Thunderous Spear AccessoriesĪccessories are a bit of a strange mix in Nioh 2, and you might find that you’ll use something you didn’t think you would, just because it’s available here and you rarely find the perfect Accessory. Look for any bonuses that reduce Ki usage, and Temper for these if you want. Once you can face Honda Tadakatsu you’ll want to farm the Warrior of the East Armor and Tombokiri until you have the pieces you want. It’s also Heavy Armor so it’ll allow you to play in the same manor as that of the Warrior of the East’s Honor Set. You likely won’t have a spear at this point so you’ll need to use the Lightning Talisman to gain this effect when you are facing tough to kill Yokai or Bosses. Thunderous Spear ArmorĮarly on in the game you’ll want to look for the Golden Boy Set as this will help to increase your Lightning Damage and melee damage vs. You’ll have points in Strength and Skill making Hand Cannons a good choice, but what you use here is really up to you and how you play. Essentially, you want anything that will reduce the Ki you use, because you will use a ton Blocking and Attacking.įor Ranged Weapons you can use whatever you like. Look for Quick Attack Ki Consumption, or Low Attack Ki Consumption, and Block or Low Guard Consumption. When you use Spearfall to kill weak enemies, Ki is not as much of a concern since things die fast, so we don’t really need Ki in High Stance. Once you reach Region 3 you can face Honda Tadakatsu in the Horns on Head, Dragonfly in Hand Sub mission to farm this Spear and the Warrior of the East’s Honor Set that goes with it.īonuses you want on the Tombokiri are things that reduce Ki cost, primarily in Low Stance since that’s where you’ll really need the Ki the most. There are no Spear sets early on in the game, so you won’t have access to the Tombokiri immediately. The spear you want to use for this Build early on is whichever one you can find that you like the most like a Yokai Spear or one with Lightning Imbued into it if possible. Thunderous Spear Weapons, Armor & Accessoriesīecause your main Stats for this Build are Stamina, Constitution, Strength and Skill, it makes a lot of sense to use a Spear, since it scales off of 3 of these. Then comes Strength and Skill which further boost damage, as well as give you things like increased Ki Pulse, which helps with Ki management.
High Constitution gives you a lot of Health and increases damage with the Spear the best. Until then you just want to make sure you have enough to be below 100%. This will take such a huge investment you likely won’t reach this until around level 70 or so when you can respec. Stamina is needed to use Heavy Armor effectively, lowering Equipment Load, and we want enough points here to keep at 70%. It focuses on, Stamina, Constitution, Strength and Skill.
The Thunderous Spear Build uses several stats since we wear Heavy Armor and wield a Spear. Additionally, Low Stance combos cost less Ki, which makes it possible to attack and then Block afterwards. You’ll use Low Stance on most Yokai that are harder to kill, allowing for longer combos that drain more Ki than High Stance. The last hit of Spearfall will knock Humans to the ground, allowing you to hit them with a Final Blow. High Stance is used to dispatch easy to kill enemies quickly, such as Gaki or Humans. The way this Build works is that you will begin combat with either High or Low Stance depending on your opponent. The focus of this Build is using Low Stance so that you conserve your Ki when you attack, so that you can then Block afterwards without becoming Winded. Lightning plays a minor role in this Build, but it does allow you to set the Shocked Status Effect, slowing enemy attacks. The Thunderous Spear combination of Heavy Armor and a Spear that allows you to not only Block most attacks done to you, but to also unleash a devastating barrage of attacks that keep enemies pressured and debuffed.
This Build will be updated as I reach higher levels of the game and more equipment becomes available. This is a starter/mid game Build meant for players just beginning Nioh 2, or for those that are early to mid game and are having trouble. I’ll be showing you where to place your Stats and Skill Points to get the maximum impact for this Build, as well what equipment to use, and which Guardian Spirit and Soul Cores to have.
