it's a little hard to tell you what you're missing when we don't know what you have.

that it's only -one- prayer bead would mean you've got the two that are really unintuitive, though.

[Albireo]

hmm, so probably not the a boss or enemy related bead. you need a secret. only one I know is the audience room in the estate, gotta wall hug through a secret door and poof. very shortly after drunken guy.

Thanks for the help guys. I just found it turns out I missed a mini boss (Chained ogre) inside the burning Ashina castle and he dropped the last bead.

Well it looks like it’s time to head back to the estate.

The wall stands out, has a scroll on it and is framed like a door.

I was in the same situation, I thought I had made everything, but I was missing the optional mini-boss at the Mt Kongo - Temple Grounds idol, Long-Arm Centipede Sen-Un, who can be easily missed.

From the Temple Grounds idol, you've got that big flat temple in front of you, after the pond, next to that temple, at its right, slightly below, you've got another big temple, that's where the mini-boss is, surrounded by smaller centipedes, you can enter either from an opening in the roof or by a door below, the roof is the better option, as you can make an aerial stealth-kill on the mini-boss.

He's similar to the Long-Arm Centipede Giraffe mini-boss found in the Gun Fort, and as easy, you just have to deflect his flurry of attacks and jump over his unblockable, he pretty much kills himself, just deflect until his posture meter is full then finish him (kill the smaller centipedes first) :)

Now I just have to go to NG+ and do the "purification" ending in order to get those two final missing beads :)

[Albireo]

he is different in that there is a lot more space to do battle, which is a trap in itself as you never want to be anywhere but in his face. And he has a bunch of friends, easily dealt with via shuriken from the rafters if you enter via roof access.

Thanks! This was the only one I was missing!

The one that got me was in Sunken Valley:
After defeating Long-Arm Centipede Giraffe, there is a hole in the floor to the left of the statue. Crouch and follow the left path to the chasm. Follow the two grapple hooks to the right to the first platform. Look up and to the right for the next grapple point to the next platform. Walk across the platform then look down and to the left for the final grapple point. This item will be on the ground in the center the mini-centipedes and poison geckos.
