Leave like if the video was informal, comment with any further questions, and Subscribe for more Nioh crap ^^

[@keithlewis5529]

This video was EXACTLY what I needed. Great job, man!

[@rokellc]

Dude I have to tell you..this was a GREAT video! I wanted to get some plus gear and all of the other KZbinrs were doing the duel boss missions and they had insanely high damage on their weapons. There was no way I was going to be able to duplicate that. But this method here is PERFECT for me! I can get the divine plus gear AND I get some help on the mission!

[@zeruszephuros5419]

You totally deserve more subs, your content is really detailed, easy to understand and so useful!

[@beasthunter7480]

Man I know this is old now but this video is by far the best explanation of how to do this that I’ve found. I just wanted to let you know. Hope everything is going good.

[@timothygallagher8744]

I felt so depressed when you said the thing about the plus 4 into the plus 7. But you told it straight. I thank you for that lol

[@agidyne9676]

Oooooh. Thanks dood! I was kinda weirded out that 150 level gear was the highest I could grab. Getting this plus stuff will help me out in the dlc!

[@gatorr4life]

Great video, very informative and easy to follow. Much appreciated.

[@davidduong9144]

Finally a guide that clearly explains. Subscribed!!

[@raspberrygoose7178]

Thanks alot! I just started obtaining divines, and farming them on the castle.

[@trilloff]

Such a big help! Not even the wiki explained this well enough...

[@mugenrgtv4109]

i'm looking for a video on how to +1 the weapon. luckily i found you, very informative. like, like, likey. Thank you for making this video.

[@PumpActionPineapple]

Thanks mate. Unbelievably helpful saved me a lot of trial and error.

[@1703bandito]

Thanks for the quickly reply ,I'm currently on the fourth region new game + Thanks for the info man 👍🏼

[@howlingzombie1157]

this video answer my questions about divine weapons and im assuming you can use this information on armor as well. Good stuff.

[@andrefilipe726]

Finally I get it, thanks a lot my friend.

[@niohtherottweiler7135]

Perfect video! :)

[@ffx5846]

Thanks for the video. The upgrade system seems a little condusing to me. This cleared it

[@markothulander]

thx man for the answer on your vid and for what i understand on this with divine you have to have lots of material and divine weapons or Armor lots of money to make a soulmatching to keep uppgrading i am right?

[@friedbacon6236]

Sigh, finally a good tutorial video about divine gears

[@1703bandito]

Love your vids man keep up the good work ,where would be the best place to farm + weapons and armour ? Been stuck on +3 gear .

[@PWARGaming]

thanks! What regions do u have unlocked? I would say frog bowl sub mission since toad imo is easy to kill. Dojo's are nice place as well. All depends on mission level however, the higher the mission, the better the + drops will be, up to +6 (rare) in the last region in the highest mission levels (310-320).

[@Excaliwolf2]

You need to make an updated video. There is a much easier but riskier way to + LVing the weapons. Defiling weapons in the Abyss in order to make them +. The Abyss works in floors, working as 1-5 when you complete Way of the Samurai, must complete Strong for 6-10 I assume. Each floor you progress the more + it gets, so at Floor one, you can Defile something at 1 and return at floor 5, giving a +5. But when you die twice in the Abyss it's failure. If you defile something, it becomes something you can loose. Would like to see a video of this. Was about to be an ass till I seen that you didn't have the Abyss missions, which I am not sure when they added it. (I have the complete game, not standard purchase.)

[@maltimoto]

Haha, I was the 1000th like Good guide, currently farming gear for the Nioh DLC

[@dwg8084]

Why do you use a +2 to get to + three you can use a plus one to get to +3 and beyond. Has this been patched before this video or does it make a difference?

[@GenX-Rising]

Do the chances change if you do the same mission on Way of the Strong as opposed to Way of the Samurai?

[@brawly]

So you can't create a +1 weapon, right? Gotta find them if you don't have any left? Great video, helped me a lot.

[@achtung_panzer6905]

BrawlEmAll you can craft past +1 you just need to make a request for maramasu for the "max forge lvl"

[@matthodgkins5445]

Another good video!

[@PWARGaming]

thanks! ^^

[@christianmcmillin6589]

You sir are a genius thank you so much I was struggling to figure out how to do that thank you thank you keep it up

[@TheMeanArena]

People struggled because it is a bad upgrading system. Could have been way more simplified.

[@TheMeanArena]

How do you even just get a weapon upgraded to a +1 to start with?

[@manny011]

Can you farm +1 on way of the samurai? Thx!

[@dashingirishlad]

great helpful video. thanks

[@Xynes85]

Hey, great Vids, keep em coming! I have a Question: How can you keep the Attack Bonus on the Weapon. I.E. i got a Skill A+ Weapon and I am going to Souls match it. It will go down to an Skill A. Am i doing something wrong? Thanks in advance!

[@PWARGaming]

that's familiarity. When you soul match the fam on the wpn/armor is reset to 0 instead of whatever the max is for that rarity. Most stats increase by 5 or 5%, for cta's case, your skill dropped to the original A. When you max fam out again, it will become A+ once again.

[@Xynes85]

PWARGaming thanks m8

[@TheDeFiler316]

So doing the Oni Region in Way of the Warrior can net you up to +6 drops? Any mission in particular that you would suggest in the region?

[@PWARGaming]

double boss fights. I think even demon king revealed can too, but yah, most of mines came from two kings or yuik+oda. 310-320 twilights may be best but the rotation thing is dumb and you rarely get it :/

[@anonymoushackers7177]

What region do you get oni sakon spear

[@gusofree]

what Lv i can upgrade

[@TeamUrbanStorm]

how do you deal so much dmg to this guy?

[@rayhughes4143]

Super helpful thanks

[@alexacosta9569]

Hi I'm at level 260 now I'm trying to level up my sword to plus 10 but I get a negative damage effect at 7 to 8 why is that?

[@direbane]

Been wondering the same thing

[@gameshark427]

Ah,, Im having trouble with my +50 weapons & armor. I can't seem to Soul Match any higher than +50 😳

[@HuNTeR__official]

If you could help me , I've beat all main missions from the first region until tokai region on NG+ , but now i can't go to Sekigahara region ! Am i missing something ?

[@PWARGaming]

blue bar on bottom. that needs to fill to unlock next region. Main missions are not enough, you need some side missions too (any).

[@HuNTeR__official]

PWARGaming Thank you So Much man !

[@NiraSader]

but what does the weapon's level and the "+..." even do? it doesn't look like it's increasing the weapon's damage or anything

[@PWARGaming]

increases damage. higher gear lvl, more "atk multiplier" or defense multiplier. + level does the same, adds about 30-ish attack each + lvl. Now + levels go to +30 max, and wpn lvl goes to lv250-260 max in the newest dlc, on the hardest difficulty (way of the wise).

[@achtung_panzer6905]

Sometimes a gear will be +×(x being any number) and have a higher lvl then your current gear, but when you try to soul match it it will decrease your armor/ attack multiplier because it has inferior stats.

[@manny011]

This was really helpful, thanks!

[@Marco.91]

I notice that when you forge a 150 with a 150+1 the attack goes down in the finished form. Will the same thing occur if i try to sm to +2?

[@all149]

yeah same thing happening to me i don't know why

[@MistaFahrenheit]

Soul matching resets familiarity. Just kill things and it'll go back up.

[@mraulinaitis]

Nice video, but I got into a hole here, maybe somebody can advice something? I had a +1 tonfa, managed to upgrade it to +3 - the damage multiplier increased as well. Now, I have several +4, +5, even +6 weapons, but if I try ti soulmatch my +3 tonfa with any of those as materials, the damage multiplier goes way down, also additional properties of the weapon go down, like instead of fire +15 I now get only +10, also defence from +5 goes down to 2,2 percent! So +3 + +5 = much worse weapon???

[@PWARGaming]

no, chances are you're FAMILIARITY is decreasing back down to 0, which is normal, and will lower damage since it's resetting all stats that scale with fam back down, BUT once you get it back to 999, those stats will go back up, and a +4 will always have more attack than +3. So get the tonfa's to + 5 or higher, then raise fam to 999, and it'll have better attack than the +3, since familiarity also effects stats (more you attack with a weapon, more familiarity bar you fill for it). divine wpns have 999 fam, lower rarities will have less.

[@mraulinaitis]

Thank you, it worked! After the soul matching the fire bonus decreased to +10, but went back to +15 after a few whetstones!

[@michaelo.1320]

Can you explain how you were doing that much damage on that boss? Some of your hits were like 6000-9000 damage, wtf man. My sword only does 900 damage

[@deathgreaper986]

Michael O. His difficulty was way of stronger and he prob farmed for some crazy divine weapon with crazy dmg already

[@benjiskitts]

Have you had any trouble starting a new character , apparently I heard starting a new one can delete your old save/character ?

[@PWARGaming]

I have two characters, one with blender build and one with susanoo which is changed into a different build now. So far, nothing's happened. Supposedly last patch alleviated the chance of it happening, but I always back up my saves on usb to ensure I never get screwed over. So it's safe so long as you back em up I'd say.

[@MarvellousMorbing]

PWARGaming Can you also do a video explaining reforging? That be greatly appreciated

[@benjiskitts]

PWARGaming cool , thanks .

[@gaylongurley]

I made a (+2) armor before armor of exceptional feet...I wish it was the chest piece but oh well lmao

[@wynnandrachel168]

ok but if all you have is 150 gear then how do you get + gear if you don't have any + items?

[@sephjnr]

Random loot drops from yokai & chests - there's a base chance, but on Way of Strong difficulty upward you can wager a number of Ochoko cups to increase the odds of drop in a level, 10 cups can increase the chances by 2-4% (but sometimes 10%). Note that Revenants do *NOT* drop + gear, at least on WoStrong.

[@bigrazo5098]

nice gonna try it out n 'bumb rush' this method

[@IsraTheBlack]

So if +6 are the highest you can get, how can you level them to +10 then?

[@PWARGaming]

+6 is the highest that can drop. You get +10 by doing the same process as I detailed in the video. To get + 7, combined two +6. To get +8, combine two + 7, etc. You need 8 +6's to combine upwards to make a +9. Which means you need 16+6's to combine upward to make a +10 (since yu need two +9's to make 10). Combining upward meaning, going through the process of upgrading like I've detail. If all you had were +6 weapons, you need 16 total to make one +10 weapon by combining upward.

[@IsraTheBlack]

ah that makes sense. Thanks.

[@kosmicantimatter]

When and where do +6 gear start dropping? I am in ng+ 2nd region. Haven't really seen anything other than +1 and +2 (just one piece).

[@MarvellousMorbing]

PWARGaming Jesus, that's a long tedious painful process of upgrading divine weapons. I have to upgrade a + weapon to +6 and another + weapon to +6 to get +7 weapon ?

[@PWARGaming]

Final region, 310 missions or higher.

[@theflipside6104]

Any tips on getting inheritance change attack skill weapons?

[@PWARGaming]

check revenants near water at ng+ isle of demons, usually people are dying their so people get their stuff. Otherwise no, lots of forums have people "giving out" their change to attack x stuff. Most, Like I said, are dying in isle od demons.

[@theflipside6104]

Thanks man your videos are great! Keep it up!

[@darkdemon9013]

wew first try +1 raikiri on the forge

[@revfunk8823]

You said you were "above " using sloth in another video I just watched lol I'm just fucking with ya, I LOVE your channel. But bro, you literally just called sloth users scrubs and now look at you. Gotta be OP then I guess, i dunno. THANK YOU MAN

[@LTLotusHeart]

Can Divine Gear be Purple?

[@PWARGaming]

no, only green, or whatever 5th rarity color you chose if you changed the rarity color in the settings

[@markmerser]

Bro how do I get attack on all my gears like you had it.. Cause damn man, I'm struggling here

[@PWARGaming]

find gloves with inheritable attack, then max fam them, get your armor you want attack on > soul match the gloves > attack will now be on that armor piece. Repeat. Best way to find gloves with that is revenants. Just go to a place that has a lot of revenants, kill them, check the gloves, repeat. Even if the stats are greyed out you can soul match the attack onto any armor.

[@markmerser]

PWARGaming wait I do t get it.. I can put another stat on my armor? Is that what you're saying? It'll be nice if you can input that in your future video.. And thanks for the reply bro

[@thegascoigne]

PWARGaming Hi man ! Do you have an advice to get easily change attack (heart or anything else) on inheritable stat ? I want to soul match one of these weapon in my weapon. Nice vid tho

[@PWARGaming]

I can stream it real quick with no commentary in a bit.

[@PWARGaming]

unfort no, though lots of forums have people saying they have x inheritable they are dropping. Usually they're dying in isle of demons ng+, near the water at start of level. Just spawn their revenants, see what they drop. I got inherit stuff, I got attack gloves, all from that.

[@nightshadow1530]

How do I obtain the very 1st +1? Do I have to first beat mission in NG+? Thanx, vid will be helpful once I get the 1st +1

[@MrShadowRaiden]

do NG+ missions

[@PWARGaming]

beat missions in ng+, bosses have higher chance to dropping divine, thus, a higher chance of dropping a +.

[@navdragoni]

You can get +1 in ng, in those bosses side quests.

[@ghostface1621]

I must be horrible at this game. I'm lvl 135 all divine kingo. Sloth him, hit from behind and he one shots me with his back hand I just cant avoid it

[@BillyBoze]

Might sound basic at this point, but Never move clockwise around him. Always move or dodge counterclockwise and watch *his* left hand when possible. If you know you were too late and fcked up the dodge, block. It'll most likely Stamina lock you but often you recover fast enough to retreat before he counters. Other than that you can attempt to keep distance and bait one of his jumping attacks preferably the belly flop one and attack. If staying close really doesn't work out for you do this and retreat, rinse and repeat. Talisman of weakness and carnage are recommended. Power pills can be handy too if you don't want the debuff from talisman of carnage but remember: If a boss one hits you anyway the weakness debuff from carnage doesn't matter at that point because not getting hit is a must anyway then. So DPS is king then. Hope this help a bit.

[@Sam-bd3qr]

Damn I thought farming amrita was a pain lol now getting my weapons to divine with those type of stats is ganna be another layer of stress lol. This game is awesome

[@BrittonMittens]

Where the best place to farm +6 weapons in NG+ nowadays?

[@PWARGaming]

Double boss fights. Pick your poison :p

[@jamaljamison9174]

when you say beat the game do you mean by beating kelly of Hundred eyes

[@PWARGaming]

beating kelley from demon king awards divines, but only once I believe. Beating the hundred eyes quest will unlock way of the strong which is where you can get divines for the entirety of that difficulty, which is what I mean when "beat the game".

[@jamaljamison9174]

PWARGaming ah ok thank you

[@HectoricYoutube]

PWARGaming I have to say thank you for this video I'm a new player who just beat the game and has been struggling to understand this plus system your video was super informative and easy to understand and thx for the farming spot in gong there right now lmao keep up the awesome content

[@Somniostatic]

you lost me like 156 words in....
