@@RottenIf_Zombie get gud son. Weather u like the dodge is also deflect or not. Gotta get us to it. This game rewards players for there Skill, PATIENCE and Aggression. And after playing sekiro beating it 4+ times I know your pain. But u got no choice Got To GAT GOOD
Coming from Nioh 2 I understood how most of the mechanics worked. Currently running a poison build where I stacked accumulation of poison across multiple pieces and got 33.3%. Stacked Toxin Damage as well to get 143 damage. Melt through all the enemies and some bosses to.
That’s nasty. What are your numbers in each stat? I’m at point now where I’m fairly leveled and want to switch up various builds by adding and subtracting points. I have enough right now to max out poison (40 or so points for max, right?) Just curious what you paired with that Poison is fantastic build when paired with flame. The poison keeps the flame going longer. The combo shreds from what I’ve seen. That’s ultimately the build I want to go with
Phase1: Spam light attack (but not too fast) & stay putting pressure on him. Then Block+Parry the red attacks and counter. Phase2: Run in circles far away and counter that long grab attack about 3 times, then hit Y+B (xbox) and Beast summon will instakill him.
Yeah, Focus on learn how yo deflect atacks, they have a time Focus on press circle when the atack is about to land on You, and the red attacks have 1 or 2 signals, try to learn that, You muy wait for the right one
Don’t feel bad man, that boss is tougher than the gatekeeper boss at the start of Dark Souls 3. The good news is the only boss after that one to face before you can upgrade your weapons and gear is a cake walk by comparison and you’ll be able to get the health steal on hit buff and no-staggering buff pretty quickly which will make some enemies a complete joke you can just spam light attacks on as you heal more health than they can take away and they can’t stagger you out of your combos. Oh! And upgrade wood, it’s the new “level vigor” lol you NEED wood to be your highest skill for awhile to not be one-shottable
So easy if your stuck on the first your in a treat for the rest of them but spam light and deflect 2 phase just wait til he does the red attack deflect hit the shit out of him then rinse repeat
N°1 : If you play it like Dark soul / elden ring, you're doomed. 2: Upgrade your gear. I see you're still using +0 weapons at this point in the campaign. I don't understand how people get stuck in progression in this game. Coming from nioh, this game is very easy. If you think it's a souls game, that's why you're struggling. It's an action game, meant to be played running everywhere, jumping stealth attacks, attacking relentlessly. If you're waiting for an attack to come, you're doing it wrong. The more you attack the shorter the fights. You've got like 10 potions by the end it, I usually use 2 to 3. I never ran out of potions from the start. So stop thinking it plays like dark souls and read the damn tips the game gives you. I watched Asmongold playing it, no wonder he quit. He plays it like dark souls which will never work in this game. He didn't read a single tutorial and was asking 2 hours later what those red attacks were in chat... He doesn't even know there's a strong attack and how powerful it is when used correctly (at max spirit).
thats because asmongold is an idiot he just games and streams brainlessly that he even got a channel with people dumb enough to follow him suprises me i guess people like to watch retarded shit for their entertainment
There's nothing wrong with waiting for enemy to attack. For mobs it's a lot safer to attack after deflecting so they won't be able to do red attacks when you're attacking. Deflecting also reduces enemy spirit cap and gives you spirit. If you get the deflect timing right you can easily defeat bosses by just deflecting and using strong attacks when at max spirit. Critical blows deal a huge amount of damage, so it's completely viable to play defensively. It's still a souls like where reading enemy movement is important and relentless attacks will easily lead to death, especially for bosses and large mobs. You can't stagger them and you can't deflect when in an attack animation.
@@Marco2-tc8pw sure they can do red attacks when being hit especialy when they dont flinch when getting hit but for example the very first boss of the game yeah in his first form if you keep hitting him he cant do nothing but in his second phase he doesnt flinch and can do red attack whenever he wants
@@Marco2-tc8pw and also large mobs can be staggered but not just with normal attacks but when i use an element on my weapon and then attack they always will get a stagger moment where they stop with their combo they were planning on doing and even bosses have that and for most enemys you dont have to play defensive you need to kill them strategicly like looking at your surroundings and look for places to go to get that fatal strike and no this is no soulslike game why does everyone keep doing this its ridiculous
Just started playing and I’ve come to the realization Elden Ring would be so sick with battle sets instead of having to use rare consumables to reset and put all your different equipment on all over again.
First boss get your moral rank up to 15 or 20 and make sure to have a sword and keep pressure on him with normal attacks and use your heavy attacks in conjuction and deflect when necessary but make you keep pressure on the first fight
I never understand how people just try to rush to the boss and never take their time exploring the whole map and looking for all the loot. It’s just dumb.
I'm employing the same strategy that got me through all the Team Ninja and other Soulslike games: get my timing right and always equip the thing with the biggest number that doesn't weigh me down. It's working so far!
Tried to 100% this game with a hundred hours in, and the only thing that I've used is my health potion. Everything seems easily countered by what build you take on.
This game really thought of everything. It's literally everything I hoped Sekiro would be. Not shading Sekiro, but honestly THIS is exactly what I had hoped for.
@@sekirotelcoin3336 yeah I hear that , I was referring more to the customization options, Sekiro combat combined with all that would be the perfect game for me
@Gwola from da Ville I find it more complex in sekiro with all the abilities you can unlock I found in wo long I could own everything with fire 90% off the time
One of the biggest things I've learned from this game especially after a lot of ass kickings from Lu bu is making sure my morale was at 25. It really helps on boss fights..
No, that was cheated. I beat lubu and mostly bosss with 17-19 morale depend on how lucky i found the flags. You just need a good reflex to deflect anything. Deflect mechanic destroy this game. I even think they need nerf the window since it's too easy than sekiro's deflect timing.
Yeah the first time you fight Lu Bu was the first boss that I sort of struggled with. Sort of struggled meaning it took me 3 tries. Haha I love this game but I wish every boss had 2 phases like the first boss.
I got dual blades with Sudden Tornado and that helped me with my parrys because they have shorter attack windows letting me parry more often while spamming attack.
I have a few Battle sets, for Ice, Lightning, Poison and Fire as of now. The other elements aren't as fun as those, but Poison and Ice are fun af, highly recommend.
btw if you anyone wanna lv fast i have a decent way for that early on when you get to the 4th level the demon fort i think its called in that lv you have a battle flag and right in front of it there is a demoncat with his back to you so when your morale is rank 25 you will kill it instantly with the stealth kill and then just run back up the flag and rince and repeat its also a nice way to lv the oath lv from the warriors also when you happen to be further in the story so that you have the hidden village unlocked you can also put the more qi stat on every item so that you can get more for each kill
@@1ondutygaming you also need to have unlocked the full functionality of the blacksmith to use embedment system and if you can't choose this stat in the list then you still need to salvage a gear piece to unlock it i think i already had it after my first salvage
Now if they could update game to restock ur ammo when hitting flag or returning to hidden village with the extra in store would be nice. I have to keep buying and wasting money to restock ammo since it is not possible to access storehouse except to sell things. Biggest reason I don't use ranged and just use ice lance to draw goons. Hope they fix this soon
lv up the warriors you get through the story and lv the oath to lv10 so that you unlock the armor sets+weapons from that character those items are always 4star and they have set bonuses and need to be collected through deliveries also when you unlock those armor/weapons sets they start to drop from mobs
Anybody stuck on the first boss u have to take a stand back approach cuz he will come to 7 and u have to counter mostly all the red moves to beat him. If having problem with countering regular moves u can block just not too much. Mix up the countering and blocking if u have to.
Biggest tip I can give anybody considering I'm on New Game Plus learn to deflect if you can't deflect you're wasting your time playing this game because in later stages you will be punished there's times will you'll have to fight 3 enemies 3 boss enemies at one time this happens multiple times in the game learn to deflect or you will lose
Yo I didn't know there was a loadout mechanic! I wanted to try a different build late game but really didn't want to mess with my current build. I wish every game with rpg mechanics had loadouts. Makes life so much easier. Two biggest mistakes I made (beginning and just throughout) 1.) I didn't realize that resistance rating for armor was resistances. I thought it some how scaled with your weapon to make it stronger 2.) Not understanding how nuts some of the armor set perks can be, so I sold a bunch of sets before seeing what they provided. The armor set from the first guy that aids you gives you an attack buff from deflecting! Super good and easy to pull off
Plus you can really improve armor stats by leveling up If you’re always getting winded or don’t have enough agility to move and dodge and use the martial arts and spells like you’d like your armor may be weighing you down. I like to be at least a B tier (you tank tab over to the “status” menu to see how much your gear weighs. Typically the more protective gear weighs a lot more, and while protecting your HP, your movement and abilities may be hindered. So ideally you want a super lightweight armor set. Problem is, those super lightweight armor sets just don’t offer much defense. Yet. They don’t offer much yet. Take the assassins set, it’s initially weak as get out but is so light you’re weight status is A class, meaning you can run around and side like crazy. Thats what we want. But again, we don’t want the weak armor Sox kids, be sure to level those up. I’ve got chest armor that weighs 3 pounds or so, yet gives me over 100 defense and it’s still early in game, so I can move like the assassin ninja and ALSO have the defense needed. Point is this: picks few lightweight armor sets you can dig and level up over and over Of course you can always wear the heavy stuff and limit mobility, play a tank - like class but this game is all about the attack and movement. You need to be light and nimble. You can max out this ultimate weight limit by adding to the stone spell set level up (I think it’s stone off hand but best to double check)
Several good tips, thanks! But I don't think you need to mention that we should upgrade gear or pick up all loot... Don't underestimate your audience. 🙂
Make sure you use your followers. as much as you might want to complete the game solo, if you use followers, you lvl up your loyalty and when you get high enough,, they give you their armor/weapon sets.
@@CreativeGamingTH-cam u should never be in red equipment weight. That means your over encumbered. U really shouldn’t be yellow either because it really effects your dodges.
1st mistake is actually playing this buggy ass game. A real tip though is also use ur dragon essence, it permanently increases how much the pots heal for.
I'm on Series X and the first boss 2nd stage causes performance issues making my frame drop making my parry not activate. It's annoying. I hope they fix this frame issue.
ill give you a hint the first round attack aggressive, second round keep your distance until he does the critical hits and parry and when you can use your soirit use it and you will win
First phase, use your sword or other fast attack and just spam him. Second phase forget attacking completely. Just focus on dodging/blocking and running around until you see his red critical attack coming, learn the timing and press forward and parry as he is about to hit you. Do the fatal strike and rinse and repeat UNTIL you see the prompt to summon your spirit. That's how you win easily. If you waste time and hp trying to dmg him in second phase your life will be constant pain. Trust me this will get you through it.
So I have 16 out of the 17 Allie’s summoned and I only have 16 total I’ve done every mission in the game and I’m almost done with the next difficulty any ideas who the last ally is ?
Some tips I learned: 1 take breaks when frustrated 2. If you got your spirit animal gauge full using it can cancel red attacks. 3. Be patient not all red attacks have the same timing so learn the flow and don't get greedy!
You can get powerful magic but there’s no pure caster build in this game, you need to still physically attack and deflect the enemy to actually preform well and recharge your energy to deal more magic damage
you forgot number 6 --dont play this dumpster fire of a elden ring wanna be game set in Chinese mythos to begin with, i mean the first boss has a large arm that shoots fire in the 2nd stage.:D
This game sucks played for 2 hours it was boring you fight and do the same things over and over and over and over and over just was not my kinda game I play games for fun and enjoyment this game was extremely lacking In both
AWESOME TIPS All of these were a big help since I have never in my life played any video game, just got this one. Then youtube knew that despite me never playing anything and recommended your channel. Great job👍
Lmao biggest mistake is that you did not explain level up don’t matter you can be level 40 Go up against a 50 morale is what really counts the stats is more for weapon scaling noob
1. Can't deflect when over-encumbered. Watch your weight!
2. Use block and deflect.
3. Animal spirit resonation can be better than summoning the actual spirit.
4. You can change settings so it will list weapons or armor by subcategory. Example: sword, spear, axe, etc.
5. GO TO INVENTORY to LOCK equipment, or check new items quickly.
6. Give the pandas 1 item from inventory. (Hit drop).
7. LB boss will skill check your deflect skills and spirit attack knowledge; be patient.

SAME

REALLY REALLY EASY
@just a Fish I sometimes wish deflect and dodge weren't the same button, especially when you're light on weight and the enemy spams a 6 hit combo. 🙃
@@RottenIf_Zombie get gud son.

The first boss was crazy hard but after him walked through the next levels 2 mini bosses 1 monkey boss and main boss like nothing.

Take the assassins set, it’s initially weak as get out but is so light you’re weight status is A class, meaning you can run around and side like crazy.
Thats what we want. But again, we don’t want the weak armor
Sox kids, be sure to level those up. I’ve got chest armor that weighs 3 pounds or so, yet gives me over 100 defense and it’s still early in game, so I can move like the assassin ninja and ALSO have the defense needed.
Point is this: picks few lightweight armor sets you can dig and level up over and over
Of course you can always wear the heavy stuff and limit mobility, play a tank - like class but this game is all about the attack and movement. You need to be light and nimble.
You can max out this ultimate weight limit by adding to the stone spell set level up (I think it’s stone off hand but best to double check)

Some tips I learned: 1 take breaks when frustrated 2. If you got your spirit animal gauge full using it can cancel red attacks. 3. Be patient not all red attacks have the same timing so learn the flow and don't get greedy!
can you make a pure caster build ? or u gotta have a melee weapon
You can get powerful magic but there’s no pure caster build in this game, you need to still physically attack and deflect the enemy to actually preform well and recharge your energy to deal more magic damage
YEP!
Crossbows are great for wizards
YEP
Lu bo bow scales with fire
Got armor and I can't backflip or dodge like I did in the beginning
You are too heavy either level up Earth or change your gear
Also, I managed to play through the first playthrough with 3 pots.
power through the first half of the game. 2nd half of the game is a complete cakewalk
Damn. Time to make wo long videos myself with “duh no shit” common sense tips and rack them subs and views
Wow.. there are a lot of new players to this type of game, and this is stuff I didn't focus on early in the game and it would have helped. Comeon man
Low equipment weight at 85% ??
I was fine using that weight. Now I used a earth build and realize how fast I am. Definitley put point in Earth on this build now for me lol
Lmao beat it in 10 tries thought that was a struggle
These are basic mechanics dawgs if you ain't doin these then you shouldn't be playing this typa game!!! 💯💯💯😂
Agreed lol but this was my first time playing this kind of game. People who have never played this kind of game need to learn the game
I feel everything you said, anyone with a brain knew about.

If you had a brain you’d understand why he made this video
I feel like most of these tips are pretty self explanatory.

IS THAT NOT ALOT
you forgot number 6 --dont play this dumpster fire of a elden ring wanna be game set in Chinese mythos to begin with, i mean the first boss has a large arm that shoots fire in the 2nd stage.:D
This is all common sense lol
Just further proves these games are bullshit.
Don't worry, I soon after failed a boss about 50 times at least.
First tips obvious
This game sucks played for 2 hours it was boring you fight and do the same things over and over and over and over and over just was not my kinda game I play games for fun and enjoyment this game was extremely lacking In both
We should tell the devs to stop doing this by releasing games in such a broken state that we don't want to buy it.
Agreed, with people raided their HQ and set everything on fire, that's what they deserve for being so lazy and greedy
@@wallacesousuke1433 Yeah because that makes up the majority of their fans and buyers huh? Moron.
This game is so ez lol
..
The map sucks
AWESOME TIPS
All of these were a big help since I have never in my life played any video game, just got this one. Then youtube knew that despite me never playing anything and recommended your channel. Great job👍
Thanks!
@@CreativeGamingTH-cam unbelievable
@@swingtity9798 lol
Lmao biggest mistake is that you did not explain level up don’t matter you can be level 40 Go up against a 50 morale is what really counts the stats is more for weapon scaling noob
Alright then, beat the whole game at level 1 with no NPCs or summons and we'll talk, big guy c:
Lol that’s what I’m saying, the point was to not waste your XP brother
Ol only person says use water its ussles this why every one says last i have 1 point in it and 15 plus in all others for me not needed at all
