Did they nerf glory from Teahouse donations? I'm literally getting like 2 or 3 glory for 120+ level purple items when donated.

I was wondering this too last night when I was donating a few items for the daily, but I think that's just how it's always been. When you first hit endgame it's easy to rank up a few clans to get the max effects, but that's because you are looting hundreds/thousands of items that are +0 and useless for any other purpose. Then you get to the end of NG+ and almost everything dropping is +2 or above and you end up soul extracting all of it for azure ore and suddenly your glory gains come to a screeching halt.

So yeah, 2-3 is normal for 120ish items. 150-170 drops still only give 3-10, and even having +4 or +5 doesn't increase it at all.

It also doesn't help that clan battles have been broken since day one and give no rewards. I've heard that setting up your game as a co-op expedition even if you password it and don't let anyone else actually join gives pretty big amounts of glory, but cannot confirm because I cancelled PS+ a long time ago.

Yeah, I've been dismantling a ton of crap as I'm about to hit new game+ so I guess I was just donating a massive amount of crap in the past. What rank do you need in order to keep the clan effects and transfer clans?

Jesus I had no idea I could do this.

Hatorade said:
Can also do similar things with crafting and materials, donations for boons etc.

edit: Also turn off action camera, screen shake, and increase camera distance. Makes combat far less chaotic feeling.

Utnayan said:
This helped a ton! Game is more fun to play now. Thanks I maxed out camera distance and did the others it’s literally night and day. Anyway to turn off all the floating shit?

Hatorade said:
Yes, can turn off all damage numbers as well.

Lol I can’t relate to people who don’t check settings menus before playing. Literally any game I play, the first thing I do is scour the options menus top to bottom looking at every single option.

For these games it was actually frustrating because there’s so many damn options haha

Yeah I always check settings but finding a couple of those were needles in a haystack.

Not high. I think you need to rank up twice in order to keep the bonuses selectable. And you need Minister (30k IIRC) to have the max rank available.

Man I cannot find an f'ing Yasakani Magatama for samurai. I just keep getting Ninja ones.

Platinumed. NG+ but burning out now. I'll most likely wait for the DLC.

Well I did it, I beat Nioh 1. That game is HARD, especially the final battle (Orochi, not the final final thing). Sloth didn't trivialize it nearly as much as people say it does. Went with Axe and heavy use of Sloth, Weakness, and Pleaides+Energize (or whatever that other talisman that starts with E is) during super saiyan mode.

Nioh 2 is about halfway done (flipped between the two games the last few months) and just as hard. Using Axe again in that but now I'm also weaving in Kusarigama (just because it lines up with Ninjutsu on scaling), along with Sloth, Weakness, and this time Ninjutsu (feathers are pretty damn awesome) which I ignored in the first game. Fight the enemy down to low ki and then bomb them with feathers, it wrecks bosses. Shuriken and Kunai are great for getting to bosses, I usually blast those naga-medusa things with them because I'm terrible at fighting those.

I cleared things like Sekiro, Wo Long, and all of Fromsoft's games without much trouble, but Nioh is a whole other ballgame, and I have to scratch for every possible advantage to win in Nioh.

Wasn't planning on playing Nioh 3 after this, but if it's easier than the first two and Tonfa is OP as I've read here...maybe I'll give it a whirl. Don't want to spend a huge amount more time in this series and Nioh 2 is already going to take me a couple more weeks probably, but I'd really like to do a Tonfa playthrough in one of these.

Thats a lot of Nioh all at once, especially if you do any of the post game stuff in the second one.
