>What should I do with the armor/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 armor and weapons when you defeat them. Very rarely they will drop a smithing text which allows you to forge their armor/weapon.

>Which clan should I join? (clan unlocked through progression)
Whichever one has a bonus that you think will benefit your build the most.

How do you BTFO Raven Tengus?

I can kill them reliably but it's always such a long drawn out fight of chipping at their health. Killing enemies that aren't bosses shouldn't take this long

So what's the deal with these feathered cunts? Their moveset is pretty predictable, it's not hard to dodge every single one of their attacks, the grab is almost impossible to get caught off guard by. They do a lot of damage but so does everyone in this game. So why is every encounter with them such a nightmare? Is it just poise?

block, block, flowing shadow

they're just annoying and tedious i guess

That coupled with the fact they are one few yokais that don't have a direct weak point to shatter.

Thunderstorm
Geyser

One cast of thunderstorm at the right distance guarantees a shock proc, might take two casts of geyser for the saturated proc
