[dudex]

im in the 3rd zone and im wondering how i can get some good odachis. i find good swords, spears, and axes with like 6 mods but odachi are all standard purple with 4 mods.

Challenge high level revenants. Odachi/ Tonfa have less variety than other weapons. Look for stages with Revenants close to save point especially near areas which players usually die.

Purple will have 4 special effect if these are not weapon specific. If weapon has innate effect, max will be 5 for purple.
Green will have 6, orange will have 7.
Poison is innate effect of Jakirimaru.

Towards the end of Sekigahara and onwards.

Another way to check is to forge an odachi, thru forging the weapon obtained is around your level. Innate effect is displayed everytime she crafts that same type of odachi. If you have been doing sub mission, you should have most of the odachi recipe.

Just use any odachi with high level even if it is rare or uncommon. Soul match cost is very high, upgrading 10 weapon levels cost up to 1million at level 80+, It is cheaper to just pick up a new odachi and reforge until you find one that is 'not like any other odachi'. The name really doesn't matter much earlier on.

Check your accessories if you have 'defence scales with magic B-'. I equip 2 of such, increase some magic, learnt spell to slow down and reduce defence. These are much more game changing if you have trouble getting good odachi. It gives you better chance of backstabbing enemies when they are moving very slow, increasing your DPS.
