. Do that and they're mincemeat.

blow up the crystal on the back, then they cannot do shit

Break the arms*

please respond

t. conquered

You seem to completely disregard what I've said faggot. Having to learn what the boss can do is already miles more sophisticated than using LW or, from what I can see, you shilling your iai videos. In case you've already forgotten (which you have) this build is supposed to center around the Last Great General so it also relies on however much of a damage boost you get from sustaining damage while TRADING. Not your paralyze bullshit or your nerfed dash attack damage x2/nullify damage shit.

Does ninjutsu scale with skill or dex at all?

What does that even mean you dumb weeb piece of shit? Go cry more about how the games dead and noones playing it cause crit LW crutch is gone you fucking loser.

skill to 99

>i have no actual comebacks other than to think this is a guy shilling his video
>trying to be a special snowflake and use a build thats already been done before and calling it new
>sry im too lazy to even prove you wrong at all


>playing nioh
>calling others a weeb
what did he mean by this

Dex is the primary stat that governs ninjutsu so yeah.

whats the heaviest set without a set bonus to put a grace on

One those tatenashi colorswap sets.

This is bait.

Ninjutsu scales with ninjutsu power (obviously) so you need dex and skill (dex is more important). Apparently 200 dex adds 10 more slots either.

karakawa i think

i've used suzaku from the very first moments to half way of wotn and i just swapped to kato and damn, i've been gimping myself quite a bit

Post your Wirriams

maaann battle of skill mode is probably the most balanced mode in the game

atleast weapon wise

you just wont get lazy onmyo and ninjitsu builds to deal with

it is but it as a shit sealed slot (CtDmagic)

suzaku is the noob trap

>shitty netcode
That balance doesn't mean anything if you're dying to a last second lag strike after dodging or blocking.

Don't live in Brazil then

stop living in a third world country

it was great early on so i never bothered to check out the others, which i should have done, way earlier

>DUDE IAI STRIKE LMAO

>LOL IMPLYING
>no one actually doing anything
How is this general still not dead?

Please respond ;_;

Is there a non critical more general use version? If not thats fine I appreciate the link user.

youtube.com/watch?v=wEr2auZ02OY

a) that's projectfag
b) it's very old and before the dlc sets/graces

It's fucking armor, who cares

a) thats irrelevant
b) the stuff thats in the video still exists and is viable for the build he wants

You could replace fanatics with armor of the exceptional and run suzaku so that when you get "killed" in it you will be still spinning with a lw enhancement on top and will have infinite ki. You could also try that one build anons were talking about last thread with the last great general set so you can run kato and not have to worry about enemies stealing your amrita for the suzaku proc.

...

fuck off project

youre bad and steal your content

got a link to that thread since op didnt link to it?

Previous thread:

>calling someone bad because they took your trash build and made it better

>better
>when 90% of his shit is crit LW garbage and he ACTUALLY cried in the comments on his videos that team ninja killed his fun and the game and noone plays it anymore

crit LW was pretty much the best build so what i posted wasnt wrong. what are you trying to say?

my little user cant be this retarded

>i only play worse builds with bad damage output, this makes me superior to you!

When did I say this?

>crit LW garbage
>hating a build that was objectively the best in the game for no reason other than being a contrarian snowflake

>user continues to pull things out of his ass: the post

Get a room, faggots.

Jesus, and you guys are worried PC will ruin the threads?

so you admit that crit LW was the best then. there isnt reason to call it garbage unless you dislike the build for the reason i stated then

threads have been ruined for a long time, it should have stayed dead

That's not how that works.

okay, please elaborate why youre so butthurt then

I never was youre the one that made it about some weird complex justifying your crit LW was the hottest memes this side of the west, I simply said project was trash and made trash content that he stole.

you were the one who brought it up in the first place lmao. i just posted a spin2win build for some user and you got pissy about it

>tfw too addicted to deflect projectiles
Send help, killing ranged faggots with their own projectiles is too good

Whatever floats your boat dude.

You don't need help user, you're doing gods work.

Does using the book of reincarnation get rid of Hayabusa's flame art? I respecced and suddenly it's gone. What's the minimum dexterity required to use it?

its near the bomb ninjutus

if thats your way of admitting your retardation i'll take it

no, its just clustered in the ninjusu tree, near the skills that give you makibishis. all you have to do to use it is just pump some skill points into it again

t. project

>tfw fighting saika

>i cant do anything but make myself look like an idiot

t. brainlet

Everything you obtain from hayabusa stays forever, in fact i suspect they give you free points by auto-learning the skills and you can respec and reclaim points if by whatever reason you don't want his busted ass skills

well tehres no talking to someone whos heads so far up their own ass that they only know whats inside of them so I just figured id keep memeing you Veeky Forums style since you keep replying

>some inane green bullshit

t. thing I dont like

>i was only pretending to be retarded

>t. thing I dont like

thats ironic coming from you, whos so bootyblasted over someones build videos

>thread is already worse than what PC will bring

>user missuses a meme while claiming superiority

never once said or implied merely pretending, you're just seeing what you wanna see

t. fake brainlet

I sure hope someone will datamine the shit out of this game, how the fuck i'm supposed to know that taking spirit with fire bonus and gyokuto will somehow like triples the damage output fire dragon does? Are there any fire boosts outside hand cannons?

no, pretty sure you are actually retarded. thats not a meme at all

ogress mask
get lucky with accessories
some spirits boost fire damage

t. becoming stupider by the post

I'm actually laughing at this

so are you telling me you are looking into a mirror right now and laughing at your reflection?

pretty weak man

surely you could have come up with something better than that

t. reflection

So if i want BOMBS set, i want:
Iga with ogress mask or hayabusa
fox+gyokuto
TWDx2
Whatever throwing boosts i can get
Throwing speed for at least normal kayaku-dama
Anything else?

its better than anything youve been able to vomit up, ingame or within the confines of this thread

Not much. Bombs got shit on so the only other thing is maybe recurrent damage dealt.

nice baseless accusation home slice

...

Devs really love their ninja gaiden with hayabusa set being just as fucking strong and the skills he drops. Shame we didn't get that broken ass jump slash with wide as fuck hitboxes.

Flying swallow would be too broken and 1kats don't deserve good skills apparently.

Just to make sure: If I use Samurai Locks or whatever to get additional skill points, these will be refunded as well when I use a Book of Reincarnation, yes?

Nope, better spec right the first time.
