    Gave up at the 3rd boss fight, life is too short to be dealing with this .. like the game, but the randomness of the boss fights are ridiculous..

    Hi All.

    I'm on mission 103 Sekigahara with a first build of 93. I must be near end game... Why do I see some builds online at 500+?

    some guys are outputting 7k damage per strike when I'm averaging 500 per strike with a purple staff with 565 attack...

    what am I missing?!

    There was an infinite XP glitch in a previous version of the game, lots of people used it to get up to very very high levels.

    There are divine weapons (green) once you finish the main game. These can also be upgraded up to +5 for maximum output.

    Thanks. So divine weapons are for ng+ or new missions unlocked?

    Finally got around to finishing this last night, I must say the last 8 bosses were very easy compared to others in the game, took down 100 Eyes in less than two minutes on my first try, I think I finished up around level 115 and went the Heart/Magic route.

    I enjoyed the game, the shallow story ( the historical aspects were nice though ) and lack of enemy variety, coupled with the annoying inventory system were the only flaws, the combat was very satisfying, the environments were interesting and the game felt fresh till the end, looking forward to the sequel as Team Ninja like to make multiple entries in their franchises.

    You can swap between NG and NG+ at will once you have finished the main story.

    It's changing the mission difficulty from the map screen at will rather than a proper NG+.

    It's definitely worth the price but yeah, the rage will be strong with this game. :D

    Just had a boss kick my arse for a bit, infuriating as some of his moves means you're fecked if he starts, beat him and I think the gratification of going foware outweighs the rage.... just!!

    The first fight with Hino-Enma was the only time I came close to Souls rage, plain sailing after that with every other boss.

    Finished it. There were a few other bosses that really pissed me off but like souls it was a matter of patience and figuring out their attack pattern. I did look up a few YouTube videos for a bit of guidance. Mostly the same as what I was doing anyway.

    I much prefer the wandering about anyway than the boss battles.

    I'm the tiniest bit disappointed Date Masamune isn't voiced by Kazuya Nakai, if only because now he unlikely to tell us to "Put ya guns on!" before we go fight oni. :pac:

    Yes, it's not hugely similar either but if you like the Souls, you'll enjoy it.

    So I finally got round to getting this. Finding it much harder than the From Software games. Initially it was grand then I got to Hino Enma I think she was called. Batgirl. Took me ages to get by her. First few times I took little or no health off her. Slowly progressed to half her health before finally besting her. Reason I think it's harder than Souls is there is practically no room for error. Get caught in one combo and you are brown bread. Can be frustrating. You really need to pay close attention to your stamina bar. It can be very slow filling back up. In saying that I'm enjoying it for the most part.

    Yeah, it reminds me of bloodborne though, Hino Enma is like the Gascoigne of Nioh. She appears completely over whelming at first, She is one of the hardest bosses in the game, likely because you're at low level and dont have as many skills at hand to use, your knowledge of the game is also minimal so you dont know yet what magics/ninjitsu's are useful.

    When do you start getting magic etc? Also, does the gameplay, i.e.enemies change at all? So far it seems to be the same enemies albeit more of them. I'm currently in the poison caves and at the centipede boss. Had one go at it then stopped. Apart from the poison it seems OK, managed to get it down to about half health bar. But to be honest I'm getting a little bored due to the aforementioned enemies and the very sameish gameplay throughout. Also I had been getting 7 elixirs at the shrine but since starting the new zone it's started giving me 3 which sucks.

    I downloaded this game on release but didn't like it because I felt it was too hard . I'm stuck with it so may as well try to get back into it . I have finished dark souls 1 to 3 blood borne and the witcher 3 and all its dlc content . Surely I can best this game. Would appreciate some advice in starting weapon and where to power up stats at the start

    Cant recall when exactly, its called onymo or something like that, and then theres ninjitsu, they are more of a support skill set to your weapon builds.

    With regards to your elixirs, they are dependent on the lil green dudes you find, some of them increase your capacity in elixirs. So when you start each new zone, they will drop back down until you find the relevant cute lil bastards to bump it back up.

    As for weapons, go with what you prefer to use, all are good. But in terms of whats i found to be the most useful/highest damage it would have to be the two mini swords, followed by the ball and chain rope thingy. I found there move set the easiest to counter most bosses. In saying that however, you can kick just as much ass with the sword/spear also, just maybe not as fast.

    There was a skill you could get with the dual swords that just made everything roll face, im surpised it wasnt nerfed, however i havent placed any of the DLC's yet so it could be all different now. :pac:

    You can, easy, it seems difficult at first but the more you progress and the more familiar you get with everything the more manageable the game becomes, alot of the content becomes roll face with the odd wall. But i loved it start to finish, rich in content and likeable characters

    Just picked this up on PC and im up to the second boss which was also in the beta test on the PS4. I remember during the beta that the loot got from fighting Revenant's was super good compared to standard enemy drops and the Revenants themselves where pushovers for the most part. So this time around i'm not fighting any of them and im gonna collect all my gear from enemies. Would i be gimping myself in this way? Is there items that can only be got from Revenants like in the Dark Souls series?

    Playing with the Tonfa's and the Nodachi at the moment. I was tempted to go with super heavy armour and a battleaxe and lots of HP but i can't help but feel armour/defensive stats are useless. Most Yokai 2 shot me and im wearing medium armour. Is it possible to get to a point where i could be considered "tanky"? Would be fun to go against the grain of what the game wants me to be

    What really frustrates me about about this game is on the map area you have a choice in what destination you choose a lot of the time but once that area is chosen you cant get out of it until it's completed. I'm in this arena type area now and I'm stuck . There's no shrine so I can't even level up. I can manage to get to the Cyclops bad guy but since my elixrs are gone from killing the previous enemies I can't kill him. The area is called the garden of the underworld

    You get something that allows you to quit the mission. Think it's called a fragrant branch or something. One type loses your xp and one let's you keep it. I'll see if I can find the proper name.

    Edit its himirogi branch and also a travel amulet.
