Kanazawa Hayato Badge

[daight90]

It says 'Only kill guards with Hayato', I tried only killing guards with hayato, but I still didn't get it.
Anybody knows how to get this?

Did you finish the mission already?

[Zorukaio]

I finished the mission already. Now I can play again and see the badges. It doesn't matter if they are guards, straw hats, or samurais. Every time I kill somebody with a character that is not Hayato the badge will turn red. Is this a 4-year-old bug or is it only happening to me?

Isn't that how it's supposed to work?
If you kill someone with a character who isn't Hayato, you failed the badge and it turns red?

Also, if you already gained the badge you can't lose it anymore.

[Hemmingfish]

The badge turns red when you can't earn it anymore because you failed the requirement. Don't kill guards with anyone other than Hayato.

Does “guards” mean just guards or *all* enemies? Maybe that’s where the confusion lies?

[Zorukaio]

I mean, "guards" should mean "guards". If its any enemy then the description of the badge should be corrected. Also, if its actually killing enemies only with Hayato, shi.t... that's a real challenge...

[shde2e]

I'm pretty sure "Guards" just means "enemies", since they're all guarding the place. It's a bit confusing, but it does make sense imo.

For anyone who still needs an answer to this:

Okkoto himself counts as a guard and the final blow (apart from the cut-scene) must be by Hayato.

He is one of only two kills which you must make to complete the mission. The other can't be moved so gets blown up when the depot is destroyed.

I don't know which of the other enemies count as "guards". I didn't kill any of them, though there's almost certainly an easier way to get this badge.

not necessarily. You can (pre)-kill him without Hayato and still earn the badge.
hint : Explode him !!!

another hint to kill everybody only using Hayato :
you can shoot the samurai with Takuma or using the matchlocks of Yuki and Mugen, then finish the guy with the sword of Hayato

Mugen has a wrist cannon which outright kills samurai.

Thanks for this.

Words have a meaning.

'Guards' means 'guards'.

Guards have a 'tag name' indicating guards, while other types of ennemies have another name.

While this is slightly discussable for Officers and even more for Straw Hats, it is definitely not discussable for Samurais.
Samurais have specific attributes, such as immunity to standard attacts. The game describes Samurais as different from guards, and the game advises to address Samurais in a different manner as standard ennemies.

If anyone cares about rectifying this mistake, I suggest the following wording:

'Kill ennemies only with Hayato'
OR EVEN BETTER
'Kill only with Hayato'

Good luck with the mission!

It's an amazing mission when you consider it, only using a single character to complete it, with all the Samurais around!

I'd like to thank the developers for a great game which has entertained my evenings for years! Please continue this great work, perhaps with other civilizations or cultures, how about one in the Middle East, one in South America etc... ?
