I don't understand why anyone would overlook any of the charms, strikes, or hot springs. What I think most players overlook is their travels outfit (also boosts material gains), hunting animals, and boosting their quiver. The travelers outfit, at full power also boosts resources. Killing deer and other animals gives you leather and predator hides. Finally... Here's the thing about the bow, the short bow and the long bow. There striking power doesn't matter. With the short bow, even with no upgrades, a head shot to an unhelmeted head is an instant kill shot. The long bow kills anyone with a headshot, helmeted or not. But both only have so many arrows. To truely increase the effectiveness of either bow, they need more arrows, not damage per arrow. And for that you need to upgrade the quiver at a trapper.

Another good tip is that the smoke bombs don't just give you a way to escape if you're surrounded and being overwhelmed by a bunch of enemies; you can also use them offensively. The smoke bombs stun enemies and open them up to assassinations, which means you can get a one-hit insta-kill. I use this a lot to take out brutes. And if you have the Chain Assassination ability unlocked, you can use a smoke bomb to instantly take out three enemies in the middle of a fight. So let's say you're traveling to an objective and you see one of those random troops of Mongols going down the road, and there are like six of them. If you initiate a standoff and have the fully upgraded standoff streak, you can instantly take out three of them (or even five with the Sakai armor), and then when the other three close in, you can pop a smoke bomb and do a chain assassin to instantly take them out.

I just finished my second playthrough on my PS5. If you are wondering when to go to Iki Island, I suggest going to the island when you are 1/2 to 3/4 finished the second act. What you get there is not only more skill points to use and some interesting amour but also abilities and armor for your horse. Play Iki to the end and collect everything you can (note one shrine you won't be able to complete until after the end of the second act due to an armor set you will get then and the shrines just give you some cool cosmetics).

It's a godsend when farming for precious predator hides early on. The longbow does not come to you until many many hours in, and while it's a powerful beast it is more situational.

Wind chimes also have a shrine reward that turn them into a poison bomb. Lure someone into a hidden spot, use it with that charm, you can wipe out entire bases with just chimes, especially since wind chimes are very commonly supplied in nearly all bases.

As a guy who Platinum’d this game and replayed it way too many times out of boredom: Here’s some mistakes I did that I hope some people out there did as well lol 1. Don’t forget - you’re breaking your code. I always go in fights and YOLO everytime, and always forget I’m the Ghost with Kunais and WOTF. In most of my playthroughs, I rarely used my utilities, I don’t even use my bow. 2. Fully upgrading your tanto - Might as well save those extra resources for your katana rather than making your Tanto level 3. 3. Resolve’s More Important - unless you’re playing easy or medium diff; resolve’s going to help you more in harder difficulties. You can have max health in Hard or Lethal and you’ll die if you get hit 3 to 4 times. In my first playthrough(Hard), I deeply regret fighting Temuge with 5 resolve with the max health you can get in that act. I died so much in that fight. 4. Mizu No Kami charm. No explanation needed. Unless you’re good af. Played my whole first playthrough without even knowing this charm existed. Saved me a bunch when going for platinum.

The short bow is particularly broken on Lethal difficulty (which is kind of weirdly balanced in general). When upgraded it one-shot kills like half of the enemy types with body shots (and I think the heavy bow 1-shot kills *everything*). Of course, killing enemies that way is pretty boring so I only do it when an encounter looks like it might be difficult without thinning out the enemies.

Playing on PC now that it's out. The only real stance is just wait for the enemy to come to you. Obviously archers and those who throw bombs are separate, but apparently the game will switch to new NPCs so they attack you, but the old NPC still has its attack interest too, resulting in them 'ganging' up on you. However, if you just stand there the game prioritizes one over others, and they tend to attack one at a time. I've yet to encounter a NPC who isn't easily defeated/parried/etc with whichever stance I am in. I only uses 'stances' for the visuals.

I always go for looks rather that buffs for the armor i use, for example i like using the ronin or traveler suits (i just don't like how the samurai clan armor looks without the shimura colors or the sakai armor in general, looks waaaay to bulky for me) btw i like the very many, can relate

This could have been helpful two years ago LMAO when I first played it I thought the game ends when you rescue shimura but I was SO wrong got stuck on one of Ryuzo's missions bc I kept trying a different stance everytime I died and just rage quite and never touched it.but NOW I completed the story plus all 18 of Masako's and Isikawa's tales and find my self rapidly switching between stances spamming sticky bombs next to barrels to make a domino effect and I have never tried or liked stelf but maybe I grew as a gamer or GOT stealth is just THAT good 😊

"A short distance away" - lol. The only thing I hated about the adorable little foxes was that some of them dragged us 3 zip codes away for a stinkin' shrine! 😂

Luckily you can just fast travel back to the fox den you originated from.
@dennisd19065 ай бұрын
@@Joker_JAK it was more due to the handful of follows that were so far from his tree you'd be out of breath twice before reaching the shrine, lol. Just one of those things that takes time that I think could've been closer to the dens. Thankfully it wasn't all of them!

stances doesnt really affect Ranged enemy category. unless you go fancy on Wind Stance Typhoon kick.

So happy to see that you are doing Tsushima content! Probably my second favorite game outside of Horizon. And I had no idea that charms can be specific to outfits! It feels like a good time for me to replay Tsushima, so this is excellent timing.

you forgot to mention that there is major charm that adds a poison to the wind chime, quite useful as well

You can completely bypass the wind skills and just wander around and check the question marks on the map i didnt get any of the wind upgrades but i have maxed everything just by wandering around lol its fun
@Krafanio5 ай бұрын
Pro tip: The wind chime + The Charm of Toxic Demise = A lot of stealthy and long-distance kills. I have killed at least 4 enemies by throwing the chimes almost simultaneously in different directions and unless another enemy sees them die, it´s completely silent.

Hello! You might remember me from around a year ago I used to be on discord. I just started playing this game and I'm having a blast. I'm currently on act 2. Fact is I actually got the wind chime first it's really good if you have a stealth objective definitely the most useful to me out of the ghost weapons. I have completed pretty much all the shrines in Izuhara and some of the act 2 region near the crashing waves area. I currently have equipped the slow healing out of combat charm and the more time parry charm should I equip any other or do you think I'm all set. Also I've been wanting to know should I go with the samurai clan armor or the pirate armor from the dlc if I'm facing a boss?

Where do you unlock heavenly strike? I kind of want to know but kinda want to find it? But im like 8 hrs behind my buddy who started playong it before me but he doesnt do much exploring just to and from missions. I feel like ive uncovered more of the map but havent found the mission yet
@Joker_JAK5 ай бұрын
I definitely think spending technique points on Guiding Wind items is a waste. You find all the fox dens and such just from exploring. I didn't unlock any of the Guiding Winds until I had all my other upgrades maxed out (which I did before the end of Act 2).

Quick question. For the campaign, I have completed the first act halfway through the second. Does the game get harder? I want to prefix this by saying I love the game and even if it doesn't, that won't change my view.

If you get the iki island dlc, then you will definitely notice an increase in difficulty. As for the story, I found it fairly easy. I don't know what difficulty you are playing on, but when I did my second playthrough, I did it on a higher difficulty, and it was much more fun than my first. It felt challenging but not impossible.

@@HenrySmithers-uj3qk I stopped playing a few weeks ago as I completed the main campaign. Havnt touched Iki yet. It sounds like I should. I was playing on hard. Dont get me wrong I had to concentrate and it felt satisfying as hell to parry but wasnt difficult imo

@MillerTheOriginal OK if you enjoyed Ghost of tsushima, I would highly recommend the dlc. It has a new map, new mechanics and enemies and it's just a great dlc.

What’s the point of using an armor that reduces damage if everything is a one shot on the hardest mode? Genuine question I want to run through it again on that difficulty

Is the bow considered 'dishonorable' weapon? :D Also what if I charge an enemy unaware of me, but instead of assassination I heavy attack them and murder them instantly, does that count as dishonarble stealth kill? :D

When its your first time playing set game to HARD this make its soo much more fun. I had no ides that gear could hold their own custom charms. I thought charms was set for all gear because when you switch gear the charms dont get removed. Here I was thinking you had to pick what gear and charms as your play style for the whole game. Everything else in the video I learn when playing it looks like 99% of players are skipping the games text teaching you as you play.
