    The amount of people suggesting Fuma Ninja is better than Master of Illusion (Flying Kato) is disgusting. Fuma's only benefit is that it has kunai damage as a base roll, which you can roll onto every piece of Kato using inheritables.
    They're not even in the same ballpark, Master of Illusion 10,000% shits in Fuma Ninja's mouth.
    It's like comparing a kiddie pool to a full blown water park.

Theres 2 X umbrella yokai close you can pop speedrun scrolls melt them with kunai and drop kill. Soul cores drop often which you can dispose of in resting rites and get umbrella ribs from there as well as the occasional drop from the umbrella yokai themselves.

    Kunai benefits from rule of thrusting and attack from behind so having a sword or spear equipped with thrusting damage and attack from behind damage (ranged weapons can also get attack from behind damage) will increase your Kunai damage significantly. Also would be nice to mention clans, what clans to use. I believe there is a clan that adds +40 ninjutsu power.

    • @conget
      @conget 4 года назад

      Correct. However, there are 2 clans which could be benefit the build. 1 is indeed with + ninjutsu power, the other one is thrust dmg boost. Still figuring out which combination gives the best

    I've been using the final boss's core ability instead of the snake. I don't even need to use any kunai on some bosses, just weakness + yokai ability = done. Although it varies a lot because it can miss on smaller bosses, but I still love it. Especially with how ridiculously fast ninjutsu charges anima, you can practically spam the yokai ability.

      Get to NG and then you go to the Abduction mission. It is the same level as Pervading Waters. You enter and go to the center where there are two Gakis and a baby cyclops. Kill them but keep them contained in the room. Loot the corpse they were around. If it drops what you want pick it up. If it doesn't go back to the shrine and reload kill them again and loot corpse. This time pick up whatever it drops then Divine Branch. Go back in and make sure you have Divine Branches. This is how you farm a Yasakani as well without having to beat the game.

    The best thing about being a ninja in this game is you're pretty much also a wizard. Also get the three element ninjutsu and the final bosses yokai skill, and you can storm any enemy with countless spell attacks, which are so good against enemies that block a lot. Also with nekomata, i really suggest switching the final boss soul core to Feral type. You can do that with Feral type cores that drop from human-type bosses. This activates the +20% damage from Nekomata and the Yokai skill of saving Anima when using the same type soul core skills, and this skill alone melts even NG+ bosses.

    actually once you reach end game, trying to get yasakani magatama accessory, then run 4 piece of flying kato and 2 piece of iga is better, with the help of that accessory, you can trigger 5 effect of flying kato, the 6th once is not important since it's not increase your throwing weapon damage, and 2 piece of iga will trigger extra +58 ninjutsu power
    and you don't need to stick with writing set accessory for other slot, just anything with untouch ninjutsu is fine, other opt like kunai & shuriken damage or ninjutsu power can be easy to temper into accessory, but for some weird reason, you cannot temper untouch ninjutsu into accs, they only appear in the one that drop from monster

    Yaroka Water in shadow arts has been lasting WAY longer than weakness talisman for me. Best to nail something with it either right off the bad, the range is good, or wait for the to miss or to engage and attack an ally. Tested on Formal Match Obsidian Warrior dude and weakness talisman lasted a few seconds compared to Yaroka Water which lasted at least as long as it took me to empty my supply of throwing weapons into him and kill him. (which obviously isn't very long with this build, but still it lasted much longer than weakness talisman)

    Outstanding video, Cowboy!
    1) Now... how did you _really_ get those near perfect writing sets?! o.O
    How do you farm for those?
    Or there's a way to just temper them?
    2) Divine gear!!! nice! Can you confirm that's NG+1?
    If yes, then a PA should be sent: "people, go straight up for NG+ and then the builds really begin".
    How about Ethereal gear? Do they appear on NG+?
    Also, there are many questions that you could maybe clarify in other videos:
    3) Are the stats of secondary melee and secondary ranged active at all times? Even when you have the other weapon selected?
    4) What is the contribution of the 2nd Spirit Guardian when it is not selected as main?
    5) does "Thrust damage" affect Kunai dmg?
    6) Does "Increase ranged damage" affect Kunai and Shuriken?
    7) Ninjutsu Power vs. Shuriken and Kunai dmg. Shur and Kunai dmg are higher, usually, but how are the poison and flame DOTs affected by Ninjustu Power?
    =)

      3) only "active" weapon bonuses apply except set bonuses
      4) the inheritable icon applies (it's the guardian spirit icon next to 1 stat)
      5) yes
      6) no
      7) not sure
