If you're like me and have never played Nioh before, Nioh 3 is quite the challenge. Combat is so much faster and more aggressive than something like Elden Ring, with so many abilities to juggle and buttons to press. Add to that enemies and bosses that don't mess around, putting your understanding of these tools to the test, and it can be a lot.

I struggled for quite some time trying to brute-force bosses like the Bloodedge Demon and Jakotsu-baba. That was until I did what I should have done ages ago: actually look at my skills, Omnyo box, and weapons.

My greatest discovery was the Supreme Parry and Enduring Destruction skills, which I used to kill Jakotsu-baba and clear the Hamamatsu Crucible on my next attempt pretty cleanly.
