[@ArtOfDyingWell]

Every time I see your builds I feel like this was the way it was meant to be played powerful but skillful not cheesed into oblivion

[@Casualgaming763]

I like it when someone shows the potential this game has. Nioh 2 is my favorite game in this genre.

[@rayl3798]

Dude you can get toughness A with just a few toughness on the armors, make it agility A and toughness A! Which is soooo much more comfy.

[@PadPoet]

For anyone looking for the opening track it's "Power Glove - Sleeping Dragon". It was one of the track used in Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon. Amazing build brother, right up my alley since I like playing with Sword/Double Sword and to be honest I enjoy a bit of combat.

[@ads1281]

Great build! I’ve been looking for a build like this. I like how a lot of your builds focus on the combat instead of one hit kills.

[@projectnirah1602]

This has effectively made my Nioh experience 2000x better thank you!

[@gomethrius]

Ridiculously good stuff man... that Mizuchi knockdown of all the ninjas into sign of the cross was so savage!!

[@ethanbarrettdebattista5124]

Found this years later after returning to Nioh, and by god, this is all I've ever wanted. Truly a build designed around playing well over sheer damage and showcases so well using defensive active skills. Go ham man.

[@zionjerson9059]

Finally xeno sama....perfect for pvp

[@sword-and-shield]

0:59 Perfect game edit, that look in the eye pushing that sword in.

[@luchakim7593]

thanks man for the detailed build on actual combat. ill try it right away

[@xailh9136]

I been waiting for this

[@HakumaruSan]

I've been running this armor set after the first week after the game released and never found anything better for both Iia and Cross. Yhen they buffed Master Swordman's set to +10 Active Skill Damage made it even better. I also use Mizuchi to knock down human bosses and enemy too, lol. Learn tjis from the first NiOh game.

[@fussel676]

That spirit was and is mean against human enemies in the first and second have. Sadly almost everyone forgot it.

[@justinhampel3432]

Love these builds. Your highlights were awesome

[@K55131]

The best build in my opinion, I use a dual Sword and kusari build for the sinergu but, since I saw you video from advnaced techniques, I want to use a single sword but keep using my dual sword and this is just what I need. Thanks

[@Romoredux]

I did this exact same thing except Katana/Spear in Nioh and now am doing it now in the first DLC with Benz gear. It's all about that 9 stack "Thrust action" baby.

[@MrDre10day]

We definitely need a combo vid on these weapons ur playstyle def Mr.Bushido teach us ur ways!!!

[@robertistheone5049]

I really appreciate your sword/dual sword videos I've been playing sword/ dual sword and I am just getting to dream of the nioh now just got the game 3 weeks ago so i know im late but had no idea of the weapon changing/ stance changing and doing the combos the way you are so I'm watching it over and over again I appreciate it. Just noticed the beginning of the video said final build would be shared is it on KZbin?

[@bonissoni1989]

What? A Nioh build that's strong, but not cheesy?! My attention to this game has returned...

[@mohammadgm1247]

Thanks man I was looking for this build 👍

[@SageHerrera]

Nioh 2 has such good sound effects jeez I need to play with headphones on more. Sick display of what this games combat potential holds per usual 👍

[@InfamousOne3840]

The real ninja is here Xenoswarm👍

[@four321zero]

@01:05 which mission is this with both bosses?

[@BlackSunMobius]

Man I got so much to learn, I’m at around level 85-85 but I know nothing nor understand anything about the special affects from equipment, tempering, accessories or anything like that but I’d rather learn to play with skills like he’s displaying than a one hit build

[@og2hot]

You are nioh... impressive sword play

[@DjediVibrations]

This is amazing great opening!!!!

[@no_nameyouknow]

Wait mid-attack defense bonus means getting hit during attacking not while in mid attack stance. OK, that makes more sense.

[@josephmiller4438]

Dope setup my guy. I'm going for a similar build build, but with different gear. Rocking the demon slayer set, imperial ward, 5 piece and a four piece yoshitsune, kurama swordmaster, set. Currently grinding for the Yasakani since I don't have it yet.

[@vinceclary8086]

Damn man you be going to town on that ass geez you are great at this game

[@codyconnor6981]

I have a similar build but it uses spear and sword making use of mataza and master swordsmen. I also use the monkey spirit backed up by Shuten Doji and Kasha with extraction talismans. So basically with every hit I’m getting and damage, defense, and speed buff as well as healing on every hit with my armor stats and constant healing with regeneration talismans. Still trying to master the switching weapons during a Ki pulse. Also the monkey spirit works really well against Yokai as one of stats is free purity on strong attacks.

[@xailh9136]

This I sick🔥

[@PETROSBULLET]

damn those moves .. oooof !!!!!

[@waleedaljaber7989]

looks fun to play with this build 💙.

[@Inocince]

What are you wearing for fashion? Also what’s the music and is copyrighted?

[@ryan52620]

I just got this last night on PC and I'm about to play. On a scale of 1 to hell, how bad is it gonna be? Also great vids, liked and subbed!

[@rasamasala]

If you're new, the game is not forgiving at all. But it'l gets easier once you understand the basics of it and your reaction and ability to learn and adapt improve. I know for me, I got my booty handed to me when I first played it and I picked up the remastered version and now I'm blazing through my second time around. (I didn't even beat the game the first time). So yeah! Just stick through it and you'll have a lot of fun. And prepare to die alot

[@truqzztv3848]

So since there are always yokai and human enemys try to learn their moveset. Its always gonna be the same. It takes sum time but as u keep playing u get more skillpoints for combos which gonna make your nioh life a ton easier. AND PLS FOR THE LOVE OF GOD use your omni magic and ninjutsu as early as possible to lvl them, i didnt done that and was totally annoyed by me being so dumb not using them all the time :D

[@truqzztv3848]

Btw, im not even in ng but died over 200 times already ((((: be prepared to get your ass whiped and git gud.

[@malodos2295]

You'll have to atleast beat the game once for this build to be possible to achieve.

[@bendominado7152]

[@rodneymorris6971]

I've been using this exact build since release. Only I went with electricity and I often switch midbattle to odachi so I can get dmg bonus from moonlit snow to confuse proc early in to a battle. I also went with mizuchi but really just for the knockdown. Its not a 1 shot but it wouldn't be fun if it was.

[@XonixDerps]

So dualblade odachi? o:

[@rodneymorris6971]

Yeah. Its still effective. Proc confuse and then dmg buff with moonlit snow. Otakemaru if necessary then Duals then Odachi. My gear isn't maxed still so I needed a quick finisher style that was balanced for bosses too. Duals are great for demons, Odachi for humans.

[@XonixDerps]

@@rodneymorris6971 now i just wish odachi got more moves in the dlc lol

[@rodneymorris6971]

@@XonixDerps There may be extra missions added after the first dlc drops. I think it's only fair the other weapons get more movesets

[@pinooftheborealvalley3245]

Man, You are Amazing.!!!!!😎👌

[@Shaolinstout]

It's so refreshing to see someone using the full potential of this game and it's combat. I'm tired of seeing builds using and spamming only one skill

[@BlackedRaaw]

You're so good at this game, lmao.

[@xOnexEyedxDemonx]

just legendary :)

[@kenhagen6122]

Maybe I missed it. Why do you use strength in this build if you're hybrid with dual swords?

[@four321zero]

@00:18 lol. How did they all drop together?

[@uscatmihai216]

First of all, amazing videos, both this and the advanced tips, they really highlight the awesome combat system from Nioh. I was wondering what your thoughts were regarding using the dual blades as a 'main' weapon, rather than the katana. Should I be running Skill 99 and Heart 99 in that scenario? I recently started NG+ but I'd like to move towards a more definitive build and this one seems super fun while also heavily skill reliant. Anyways, awesome videos, man!

[@cebonvieuxkeke]

Thx for promoting a build without Tengen.

[@fussel676]

SAY IT AGAIN! LOUDER!

[@BlackSunMobius]

In very new to this game, what’s tengen?

[@LopingCSF]

Thank you

[@yangvang5531]

how do you get Lai Quickdraw damage from? i cant get it from the past this month.

[@KAMBO-pu9nn]

Is that Donkey Kong Country music in the background during the explanation/guardian spirit bit?

[@Xenoswarm]

A remixed beat but yes, it is

[@babayaga4320]

It takes a lot of time gold and materials to get a set of armor/weapons stacked with all the tempered stats and inherited stats you want, but then you will out level your gear fairly quickly it seems at times, so after you've spent all of that time and effect getting your gear exactly how you want it, how do you keep it anywhere near your level? Just keep soul matching your gear? That gets too expensive for me.

[@Unexpectedkick]

Hey Xenoswarm I'm also doing a build with sword and odachi, where should i invest the majority of my points in the early game?

[@erener7576]

you need to give skill stat if you gonna add more dmg bonus to dual swords

[@karlvareze8337]

only thing: it DOES NOT WORK at NG! ng+ only when you have infinite ki

[@j.s.5049]

When i look at the first part, your playstyle is beautiful and elegant. But with poison + dual swords on high stance using ministry set i do far more damage. The fighting style looks fun.

[@Xenoswarm]

Did you not read the message in the intro. At no point in this video do I show the damage that this build does. All footage was obtain pre-optimization

[@ruttalisk5680]

at 1:43, what is the white dragon move that you use?

[@ReX7828]

Mizuchi guardian spirit attack

[@dengyldneko]

So can i plsy this without having iai quickdraw on everything....... or is it okay to get? Seems like ALOT pf crafting...

[@ANN123222]

How do you get armor quickdraw inheritable?

[@claysnow7961]

How did you get quick draw damage on all your gear?

[@paintrainii2284]

Do you plan on making a switchglaive build? most of the ones I see are the stack thirty buffs before a boss fight and don't bother without actually clearing the mission kind. Which while effective I suppose, is really lame to me lol

[@Lansdon2]

Would it be viable into DoTW or DoTN? It looks like a playstyle I might enjoy and not too grindy to get together.

[@Vaeyz]

here i am on PC and cant get a Iai quickdraw inheribited.....

[@yuki1304]

So when I want to do build like this what should I focus on when it comes to skills?

[@quick2k692]

Random question. Does anyone get frame rate drops whenever they use windstorm for dual swords? (When your attacks are actually hitting an enemy)

[@DaddyGamer026]

Good build but why strength 99

[@gabek1444]

can u do a new build on just mainly kusa not ninjitsu with it so kusa does insane dmg?

[@XonixDerps]

How do ya like or think of this build vs your immortal swordsman :D

[@oRaGun.Gaming.Channel]

Nice ..do you have a build level 100

[@irvinPH]

what refashioned armour is that? looks awesome

[@fussel676]

Shinobi hat and rogue the rest. Not sure about shoes tho.

[@gomethrius]

Waffenwerfer I think the headgear is Fuma Ninja actually, Shinobi is more of a full hood

[@jamesgensimoregames525]

I tried to create this i have the armor and everything. The only stat i need to max out is strength. But im still a b agility. Does strength give weight increase.?

[@kielbasamage]

Yes.

[@gastmyok7177]

Hey man, did you thinked about using tengen? I heard it is a very good guardian spirit!

[@Xenoswarm]

Really? Never heard of it

[@illMatick99]

Wouldnt raging strike be better to put on your sign of cross and lai qd to stack with all that skill damage

[@ReX7828]

You damage yourself as well while using raging strike, with that much damage you're gonna get yourself killed very fast

[@NoahMims24]

The zoro build

[@icoh2]

How you get lai damage on gears please let’s me know

[@kileddy436]

Bro please help idk where to get the master swordsman equipment

[@Krakenflax]

Do attunement costs vary for soul cores? Cos I have these soul cores but they cost 21 attunement

[@ReX7828]

Yes, each guardian spirit has different attunement limit

[@carlosmelendez8317]

What are the exact skills needed for this build?

[@Dp_Unkemptharold]

How are you able to have both Swift step and heavenly flash at the same Time?

[@Xenoswarm]

You can't. I switch them out depending on the fight or playstyle i wanna run

[@DarrylWise]

Nani!

[@tonecognac9500]

I quit playing after the 10th time on 3rd mission. Really wish I could be better but it's ridiculously hard to me

[@GodMajik]

Find some good company, if you play ps4 I can help you

[@ReX7828]

Use ochoko cups and summons visitors

[@hundredriver]

how did you roll attack on armour?

[@gomethrius]

It can only roll on gloves. You have to inherit it from gloves to your other armor pieces via soul matching. And if you’re thinking this would take a really long time and a lot of farming... you’re right! I’ve been playing for weeks and only just inherited attack onto 2 other armor pieces (which are just a couple pieces from multiple different sets I use on different builds)🥵

[@Zeroflax]

guh, i cant believe I struggle hard against tengu and enki and you crush bosses like theyre gaki....... so sad....

[@SuperCApwner]

Update for DotN?

[@94rodneyable]

What armor is that your wearing Xenoswarm???

[@fishnutz5196]

Rouge Armor Waist and Boots, Justice Ministry Gloves and i think fuma ninja head

This is by for the best build (for me) I hate 1-2 shot builds. Makes the game boring. This actually takes skill. Coming from OP Ninja builds. It's a nice change.
