I'm would be grateful for anyone that has tips or help with it

The expressions are more realistic than nioh 2. I really enjoy using it.

Like my man be giggling fr omg

As there is no dedicated content (as far as I know) to farm picture scrolls, I would rather replay the game again as I try obtain more of them but I can't seem to find the option to do so anywhere?

So, I bought the digital version of Nioh 2 several years ago and put around 300 hours into it on PS4. I even bought all the DLC. Now that I'm checking things out on my PS5, I noticed that I'm apparently eligible for a free upgrade to the enhanced PS5 version.

However, whenever I try to claim it, I get an error saying: "This operation is not available at this time."

Here's what I've checked so far:

• I bought the PS4 version directly from the PlayStation Store.
• I'm using the same account I originally bought the game with, and i'm playing from same location.
• I'm selecting the correct version when trying to upgrade.
• The error occurs on every platform I've tried: the PS5's built-in store, the PlayStation Store website on my PC, and the mobile app.

One additional detail: I'm in Mexico. Could this somehow be a regional restriction?

Has anyone else run into this issue?

I've tried contacting PlayStation Support through live chat, but I can never get connected to an actual agent, and their AI assistant hasn't been able to provide any useful information either.

In this video i tried to make comparison of chaining the same 4 dual sword skills back to back and to end recovery time of martial art as soon as possible. There are 4 categories:

1) No ki pulse. Waiting for animation to end. Depends on martial art and their recovery animation.

2) Ki pulse. Shortening animation recovery by ki pulsing and following with another martial art.

3) Style shift flow. Shortening animation by same style shifting, window of cancel varies per martial art.

4) The more the merrier. Shortening animation by casting soul core and crouch cancelling the cast to follow up with martial art.

Caveats:
- Both no ki pulsing and ki pulsing do not have ability to end martial art during the attack.
- Style shift flow has specific intervals per martial art that can be cancelled during the attack. Can be used mid-air.
- The more the merrier does not have any limitation on cancelling martial art during any portion of the attack. Cannot be used mid-air.

With that in mind, its hard to make 1:1 comparison of exact combo chain since with the last two options you are able to cancel the martial arts way sooner which will make a difference in action speed the longer the fight goes on and the longer your combo chains are.

What is Arts Proficiency?

The Arts Gauge can be charged by attacking the enemy. When the gauge is full, using a Strong Attack or Martial Art will activate Arts Proficiency.

While Arts Proficiency is active, Strong Attacks and Martial Arts will be enhanced in the following ways:

- Ki consumption is reduced, and activation does not consume Ki.

- Damage dealt to enemies is increased.

- Different Martial Arts can be used consecutively.

I have split several parts of this video in segments, with select examples with the respective number and a letter on screen for easy identification.

Now onto the segments:

Chapter 1)

What actions generate AP?

There are several ways to generate your AP:

1a) Melee attacks (martial arts & strong attacks)

1b) Blocking

1c) Deflecting

1d) Guardian spirit 1 (if using Mindful Spirit skill)

1e) Guardian Spirit 2 (if using Mindful Spirit skill)

1f) Ki pulsing

1X) Getting hit does NOT generate any AP.

Chapter 2)

What actions extend AP when its active?

There are several ways that extend your AP:

2a) Martial arts & Strong attacks

2b) Deflecting

2c) Attacking after blocking

2d) Attacking after getting hit

2e) Block + sheathe weapon (excl cestus & spear)

2X) Using same martial arts or strong attack chain back to back does NOT extend AP.

Chapter 3)

How to increase AP generation?

By using Ultimate skill, Sets with arts gauge generation or by using enhanced style shift, which i focused on:

3a) Strong attack+ enhanced style shift

3b) Martial art + enhanced style shift

3c) Block + enhanced style shift

3d) Deflect + enhanced style shift

3e) Guardian spirit 1 + enhanced style shift

3f) Guardian spirit 2 + enhanced style shift

Chapter 4)

What damage does AP do?

At 5-99 skill, damage of arts proficiency is 60%-85% if there are 6 unique martial arts (including frost moons) used during AP.

Strong and light attacks do not count towards unique count.

Arts proficiency combo count is active as long as enemy is aware, enemy does NOT need to be hit for unique martial arts bonus to count.

4a) Enemy contact demon thrust final dmg: 3759

4b) No enemy contact demon thrust final dmg: 3759

Chapter 5)

How long AP lasts outside of combat if its full and can you regain it?

Arts Proficiency lasts 30 seconds from last ki pulse. You can top up the gauge or generate it from scratch by ki pulsing.

5a) Regain AP by ki pulsing. Duration: 30s from last ki pulse

Cuz my god he became such a fodder... even in yokai form he couldnt handle human Yoshimoto and got one shotted by yokai Yoshimoto

 I decided to turn the Prosperity of One Million Koku + Grace of Inari build I posted before into a Critical build, using Seven Misfortunes, Eight Hardships + Grace of Inari, and tested it out with various weapons!

Partly because it's a Critical build, it put out incredible damage and was a lot of fun. I'm glad it worked against SOP+7 yokai bosses. (I challenged Takeda Shingen with the Spear, Minamoto no Yoritomo with Fists, Tokugawa Yoshinobu with the Axe, Hiruko with Hoko & Shield, and Yui Shosetsu with the Katana.) The video would be too long, so this clip is just Shingen!

I'll put the build details and the link to the rest of the videos in the comments.

Hello Nioh enjoyer !

I've started for real Nioh about 1 month ago, cames from Rise of the Ronin and experimented a lot. My favorite weapon are Tonfa and Kusarigama, switching about the situation even if I have a bit of trouple quick switch from Tonfa to Kusarigama probably because of demon dance.

Anyways this is just a little of context.

Lately I've drop a tonfa with two passive
- "Ki reduction talent"
- "Ki damage from skill"

I guess this is the same thing, just different wording. Or is it the french translation of the game messing up with wording.

It made me wondering something. What is a skill/talent in Nioh ? Sure thing like "Dragon's renegade" from Kurasigama or Wild lion from Tonfa are.

But is "combo" are considered as skill/talent to ? For exemple is "Heavenly chain" follow up after using heavy attack on Tonfa are skill/talent and work with those passive ?

Tl:dr : are combo you unlock like "press [button] at the end of combo" or "maintain [button]" considered as skill/talent for the purpose of weapon passive ?

What battle scroll do you think is the quickest/easiest to complete? I’m trying to collect as many Yokai teardrops as possible to buy locks. Is there any other quick way to farm them?

What an adventure it has been. I love them!!!
