World’s First | No Ultimate Undamaged Solo | Ghost of Tsushima Legends

Legendary Stone Striker katana for the win on this one! By far my favorite katana in the game. Stylish and high damage when used right plus the ability to repel enemies momentarily on the kill. This run was quite tough. Took me a handful of tries. Thought this up and stated trying last week on B&S and got so close to a win on that map with a hit taken on W15. 😭 Nonetheless, made it happen here at Aoi.
Recently had a casual conversation with some players and we were debating the stone striker vs. MMC. Seems some compare the stone striker to be on par with MMC. When it comes to damage, stone stance is close to MMC, but still MMC leads in DPS. If you can MMC and like to by all means go for it. Some things to consider though when comparing the 2 as damage isnt everything. Id argue MMC is considerably better than the stone striker for a few reasons:
1. Equipping stone striker costs you a legendary slot, MMC does not. This allows players choosing MMC to have room to significantly improve their build by using additional techniques instead of a legendary or it makes room for another legendary where you wouldn’t have that extra legendary option wih stone striker.
2. Resolve: MMC is definitely the fastest way to build resolve with melee attacks due to its speed and ability to hit multiple enemies at once. While MMC constantly gains resolve we must recall that the stone striker loses/takes resolve.
3. Staggering: the stone striker is really only worth it to use heavenly strike when we stagger enemies before doing the HS attack. MMC staggers enemies far faster than the stone striker, gives more consistent, high damage and provides the player with a better safety buffer since it pretty much stun locks most enemies so quickly. So executing that high damage of a staggered HS comparable to MMC takes more effort with stone striker.
4. Kill animations: when killing enemies with MMC there is no kill animation to wait out. A player can immediately jump right into MMC’ing the next enemy. However, with stone striker killing with light or heavy attacks locks the player into a kill animation which costs you time and if killing with HS the animation is even longer. This makes MMC a better option for speed.
5. Attacking in vanish: MMC allows the player to do this. Stone striker and all other katanas do not.
Just some thoughts i wanted to share. So what do you guys think? Would you say MMC is on par with stone striker? Genuinely curious. Thanks for watching. Enjoy the weekend Ghosts and Legends!

[@MitchellRixon]

Just read your description and yes I agree with everything you said about MMC over stone striker. I just got bored of doing MMC. Stone striker is just so fun, and I like the challenge and then the payoff of executing the heavenly strike on staggered enemies

[@Atombomb-xo4vy]

Yeah man you have to be more tactical and strategic with stone striker to get the most out of it. A lot more enjoyable for me too! Thanks for stopping by. 🙏

[@prestongarvey6231]

Goddamn man, all this footage is just making me excited for once i get my hands on the pc port!

[@Atombomb-xo4vy]

Yeah, the game coming to PC will breathe some new life into the game so seems to be an overall good thing.

[@Selvaria777]

If we get a Legends 2, fancy kill animations really need to be optional. Like hold the button then it happens, so as not to impede the flow of battle. Same with auto aim targeting barrels & fire lamps. How many headshots have we all missed because the camera yanked to the side? Whoever thought that was a good idea obviously didn't test it thoroughly. Anyway spicy run. Been watching your vids for awhile, glad you're still uploading.

[@Atombomb-xo4vy]

Totally agree with both those things especially the auto lock on to barrels and lanterns. That is beyond irritating at times and has really screwed me up a number of times lol Thanks for stopping by! 🙏

[@pauloftsushima3580]

Attaboy!! Genius run indeed. Love it. But Mr. Bumcave might get offended lol

[@Atombomb-xo4vy]

Thanks amigo 🙏 lmao he may but no reason to be offended…just sharing the facts. Hard to accept for some lol

[@Tarento04]

This was very nice bro! Awesome run!! 🙂🤘🏻🔥

[@Atombomb-xo4vy]

Thanks, Tarento. 🙏I had a lot of fun with this run. 😁

Great channel bro, subbed

[@Atombomb-xo4vy]

Thanks for the sub! 🙏

[@MitchellRixon]

This is awesome. Literally been looking into the assassin stone striker combo.

[@Atombomb-xo4vy]

The synergy with stone striker and the blowgun is fantastic and loads of fun! Going caltrops instead of smoke on the same build is awesome too.

[@MitchellRixon]

@@Atombomb-xo4vy oooo demon seeds??

[@Atombomb-xo4vy]

@@MitchellRixon yeah demon seeds if you don’t care to drop enjos or normal caltrops are very nice as well. Great synergy for staggering enemies for HS attacks and even more fun. I would have used caltrops here but the goal was no hit run. No ultimate and no smoke sounds way too hard lol

[@calibursavas]

Now this is good one. Everything you write about Mmc is right but I think many other thinks shouldn't be in this game like skipped stone for Hunter or black powder bombs especially. Good run , congratulations

[@Atombomb-xo4vy]

@@calibursavas appreciate it! 🙏 I agree and especially about the skipping stone bow. Putting that on Hunter puts her leagues above other classes in terms of power. Other classes should have a legendary weapon equivalent in damage output at very least. Thanks for stopping by.

[@calibursavas]

@@Atombomb-xo4vy I always enjoy watching your videos. Especially with different builds. You should try hunter without ultimate and class ability and no arrows. Only katana and ghost weapons. İt's really challenging. I don't really have time to play these days but my best was wave 12. I think you can do it.

[@Atombomb-xo4vy]

@@calibursavas that sounds crazy hard. Good challenge. Making it to 12 is really good. Might have to try that.

[@calibursavas]

@@Atombomb-xo4vy Demon seeds and spirit kunai with stone strike. Only problem is healing. I use leaching parry. I have done it with only using arrows for healing (bless strike) that was easy enough. No arrows is problem.

[@tonytran9463]

Agree with your write up in description man. Exploit users will always have a hard time accepting the truth because playing the game 'legitimately' or the intended way is harder. Good gameplay once again by the #1 player of Ghost!

[@Atombomb-xo4vy]

Tony! Thank you my friend and nice to hear from you. Hope all is well brotha! 100% man. These things are facts and many choose to ignore the writing on the wall. If players want to play with exploits, by all means play as you would like but trying to make comparisons like mentioned in the description is just factually inaccurate and delusional lol. These players ignore the writing on the wall and will say anything to condone their use of exploits. Not using MMC makes the game, especially melee components much easier. Appreciate your kind words man! 🙏

[@ericmcdonald9381]

This is amazing. Is it possible for an assassin to solo survival without loosing any defense area

[@Atombomb-xo4vy]

Appreciate that! 🙏 Definitely possible! Here is the most recent run I did holding all defense areas and doing all bonus objectives with the assassin. I’ve done it at Aoi village too and I know a few other players who have also done the same as me with assassin. Possible but hard and requires a lot of patience, prep, and planning utilizing barrels on certain heavier waves.
