Section I

Weapon Strategy

I’ve been experimenting with different character types and have settled on a build centered around the Odachi and Katana swords, prioritizing Power stats. Learning as I go, I’ve made good progress, reaching the Izumo Rest Area after about a week of casual play.

 

Odachi for Group Fights

The Odachi is a long sword that, while slower than a Katana, offers greater attack power and a wider attack range. This makes it particularly effective for dealing with medium-sized mobs. Its area of effect allows you to hit multiple enemies, which is perfect for crowd control in group encounters.

Katana for Surgical Fights

On the other hand, the Katana excels in fast-paced, one-on-one situations. It’s ideal for quick boss strikes or duels against single enemies. The Katana's speed allows you to unleash several skills in rapid succession, making it an effective choice for taking down tougher foes quickly.

Section II

Stat Focus: Affinity for Damage

My main goal is to maximize Affinity, which translates to increased damage against enemies. I’m funneling all my stat points into Power, which enhances both sword and Odachi affinity, thus boosting my overall attack rating.

The maximum affinity I’m aiming for is 3,000, which includes any percentage increases from items like magatama.

 

Section III

Weapons in Use

Currently, I'm using basic gold weapons I’ve come across during my journey. These weapons may not be the flashiest, but they provide solid enhancements.

 

Weapon Type	Primary Utility	Stat Enhancement
Odachi	Crowd Control	+10 to +50
Katana	Boss/Single Target	+10 to +50

• →Gold Weapons — Standard gear found during the journey, lacking unique features but providing consistent stat boosts as I progress through the game.

Stay tuned as I continue to optimize my build and push toward the 3,000 affinity milestone.
