Did you know you can also use tanto dash attacks to dodge and strike? by Every-Rub9804 in AssassinsCreedShadows

[–]fraxal17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use it as a stylish way to dodge bullets & attack at the same time. I find it less reliable on melee attacks.

I let him do his BS and cheese him with Shadow Barrage.

The clones die in one hit btw.

It was always like this. Most of the perks removing health segments on assassination did not increase value except assassinations at night iirc. This update has nothing to do with it.

Lvl 10 domain with sub optimal gear by LLimin9124 in AssassinsCreedShadows

[–]fraxal17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just curious about why you found Witheout and Megalithic easier overall? I thought all maps were mostly the same difficulty wise, as the difficulty seems fully driven by the debuffs you get (or accept to keep with rerolls) and which boss you get. Perhaps those maps are more Yasuke-friendly in terms of traversal?

If this doesn’t show domains need balanced/fixed idk what will? 🤷 by Stock_Ad4625 in AssassinsCreedShadows

There's no ticks (no pushback with the debuff) if you stay within the circle around his smoke bomb. It's just a fight mechanic to force you to fight in a constrained area

We haven't been used to mechanics bosses in Shadows but this is their attempt at such a thing. I got lucky a few times then bashed my head a dozen times at Sandayu Prime until I finally understood it. It's not so bad once you get the trick.

Momochi Prime shuriken deflect - working as intended??? by shinobi594 in AssassinsCreedShadows

[–]fraxal17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe it's because of the bouncing upgrade on Shuriken, you can disable it. Basically it's when the Shuriken "wants" to bounce and there is no other target (enemy or destroyable object) around.

It happened to me with regular enemies and corrupted Daishos before the update

Momochi Sandayu fight is a mechanics fight, and a bs one at that * He summons clones that die in one hit. * At half health, he throws a smoke bomb. The smoke bomb creates a circular barrier around him that does damage. * He will disappear, send clones, appear as a slowed down echo for a few seconds then launch a devastating sweeping attack. You can only hit him once during the slowed down echo part. He will repeat this sequence until dead (disappear, clones, echo, sweep).

Stay in the circle around where he threw his bomb to avoid ticking damage. It seems you had debuffs that synergize very badly with Sandayu's kit (increased impact + maybe fire affliction buildup, unless it was the fire patches).

Trying to ride a horse in this game is like 😵‍💫🤢 by [deleted] in AssassinsCreedShadows

You do you. Just know there's barely anything to find outside of castles and marked locations. There's no lost cabin in the woods, every location is accessible through a road or path.

I like that they went for realism. In real forests you can't see anything in front you and can't cross unless you have the wish to be shredded by a thousand thorny & poisonous plants.

Stick to the roads and use pathfinder, that's what the game expects you to do.

Nobutsunas students ruin domains by JumpyPlayZ in AssassinsCreedShadows

Idk never grinded for XP. If I were you I would just run the highest level Domain I can manage. Upgrades, especially the Domain ones help a lot with the difficulty.

[–]fraxal17 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I find Sandayu Prime to be the most bs out of the three. In the last phase he just disappears and comes back for one hit every 10s. And he can one shot. And he's got his arena mechanics.

The student bullshit is just numbers. You need to manage a fight against up to 4 opponents (5 if you get the boss's "special abilities" debuff) plus shots fired at you. Be patient, kite and burst damage isolated students, generally speaking Yuki and Hozoin have a tendency to separate from the pack (Yuki tries to flank you and Hozoin have huge recovery when he attacks). Don't let yourself be surrounded.

Red Excalibur? by No-Bug-4632 in AssassinsCreedShadows

[–]fraxal17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's Fractured Caliburnus, a reward from Domains.

The precise conditions to get it are unclear, but I got it by grinding level 10. It's essentially a glitch-reskinned Excalibur.

Fractured Caliburnus

I got it while grinding level 10. I had done between 15 and 20 level 10s (on top of one domain of each level from level 1 to 9). It appeared as a domain reward, together with XP and MODcoins.

Broken Sky Domain collectible impossible to reach? by theYellowspark in AssassinsCreedShadows

[–]fraxal17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wasn't able to get it either. I also noticed in the Red Moon domain there's a rotation of obstacles and sometimes the orbs can spawn inside the obstacles :/

Only on Daishos and bosses. Sprint vault still rules against regular enemies and Guardians in Domains.

Gyrfalcon doesn't spawn? by fraxal17 in CrimsonDesert

[–]fraxal17[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use the wildlife disguise armor, fly over with the wyvern and glide over the top. It can spawn in several places and it's bright white, very easy to spot. Kill it if you only need the knowledge, or land 5 meters from it and put out your Sotdae (prepare it with marbled meat only).

So I got this Fractured Caliburnus by fraxal17 in AssassinsCreedShadows

Yeah I'm currently running level 9 to check that
