Nioh 2 |OT| Dark Soul Cores -- out now on PC, remaster available on PS5
- Thread starter Noema
- Start date
Finally done region 2 and man so much fun but fuck that end fight with reveant in that butterfly and viper side mission
Yeah...
I'm not really complaining, but, it's kind of weird how many bosses have attacks that do almost chip damage, compared to a regular skeleton spearman who can basically 2hko you...
Enjoying so far, reached chapter 5. Kinda getting redundant tho and boring.
I lost 1,5M because of a little cyclop (he absorded them and I died..).
I'm currently level 40, may level up to 50 as I can't equip some stuff.

Exactly. Kasha, for instance.

I get summoned instantly when doing Random Coop, there's definitely not a lack of people constantly summoning for help.
Just beat the final boss, real game begins now.
Overall great game and upgrade from Nioh 1. Honestly the part of the game I like the most is not having to play as William. Will sucks.
Also Ninja builds break the game lol. So many bosses I just melted from afar.

Oh so the boss is based on your own character? I was amazed that they looked exactly like me haha
Yup.
I can only imagine how entertaining it was for people who made their character look like an idiot to see that reveal.
Completed the game. Full spoilers.
Like the last time there is some cool story stuff but it is a lot of nonsense. Still, the ending I felt was strong even if the last last level was just mostly repeat. Seeing William and there being a conclusion to the DLC was nice. Also the final boss fight was pretty damn great and that amazing final animation ending with a shower of Divine Rarity gear felt amazing.
I for sure am going to dig into NG+ after I finish up some stuff in the base mode.
I'm a bit confused about the: "Builds" option. So you can save your builds but what does that mean? Like if I reset my stats and make a new core stat build and then save it into Slot 2, can I switch between them?

You didn't notice? O_o
Maybe it's because I re-created myself and, well, my face doesn't "fit" the game world remotely so there was no way it could have been coincidence xD but when I saw the mask fall and my character's face staring back I knew that's what they had done haha.

lol yeah, those who made Jokers, troll faces, etc. are gonna crack up.
I'm still not sure what the deal is with that though. The character is clearly the protagonist's half-sibling, but hardly a twin?
Guess I should keep playing, but I don't really expect this to make much sense 🤷♀️

Just finished the game a moment ago. I like it much more than the first one!
Too bad they heavily reuse some of the assets, including enemies and bosses, make it feels less fresh.

And just an hour after I made my last post I lost Amrita haha.
I could have just picked it up but one of those tallneck guys had been trying to snipe me so I tried to fight him and dude was like boss difficulty, harder than any of the other enemies and just destroyed through my Ki and then killed me.

I made a Japanese dude so I just thought it was a coincidence haha
Unfortunately I think the same. I'm the type of guy that plays every single revenant I see on a stage and I'm getting the same weapons and armor over and over again.
Are you talking about before, or after the Kato set? Because even with Fuma gear, Kunai "spam" doesn't really exist outside of boss fights, where the build rules. Through the levels themselves though, you're basically tissue paper, and you can't really abuse your limited resources to "kill everything" as some claim since Untouched Ninjutsu caps at 20% - 25% until the set.
I also have no idea what weapon you would actually use besides the Kusarigama, and I honestly don't like it at all in this game. Loved it in the previous, but it just feels way too slow here, and its best early damaging moves are at extremely close range. This build seems almost like the exact opposite of what I'm currently running, where I blow through levels, and then simply do alright when it comes to bosses. Although with the last boss I fought, all I had to do was push forward and hit triangle in high stance the entire time.
Everything indicates 160 being the item level cap. on +# values, I'd imagine it to be10 or 15, but that is just an educated guess.
Huh. If 160 is the cap. What's the incentive to go deeper into NG+? Obviously leveling but technically you can level sync.
I got a purple dual sword Level 170 so that's the cap.
Kalentan really it's just going up to +15 gears at that point and fine tune your equipments. Sooner or later it'll get uncapped to +30 and eventually we'll have the orange rarity.
Does anyone know when the game might get a price cut? Because of the Corona virus situation the last game we got here was Dragon Ballz Kakarot and nothing after it. We can't use visa to buy games so all we have is psn cards which are more expensive than physical games here!
Challenge? To see how high one can go? Plus the level sync has proved to be a bit of a potato. It does something, but doesn't really match going to a properly high level mission, challenge wise at least.
Oh, so it is the same thing as with Nioh 1 where you can rarely get drops up to 10 levels over the perceived cap, but this time they just increased both limits 10 levels. Interesting.
Alright. I did get some orange gear back in Nioh 1 but never got too deep into things.
So to get to +15 do you need to do you need to do 1 + 1 = 2 + 2 = 3 + 3 = 4 + 4 and so on the so forth? In the end you will need to get 2 weapons to +14 to combine?
Yes, but the higher you go, the better +# drops you can get. It won't be just +1s and +2 when you hit higher level missions.
Just got the proficiency grind left for the platinum... 30k more for the hatchets, then 120k for the switchglaive, plus 45k more ninjitsu and 224k more magic :/
Anyone gunning for it should start applying ninjitsu and magic weapon buffs to their weapons 24/7. The grind for those two is humongous.

Do the buffs only count if they hit or does it count if you just apply it
Proficiency. Familiarity is what you have for individual weapons and Divine armor.
Yeah, mistyped.
Only damage dealt counts iirc.
I forgot to add, but I need another 8 tea utensils too :(
It's ridiculous. I am more afraid of certain enemies (speer skeleton, Tengu) than most bosses. Also fuck every grab move. They always use them if they are almost dead, can't stagger them and then you are fucked.
if you use demon dance you have either delay the stance change or press the stance change twice, really annoying and makes flux with tonfa a pain.
I never really thought about how a lot of regular enemies have way more deadly attacks than bosses.
the bosses are all too easy, seems they nerfed their damage hard before release. it feels completely off to me.
Nope, just all the missions. It's pretty straightforward outside of unlocking one of the last side missions.
Nioh 2 for PlayStation 4 was the highest selling new release, debuting at 91,892 retail sales. In comparison, the original Nioh debuted at 75,477 sales in February 2017. (Gematsu)
I can't believe they haven't patched the free Small Spirit Stone + Large Spirit Stone you get every time you exhaust the dialogue with Tokichiro at the beginning of third mission in region 2. Just quit the mission and restart it to get them again. Just noticed it after beating the mission and then returning to it to see if you can still get it.
Oh well, time to go for region 3.

I am on my original play through, and I have a few +1 items equipped. What does this mean? I have done soul matching, etc. Thnaks.
Hey folks, does anyone know where to get the Smithing Text for the Sohaya Set? I need to upgrade my armor - I'm level 80 and mostly using armor in the 50s right now, but I can't craft new Sohaya Gear. And I NEED that life drain on melee kill passive.
I got it from some random Sohaya dude in one of the sub missions, somewhat unsurprisingly.
