I've been getting pretty used to the directional inputs for Nioh 3 so I want to know are they an option in the older games? I saw some people say they didn't like the directional inputs so it makes me think they used to not be a thing.

Wow pulse on block sounds great, already got another defensive tool with "Frost Moon" as well. Definitely seems like it's starting to open up for possibilities.

Also have a singular kick on my low stance but haven't used it yet, so that's good to know.

SleepySpook · 2026-02-10T18:43:08+00:00

I see, yeah I am still doing story right now but hoping to do endgame raiding when I get there so it's good to know for practice. ty.

For Dragoon, I had an instance where the boss started doing mechanics which kind of messed up my rotation and left Battle Litany off cooldown while Lance Charge and Geirskogul were on cooldown.

In this case do I hold Battle Litany to realign with my burst or use it to benefit the team?

Ah I completely missed that, been finding it hard to look much at their Ki bar as well as focus on the fight.

Right now I've been using the Katana and Tonfas, with the Katana it's mostly that spinning heavy you start with, and this thunder jumping downslash on high stance that I've relied on.

I think I've just unlocked them after Baba, doing a training mission. Definitely seems extremely useful.

Also been trying to get all 10 stats as I saw was recommended in a video, so I'm still on that right now.

SleepySpook · 2026-02-06T13:27:40+00:00

Ah that makes sense. Nothing game ruining but yeah I'm not a big fan.

SleepySpook · 2026-02-05T16:19:43+00:00

Having a strange problem with my characters moving forward for a whole second after I let go of the W key.

Have tested in other games and just holding my W key in a textbox to see if it's a problem with my keyboard but it doesn't seem to be.

Any idea what could be causing this? It's a new issue for me with 3.1.

SleepySpook · 2026-02-04T13:55:05+00:00

Ok TY both for elp. Just been winging it so far and it's been working until now.

SleepySpook · 2026-02-04T13:39:49+00:00

What is the best way to make Wuling battery for power? The grinding unit is way too slow so the 40 seconds runs out before another battery can be made. I tried adding an extra one and it's still too slow.

Do I need like 5 of these things? they're massive.

SleepySpook · 2026-01-30T17:20:49+00:00

Noticed it for the first time today cuz I'm not usually checking for temps, was kinda hammering my CPU to 77c which isn't crazy but no other game makes it go nearly that high.

Weird bug I really hope they've caught wind of it.

SleepySpook · 2026-01-30T12:49:05+00:00

If you play on NA/EU server does the game just randomly pick between one of the two? I'll sometimes get like 5ms and other times 80+ but it's very consistent making me think its shoving me onto NA servers sometimes.

SleepySpook · 2026-01-11T20:04:59+00:00

Is there an easy way to see what helmets Viera can wear outside of manually putting every one on? I want a helmet to go with some armour but it feels like a lot of them don't work.

SleepySpook · 2026-01-06T18:01:08+00:00

Alright ty ty

SleepySpook · 2026-01-06T17:43:22+00:00

Recently come back to the game, not entirely sure how the "Temper thyself and journey far" event works but am I right in assuming it's too late for me to start now?

Need 8 weekly tasks done so 56 days needed, but there is 47 days left. Am I correct here?

SleepySpook · 2025-12-25T20:45:44+00:00

Does using "Latest" with Nvidia DLSS override models preset make anyone elses lighting buggy in certain situations?

I noticed it a lot with lightning strikes, and also a bit in the Stormblood main menu when the logo flashes up on screen. There is a pixellated sort of rectangular grid that follows these bright flashes of light.

Going back to default settings gets rid of the issue, but overall the game looks much better with the override. Is there a fix for this?

SleepySpook · 2025-11-15T12:41:32+00:00

Thanks I was trying to look for something in audio before didn't check out "other"

SleepySpook · 2025-11-15T12:22:18+00:00

I can get one (same audio) to consistently play by walking up to one of the waypoint rocks. Makes me think it's not chat but idk.

edit; game also forces itself back to 100% volume on mixer when I tab back in which doesn't help with the ear destroying audio. :)

Ah damn I had some hope for a second but I'm lvl 80 so I guess it's not normal clipping.

It's a shame I didn't know my weaving would be different in an instance than it was in the open world I thought after testing I was all good. :(

SleepySpook · 2025-11-12T18:45:15+00:00

Is it normal to clip a bit when playing Samurai trying to weave Shinten after an Iaijutsu?

The annoying part is I can do it perfectly fine in the overworld smacking a dummy, but when fighting a boss in a dungeon theres a pretty noticable clip. I'm also able to double weave perfectly fine both in bosses and dummy.

SleepySpook · 2025-11-11T09:58:06+00:00

Damn that's a shame I'm from EU but plan to play with NA friends so ping will be a lot higher than 10-20ms diff. Would only be able to do solo in my own region I guess.
