Do you know if Melee damage on a water Katana buffs the ult as well because you're basically doing melee attacks? I do know that the ult counts towards the daily where you have to do 100 melee kills
Cool build, but for the best maximum damage build, do this: For ur techniques, have Raging Flame, Legendary, Resolve Increase, and Hachiman's Freezy. Water Katana or Stone Katana - Melee Damage - Oni Damage • Way of the Flame • Burning Blade Forbidden Medicine - Blast Radius - Status Effect Damage • Black Powder Bomb • Samurai Unlock Samurai Charm - Melee Damage - Ultimate Damage • Blessed Strikes • Fire Master Kunai - Melee Damage - Ghost Weapon Damage • Super Massive • Hidden Blades Bottle of Liquid Courage - Cooldown Reduction on Kill - Injured Resolve Gain • Lucky • Strong Brew
Like the build, very inspirational thank you. Now, you are amazing for using the Mass Effect lobby music for your background sound of choice. Just hearing that linked two games i love at once together seamlessly. Hope your having a great week!
I run something similar like this. I use Samu Charm with Blessed Strikes and Super Armor, Spirit Kunai with Lucky and Super Massive for almost no cooldown on Raging Flame. And healing gourd with dmg reduction and injured resolve (Lucky and Strong Brew). I like the idea of that defence charm! I might implement that into my old resolve build. Great video!
When I run something dumb like Caltrops, Lucky activates 15+ times per match so it's always useable, but when I run something I actually like and want, like Kunai, Lucky activates maybe once per match or once every other match. It's insane how they did the algorithm on that.
I’m already running a similar build but I’ve only gone for the one legendary with the healing gourd as soon as I saw that you get the injured resolve gain plus on use it was a must have, now I’m using the samurai charm with blessed strikes or what ever it’s called just for the healing to myself so I can pop into a group spread the fire get hit a few times and pop my ult the heal and pop it again
I thought that with the new class binding mechanic for gear my OP Forbidden Medicine samurai would have to step down due to Ronin restriction but your video was confirmation that I can still use them with the new Raging Flame build. THANK YOU
@@AntiTheLost Start a mastery challenge on it as Ronin, then roll the 3rd or 4th perk to get Samurai Unlock. It will still be able to be used by Samurai even though it says Mastery can only be completed by Ronin!
@@JusWidow. go to your techniques for Samurai and it will be in there beside the other top 2 techniques. You may have to pay to unlock it with either honor or one of the other currencies I forget which one.
Spirit Kunai with Hidden Blades and Super Massive is almost impossible to give up. Just such an abusive Legendary right now lol. I can reset everything so quickly because of it. And bombs are still an excellent source of Resolve gain. Not only that, but that loadout for Spirit Kunai also deals excellent damage. If you get good on executing with it (knowing damage thresholds), you're most likely going to hold the most kills and damage output due to your ability to constantly reset. But I have a challenge for you: see if you can find a build that properly mixes Spirit Kunai with Courage Gourd. Hmm wonder if you can abuse a Fire Ronin build that uses almost only SK and Gourd over and over hahah.
Burning blade has a ridiculously low proc chance, and straight up doesn’t do anything half the time on samurai due to the new class ability and way of flame (which you should run on every sword). For a secondary perk it’s always best to go with mastery of whatever stance your sword is
I rolled on Fired Up as the second perk onto my Dirt Throw that has Rancid. However it looks like it applies the burn damage but doesn’t apply the weaken anymore? The fuzzy criss cross pattern isn’t visible over the enemy health bar.
@@mr.perfume8357 You can usually see if weaken has applied by looking at their health bars. However, that’s not happening at the moment as it looks like the second (Mastery) power (fire) is replacing it instead of adding to it. An easy fix, I’m sure, but a slight pain in the proverbial at the moment.
Just a question. Wouldn’t you want blessed strikes over combat regeneration? I can’t WAIT to use this build but I can’t get a forbidden medicine to drop to save my life!!! Is there a good alternative of this build I could use till I can get FM to drop?
I do, but it sucks. I'm actually thinking about making a video on how much they f***ed over the assassin with this update. No build I try comes even close to being as good as the Samurai or Hunter.
I have the exact same build except the charm. I run samurai charm with melee + ultimate damage, increased resolve and blessed strikes. I find that having 5 resolve ur able to triple ult when played correctly and double ult very consistently. And blessed strikes during ult gets you to max hp easily if you went too greedy with raging flame
Yeah, I still need to properly test the melee charm, though as I mention in the video, the dude I was playing with had pretty much the same build as you have and we were really even in terms of kills. Maybe trying it out in survival will be better since it's longer.
This helped me with my samurai alot ty. Using three ults and getting 2-3x total kills above teammates had around 240 kills while my team had 40-60- and 100 lmao
I’m currently equipped with raging flame, with legendary stone katana with the stone master perk with the samurai charm with blessing strikes, been doing good with that, I suck against fighting the ronin enemies so it’s nice to have that heavenly strike perk with hachimans frenzy technique
It’s just a straight button mash style cause the raging flame with the fast ferocious heavy strikes plus the blessing strikes staggers enemies pretty easily
I can not do the mastery challenge on the equipment: forbidden medicine. It puts me that the object can be linked only by the ronin class whereas I have to unlock the trump: usable by the samurai. How should I do ?
You need to start the challenge slot when the bomb is equipped by the ronin. After that you can just level it up to 120 with the samurai. Of course, you need the samurai perk that allows to equip it to the samurai.
This build is great but i basically run katana, Samurai charm and Kunai for tthat triple melee damage + double x oni or ultimate damage build which does serious damage and onslaught on even the Greater oni enemies.
How i can get legendary forbiden medicine for samurai? I'm just have 1 this item for ronin.. And i need that for samurai. Must be farming use ronin class?
I feel a little badass knowing I turned off all the indicators for damage and arrow directions. Makes the game a tad bit more realistic and difficult. I beat the game on lethal plus with minimal hud, fun stuff
I was running Utility charm on my samurai from another video I saw. Maybe I’ll give the defense a try. Samurai has been perpetually stuck at 112 ki because I keep binding new gear to him with each new RUclips video
Everyone’s Got their own opinion, some feel the need to share it more than others lol. Shake it off, great content… based upon facts, testing and experience. Much appreciated😎
Totally agree for katana on using cancelling is just no for me haha and yes using Way of the Flame then Burning Blade is just crazy. Idk about Black Powder on Samurai as if it like losing the essense of the samurai though. And FINALLY defense charm really unique this will be my reference later on. Still searching for the Bottle of Courage...
Hey, why don't you save (upload to cloud or USB) BEFORE you reroll/unlock perk. If you don't get what you want just reload the save. Rinse and repeat. This is what i did and got exactly what i wanted on all my gear at level 120. Same goes for Mastery Challenges before you activate! Works like a charm 🤗 Longest i tried was maybe 5 minutes to get what i wanted on one gear piece.
You said the increased radius 50% on the sticky increases the radius of the bomb pack, as in the black powder bombs? If so thats so odd but good to know.
Actually, it doesn't. I got it the other way around. It's the "Blast Radius" modifier on the sticky that also affects the bombs, not the Blast Radius Perk.
@@monoespacial Combat Regeneration is a low budget BS and not worth it ever. You already have Forbidden Medicine to top off health. BS+SA has amazing synergy. You can't get staggered and you heal through any hit that would otherwise stagger you and leave you unable to move which leads to death. Also SA is a massive dps increase because you can just dps through any hits and won't get interrupted. Dodging or blocking or parrying just becomes a waste of time when you can go all out all the time. I can't believe how broken it is. All I literally do is spam triangle with Raging Flame or WotF active. You can completely disregard what the enemies are doing.
@@Shvabicu Exactly! And because you're taking damage AND you're also dealing damage while healing all at the same time, your resolve gets full immediately.
I managed to get fire damage oni damage and fire master all on one build and I melt enemies so stinking fast. Only problem is no blessed strikes to keep you from getting one shotted by those Oni Lords
I don't usually play Ronin. I'm trying to decide if I should do a Hunter or an Assassin build next... I will eventually do Ronin, though Ronins aren't very useful in Rivals now.
You can only get forbidden medicine for samurai, and you get it by re rolling the perk slot while it’s equipped to ronin until you get “samurai unlock”
Sick build. I like your choice of legendaries here. Also, look i may be a scoundrel hunter for this, but you beautiful samurai people running healing bombs are the reason why i can greed on my perks and take extra resolve instead of blessed arrows. ;) much approved
I've been bugging @GooshyGaming to play Hunter to my Samurai in Rivals but he's been very busy. @Tepeshu find me on discord (I'm on the tsushima discord, or my own) so we can play together.
@@CentauriTT Not saying it's not good, it's just not a buff at all, a handy tool sure. Assassin needs 30% steath damage and quick assassination as passive, then a chain assassination as a skill, that gives a good base to work with.
Completely disagree. Magma bomb and a smoke bomb means I’m doing nearly all my kills with Stealth Damage and barely anyone can see me. The new vanish is also great with chain vanish as a Power on an item so you can disappear, heal, pick up a teammate then stab someone else nearby and heal your teammate so they’re straight back in the fight.
Im not the greatest, so that blessed strikes perk really is clutch for me and fills health fast along with resolve. Seems like i need to try combat regeneration
Get the Samurai Unlock perk. Equip then on samurai. Start mastery with Ronin. Should still be required on your samurai. Once you get it to level 120 you can roll a second perk
I recently got the new bow that shoots three arrows at once and it seems really good but I can't figure out how to best use it. Has anyone done some testing with this weapon?
I think at least they should let us choose the second perk we want instead of being random because the way it's done it's very discouraging to be honest.
@@davedelorean2383 that's exactly what I used and got exactly what I wanted. It took several rolls for each, but way better than purifying more cursed gear.
No matter what I do I can't seem to unlock Bottle of liquid courage, I've given up at this point. I've beating Nightmare survival countless times, I've been every Survival mission on Gold even more times. I've beaten every story mode on Gold numerous times and still no Bottle of Liquid courage. My Samurai is Rank 71 with 120 KI, I've unlocked every Legendary item at least 3 times so far and never once the Bottle Of liquid courage. It's the only Perk holding me back from becoming invincible. I've tried everything possible and it just won't unlock, I've put in near 100hrs alone trying to unlock it, I've even uninstalled the game and reinstalled it not still no bottle of liquid courage. I give up at this point.
I dont know man, everybody play with forbidden medicine, i just don feel it, i like my spirit Kunai And Bottle of Luquid Courage build more. Just subjectively speeking.
They should remove that stupid op bomb packs anyway and focus more on real swordskills. I'm tired of ronin spamming them and spawnkilling enemys and leave you with nothing to do. If you wanna go for 300+ kills - play alone!
You can! I'm gonna do a short explaining this, but basically, get the samurai unlock on level 110 Forbidden. Equip on Samurai. Then start mastery with ronin. Re-roll Samurai Unlock if necessary. Boom, you're done.
@@codylove9111 binding is Ronin only but even after it's bound to Ronin you can use it on Samurai because the perk overrides the binding and takes priority.
Cant go wrong with Kunai's for melee damage but I love my dirt throw! Lol That perfect parry window that it gives me is enough to let me perfect parry like 80% of the time, I love it. Im surprised I don't see more players talking about it to be honest
I have my Ronin and Samurai at 120 Ki with the secondary perks unlocked now, completely broke on resources. Might take a few weeks to do my Assasin. Dunno if I'll ever boost my 110 Hunter to 120, I know Hunter is good but mine just collects dust. Only used every now and then for the ranged daily challenge.
I run pretty much the same build but with more injured resolve gain up to almost 50% in charm and gourd and super armor to build resolve with out being interupted while attaking throw some damage reduction in the gourd and u will be undaying and dish out an awesom amount of damge with your alt spam combind with raging flame
The samurai is gonna be even more if a tank. Super armor with blessed strike 120 charm. Tech use the flame. Use the forbidden with sticky. Smoke or healing gourd. Katana using the sword that does 20% damage water stance plus burning blade. Off topic, stone striker ronin. I got the kunai maxed with 5 kunai with super massive. Play on gold and your just mowing them down. If you get all five, there’s no pause unlike the 2. But to get all five you have to really line them up then do a micheal jordan jump shot!
The only thing that’s holding me back from making a super samurai build is the “ samurai charm” I have been playing almost a week now and no samurai charm drop for me…I think with all the recent patches,the drop rates for class charms have been reduced.it sucks coz now u gotta grind extra time just to have what u need I think it’s done this way so sucker punch can keep you playing the game longer maybe that’s how they get paid from Sony.if more and more people are playing legends mode then it’s bigger profits for them.
What u think will happen if u highlight something as OP or broken... ?? Dnt u RUclipsrs mess enough stuff up.. so if its patched it's ok to take all me anger out on u then??
Increased radius by 50% perk on sticky bomb do not buff FM however the stat: Blast radius on sticky bomb does buff FM
I got this the other way around!! Thanks for the correction

hahahahaha we'll play soon dude! i should have more time this weekend. awesome vid! been looking for a good samurai build
Pretty balanced build I think 🤔
Techniques - Raging flame, legendary, resolve increase, hachimans frenzy
Masamunes edge - melee resolve gain, ultimate damage, water stance/intimidating counter (if you can tech wind), way of the flame
Half Bow (for ult) - ranged resolve gain, reload speed [[hi Joey 😍]]
Samurai charm - melee resolve gain, resolve gain/fire damage, fire master, blessed strikes
Kunai - melee damage, cool down reduction on kill/status effect duration, fired up, super massive/hidden blades
Liquid courage - injured resolve gain/cooldown, damage reduction/cooldown, lucky, strong brew
Gooshy + Mono would be soooo dope to watch!!!! 2 of the best GOT RUclipsrs 🥳😁
Thanks for the help man, even a year later from when you posted this video guided me to be a better samurai.

I recently got the new bow that shoots three arrows at once and it seems really good but I can't figure out how to best use it. Has anyone done some testing with this weapon?
Runs out of ammo too fast
It sucks, to be honest. It runs out of arrows very fast, and is very slow to shoot
That's what I've been starting to think. It's really fun but munitions isn't enough to keep it going for a full game of survival or rivals
I think at least they should let us choose the second perk we want instead of being random because the way it's done it's very discouraging to be honest.
Upload save before rolling. Download save if you do not get what you want ;)
@@davedelorean2383 that's exactly what I used and got exactly what I wanted. It took several rolls for each, but way better than purifying more cursed gear.
Melin.. hey i know that guy
No matter what I do I can't seem to unlock Bottle of liquid courage, I've given up at this point.
I've beating Nightmare survival countless times, I've been every Survival mission on Gold even more times. I've beaten every story mode on Gold numerous times and still no Bottle of Liquid courage.
My Samurai is Rank 71 with 120 KI, I've unlocked every Legendary item at least 3 times so far and never once the Bottle Of liquid courage.
It's the only Perk holding me back from becoming invincible.
I've tried everything possible and it just won't unlock, I've put in near 100hrs alone trying to unlock it, I've even uninstalled the game and reinstalled it not still no bottle of liquid courage.
I give up at this point.
Trials of iyo gets you alot that's how I farmed mine
I think I played a game with you last night?
I played a few rounds of gold rivals and nightmare survival, so maybe.
Bottle of liquid courage fills 1-2 resolve on my game
I dont know man, everybody play with forbidden medicine, i just don feel it, i like my spirit Kunai And Bottle of Luquid Courage build more. Just subjectively speeking.
They should remove that stupid op bomb packs anyway and focus more on real swordskills. I'm tired of ronin spamming them and spawnkilling enemys and leave you with nothing to do. If you wanna go for 300+ kills - play alone!
@@captainhindsight675 feel ya
You can no longer bind forbidden medicine to samurai unless its just me
You can! I'm gonna do a short explaining this, but basically, get the samurai unlock on level 110 Forbidden. Equip on Samurai. Then start mastery with ronin. Re-roll Samurai Unlock if necessary. Boom, you're done.
@@monoespacial Once you bind to ronin its stuck on ronin
@@codylove9111 no. I clearly have a 120 FM on my Samurai, don't I?
@@monoespacial yeah you do i guess im still confused on the proccess of getting the 110+ forbidden onto samurai. When i try to bind is says ronin only
@@codylove9111 binding is Ronin only but even after it's bound to Ronin you can use it on Samurai because the perk overrides the binding and takes priority.
Ayo u remember me
Where my dirt throwers at?!? lol
Cant go wrong with Kunai's for melee damage but I love my dirt throw! Lol That perfect parry window that it gives me is enough to let me perfect parry like 80% of the time, I love it. Im surprised I don't see more players talking about it to be honest
I have my Ronin and Samurai at 120 Ki with the secondary perks unlocked now, completely broke on resources. Might take a few weeks to do my Assasin. Dunno if I'll ever boost my 110 Hunter to 120, I know Hunter is good but mine just collects dust. Only used every now and then for the ranged daily challenge.
You gotta use the upload/download technique so you don’t waste all your resources when rolling
I run pretty much the same build but with more injured resolve gain up to almost 50% in charm and gourd and super armor to build resolve with out being interupted while attaking throw some damage reduction in the gourd and u will be undaying and dish out an awesom amount of damge with your alt spam combind with raging flame
I need forbidden medicine for my samurai but the game doesn't wanna drop it 😩
I was grinding for 4 days in a row before I got the gourd, and then I got 3 of them IN A ROW.
@@monoespacial omg 😂
Thing is I rly don't like playing ronin...I'm a samurai main so it's kinda hard to adapt a different playstyle...but it's not bad
RIP ronin, ruined by the nerfed bomb damage
Ronin still kicks ass even with the nerf to bomb packs, true Ronin mains have already adapted and are thriving
The samurai is gonna be even more if a tank. Super armor with blessed strike 120 charm. Tech use the flame. Use the forbidden with sticky. Smoke or healing gourd. Katana using the sword that does 20% damage water stance plus burning blade. Off topic, stone striker ronin. I got the kunai maxed with 5 kunai with super massive. Play on gold and your just mowing them down. If you get all five, there’s no pause unlike the 2. But to get all five you have to really line them up then do a micheal jordan jump shot!
If I ever run into you and Gooshy on the same team on Rivals, I will quit and I will NOT feel bad about it😂😂😂
Lol! We were playing yesterday and finished in 5:55! I'll upload the vid soon.
Raging flame is broken :/
check out my build, what do you think?
The only thing that’s holding me back from making a super samurai build is the “ samurai charm” I have been playing almost a week now and no samurai charm drop for me…I think with all the recent patches,the drop rates for class charms have been reduced.it sucks coz now u gotta grind extra time just to have what u need I think it’s done this way so sucker punch can keep you playing the game longer maybe that’s how they get paid from Sony.if more and more people are playing legends mode then it’s bigger profits for them.
What u think will happen if u highlight something as OP or broken... ?? Dnt u RUclipsrs mess enough stuff up.. so if its patched it's ok to take all me anger out on u then??
You seriously think games are balanced based on RUclips videos instead of the ton of metrics the devs have access to?
:)
Lost all respect when u added bombs to a samurai class 🤦♂️
