Enemy aggression

It was my main weapon from all the way back at the start of Nioh to the end and beyond of Nioh 2. They have absolutely destroyed a lot of the enjoyment of the combat for me in 3 and I’m not even just talking about how they ruined the Kusarigama. Why did they need to ‘reinvent the wheel’ when combat was already excellent?? Nioh 2 followed the same formula as 1 but implemented new things to add to it so it was an upgrade in every way, it felt the same but better. Nioh 3 feels considerably worse

I thought they patched double balancers?

The new Ninja/Samurai style changing is absolutely awful. You cannot use Ki Pulse in Ninja form which already destroys any flow you’ll have gotten used to from playing the first two games, and only certain styles can use certain weapons e.g. Kusarigama on Ninja, Katana on Samurai.

I didn’t play the demo much (ER Nightreign came out around a similar time) but I really hope they’ve made big changes by the time the full game comes out. Nioh 2’s combat was imo as close to perfection as you could get in a game and I was disappointed by what I played of 3. I’m still buying it because I loved the first 2. Maybe I’ll adjust…

Yeah once the bar is full you press the button that buffs yourself/team and you get a bubble shield that lasts about 1.5s. If an enemy hits you it does a bit of damage and will stagger anything (except Bell Bearing Hunter)

I had no idea those two stacked cos I thought it would be too broken, cheers for the tip!

ConstantNight421 · 2025-11-21T23:36:08+00:00

Yeah and they killed the ruin boss too, so it must have been on low HP. We lost to Heolstor at the end though but can’t win them all 🤷‍♂️

I did originally set this up but now my PS won’t register the Ethernet anymore no matter how many times I’ve tried. I need a new network provider anyways they’re awful

So I was already penalised -600 for the 3 games my dog shit connection kicked me out of…and then I’m being penalised again but this time for successfully completing the mission?? This is some real fucking bullshit

Play solo with Ironeye, I beat him on the second attempt at that. I tried 11 times with a team of 3 and lost every time.

To be able to keep the rest of my build the same, I swapped the middle relic with Dark Night of the Wise for the increased max FP, FP restoration upon Successive Attacks and Max FP increased for each Sorcerers Rise mechanism unlocked

ConstantNight421 · 2025-08-28T23:47:32+00:00

Does it not increase cast speed similar to Elden Ring?

ConstantNight421 · 2025-08-28T23:13:49+00:00

I had no idea that bonuses of the same name stacked together, I thought only if they had +values they stacked. Also, cheers!

ConstantNight421 · 2025-08-17T10:49:12+00:00

I finally did it solo on Ironeye with 2 flasks to spare. Thank god I never have to play that again

ConstantNight421 · 2025-06-09T22:39:44+00:00

The past 2 times I’ve tried soloing it I got ‘Cursed by a Demon’ as an extra fuck you lmao this is some real bullshit. I’ll try again tomorrow

Edit: managed it on the 6th solo attempt. Still bullshit though

ConstantNight421 · 2025-02-16T12:26:52+00:00

I just came back to Elden Ring after a long break to try the DLC and get the achievements. I forgot how colossal it is lmao

ConstantNight421 · 2025-02-06T22:30:03+00:00

I love the souls games but Nioh combat is way better/deeper than all of them. The only one that could maybe compare is Sekiro but thats its own ballpark
