Nioh 2: Cancel with Ki Pulse (Animation cancel)

Animation canceling with ki pulse since the beta. Here in this tutorial, you will learn how to add item to your combo with magic, ninja skill and item consumptions. With this, you can cancel most animation, speed up your item casting and even do fancy move with emote! Don't know if it's legit, but hey, more power to us. (Until TN fixed it...)

I've seen this tech floating around for a while with no explanation or anything, so thanks for taking the time to make this vid! 👌🏽

[@Marci_Impro]

Lol today i found out i can Yokai-Block animation cancel my feathers and now you show me I can just use a Ki-impuls. Thanks, was looking for a way to abuse the animation cancelling since Ninjutsu build is too squishy for 1+ seconds of animations xD

[@Darrenrulestheworld]

This is a really comprehensive breakdown. Great stuff. I wish Team Ninja would focus on this stuff and offer guides in-game.

[@wallacesousuke1433]

Exactly, the combat is amazing but they waste so much time and effort with loot-able garbage

[@dandy8849]

where is the fun in that?

[@andreimaxwell4455]

those kinds of animation cancels weren't intended to be used like the majority of gameplay mechanics it already has, if anything your abusing a system that made nioh combat mechanics possible via loopholes

[@ArchiURURU]

tonfas ... -> Demon Dance -> Pulverise -> item cancel works life a charm

[@Xelod93]

Dude you're insane! Great job! This is something that will be super handy!

[@SinisteurSaint]

Hey guy ! Reallu nice job ! It makes tools more effiscient in combo !

[@Bhetto-OgrO]

Valeu meu mano. Isso será de grande ajuda.

[@ogopogo1109]

hey, here's an extra one for switch glaive, you can do it from switch stance: blade as well, great video, keep up the good work!

Thanks for the tip!

[@elkmeatenjoyer3409]

Thanks man this helped a lot.

[@siqsir456]

thank you so much for this video man, do you also have a video or demonstration for Splitstaff and Fists Ki Pulse cancellable moves?

[@Bblazenewell]

Tyvm can't wait to learn it trying to pop off a jutsu on nioh difficulty and get hit twice then lose 90% of my hp

[@kainslegacy666]

That's one goofy looking Kusarigama.

[@thatonefoofrumlongbe]

How are you ki pulsing after the ninja feathers? When I do it, I cancel feathers. I can never ki pulse in the end. I can do it with kunai, but not with feathers. It is impossible to shoot out the feathers , and still hit the ki pulse. I'm losing my mind, been trying for an hour. Please advice.

[@LasttoLoad]

kunai has the same timing as feather so it should be possible. if its still hard, you can try other attack that has more forgiving timing like spear mid stance strong attack or katana kick

[@J.Kimaar]

Try the key pulse right when your characters head turns for the feather. The timing is indeed strict but you can learn it in a few hours

[@tomlong7619]

hi ltl, long time no see. I recently back to Nioh 2 after bought it 2 years ago (oppsie). I wonder if this tech still works in 1.28 version (the latest one on steam)

[@LasttoLoad]

its still working!

[@tomlong7619]

@@LasttoLoad then im just suck cannot pull it off. T_T ty for a reply, looking forward from your future contents

[@dodang_9147]

@@LasttoLoad My main problem with feathers is not recover, but speed it comes out. its so slow that enemy can dodge it/side step. like a lot of bosses have really crazy mobility and dash way too much. Not to mention that its kinda inaccurate. why isn't there a set that boosts feather casting speed. its almost like they designed these feathers to be used with paralyze.... but there is better stuff to use for paralyze (LIKE Iai quickdraw). the ki pulse counter is really cool, but its much easier to do it with burst counter.

[@LasttoLoad]

@@dodang_9147 its usually the best when used against an out of ki enemy. Some enemies like saito toshimitsu are designed in a way to counter that play when they have ki. There are a few good item to use however like guardian spirit with ame-no-mitori for fast stagger.

@@Dz77777Dz bro he shows you in the vid. It is hard so you just got to practise. Don't just mash the item button, that's what I used to do wrong. You have to press it just as the attack animation ends, then you need to leave just enough time so that the item actually comes out but not too long so that the ki pulse is missed. Try it with archers impact on the fists
