Rise of the Ronin Here’s what to expect in Midnight Difficulty!

[@davidtsmith33]

Please note clearing the public areas in Midnight is extremely difficult as each public area now includes a main story boss which you have to beat in order to clear the area. They are the devil. I was at level 62 when I completed the game and went Midnight after the lowest level public areas in Yokahama (bottom of the map) which were level 53. There were 2-3 public areas there and I just could not beat the bosses. Even at my level 65. They repeatedly trounced my tail. It was only after I levelled up more later on and filled up more of the buff skills in the new Breakthrough Skill tree and went back for them I was able (after multiple attempts) to beat them. So be forewarned.

This mode been pissing me off smh

[@davidtsmith33]

@@ThinCrustPizza67 Yeah it's pretty difficult. It helps if you're level 100 and have all the skills trees including the Breakout skills filled up.

Yo dude great stuff please keep posting this game man.

[@KingRedDiamondGaming]

Much appreciated 🙏🏼

To get a lot of skill points for the blade twin tree. Do coop missions and look for the ally missions that have bosses spawn in waves. Each boss gives a lot of karma. I usually farm up to 12 million karma then rest at a flag to get about 80 normal skill points. U can also get skill points from pressing r3 on a maxed out skill tree to convert left over strength, dex, charm, and intellect points to skill points. To farm levels just do missions u haven’t done on midnight.

[@martakarolinazmyslowska6903]

Wait you get skill trees for blade twin in midnight??

[@davidtsmith33]

@@martakarolinazmyslowska6903 It's an additional skill tree that gives significant buffs called "Breakthrough". It's to the extreme right of the other skill trees. You really need them in order to stand a chance against enemies and especially bosses in Midnight.

I played on Dawn settings and when I finished I was going back to do missions I had not completed before moving on to Dusk setting. At some time I made mistake and hit Midnight and it permanently put me on Midnight setting. At first I was upset because I was level 58 and getting my butt kicked by everyone. Then I decided to make it into a challenge. I'm now at level 82. From my experience you have to be careful when pushing buttons without reading the request asked by the game or your going to have a bad time.

What's the point really in upgrading your gear and getting the highest gear when you're done with the map,then you're done with the map. replay? I don't know, is there?❤

[@KingRedDiamondGaming]

After completing the game you pretty much unlock NG+ the difficulty jumps up and you’re able to replay the story and even clear objectives on the map. But instead of fighting regular enemies every unruly area features a boss from the main story which makes it much more challenging

[@olivercalilung9632]

​@@KingRedDiamondGaming what happens when you clear everythin on midnight difficulty? Do they respawn or thats about it?

[@KingRedDiamondGaming]

@olivercalilung9632 at the moment there’s no dlc so after you beat all the story missions and clear all regions you’ve pretty much conquered the game

[@18kempire]

Max level right now is 100 this game is really fun and I hope they at least go to 500 like Wo Long if not 750 like Nioh… High hopes tho

[@KingRedDiamondGaming]

Definitely expecting higher lvl cap and more styles for weapons in later dlc…highly recommend

[@18kempire]

@@KingRedDiamondGaming I hope this game gets a lot of support down the line… im about 250 hours in and still having fun with just the combat alone

[@xstories2527]

How do you swich it back to normal mood

[@KingRedDiamondGaming]

Using Testament of the Soul will allow you to switch between difficulties

[@xstories2527]

@@KingRedDiamondGaming ok im.there so do I fix it by switching to dawn

[@xstories2527]

Cuz I'm stuck on midnight

[@KingRedDiamondGaming]

@ you choose which ever you want from easiest to hardest it’s Dawn(Easy), Dusk(Normal), Twilight(Hard) and then Midnight

[@VIGOODFELLA]

Is this game as fun as Nioh2?

[@KingRedDiamondGaming]

Very fun…Nioh has a lot more content so it’s hard to gauge for now…when they start to drop dlc and more for the game I’ll have a more solid answer.

I am close to finishing Twilight mode using a pole-arm. Looking forward to Midnight mode using paired swords since pole-arms are kinda slow. Still struggling with the counter-spark system as it is a bit unforgiving. This games counter-spark system makes Sekiro’s parry system a joke.

[@KingRedDiamondGaming]

Im a fan of the katana and oxtail blade myself and most definitely! The wo long parry window was huge compared the ronin

[@davidtsmith33]

I find since using the polearm I'm getting countersparks easier.

[@KingRedDiamondGaming]

In my opinion katana, pole arm and oxtail blade have the highest counterspark windows

[@sepulchral.]

What would you rate this game as?

[@KingRedDiamondGaming]

Solid 8/10 highly recommend

[@martakarolinazmyslowska6903]

How to get this top?

[@KingRedDiamondGaming]

I’m pretty sure it drops from fighting Izo Okada the one Ryoma introduces you to
