sloth talisman is pretty broken

[SlimePlort]

Anyone else been using the sloth talisman? Makes most boss fights super easy. It should just slow movement speed, but it slows all enemy actions by a huge amount as well. It's like they're going in slow-mo so you just go low stance + sloth talisman and dps the boss down super fast. I've breezed through the last few boss fights doing it, but it's not much of an accomplishment. It's like going magic in dark souls, you're on easy mode.

Anyway I assume the high health in ng+ modes will naturally nerf the sloth talisman when I get to it, but on the first playthrough its pretty broken. Maybe just lower the duration it lasts? Anyone found anything else thats broken I'm pretty curious. Really loving the game, takes me back to my first playthrough of dark souls.

Other broken things are infinite execute chains, working on pretty much all humanoid enemies. But yes, sloth talisman is broken and will stay broken in ng+n

I mean most magic and certain ninjutsu makes the game easier, but they put it there for a reason there are spikes that cause sloth as well.

just focus on what you enjoy most, if you like being op, just use em, if you likes challenges, ditch them. either ways are fun in their own rights.

ng++ onwards the duration barely last at all, so peeps will have to find another method to access "easy mode", game is flexible, you can clear with any methods. tools or honing your combat skill, most importantly is to have fun while doing so instead of having player remorse by the end of the day.

Honestly paralysis or whatever the lightening effect is called to be better. Once you have the effect you can keep it as long as you hit them.

Good luck in using it on way of Nioh . It last only about 6 secs even with magic 200 ! So no slot is fine . Way of samurai is just tutorial. They let you happy in tutorial , prepare to get rofl stomp in later ng+ without proper build

A 50 hour tutorial is that really how you want to sell a game with little enemy variety?

Those are probably why most don't go past the initial few playthroughs doesn't matter how much damage enemies do on higher difficulty. It's still the same enemy you've phased several times already especially side missions with bosses.

well . different enemy placement. they use diferent strategies ( like that skeleton axe warrior can perform mad spinner move endlessly) archers are faster and faster each dificulity etc

Still the same enemies, increasing attack speed or extending attacks doesn't alter much plus if you have any form of enemy sense you can prepare.
