I had my ranged weapons buffs mixed up. You'll want Agility Bonus or Equipment Weight bonus (which I haven't seen yet outside of Tatenashi). These apply to melee, but familiarity only applies to the weapon it is on. Also as a few folks have pointed out you could run specific clans to boost this damage even further, Todo for example provides a damage boost to thick boys. That being said I typically stick with the Luck clan simply because loot is life and I want as many drops as possible.
Good stuff bro. If you like this you are gonna love the tonfa. You can apply double element damage in one combo and confuse enemies and bosses. With the high block rating and strong ki damage you’ll be surprise at just how devastating the tonfa can be. I’d love to see what you come up with.
@FightinCowboy hey man, which one is better for dual swords, poison or paralysis build? Wanna hear your opinion, since I think poison is better cuz we can continuosly damaged poisoned enemies, rather than only strike once on paralyzed enemies
Could you Show how you farm All these things i want to make a cool and strong build but dont know if i can get this to work i dont know where to farm and my level in first ng+ is 230 i dont know please explain it a bit detailed
I know this is to late for me but which one better for glove attack or attack and defense dual sword ? Cuz i got armor and glove increase attack n defense dual sword Without got attack + Arigato sensei
A banker who's a wanker with a paycheck on platter nah in the first one you could one shot everything even the floor 999 abyss boss I haven’t seen a build that broken yet
Just started using duel blades recently, only level 58 though. Got a long way to go apparently, but can’t wait! Definitely gonna focus on this build as my primary, appreciate the video!
When he started the fight against the suicide bomb guy I was like ohh that's a lot of damage and then the fight progressed and I was like 0.0 NOW THATS ALOTTA DAMAGE.
man get health on amirta for chest + the teahouse clan w/ the same bonus. You'll be getting ~60 hp per each amirta. Combine that with the Onmyo extraction talisman and w/ that build you literally could just swing wildly into 2021.
Can we get a switchglaive build? I’m sure your already working on it. I can’t wait to see what else you come up with. Great job CB, thanks for all the content
I don't know where you get all that tenacity from; last I heard you say you work full time, & you put out a high amount of quality videos quickly with a new game. #Carpe Diem!
I would really like to thank you for this build and for all the explanations regarding leveling. I struggled through Nioh and the first round of Nioh 2, the latter with an odachi. NG+ with your dual sword set up has actually been...fun? Sekiro (finished twice) and the Niohs have been a grind, and short of fun, but with this rig I do a lot less dying, speed through missions and seem to be actually useful to other players. Thanks Cowboy.
Firm resolve with low stance quick attacks. Use Sign of the cross after a moonshadow or Dual Dragon attack. Firm resolve with low stance quick attack, get your stacks asap making you close to immune to damage in NG+. My weapon is Ichigo Hitofuri with double elemental, lightning plus Fire. This weapon is incredibly good. spam low quick attacks with Dual Dragon to often get behind enemies and then pop sign of the cross. Vs Humans, you dont need paralyzing effects, slap on massive of fast quick attacks and be ready to perform a moon shadow after they block. Their ki will drop in seconds so you perform an execute. If not, just Dual Dragon into their back and Sign of the Cross spam. Each to their own but to new players: The 100% Tank in Nioh 2 IS Dual Swords. Thats it. Firm Resolve is that good, its busted. If you run heavy armor and especially use fast quick attacks with elemental dmg and lightning. You get max stacks immediately for even more damage mitigation. Slap on life drain low attacks, which btw also works on sign of the cross from low stance, which also deals as much dmg in low stance as high stance. Dual Swords its low stance all the way if you want to become a true elemental applying, life draining, tank from hell that also have absurd burst through sign of the cross. Its also alot easier to get Moon Shadow attacks in from low stance since your fast attacks eventually will eat atleast 1 block from human opponents. Its incredibly important however if your a low stance spammer like me, to have elemental weapons. Either through talismans or on the weapon, lightning is still by far the best as its a free sloth mechanic. Reason is alot of your damage is from elemental effects apart from sign of the cross and dual dragon. For bosses in general. You can just hold down sign of the cross with barrier, pop a rejuvenation scroll and barrier and just perma spam sign of the cross until the boss is dead. Firm resolve plus no ki issues and rejuvenation and preferably life drain on weapon means you probably dont need a single pot during most boss fights just spaming sign of the cross.
Hey, Cowboy. Could you provide a guide on armor/weapon familiarity. I need to pass some inheritable stats, and I'm wondering if you know of an efficient strategy.
dude could you do like a hatchet build? Im trying a poison one right now for myself and its not bad honestly im just find a lack of hatchet builds , itd just be nice to see others take on it.
For instance Ive been using dragon fly skill with aspect of serpents to get poison up and give me some breathing room as opposed to using the chain hurl to stack ailments/elemental effects(something Ive seen spoken about in what few threads ive poked around in) something just appeals to me putting goons in the hatchet blender
I can't wait to see what you do with onmyo. The armor you get from the final onmyo dojo mission makes it so you apply weakness with any spell you cast on the enemy.
i repeat that mission is bugged even with my naked character mezuki and guzuki doesnt do much damage ..they both are bugged to do less damage in Refined Man of the Underworld Mission
@@wintersotero9749 I assumed it was intentional since they can both be on the field at the same time. Makes it great for farming amrita and proficiency
Hopefully people read this but keep in mind the fact is that this is version 1.00 to 1.02....... the damage he is doing and the damage that he is receiving would not be like this if the patches were up-to-date he would be doing a lot less damage and he would be taken a little bit more damage....... kind of nerfed paralysis and sign of the cross.... although these are great build videos it's just wrong timing and these builds are kind of inaccurate now because of that
Do the mission where you fight Tokichiro. He drops two dual blade skills. One is called Ultimate sign of the cross and the other one turns your blades into darth mauls lighstaber for a fast low stance attack. I'm not shitting you. Best way to farm it is to go to the boss, kill him and if he doesn't drop the skill just close the game and start it up again you'll be at your last visited shrine so you can fight him again and again that way without having to do the whole mission again.
BTW Cowboy you are able to inherit attack on all of your armor pieces. I've got it on all my armor and definitely helps with more attack when you can get them.
Hey Cowboy longtime fan of your content. I first found you way back when you were making builds on borderlands 2. loving the nioh 2 content and i was wondering why you dont cover what clans you use for your builds? like for this one for example todo would be a big boost to health and damage at 51 stam and A+ stam life bonus scaling from todo you get around 450 health as for damage if you use tatenashi its weight bonus stacks with todo bonus so you can get aa+ weight damage scaling its just over 10k per sword hit on sign of the cross so 20k and then stacking the para bonus from accessories it goes to almost 24 25k then if something is saturated it hits for 30k altogether in a perfect scenario also for your ninja build you would get 40 ninja power at base lvl with the takigawa clan its near the bottom of the clan list which is 4 percent more kunai damage its about 0.5 percent damage per 5 ninja power and thats without any other scaling involved.
Man I can't wait to get a bit further along in this game and actually get some good weapons. I chose Katana and Kusarigama and of course every decent weapon I find is an axe or a long sword.
Just subscribed because of your awesome Nioh 2 build videos. I want to try this build in Nioh 1 with my 142 level character. Should I allocate my stats like in this build with focus on Skill and Stamina or does it work differently in Nioh 1? Appriciate the help! :-) Edit: Is there an option to change the scaling for weapons so you don't have to focus on multiple skills for the weapon?
Love the builds! Is there a way for me to have different builds saved to switch between or do I have to respec each time when I want to be a ninja vs magic user ?
FightinCowboy so that DOES work that way? If I am maining ninja, save the build, then use reincarnation and skills reset, I can save the 2nd build, then freely hop back and forth without anymore skill and stat resets?
Honestly u use dual swords Sonya armor that give life for every kill and life gain amraita absorption skill on few peices of equipment and u just pop extraction talismans can make u unkillable and run mystic art to make talismans last longer just for bonus points and to me that build was way to dependent on sign of the cross and ur saturation build up
I have similar build but the difference beside A master swordsman power set bonuses, I use 3 pieces the Crossed Sickles set bonus (Atagi Sadmune sword as the second weapon, one Kingo armor, + Yasakini. It will give +164 life and 10% increase in Final Blow Damage. I still don't understand how your Bamboo cutter has 1734 attack, while I have higher stats and I'm 1634? FYI, I did remodel but still lower stats than yours. Where did you get the 100 extra attack?
Are you using Ultimate Sign of the Cross? Couldn't tell but I didn't see the combat art equipped when you went over skills and I figured you'd go over that skill as well.
THIS is the build i want, thank you. is there a way to squeeze a normal sword into there? I was thinking dropping a peice of the swordsman armor, replacing it malafactors, and then replacing the malafactors dual sword with a normal sword. Do you have other recommendations for that? I know i will lose the ki burst recovery. What is a good 2 peice set to slip in with the sword?
Dual sword spear build is my favorite along with odachi build....i really should continue the build in nioh one using the one eye dragon and sicon of virtue sets
I know everyone is gonna request every type of build video. But I wanna request a video on a Tonfa build. It’s a cool type of weapon and I want to see what merits it has before deciding on what build I’m gonna use when I get the game.
Hey there, thanks for great content and info. Any hint how to unlock remodel in the forge ? I've been running NG+ for a while but it's still locked. Tanks and keep up the good work !!
Samuel Bernard I don’t if you’re still looking for “remodel” or not but you unlock the old man from a sub quest called sumn Artesian.He was in the first game as well.
So you got perks on certain weapons that can be inherited by other weapons (marked by the symbol [] > [] or > [] ) You need to maximize your familiarity with the weapon which has those kind of perks, then when you try to soul match it to your actual main weapon, you will see that the perk will be added to your initial perks on your main weapon. I'm not that far in the game (chapter 3) and haven't unlocked divine gear so I don't know if they have more perks and if there are other mechanics in the game that can help you customize your perks
Hey Cowboy, question on your sign of the cross tip. I for sure noticed a difference in getting the attack off faster while at a stand still, or without attacking for a second. Does it also work while mid combo/right after an attack? I tried stringing your technique while attacking and it seems I have to wait for the ki to regen to a certain point before switching into sheathed stance, and just holding r1+o after a combo seems to lead a quicker animation of sheathing than the standard still sheathing.
Maybe obvious, but what I do t get is the skill scaling. I know heart is only A-, but wouldn't it be better to remodel to scale with heart so you at least get a bunch of ki out of it?
Sup Cowboy, what's beyond NG+in N2? Does it keep adding cycles? How do you feel about the game's post game content? Laat question regarding builds. Do you think this build's idea can be applied to the single Katana and the Iai Quickdraw? Thanks man!
got to love that nioh 2 builds has no 1shots but there is a soulcore thats op enough to make you kill the bosses in less than 30secs if you're playing solo
Just curious ~ how are you approaching making new builds? I'm sure you're not starting over with for each weapon so are you using the book to reallocate stats and learning the weapons from the ground up after you have the gear?
@@FightinCowboy I mostly started my first time on Nioh with this one. So sort of just bumping my way along unsure of builds or any of that. Right now I went spear with mostly Vice-Chancellor stuff on..since I'm virtually clueless and a noob to this sort of stuff.
Not really relevant question to the video but if you're in the luck clan, does that increase your chances for orange inheritables and 170 level gear? (I'm 2 weeks into this game and have never played the first nioh so I'm still learning)
Can the blacksmithing plans for the Master Swordsman's armor be farmed on NG or does it have to be NG+ ? I've run this guy like 50 times with Item Drop on my equipment and nothing.
@@BarcaAlmighty He explains in the video. The dojo mission for dual swords drops the smithing texts for both the set armor and weapon. It's only effected by ITEM drop modifiers though so stack it on your armor if you're farming him. You don't have souls or personal weapons available.
@@Tremulantone Yes thanks, he mentioned better odd to get it in new game plus. I'm still in my first playthrough. Stacked on item drop rates on my pieces of equipment and farming the "Master of Dual Blades" Dojo. No luck so far.
I just unlocked ng+ and I'm at lvl 113. I want to get this build before I start the ng+ missions. Am I supposed to use this even tho I don't have enough stamina? Or I should just use book of reincarnation and dump points into stamina ? If I use this build my agility is really bad because of equipment weight
Since you can do a all build creation with one character that's what he decided to do so almost all the builds you see on his playlist for this game was for the one character who did the let's play with and except for the walkthrough prep which I'm pretty sure he did a strength build with a totally brand new character but yeah I hear what you mean you like to see progress in the beginning and see the end progress totally get that but with this you're not going to see most of that from him because all he did was farm for a shitload of stuff and then made his build that way and boom farm for a few hours and you already got a build that essentially would take you almost a whole playthrough to get down that's one good quality of life change that they did in the nioh 2 but it kind of makes it to where you only want to have a one-and-done jack-of-all-trades character that can do it all instead of just making five brand-new characters to do five different builds..... hopefully this helps in a way but that's his mentality I've been following this guy since he's been about forty thousand subscribers strong and he still does this type of stuff in most games you won't see a lot of beginning progress but you will see a lot of endgame progress of the builds in games that he plays
FightinCowboy let me be more specific, I don’t know if the switchglave is good. I’m level 35 and I feel they just don’t hit the way they should. Your thoughts? I don’t wanna switch to weapons from the first nioh because I used them in the first one. I’m only in it for the new stuff.

And y'all thought the glass cannon ninjitsu build was OP. Boss grabbed me and it was like a tickle 😂
FightinCowboy the grab doesn’t hit hard
Go get grabbed with the ninja build and see what happens
I take it back , this game is even more busted than the first
A banker who's a wanker with a paycheck on platter nah in the first one you could one shot everything even the floor 999 abyss boss I haven’t seen a build that broken yet
FightinCowboy I just did.... it didn’t take any more than half my health. I’m in NG+
I think you may have broke the game with this build, well done Cowboy-sensei.
Dual swords are a blast to just roll in and overwhelm your enemy.
This game is so addictive!!! I love it! I need this build!

I don't know where you get all that tenacity from; last I heard you say you work full time, & you put out a high amount of quality videos quickly with a new game. #Carpe Diem!
Cool, will give it a try in NG+. Was running something like this in Nioh 1, but doing Switchglaive Mage for now for my first playthrough.
Yeeeeaaah!! Weapon builds!!!!! Please make a Tonfa build next time!
Thank you very much Bro!!
I enjoy playing with the tonfas. I’d love to see a build video on that, because I think it could synergize with hatchets as well
Is this only viable once you start new game after beating normal? How could I start doing this build in regular first play through?
Just watch the video, this build is probably the quickest way to get anyone past any mission starting nioh out...
I would really like to thank you for this build and for all the explanations regarding leveling. I struggled through Nioh and the first round of Nioh 2, the latter with an odachi.

I've been subbed for so long. And your still making great content. Keep it up man
Build seems dope. As a new player though how do you recommend building towards this during a first playthrough?
Exactly the same nothing changes I did a ninja in nioh 1 and now nioh 2 it really is unfair and makes farming easy
Ninja build
Dual Swords/ Ninja. If you need help, I can at least power level you
with soul match you can put attack on all you armor
I got my First Yasakani Magatama in New Game so I’m here to tell you that you can get it. I got it in the Eternal Rivals mission. It came in clutch 💯

Do the mission where you fight Tokichiro. He drops two dual blade skills. One is called Ultimate sign of the cross and the other one turns your blades into darth mauls lighstaber for a fast low stance attack. I'm not shitting you. Best way to farm it is to go to the boss, kill him and if he doesn't drop the skill just close the game and start it up again you'll be at your last visited shrine so you can fight him again and again that way without having to do the whole mission again.

Loving your videos! Would it work to bring your ninjitsu build into ng+ and then reroll into this or should I maybe roll another char?
Sure, I just like doing Ninja to speed through base game but prefer something more combat focused afterwards
A better technique to sheathe your weapons quicker is to tap L2 to pull out your ranged weapon and then R1+O
@Hollow Skull
How so its just as quick as the method described
I hope you reply, how do you get more uhh... "perks" on your weapon? mine only has 3 (the perks you change with Umbracite)
So you got perks on certain weapons that can be inherited by other weapons (marked by the symbol [] > [] or > [] )
You need to maximize your familiarity with the weapon which has those kind of perks, then when you try to soul match it to your actual main weapon, you will see that the perk will be added to your initial perks on your main weapon.
I'm not that far in the game (chapter 3) and haven't unlocked divine gear so I don't know if they have more perks and if there are other mechanics in the game that can help you customize your perks
Hey cowboy why don’t you try making a fate/stay night archer build you already have infinite blade works with otakimaru might be interesting
wouldn't be water sword be better in combination with the paralysis? like, paralyze an enemy get behind, and start swiping his back?
I love your videos
Hey Cowboy, question on your sign of the cross tip. I for sure noticed a difference in getting the attack off faster while at a stand still, or without attacking for a second. Does it also work while mid combo/right after an attack? I tried stringing your technique while attacking and it seems I have to wait for the ki to regen to a certain point before switching into sheathed stance, and just holding r1+o after a combo seems to lead a quicker animation of sheathing than the standard still sheathing.
Gozuki and Mezuki: Why do we hear boss music?
dual swords for life !!
Is it only possible to get the smith text in NG+ (Dream Of The Strong) or is it possible at any game like Dream Of Samurai or Dream Of Demon?
Is there a beginner dual sword build guide?
Is child of the sun armor good for dual blades? because i got the dual swords (lightning and fire) and i wanna try it😁😁
Maybe obvious, but what I do t get is the skill scaling. I know heart is only A-, but wouldn't it be better to remodel to scale with heart so you at least get a bunch of ki out of it?
I love that build.
How did you get the yasakani magatama?
lykast1 best the final boss in New Game +
I am working on my katana and my dual blade however I came across the switch glaive
Sup Cowboy, what's beyond NG+in N2? Does it keep adding cycles?
How do you feel about the game's post game content?
Laat question regarding builds. Do you think this build's idea can be applied to the single Katana and the Iai Quickdraw?
Thanks man!
There's no skills to boost quickdraw damage for the meantime but the paralyze burst concept would still work
got to love that nioh 2 builds has no 1shots but there is a soulcore thats op enough to make you kill the bosses in less than 30secs if you're playing solo
How about a hybrid dual sword/katana build? My girlfriend recently got me into One Piece and I'm trying to cosplay as Zoro lol
switchgliave build. awesome content!!
hi cowboy! would you recommend these attributes to a dual sword main and kusarigama secondary build? 1st run or main story.
dual sword odachi or dual sword axe
Is minds eye working proper for you guys? I cant seem to trigger it.
Just curious ~ how are you approaching making new builds? I'm sure you're not starting over with for each weapon so are you using the book to reallocate stats and learning the weapons from the ground up after you have the gear?
Yes, books to respec, crafting the set I want, doing missions for needed skills
Out here tanking bosses with minimal damage meanwhile I'm getting 1 shot by normal enemies..
Do you have like a build guide on like what you took before you got these?
I played through NG with a ninja build and then went into this.
@@FightinCowboy I mostly started my first time on Nioh with this one. So sort of just bumping my way along unsure of builds or any of that. Right now I went spear with mostly Vice-Chancellor stuff on..since I'm virtually clueless and a noob to this sort of stuff.
Not really relevant question to the video but if you're in the luck clan, does that increase your chances for orange inheritables and 170 level gear? (I'm 2 weeks into this game and have never played the first nioh so I'm still learning)
I’ve spent so much trying to get Fam Dam bonus on a firearm, but I just can’t get it to come up 😭
Can the blacksmithing plans for the Master Swordsman's armor be farmed on NG or does it have to be NG+ ? I've run this guy like 50 times with Item Drop on my equipment and nothing.
They can btw. I got them finally.
@@Tremulantone where and how? Do you man smithing text? Who drops it?
@@BarcaAlmighty He explains in the video. The dojo mission for dual swords drops the smithing texts for both the set armor and weapon. It's only effected by ITEM drop modifiers though so stack it on your armor if you're farming him. You don't have souls or personal weapons available.
@@Tremulantone Yes thanks, he mentioned better odd to get it in new game plus. I'm still in my first playthrough. Stacked on item drop rates on my pieces of equipment and farming the "Master of Dual Blades" Dojo. No luck so far.
Team Ninja watching this...Nerfs incoming...What clan are you running & what title bonuses are you focusing on?
Luck clan of course, titles are mostly just padding
FightinCowboy Thanks. You the man! Stay safe. Stay healthy. We need ya & your OP power to entertain the masses.
Is there a build like this with fire.
Will you do update on this build?
Is ethereal gear a thing yet or no? I’ve looked it up but there’s really not much information on a majority of the questions I have about the game.
at 15:00
you actually were the boss there
I just unlocked ng+ and I'm at lvl 113. I want to get this build before I start the ng+ missions. Am I supposed to use this even tho I don't have enough stamina? Or I should just use book of reincarnation and dump points into stamina ? If I use this build my agility is really bad because of equipment weight
The build will be more deadly with attack inheritable on all armour
Alright Cowboy, do you have a dual swords build that starts from day 1 playing instead of new game+???
Since you can do a all build creation with one character that's what he decided to do so almost all the builds you see on his playlist for this game was for the one character who did the let's play with and except for the walkthrough prep which I'm pretty sure he did a strength build with a totally brand new character but yeah I hear what you mean you like to see progress in the beginning and see the end progress totally get that but with this you're not going to see most of that from him because all he did was farm for a shitload of stuff and then made his build that way and boom farm for a few hours and you already got a build that essentially would take you almost a whole playthrough to get down that's one good quality of life change that they did in the nioh 2 but it kind of makes it to where you only want to have a one-and-done jack-of-all-trades character that can do it all instead of just making five brand-new characters to do five different builds..... hopefully this helps in a way but that's his mentality I've been following this guy since he's been about forty thousand subscribers strong and he still does this type of stuff in most games you won't see a lot of beginning progress but you will see a lot of endgame progress of the builds in games that he plays
Have you gotten the ultimate sign of the cross to drop yet off of a boss? Curious how that does on damage.
Dominic Surace just two extra basic slices
How do you feel about dual hatchets and switchglave?
They're fine
FightinCowboy let me be more specific, I don’t know if the switchglave is good. I’m level 35 and I feel they just don’t hit the way they should. Your thoughts? I don’t wanna switch to weapons from the first nioh because I used them in the first one. I’m only in it for the new stuff.
