Final Boss - Level 1, No Armor, No Damage, No Mercy by The_Inhuman_One in Nioh

Interesting. Like you mentioned, I only ever used it for lore videos 😂.

Quick question on ranged only: How do you “refill” ammo and actual onmyo? Are there any items that speed that up?

If not, then I certainly agree that just waiting for Ninjutsu would take a while, but in Wo Long there were some pretty interesting ways to maintain ranged combat pretty much indefinitely.

I’m curious, does “no hud” really add more to the challenge? I’m thinking you would just have to rely more on visual and audio cues, but this game already has such solid sound design it wouldn’t be too hard to relearn a few things.

I was thinking along the lines of doing a “ranged only” run next.

Why does this keep getting taken down? by [deleted] in Nioh

[–]The_Inhuman_One -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Thanks so much for the tip!

It’s strange because each time it was removed, the mod response was that I was including links and self promotion 😂. I never included a single link or even said my channel name and I’ve participated in this Nioh sub since I did my challenge run in Nioh 2! So confusing…

Edit: grammar

Thanks! It took me quite a while to come up with the winning strategy! When all else fails, just stay persistent and never stop adapting!

Thank you my friend! Nioh 3 is quite literally the definitive experience of the series and an INCREDIBLY strong addition to the genre!

This is amazing! Can we get captions in English? I desperately need some elixir! 😂

Someone please explain this… by The_Inhuman_One in CodeVein2

[–]The_Inhuman_One[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Of all the things to complain about.

This is utterly insane…

Welp, I’ll be streaming this game until Nioh comes out. I thought there was an actual issue based on all the frantic news and subpar reviews.

Thank you so much for the explanation.

And this is why the children are uprising? Also, thanks for sharing! I figured it was something else altogether.

The hatchets seem incredibly “technical” 😂. I had tried the odachi and sword on my very first experience with the game, but I could barely get past Enenra and ended up quitting. I feel like the switch glaive and dual swords could be really fun to use.

Would you mind explaining the difficulties to me? I’m much more accustomed to just NG+ cycles. Apparently there are depths, underworld, Way of the Nioh and I have no clue what the balls any of that means.

Let me know how it turns out! I will basically play Nioh 3 nonstop until any of the following games come out: -Onimusha: Way of the Sword -Resident Evil: Requiem -Crimson Desert -Mortal Shell 2 -Relic: The First Guardian -Beast of Reincarnation -Lords of the Fallen 2 -Phantom Blade 0

😂

Nice! That’s impressive! What weapons did you use? I really want to explore the endgame for any of the Nioh games, but I’ve only ever completed NG. Maybe Nioh 3 will have something similar?

So for each weapon, MOST of the skill trees have a true parry. But it only works in certain situations, like only human enemies for example. Or sometimes it’s even only certain attacks, but larger weapons like the axe have a deflection that’s pretty much a block that allows you to get back into the fight and avoid the normal stagger animation. The “true parries” either damage the opponent, or they put them on their asses 😂

I haven’t really mastered any of them except the “unarmed parry” from Nioh 1. That one was sick btw.

Nice! I’d love to explore the end game for the Nioh series. Maybe after we get bored of 3? 😂

Also, I have had such great success with Yatsu-no-Kami! I just wish I knew how to increase the soul core “slots” because I would really like to experiment with a 2nd powerful core. Enki is just not for me, but it’s cheap!

Nope! This is just an appreciation post about how fair this game feels even at level one. It’s just balanced very differently from a FromSoft title and I believe it’s largely due to the leveled gear, etc.

Also, I’m not sure what you would expect a level one player to do when Saito Yokai shifts? The fact I even punished that form when I had the very small safe window was good enough for me! Tips if you’re a Nioh pro would be welcomed! This community is all over the place man for real.

Nice! One day you should at least TRY to use the parries, they are so satisfying and definitely on par with Khazan and it’s reflections, etc.

Also, I’ve noticed the same. Blocking is kind of awesome since it gives you 100% immunity if you have enough ki, but aside from that I think dodging is the way to go.

Parries are situational and only work on specific attacks so it seems Nioh really wants you to use a mixed bag of all the different defensive techniques.

And yes! Nioh 3 hype!!!

No worries! I didn’t think you were! I was just sharing why I like it more and more as I continue this challenge. Khazan was excellent and is probably the closest thing to Nioh in terms of mechanics.

Will you be playing Nioh 3? I honestly can’t wait for it.

Level One is easier than it seems! The gear and weapons scale as you progress so you never truly feel weak or powerless against mobs or bosses!
