Nurikabe ( wall ) always has revenant sword nearby, which will say "xyz was slain for his *color* behaviour. This eleminates one gesture from guessing, and let's you always get the correct one in 2 guesses.
4:47 The benefits from passives in other weapon trees is huge and many new players don't realize this. Many of the other Nioh tips videos don't explain this, by and far this is the best tips video on Nioh, great job.
I'm 32 and only just starting to get into complex RPGs like this. I love them, but holy hell I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around everything. All the items, crafting, stuff, and also things are quite overwhelming. Thanks for this video.
I’m... much less than that and I’m just playing this game now and my head hurts. Just started the game and there are like tons of different items and crap. Oh my god this is confusing.
@@wakkjobbwizardim playing it 2023 and most of the farming crap looting crap is totally useless ive stoped opening my inventory and im feeling great and progressing.not a bad game but not a masterpiece.i just keep playing coz ive finished every fromsoft game 3 or 4 times
Just picked this up for free on the PS store... Wow, what a game! I can't believe I didn't play this sooner. This video helped SO much at getting started because it is a complex game. Thank you!
Same. I bin playing Dark Souls 3 found a theme that appeals to me and ran with that. This game's playstyle feels very different in comparison similar but different.
*The two different chests can be immediately noticed by their front designs.* A chest with three bars on each of its side is a mimic chest. You can use the Whistle emote in front of it for a cool effect. A chest with two bars on each of its side is a regular chest.
I know this vid is old but I must say one thing that will help out beginners like me ALOT. If you have an internet connection, USE IT. This game becomes INSANELY harder if you play NG+ without an internet connection. I am not talking about co-op. I am talking about revenants. The standard revenants the devs put in offline rarely drop any green gear. Plug in an ethernet cable, play online and now all the revenants literally spew green gear. This pretty much cuts the time for all forms of grinding by at least 50%. Its kind of ridiculous.
@@Matcklim I'm even more late! Got the game for free in Epic Games Launcher and never touched it. I forgot I even owned the game. Then I played Elden Ring and it was my first Souls-type game. I then looked at my list of free game I never played and bingo! There was Nioh!
Just bought the Complete version on Playstation Store and it's a little bit hard at the beginning since there are lots of mechanics in the game to get to know if you don't wanna get killed all the time. So far it's a bit of a struggle on the first mission. The game is fun as hell so I wanna learn how it works to get better on it.
I also picked this up for free recently on the store and it was the first time i'd heard of it. Very challenging at first and your guide is very useful. Now time for more grinding.
Are you still playing? I'm around level 55 and have some killer gear because I like going to high level missions like the twilight missions that are way above my level, and just fight the revenents and some of the actual enemies, but I stay close to a prayer box or whatever, so I can refill my Onmyo magic skills and elixers, but I've gotten extremely high level drops from fighting the revenants, or whatever the red things are where players died and you can summon them to fight them. It's easy to beat one thats much higher level than you if you use the environment to your advantage. I've made it to the 2nd area and I can access the next area, but I don't want to yet... lol, but I've managed to get full Warrior of the West gear including the Bow, and they are at level 73 but if I try to play a hard mission by myself even though I'm overpowered against the NPCs, I still get killed quite a bit, not always by one enemy, but mainly by falling through a hole in the fucking ground or getting ganged up by a mob of enemies. I want to go to the next area and play with some friends instead of playing with randoms at the Toku Bridge or whatever the companion mode is. Are you still playing the game? If so, let me know, my PSN is danimalviking Add me, or give me your PSN and we can link up and go fuck some shit up!
I finally beat the tower after an hour and a half of trying. About the same amount of time into the first mission and I'm still getting fucked up badly
Thanks for this. I am picking this up for PC today and an clueless about the game. I haven't found any guides that focus on how to play at the beginning of the game, so this is just what I was looking for.
I know this is old but it’s very helpful, about to start the first Nioh tomorrow 👌 I’m also gonna be a noob and get the sloth talisman as soon as it will let me 😅
I haven't played video games since the mid 90's. Just bought the PS5 and NIOH collection. Been looking for a beginners guide [I'm in the beginning jail cell in the tower and haven't yet figured out how to get out.] Do you know of any? Thanks!
Question about the stacking of elements. As I understand it from reading around, you're offhand melee weapon (sheathed) doesn't stack it's passive ability with the one you're currently using. If that's the case... Weapon A (Active) - Water +9 Weapon B (Inactive) - Water 38%
great video, thanks! got this during covid hahah. 1 question. I have no other guardian spirits to choose from. when does this unlock and are they connected to kodoma?
After i finished sekiro, i really struggled to find a better game to enjoy. now i guess i am finally in the right place by starting to play nioh. yess i'm late but who cares
Can everything be learned in game (as in what does what/game mechanics) or is a guide such as yours required to figure out the majority of content and workings of the game?
Yo yo, another great vid, you helped me clock the surge👍🏽. My question is can you save or store the gold like you could in the surge by going back to the shrine? Or will I just have to go back to where I die and pick it up all the time? If anyone can answer it would be a great help. Thanks 🙏
Is there a lamp or object that allows you to see in the dark? is that there are some places that are very dark and I get lost, and that I am not someone who gets lost in video games just because they are dark to see.
im seriously bout to quit cuz im sick of the no tutorial and not knowing wtf to put points in. what kind of moron developer spends years making a badass game, then doesnt tell anyone how to play it? would have been pissed if i paid for this thing. runs like crap on my gaming laptop too. GREAT VIDEO THOUGH AS ALWAYS!!! :) thank you RPGD
Love the videos I just bought this game and it's just amazing I was really struggling with to do build wise in this game more so than souls and Bloodborne but your videos are great and really helpful, sub from me
As someone who's close to finishing NG with over 100 hours in the game, DLC included, this is a really nice list. Some of this I only realized 50+ hours in. Lul I would've mentioned the badger mimics, too.
set my alarm clock, bought and installed the game and streamed it for 5 hours. after 5 hours only reached the first real boss on the boat. And he kicked my ass. Loved it. Can't use my special door strategies in this game though. Therefore its an 8/10 and not a 10/10 hehe. Made my way through the content relatively easy, but the boss just 2 shots me. Weird seeing youtube vids with people barely losing health when fighting that big guy. So saying don't worry too much about builds...not so sure. You need tons of health and enough Ki to perform sufficient amount of combo's+reserves for movement. The rest is less important early on. You mentioned that spear is the best starting weapon. And it is, but you gravitate towards it so naturally it isn't really worth giving it a special mention imo. Next to that I use the sickle on a string weapon. And holy shit that does a lot of damage, but is also high risk vs reward. Loving it. Especially if you put 1 point in spirit to unlock some fire or water talismans to enhance the weapons. Or grab poison coating through other stuff. You can stack some nice effects and damage. The red swords in the ground are people who died. Instead of Darksouls ghosts you can actually fight the killed character of other people. Was fun the first few times, but now I just ignore them unless they have purple items that might drop. I barely bother with changing stances. It is more mid or high stance. Do some swings with my weapons and see how fast/smooth they are. And in which circumstances they are usefull. So 1 melee weapon I like to set my spear for poking and narrow fast attacks in small hallways. And the string with scythe for AoE in mid stance, or prepare high stance + poison for Yoki's. Those bastards need to die fast hehe. Sneak attacks/stealth...funny...enemies already don't see you when in line of sight. They're so weird :D Can you have 2 playthroughs/profiles btw? So I can play 1 on stream and another offline? I didn't see that option. So far loving the game. Trash seems easier then dark souls. Bosses seem simpler in attack patterns, but hit like friggin trucks on steroids :O
Ah mate youll see im right about this stuff. You need more Ki for high and mid stance attacks and Kusa is stamina hungry. Thats why i said spread points early so that you can wear different types of gear and buff your character overall (Heart gives more Ki, Body gives most HP, stamina increases equipment carry weight limit...). You need all of it early on. Spear mid stance poke requires little stamina, does solid damage, is fast and has great range. Thats why its so great and when some skills are unlocked thats when it becomes just stupid unless they nerfed it in the meantime. Stance changing becomes more important the further you get. Yes, you can have as many playthroughs as you want but need to start new game. Then game will save in a different slot. At least that is the way on PS4. There should be an option to play offline under System settings as well. Actually door choke point strategy is viable haha. You might like it. Not as good as your DOS 2 door tactic but still... Enjoy the game, it is awesome.
I like Grim Dawn (which is strange cause i dont like diabloesque games) just no time to play it. Gonna use your builds if i get the chance to play it again. You know your stuff definitely.
my builds are...uhm....not the ones on the channel rofl :P those are outdated. could give you others. As playtester i should know a little about it at least ;)
I can disagree immediately with you if you say its a great game heh. Dont even have to play it to know its not great at all. Im glad youre enjoying it though, mate. I was gonna do Elex but just no time. Currently focusing on Nioh and DOS 2. I was already barely managing DOS 2 and now its even tougher. Cant wait for a break tbh.

Ive been on the fence with this game lately. Im somewhat intimidated by difficult games and im just not sure about Nioh and bloodborne as well. But i love the action in it.
Game is most intimidating at the start. Later on you can use all these OP builds that will annihilate everything in your path. Same goes for enemies too. They hit really hard on higher difficulties but youll be prepared. I dont want to force you into decision, just giving you a heads up. Dont be ashamed and intimidated of dying. Its part of the learning process.
If you're unsure about these games I'd start with Bloodborne, I couldn't get into dark souls at first but after Bloodborne it hooked me so hard I went and played thru Souls 1-3 afterwards loving every moment. You just have to accept that you're going to die, likely hundreds of times but it's part of the experience and getting better. Nioh is newer(so more expensive) and is more gear based than Bloodborne which is why I think it'll be harder to get into.
Don't ever put on armor in games like Nioh or Souls games. I've platinumed every single one and armor was never something I cared about. I put on the lightest cloths and move quickly.

Hey guys is there any setting for last checkpoint game start after death at the save point and it's so irritating to kill again and again all the creatures
You mean my voice sounded different? Might be due to fatigue. Working long hours on every game and it accumulates to the point i just want to be done with it all as soon as possible.

I understand that fully, but a PC port not having mouse support is downright stupid. Also, i finished all the Dark souls game on mouse and keyboard and personally, i feel very handicapped using a controller. I even finished Nier-automata with M&K and we all know just how badly it's M&K support was, lol
Controllers work wonderfull. I finished DS3 with m/kb (didn't had controller back then) and controller is just way better for these kinds of games. A controller doesn't have to be expensive, also you will get better using a controller.
There is a guide on youtube to enable mouse support and remap keybinds, works beautifully. My friends did suggest playing with a controller but i find looking around with the right/left stick to be highly unpleasant. I do own a controller, mainly use it for racing games or platformers.

The red swords in the ground are people who died. Instead of Darksouls ghosts you can actually fight the killed character of other people. Was fun the first few times, but now I just ignore them unless they have purple items that might drop.
I barely bother with changing stances. It is more mid or high stance. Do some swings with my weapons and see how fast/smooth they are. And in which circumstances they are usefull. So 1 melee weapon I like to set my spear for poking and narrow fast attacks in small hallways. And the string with scythe for AoE in mid stance, or prepare high stance + poison for Yoki's. Those bastards need to die fast hehe.
Sneak attacks/stealth...funny...enemies already don't see you when in line of sight. They're so weird :D
Can you have 2 playthroughs/profiles btw? So I can play 1 on stream and another offline? I didn't see that option.
So far loving the game. Trash seems easier then dark souls. Bosses seem simpler in attack patterns, but hit like friggin trucks on steroids :O
Ah mate youll see im right about this stuff. You need more Ki for high and mid stance attacks and Kusa is stamina hungry. Thats why i said spread points early so that you can wear different types of gear and buff your character overall (Heart gives more Ki, Body gives most HP, stamina increases equipment carry weight limit...). You need all of it early on.
Spear mid stance poke requires little stamina, does solid damage, is fast and has great range. Thats why its so great and when some skills are unlocked thats when it becomes just stupid unless they nerfed it in the meantime.
Stance changing becomes more important the further you get.
Yes, you can have as many playthroughs as you want but need to start new game. Then game will save in a different slot. At least that is the way on PS4. There should be an option to play offline under System settings as well.
Actually door choke point strategy is viable haha. You might like it. Not as good as your DOS 2 door tactic but still...
Enjoy the game, it is awesome.
I like Grim Dawn (which is strange cause i dont like diabloesque games) just no time to play it.
Gonna use your builds if i get the chance to play it again.
You know your stuff definitely.
my builds are...uhm....not the ones on the channel rofl :P
those are outdated. could give you others. As playtester i should know a little about it at least ;)
Playtester? Awesome. If i ever have enough time to get back to it ill definitely ask you for builds.
Hahahah Well played rpgdivision, well played
Edit: Thanks for the video, helped me out a lot
I late on the party, I just bought the game on steam I hope I will have blast
Hey you bahstahd. I would like to see some content for ELEX from you. It's a great game.
I can disagree immediately with you if you say its a great game heh. Dont even have to play it to know its not great at all.
Im glad youre enjoying it though, mate. I was gonna do Elex but just no time.
Currently focusing on Nioh and DOS 2. I was already barely managing DOS 2 and now its even tougher. Cant wait for a break tbh.
I thought Elex was a good game, too. It had its flaws but was challenging.
Any tips for fighting Hino-Enma as a beginner?
Just started playing this. This shit is fucking amazing.
That intro tho, awesome lol
Anybody have any tips to beat the first boss Onryoki, I get destroyed everytime.
Summon someone you may get a really good player
Fucking right?!?! I've fought this man like a few hundred times and still can't beat him.
Got there at like lvl 14ish... and I'm now lvl 27.. still can't beat him m%
Git Gud
@Stripes Hummus yea ill have to swith up my gear/stance.
Im using heavy armor, sword-mid stance.
Still haven't beat him.
@@shogunjo Are you still playing? Summon me, and we'll fuck him up. I'm around level 55 and have some killer gear because I like going to high level missions like the twilight missions that are way above my level, and just fight the revenents and some of the actual enemies, but I stay close to a prayer box or whatever, so I can refill my Onmyo magic skills and elixers, but I've gotten extremely high level drops from fighting the revenants, or whatever the red things are where players died and you can summon them to fight them. It's easy to beat one thats much higher level than you if you use the environment to your advantage. I've made it to the 2nd area and I can access the next area, but I don't want to yet... lol, but I've managed to get full Warrior of the West gear including the Bow, and they are at level 73 but if I try to play a hard mission by myself even though I'm overpowered against the NPCs, I still get killed quite a bit, not always by one enemy, but mainly by falling through a hole in the fucking ground or getting ganged up by a mob of enemies. I want to go to the next area and play with some friends instead of playing with randoms at the Toku Bridge or whatever the companion mode is. Are you still playing the game? If so, let me know, my PSN is danimalviking Add me, or give me your PSN and we can link up and go fuck some shit up!
Great video thanks!
THANK. YOU. SO. MUCH.
Very useful. Many thanks.
This helped a lot thanks
Everything one-shot you.
Try getting more HP or blocking.
In Russia Nioh plays you
7:13 lol
This game is fuckin hard. Even more than Dark souls at some points. The First Boss fuck me up big time...

I just started, dying but it feels better dying in Nioh than Bloodborne for some reason. 🤣
Thank you so much!
Me who's stuck on Derrick the executioner
Please inform me how to learn controls.Its too difficult to understand them,more than dying!!

Thanks, nice vid. Khabib for champ ;)
thanks bro
Why cant i heal my self
can you make a witcher 3 builds???
Ive been on the fence with this game lately. Im somewhat intimidated by difficult games and im just not sure about Nioh and bloodborne as well. But i love the action in it.
Game is most intimidating at the start. Later on you can use all these OP builds that will annihilate everything in your path. Same goes for enemies too. They hit really hard on higher difficulties but youll be prepared.
I dont want to force you into decision, just giving you a heads up.
Dont be ashamed and intimidated of dying. Its part of the learning process.
If you're unsure about these games I'd start with Bloodborne, I couldn't get into dark souls at first but after Bloodborne it hooked me so hard I went and played thru Souls 1-3 afterwards loving every moment. You just have to accept that you're going to die, likely hundreds of times but it's part of the experience and getting better. Nioh is newer(so more expensive) and is more gear based than Bloodborne which is why I think it'll be harder to get into.
InMaTeofDeath sounds like solid advice, much appreciated.
Thank you pappa
Do you have a low level Axe/heavy armor build?
Don't ever put on armor in games like Nioh or Souls games. I've platinumed every single one and armor was never something I cared about. I put on the lightest cloths and move quickly.
Thank you

Ill reather make an offer for elixir so i dont have to farm them later
Halo bro, I want to ask how to unlock Odachi in Blacksmith? Thank you
Hey guys is there any setting for last checkpoint game start after death at the save point and it's so irritating to kill again and again all the creatures
You didnt sound as fucked up as reviewing the surge, any special reasons 4 that?
You mean my voice sounded different? Might be due to fatigue. Working long hours on every game and it accumulates to the point i just want to be done with it all as soon as possible.
it just seems u had much more fun with nioh. appreciate this, the surge was way too frustrating as nioh in my opinion
No doubt mate. Nioh is much better game overall. Nioh is amazing, Surge isnt.
hahah great intro
Lol great start xD

Thx for help
yessir
Just down loaded this game. Wish me luck
Doesn't support mouse :'(
mate, I own this game on PS4 pro and cannot imagine playing it with keyboard + mouse, it simply cant work well without a gamepad
I understand that fully, but a PC port not having mouse support is downright stupid. Also, i finished all the Dark souls game on mouse and keyboard and personally, i feel very handicapped using a controller. I even finished Nier-automata with M&K and we all know just how badly it's M&K support was, lol
Controllers work wonderfull. I finished DS3 with m/kb (didn't had controller back then) and controller is just way better for these kinds of games. A controller doesn't have to be expensive, also you will get better using a controller.
There is a guide on youtube to enable mouse support and remap keybinds, works beautifully. My friends did suggest playing with a controller but i find looking around with the right/left stick to be highly unpleasant. I do own a controller, mainly use it for racing games or platformers.
Aamranga buy a controller stop complaining
Um...........................................................Frogs????? 7:14
u sound bored af so i am also
Hahahah
ты спицально такой акцент лютий делаеш?
SOOOO mad I spent money on this game.. They are really limiting themselves
Meh....its not dark souls, fuck a "build", just level up lol
How rude
Should probably explain what rng not everyone knows what that is
Here, random number generator.
