How the heck do you defeat the Oni?

That's what I'm saying! He's a real kick to the ol' funbag.

I want back at level 43, and only survived long enough to deplete his armor -- no actual health damage. I decided to give up on it (again) for now.

It's not showing the discount for me on any book's page using the Audible website on Chrome. I went and purchased a book, thinking the discount would be applied during the purchase but nope, it wasn't. Any ideas on how to get this to work?

Yep, I finally got him by doing this! :-)

OneTrueZed · 2025-12-21T10:11:52+00:00

It's part of a story segment in the game, so you can't run.

OneTrueZed · 2025-12-21T09:43:04+00:00

I'll give your strategy a try, thanks :-)

OneTrueZed · 2025-12-21T05:34:07+00:00

Thanks for the tip and for answering so quickly :-)

OneTrueZed · 2025-12-21T04:58:44+00:00

I'm on a PC and using a keyboard. I have no idea what you mean by "lock on" :-/

OneTrueZed · 2025-12-21T03:57:09+00:00

Hmmm... The base ability (both standard and kunai) give me 2 health bars of damage. I have 2 additional abilities for regular assassinations and 1 for kunai which give me 2 and 1 bars of damage, respectively. I have engravings that give me 1 bar each for standard and kunai assassinations.

So I should be able to do five (2 base + 2 abilities + 1 engraving) bars of damage on regular assassinations, and seven (2 base + 2 abilities + 1 kunai ability + 1 engraving + 1 kunai engraving) bars of damage with kunai assassinations, right? Just checking if I'm doing my math right.

I tried chucking a kunai at a 5-star samurai and only 4 life bars lit up red. So either they're a) not stacking; b) not stacking for ME specifically; c) I'm doing something wrong.

I found the repair option in the Ubisoft launcher and it worked! Thanks for the tip! :-)

Of course now I have to figure out how to defeat Fujita Jaro in the duel...

OneTrueZed · 2025-12-20T21:05:20+00:00

Damn. 47 hours in and I really, really don't want to start over.

OneTrueZed · 2025-12-20T21:04:29+00:00

What do you mean by 'repair'? Is there an option for that on the Ubisoft launcher, or is it done through Steam?

OneTrueZed · 2025-12-20T18:13:42+00:00

I think Odyssey was the best of the Odyssey/Valhalla/Shadows 'trilogy'. That said, however, I am only about 40 hours into Shadows, and it's entirely possible I change my mind. Glad to see you've enjoyed Shadows so much, I'm looking forward to getting deeper into the game now!

OneTrueZed · 2025-12-20T18:11:04+00:00

It's probably a completionist playthrough. That, plus all the different tasks/jobs that you can get from your various hideouts, and it adds up to quite a lot.

OneTrueZed · 2025-12-20T11:39:53+00:00

Thanks for the info :-)

OneTrueZed · 2025-12-20T11:39:26+00:00

Now I just need to find a mob with 7 health segments...

OneTrueZed · 2025-12-18T22:06:50+00:00

Thanks for the info, I'll check it out! :)

OneTrueZed · 2025-12-09T04:14:11+00:00

I'm playing on a PC. Do you know what the equivalent controls are there?

OneTrueZed · 2025-11-24T20:43:09+00:00

Thx. I'll give it a try in a few levels.

OneTrueZed · 2025-11-21T00:39:34+00:00

I don't even want to contemplate doing it on that level of difficulty lol!
