Nioh NG Any% AMM with DLC Notes & FAQ

-----------------------------------------------------

Nioh NG Any% & All Main Missions with DLC Notes & FAQ

-----------------------------------------------------

 

What's the difference between Any% and All Main Missions?

-Now this maybe a disputed matter, but here is my take:

Any% is from the start of NG to the credits (cutscenes before, since timer doesn't move) after beating Yamata no Orochi, whereas AMM ends after beating Hundred Eyes, the boss of the last main mission of the base game. Traditionally Any% has consisted of the time between the start of NG and the start of the credits. Just because this game has one more story related main mission after the credits that has a concluding cutscene (but no credits), does not mean it should be the end of Any% over the credits.

 

What's the difference between PC and PS4?

-Mostly just the fact that PC uses RTA no load, so it's a different category from PS4, which is RTA and is affected by factors such as having a PS4 Pro, boost mode, old patch disc, SSD, pre-order DLC etc.

 

What patch is this?

-Current patch

 

What is Living Weapon?

-Living Weapon (indicated by the top-left Guardian Spirit icon) is a move you activate with use and strong attack buttons. Once the gauge is full, you can use it and it will change your HP/Ki bars into one and makes you invincible until the bar is consumed and allows infinite ki usage. It is consumed faster if you get hit or use Ki Pulse. The startup has i-frames as well.

 

What weapons/armor do you use?

-Sword, Spear, Kusarigama and Odachi. The only armor used is the Onmyou casting speed increasing hat you get after The Demon of Mount Hiei

 

What Samurai skills/Ninjutsu/Onmyou magic do you get?

-Sword: Iai, Morning Moon, Waterfall, Shadow Strike

-Spear: Entangle

-Kusarigama: Grapple, Reaper, Summer Twilight

-Odachi: Tail Strike, Imperative Strike

-Weakness, Kekkai, Water/Wind/Earth buffs, Sloth, Guardian Talisman

-No ninjutsu

 

What Guardian Spirits are used?

-Kato (saves from fire in Isle of Demons, high dmg, good Guardian attack, skip in Immortal Flame, scorch)

-Fuse-ushi (Guardian attack knocks down humans)

-Kara-jishi (skill dmg [Reaper])

-Suzaku (saves from dying, amazing Guardian attack)

 

Why do you inherit the clan?

-Because runners have agreed that having a savefile that has already chosen a clan (which is inheritable through the system data on all savefiles) is allowed. We use Shima (+11.5% Close combat dmg (enemy with status) and +10% Proficiency bonus). However going online and grinding glory for the clan with a file may cause the bonuses to grow, which is prohibited. This is why you should run offline.

 

Are there RNG drops?

-Yes, the Sword from Onryoki/Hinoenma, better Kusarigama throughout and a good Odachi, as well as weapon for Kelleyshige.

 

Are there glitches or skips?

There is one in the Ogress' level, but it's not worth it as you need a dojo and it's difficult (only saves about 30s which is wasted in doing the dojo anyway). You can use the Guardian Talisman/Amulet to hit an explosive barrel through the wall to break it at the start of Saika's level, and to hit the rotating room trigger in Giant Toad's level through a door. Two door clips are found in Obsidian Samurai's level.

 

How does the Iai strat work?

-You knock down a human boss with either the Spear's Entangle or Fuse-ushi's Guardian attack, go behind them, cast Weakness and hold Iai down until max and release, dash to the side, pull out gun quickly by tapping and hold and release Iai, repeat. It works because they get knocked down by a fully-charged Iai in the back and the gun allows you to cancel the sheathing animation. Some bosses like Saika and Maria require the sheathing to be successful, otherwise it will fail. You can use Fuse-ushi to knock them down again if need be.
