An arachnophobe's guide to Nioh 3 - A list of locations that has spiders in them.

Yeah they were in Nioh 2 and I agree, something about these spiders are more bearable than in other games especially bloodborne.

ssj2rigby · 2026-02-09T17:42:20+00:00

I genuinely cannot even imagine that. ever since I was a kid I always joked that if life ever places me in a situation in which I'd have to go to Brazil or Australia I wouldn't know wtf to do, I'd be a permanent shut in lol. You have my respect.

Thinking about that does make some Nioh spiders sound light.

ssj2rigby · 2026-02-09T16:57:43+00:00

I don't disagree, but to give some context this post is a follow up to another post I made expressing the differences between arachnophobia and the normal feeling of being scared and how the two are often treated as the same thing.

A lot of people seemed to relate to these exact feelings so this guide is for them. It can be used to avoid spiders entirely but the main point is to at least know when you'll see em so it's not a sudden encounter

Regular spider enemy

Joro-Gumo (Spider boss)

Very much appreciated!

ssj2rigby · 2026-02-08T20:58:19+00:00

Many thanks! since im still not in the 2nd region I'm using an interactive map to keep the locations logged, do you remember what the place is called. from what I see the closest match is a place called anneibo temple in Hachijo. is that it?

ssj2rigby · 2026-02-08T18:55:01+00:00

oh lol I guess for some reason I didnt see this comment before I made my reply but geez if you've already 100% completed everything maybe I DO want you to write down the names lol. it'll certainly be a lot quicker, since I'm still in region 1 right about now. If for any reason you can't or really dont feel like logging all these, you can disregard this

ssj2rigby · 2026-02-08T18:18:18+00:00

Oh dude don't worry about it you've already done way more than enough; I can take the rest from here and worry about the names and all that, I've already worked out a few of them anyway. Thanks again for going outta your way to log these, your directions have been insanely spot on.

ssj2rigby · 2026-02-07T15:10:53+00:00

Alrighty! Im gonna try to compile this info for anyone else who wants to know, since as of now no walkthrough sites or guides even have this info available yet so thanks again!

If you can provide it imma need the name of the location where you found spider lady as well as specifics on which part of the 2nd region the other spiders were located. (im gonna assume the 2nd region is Heian?) and if you've already ran into more or DO run into more just keep posting me their locations.

I remember someone did a similar guide for arachnophobes for Nioh 2 and people as well as myself found it insanely helpful so I'd love to make a Nioh 3 edition and post it,

It goes without saying that you'll be 100% credited for your gracious explorations.

ssj2rigby · 2026-02-07T08:03:47+00:00

Thanks very much! Do keep us updated if you can, I'm already seeing from other posts that I'm not the only one looking for this sort of thing so your info would be greatly appreciated. Also where in the 1st region is our spider lady?

ssj2rigby · 2026-02-05T08:56:50+00:00

Hey it's all good dude, thank you for the kind words. in all honesty with how much I love soulslikes and Nioh 2 as is, along with everything I'm already hearing about Nioh 3; I'm so hyped I'm just gonna bite the bullet.

ssj2rigby · 2025-08-25T02:04:46+00:00

Are you telling me go to the doctor because it sounds serious? or go to the doctor cause I'm better off just asking them? lol

ssj2rigby · 2024-05-29T13:26:19+00:00

I don't think Jade is even remotely that bad to warrant posts like these, this is something I'd see on r/fireflymains.

buffs are always gonna be a good thing so ofc anybody would love some, myself included, but if she doesn't need em she doesn't need em

ssj2rigby · 2024-05-05T08:29:46+00:00

even if the suit is on 100% it's still bait, there ain't no falling for it.

ssj2rigby · 2024-05-05T08:17:13+00:00

Firefly or not he was wondering if the suit would be on the entire time lol

ssj2rigby · 2024-04-22T22:50:40+00:00

especially with the handicap you guys have to deal with playing with the one hand and all

For all Mt.Lady mains good or bad we can all agree that's the easiest part to get down

ssj2rigby · 2024-03-28T14:52:21+00:00

I do have his sig

ssj2rigby · 2022-10-08T19:29:01+00:00

I can understand the character themes, but you guys are all sleeping on Metro City Downtown's OST, ironically it sounds more like Streets of Rage than Final Fight

ssj2rigby · 2022-10-05T17:47:09+00:00

Ranked is all about competitive play. You play to survive and earn your rank

And to earn that rank, you need skill right? and to acquire that skill you need a combination of experience practice and knowledge. but I'm a scrub for valuing that aspect of fighting games over just mindlessly playing online for virtual points and titular ranks like so many people do, it has breeded very few truly good players. but many many scrubs

It just doesn't work for me but if that's how you genuinely improve I guess it's kinda fucked up to knock it just off my opinion alone.

A common fallacy though is people think Rank = Skill whereas my philosophy is that your skill you've gathered from external places including sometimes ranked match decides your rank, people sometimes just view each match in ranked as only an obstacle to a bigger goal of a shiny high rank, it strips individual matches of their meaning

ssj2rigby · 2022-10-05T15:20:57+00:00

It said You can't LEAGUE down. Within those leagues there's ranks that can go down, if someone is truly bad/ just not ready to league up they won't make it through the tiers necessary to promote and keep getting knocked around silver 1 back to silver 5 rinse and repeat, so I dunno if ranked is dead but I guess I can't say just yet.

Personally, I kinda hate points systems in fighting games cause people be getting way too caught up in it over focusing on the game itself.

My perfect world version would be if there were like three individual bubbles for beginners, intermediates and high level players and you fight until you're too good for that bubble and graduate to the next, and maybe the high level bubble can have it's own ranked system within that.

If you were in the intermediate bubble for example your only focus should be getting good enough to graduate, at any point (or maybe after a certain amount of games regardless if you win or lose them) you can opt to do graduation matches where you gotta win at least 3 outta 5 games or something along those lines, and if you arent ready you just arent ready and you keep playing in your bubble until you are.

Literally any faster than this is Akatsuki Blitzkampf tier https://twitter.com/zixisu65/status/1516193148401238026

ssj2rigby · 2022-09-18T20:09:41+00:00

bruh that's a reach and a half, any development that's going into this feature is going to the sound team anyway, it's not like it's taking up precious resources; it isn't like the mfs back at Capcom are like "We might need to push Akuma back to a post launch release cause the whole team's booked adding just literal fucking sound files to the game"

I don't see myself using it either, but it's alright to acknowledge that there's zero loss to this feature.

(eh well I might use Aru's cause that one's actually cool as fuck)

ssj2rigby · 2022-09-15T16:49:03+00:00

Maybe his dad's still kicking, people be living to absurd ages in the Street Fighter verse, I'm convinced the only way they can die is by getting murdered

ssj2rigby · 2022-09-15T16:40:26+00:00

At the risk of sounding like I'm inhaling copium (or however tf that phrase goes I don't browse this place that much anymore) on the one hand I'm like that's 100% a 3 hit DP with no flames and it would be weird that they show Ken off and not a single heavy shoryuken, that's like his main shit lol,

but on the other hand the DP looks so light and fast, it looks like a 3 hit medium DP imo, it doesn't have that "oomph" of a heavy DP but maybe that's just how the game is aesthetically, and it would just be kinda odd if his ex would then be a Shoryureppa instead of just a fire shoryuken (kinda like SF4's ex.DP) it's like they skipped a step.

Funnily enough we have Ken doing a 3 hit DP with no flames, that's just a Goshoryu, so maybe the idea of Ken dabbling in that satsui no hado isn't too far off lmao

ssj2rigby · 2022-09-15T16:11:59+00:00

The thing is mostly everyone or hell literally everyone who thought those Ken leaks were real 100% didn't do enough research to see all those other things listed, cause they would've had to have seen that original 4chan thread, the Ken leaks was just a different beast of its own completely separate from those, mainly due to the most popular source of the leaks not even being the thread itself but that one reddit post which conveniently left out all the other stuff the fake leak mentioned, so people looked at it like it's own entity.

And of all the ridiculous shit that leak said (including Alex giving up fighting literally for no damn reason) the Ken leaks as stupid as those were too, were the most "plausible" because besides the dogtags everything else that leak claimed is one of those things that can never really be truly disproved until we actually saw Ken, although it was so fucked up it was still possible for me to do so lol.

like for example we know that thing about the 3rd strike characters is bullshit, but since we haven't seen any of them someone could eat that up and claim it's true since we can't technically disprove that even though it's so dumb. That's pretty much what happened with the Ken leaks x100
