@@ericrinehart477 im wondering this aswell. was initially gona cheese new pc playthrough with a ninja build but this looks way funner but seems to be end game gear dependent with those stat re rolls though tbh.
Can you confirm if Grapple Damage is applied to Izuna Drop? i have seen Izuna Drop has its own roll (rare as that might be) so Id love to know if the basic GD works with IZ. Thanks.
Thanks so much for showcasing this. I've been prepping a few graces to try a Ame and Susanoo build but now I don't have to. This is exactly what I was looking for. It's not anima spam. It's not Nin spam. And it's not onmyo buff/debuff reliant, clearly indicated by your bare minimum Dex/Magic stats. This is pure, unadulltered, fisticuffs, the way God intended. I wasn't sure if it was possible on DotW but thank you so much for giving me a hope. I can't wait to turn Nioh into a Dead or Alive game.
Thank you for making this man! I'm really enjoying the new DLC. Seems like a lot of people have burnt out of Nioh 2. Even tho a lot of my old problems with the game have been resolved
These videos Inspire me to pick up weapons I never thought i'd play with, god your videos are so satisfying to watch. Saw you uploaded another Nioh video a week ago, i know you're probably pretty burnt out at this point but I'm looking forward to your next upload even if it's not Nioh related. Appreciate builds!.
@Xenoswarm I’ve been using your ultimate tonfa build pre DLC and It works fantastic. I was wondering are you going to update it concerning that Tengu got horrible nerved post dlc? Or can I still use that build with some minor changes? Keep up the good work 👍🏾
Love this build and loving fists. Do you think you would be able to make a build around yokai fists and that corruption set? Been looking at all the stuff corruption got and wondering how well it could be optimised
great video. I'm still transitioning into etheral gear , and versatility is for sure easy to stack up alongside the weapons own buff. like faster than i imagine without even thinking about it. so benz is for sure still viable. though this KI control is SUPER GOOD.
@xenoswarm . Hey dude, appreciate all the videos. Im sure your are going to make another "immortal swordsman" which will be awesome!. Heres a few ideas I've come up with that may or not not inyerest you; the combination of; Honda clan, wild boar helm, ultimate constitution, 3 piece shibata, 7 piece acala, 3 piece genji bloodline, veterans, boar spirit, onroyoki, dual swords and the standard life recovery omnyos. Insane damage mitigation and survival for sure, keep up the good work!
The damage on your rotation is wild. I'm still trucking through dotd so i dont have access to graves but I've started using the Samurai Noble set, since it gives excellent ki damage and finishing flair. I totally slept on Limitless, because like you said, fists take so much ki to maintain. I'd also recommend Oh as a guardian spirit if you're not using the brave demon fists, because it seems to pop purity nearly as quick as the fox spirit pops corruption
every time you upload a video I watch it at least 35 times in the same day, I understand all the bonuses you have equip and their reasons but your Build's are so interesting that I have become addicted
So I just learned today that you can change what stat certain weapons scale with...There's so much I don't know about this game even though I finished the main story and most side-quests. Looking forward to new game plus and the final DLC.
Great build great vid thanks for the efforts Not sure ill be using the marici to me 07 p take looks more adapted to my style since i am not good with cancels. Gs why use the new gs to apply corruption while not using corruption fists they have instant buff once awakened maybe ill use blue dragon for lighting build. I found immovable submission good for ethereal ranged farming also saika clan scroll is really good with your ki damage it will be piece of cake I found that accessories are the key of every build since they are the hardest to farm. Looking for your upcoming videos and streams.
A lot of ppl complaining about this build being hard to get. Not difficult. If you play nioh seriously enough to min-max. Then you’re already at 1,000+ hours and this gear isn’t hard. 1. Forge divine version of Brave gear 2. Accessories should have: luck weapon/armor ea 3. Use wise scroll with onryoki and farm him HARD!!!!! A ton of times. Even apply a stone so you can get more ethereal accessories. By the end of that. You will have plenty of ethereal brave drops and enough graces gear to make your own set. Wise difficulty is awesome cause it forces you to be flexible and creative. Don’t mimic this build exactly. Take the base idea and run with it.
You can farm the Saika clan in the beginning of the mission where you have to fight a big cow/fly yokai at the end, in DAWN. They drop mostly ranged weapon
I did that already in previous difficulties, problem is they drop mostly rifles that are already part of a set so I was hoping there was a better method
I'd really like to do this build but I'm starting a brand new playthrough to learn fists. What should the stat prio be for before ng+ and dlc ? Since I won't run into courage fists for awhile
So from my understanding. I can have a Devine accessory and upgrade it to ethereal? All I have to do is use a stone of penance and it will do it’s magic. Right? What about if I wanna change graces
Im new to nioh 2 and this video makes me want to play fists. I cant seem to get them figured out. They feel so weak compared to the other weapons. Not many beginner builds for this game lol. Love the builds though!!!
Looks awesome. You got a sub. If you don't have ultimate courage, could you instead swap the electrified set with one of the other sets that have active skill ki consumption or ki recovery to compensate for the lack of ultimate courage?
Death dancer with dual wield poison build works really well for me. Recently I switched to death dancer and versatility, but not liking as much. Versatility is a bit of work to get the stacks.
For anyone scared to try the build due to it looking unobtainable. It wasn't hard to build and I didn't complete dream of the demon before I started this build last week. I just finished majority of the build without all the star skills and it destroies humans and handles humans well(only lvl 360 btw). Just get the armor set on dream of the demon and get a scroll with increase Ethereal drops. Hardest part was getting the courage on the weapon. Gave up forging for it after 100 tries. Just re roll weapons with a big sudma. This will even transform some of the weapons to ranged so you can try your luck getting your Grace's there.
scroll with etheral drop up and accessories with lucky drop weapons. will nurf your build to farm as if you just run 1 melee and 2 ranged it will drop more rifles/ cannons than usual. did this to grind out my second rifle for my death dancer.
This is my favorite build you have done so far, followed by your sword/dual sword build. Amazing builds + superb combat. I really hope they make a Nioh 3 or some company creates a game that has combat mechanics like this. The mechanics are the reason I keep playingt. I am definitely going to buy Nioh 2 remastered when I finally get my hands on a PS5
Max capacity for Ninjutsu and Omny increases past 100. 40 capacity at 200 stat. Agree on versatility. The hazle to get the stats from stance dancing abilities instead of focus on hard hitting abilities, ends up with similar result with less thought process behind it. Versatility might be better when you start doing stone of penance +5 runs but prior to that its not, and even with that, its a matter of preference. I personally cant stand versatility since I dont want to be forced into stance dancing, something I do most of the time but when I want to, when it needs to be done, not cause I have to. I personally use Tsu set, omnyo set with melee builds for endless abilities and an on demand damage buff since as soon as you use an ability, you have the damage buff active at max capacity for around 20 seconds, and during that time if you attack enough, you get the spell back, to the point it can reset all the way back until what you invested in Jutsu. I think its a sleeper strong build but the Ninjutsu version is equally strong. That on demand 20-25% dmg buff is really strong. Coupled with quality of life traits all over.
wait..... wait.... wait wait wait hold on..... how long have i been gone and didnt know they've released a "Monk class" gear set.... what....?! i'll be back on later after work...
Yea luckily I only needed 1 inheritance which was for the chest piece, I'm like 70% done with this build I just need ranged weapons with the right grace and proper yata and yasa
Because I use Reckless Charge in midstance and Limitless in high stance. I'll probably start adding more layers with low stance into the combos eventually, and bring stomp into the rotation but the weapon is new and im trying to learn a lot of techniques in a short space of time.
@Xenoswarm Hey bud its been a while, I actually just got the DLCS, I am starting brand new and thought I would do this build, can you in short explain how I should level, stats, gear set, blah blah blah? Thanks!
I'm loving the game after killing the third boss, but it feels almost overwhelming everything there is to learn about it. Like I'm never gonna be able to understand how it all works. I see the comments and there are almost endless options, weapons and skills I have never heard off 🤣
Hmm at the moment I try this build with kingo, cause you also have bonus Ki Dmg and 10% final blow dmg. Kingo looks better for me but I think that you better know what you are doing :D
Does anyone have suggestions for making a fist build on dream of the strong? Btw I'm kind of a noob when it comes to knowing about the way all the stats add up.

Why no Split Staff build video?
What would be best for leveling up a new charcter starting with fist weapons what stats should I go for as I level?
@@ericrinehart477 im wondering this aswell. was initially gona cheese new pc playthrough with a ninja build but this looks way funner but seems to be end game gear dependent with those stat re rolls though tbh.
discord link isn't working? Also what do the stats look like at 750?
Can you confirm if Grapple Damage is applied to Izuna Drop? i have seen Izuna Drop has its own roll (rare as that might be) so Id love to know if the basic GD works with IZ. Thanks.
You know it's insane when you have to ask yourself if you're even playing the same game. Good show.

As a brand new Nioh player, this guide has completely blown my mind. Thank you

Ren Hayabusa: "Are you friend or foe? Let me put you to the test!"
Xeno : "No you"
Thanks for not trying to be the first person posting about the weapons and showing us an actual guide 🙂
Great rotation on your combo.....very detailed and precise
This build looks like a lot of fun. Good stuff.
Thank you for making this man! I'm really enjoying the new DLC. Seems like a lot of people have burnt out of Nioh 2. Even tho a lot of my old problems with the game have been resolved
Absolute obliteration. Love the guide and the sheer detail of it!
Just when I thought my build was pretty good, I see this. Amazing! Nice work.
These videos Inspire me to pick up weapons I never thought i'd play with, god your videos are so satisfying to watch. Saw you uploaded another Nioh video a week ago, i know you're probably pretty burnt out at this point but I'm looking forward to your next upload even if it's not Nioh related. Appreciate builds!.
Hope you get the best of rest ma dude. Thanks for this badass build.
One of the best fists build I’ve seen around here
I see Izuna drop, i press like.
This build is absolutely nutty dude, I never thought I’d be doing the solo mission duels in way of the wise but here I am 😂 thank you!!
Gonna Buy This Game When I Get Off Work And Im Definitely Going With This Weapon/Build! Thanks For The Awesome Video!
Amazing build dude love the fist weapons
im watching summoners war ( One Shot Day: Shaman ) and this video comes up :p
thanks Xenos
@Xenoswarm I’ve been using your ultimate tonfa build pre DLC and It works fantastic. I was wondering are you going to update it concerning that Tengu got horrible nerved post dlc? Or can I still use that build with some minor changes? Keep up the good work 👍🏾
Amazing build! Keep it up
RETURN OF THE MACK!!!!!!
you helped me to see the beauty of this game
It's been a long five days waiting for this
Hope it didn't disappoint~
Great vid, im looking forward for your purity focused build.

Woah awesome
YO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This build looks fucking nutty! The way you play is like something straight out of an anime hahah, good shit man!
@xenoswarm . Hey dude, appreciate all the videos. Im sure your are going to make another "immortal swordsman" which will be awesome!. Heres a few ideas I've come up with that may or not not inyerest you; the combination of; Honda clan, wild boar helm, ultimate constitution, 3 piece shibata, 7 piece acala, 3 piece genji bloodline, veterans, boar spirit, onroyoki, dual swords and the standard life recovery omnyos. Insane damage mitigation and survival for sure, keep up the good work!
Woooow Amazing Video !!!!! Love it !
Thanks!
Feels like blade and soul holy shjt
The damage on your rotation is wild.

End game builds look so fun just getting there is the problem this takes real time and dedication to achieve
🔥🔥🔥✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾awesome job fam!!
Thanks!
Came for the pile driver, stayed for the knowledge.
the boss whenever this dude show up :
"Why am i hearing the boss music?"
More like, "Wait , this is not my theme!".
"I like your funny words magic man!" 4 piece hayabusa and 4 piece Susan or ama set is good to but mostly for a quick burst
i love ki damage builds and this sir, its a very very nice one
Glad you enjoy it!
every time you upload a video I watch it at least 35 times in the same day, I understand all the bonuses you have equip and their reasons but your Build's are so interesting that I have become addicted
Where the fuck do I get the demon horade from?
Hey very helpful guide

Guy sensei I will honor your legacy. Behold....THE POWER OF YOUTH!!! Definitely gotta try this out holy shit
Gorgeous video, what songs did you use for the video especially the second one
Great !
Great ! A good build
Glad you like it!
Dang I can’t imagine how long it took you to roll those star stats on your gears. Nice build tho
I'm just curious. How did you do that animation cancel? Nice video.
Great build great vid thanks for the efforts
Not sure ill be using the marici to me 07 p take looks more adapted to my style since i am not good with cancels.
Gs why use the new gs to apply corruption while not using corruption fists they have instant buff once awakened maybe ill use blue dragon for lighting build.
I found immovable submission good for ethereal ranged farming also saika clan scroll is really good with your ki damage it will be piece of cake
I found that accessories are the key of every build since they are the hardest to farm.
Looking for your upcoming videos and streams.

Finally!
09:30, haha I feel you, I accidentally replaced a my Tsukuyomi with non ethereal grace, TWICE! ://
Alright, the standards have been set!
I'd really like to do this build but I'm starting a brand new playthrough to learn fists. What should the stat prio be for before ng+ and dlc ? Since I won't run into courage fists for awhile
Fist weapon is just OP man
Wow your Build looks interesting.
I was watching your sword video earlier, do you prefer this build over the sword/dual sword build you made?
Nice, subbed.
Thanks for the sub!
There's a lot of appreciations in the comments I appreciate there comments and your showcasing thank you
Any recommendations for first play-through builds that haven't been nerf-ed?
Damn man i want this game on PC now!!!!
Any recommendations on what to use early on for gear and cores?
cant wait for more fist build. btw, you can cap jutsu at 40 now with more points in dex/magic.
The Jutsu Capacity was stopping at 30 points for me o_O
So from my understanding. I can have a Devine accessory and upgrade it to ethereal? All I have to do is use a stone of penance and it will do it’s magic. Right? What about if I wanna change graces
Good fist build
Im new to nioh 2 and this video makes me want to play fists. I cant seem to get them figured out. They feel so weak compared to the other weapons. Not many beginner builds for this game lol. Love the builds though!!!
Maeda Toshiie at 0:45 : Am I going to lose to this wretch...!?
Me: Yes, yes you are.
Looks awesome. You got a sub. If you don't have ultimate courage, could you instead swap the electrified set with one of the other sets that have active skill ki consumption or ki recovery to compensate for the lack of ultimate courage?
I'm sure you've got it by now, but I would just keep farming the scrolls until it shows up, it really shouldn't take too long!
@@Xenoswarm I've been unlucky with the rolls so I ended up getting one via coop. 🙂
I’d definitely like to see your take on a death dancer build
Death dancer with dual wield poison build works really well for me. Recently I switched to death dancer and versatility, but not liking as much. Versatility is a bit of work to get the stacks.
Damn this exact build would also work very well with tonfa if you wanted to switch out weapons.
Man, that's cool as fuck. I'm trying to get into h2h now. Trying to understand them-- seems like there's more to them, then how I play. Thank you!
For anyone scared to try the build due to it looking unobtainable. It wasn't hard to build and I didn't complete dream of the demon before I started this build last week.

Finally a game where fist fighting is viable and great looking!
Bout time a build drops xD
Oh my lord
im trying to make this build but i was wondering... wont purity be a good idea? purity and lightning seems to me a good ki nightmare for foes
scroll with etheral drop up and accessories with lucky drop weapons. will nurf your build to farm as if you just run 1 melee and 2 ranged it will drop more rifles/ cannons than usual.
did this to grind out my second rifle for my death dancer.
Switching from my odachi build to this

I really hope they make a Nioh 3 or some company creates a game that has combat mechanics like this. The mechanics are the reason I keep playingt.

Their civil war at the end of the Edo period would be a good setting.

i love this build! Do you have full stats of lv 750 ?
OH WOW
Nice
wait..... wait.... wait wait wait hold on..... how long have i been gone and didnt know they've released a "Monk class" gear set.... what....?! i'll be back on later after work...
This is how I play the game in my mind but in reality...........
Man getting orange inheritables to drop is so darn difficult.. Love this build but the farm is insane!
Yea luckily I only needed 1 inheritance which was for the chest piece, I'm like 70% done with this build I just need ranged weapons with the right grace and proper yata and yasa
Hold the phone... You can roll a skill that changes the stat your weapon scales with? Or is that skill exclusive to that weapon?
Great build bro 😳💪
🤝
Nice as always, but why no stomp in your rotation?
Because I use Reckless Charge in midstance and Limitless in high stance. I'll probably start adding more layers with low stance into the combos eventually, and bring stomp into the rotation but the weapon is new and im trying to learn a lot of techniques in a short space of time.
@Xenoswarm Hey bud its been a while, I actually just got the DLCS, I am starting brand new and thought I would do this build, can you in short explain how I should level, stats, gear set, blah blah blah? Thanks!

What is that skill you use to apply weakness? Is that from the ninjutsu tree?
When I look at the cover image, I wish that it was actually a nioh boss.
Wacky woohoo pizza man
So, like a better version of tonfas?
I didn't quite understand how the mystic art "Unbowed" works... Tips? Get 10 is so hard
Hmm at the moment I try this build with kingo, cause you also have bonus Ki Dmg and 10% final blow dmg.
Kingo looks better for me but I think that you better know what you are doing :D
How’d u get elemental damage on ur helmet it won’t pop up when I’m trying to temper for it
Is there other armor that i can use than demon horde cuirass? It seems i dont have pre order item
Does anyone have suggestions for making a fist build on dream of the strong? Btw I'm kind of a noob when it comes to knowing about the way all the stats add up.
If I'm starting new and don't have access to the dlc yet what stat should I aim for? Still courage and heart?
I pushed heart to 25 and it helped me a lot in the early game
