Even with 99 Stamina, wearing this armor set still makeīenkei’s Armor set also had an Axe and a Switch Glaive, however, Benkei’s Axe does not count as one piece of the set, so you can still use them for the full experience of Benkei. This armor set has a big boost to damage at 7 pieces and is good when you are from another weapon that are already focus on Stamina (Axe, Heavy Armor Builds…)ĭespite the focus on Splitstaff, this armor set requires a huge investment on Stamina, to wear it at B level. Even with 99 Stamina, I still got a 72% on the Weight stat (C) The main reason is because Benkei’s Armor – much like the boss himself, is pretty heavy. The main Armor set in the DLC that scale with Splitstaff is Benkei’s Armor, If you want to use this one, then Stamina is the must-have stat. You can combine both the normal boost to Onmyo Magic Power from those armor set and craft a full Inari set as well. At 4 pieces, you also grant the ability to weaken enemies’s defense with Onmyo Magic skill, this can be a huge boost to those Shikigami. You can combine Genmei Armor Set for a boost to your Onmyo Magic Power, along with some general Melee Armor Set. There are two types of armor to pick when you choose the Splitstaff. You can also combine two different armor sets to get some initial bonuses. While this increases your equipment weight and stamina recovery rate, the Benkei’s Armor set provides a 15% Melee Damage at 7 pieces and has a pretty good Defense stat.īelow was my stat when I switched to Splitstaff (Previous weapon was Axe) Nioh 2 Splitstaff Build | Armor SetĪs Splitstaff scale with Magic, below armor sets can be a good pick to boost your elemental damage. If you picked Benkei’s Armor, you will need around 60 Stamina to accumulate his full armor set. Updated for Nioh 2 PC: From Dream of the Wise, you can go past 99, and Magic is still the best stat to go for Splitstaff. If your main weapon was Switch Glaive, switching to Splitstaff requires almost to no change – as Splitstaff scale with Magic.ĭepend on your choice of Armor, you can then pick another secondary stat on NG+ (Dream of the Strong – DoS) & NG++ (Dream of the Demon – DoD) As soon as you unlock your first skill point for the Splitstaff – The Fluid Form skill will let you access the Extended mode of the Staff.Īs this is a DLC weapon – meaning it happens after the Story mode, we will all assume that you already maxed out one of the stats and currently looking for a new weapon. The Splitstaff has two modes: Normal and Extended modes. The Splitstaff is also good for applying abnormal statuses to the enemies thanks to it’s multi-hit on Extended mode. It combines the fast attack speed of tonfa and the Target Combo of Spear. Although the main stat is Magic, Splitstaff requires some skill to master its combo and attacks. This makes Onmyo Magic build an easy switch to this new weapon. Splitstaff scale with Magic – Same scale with Switch Glaive. An Extended version Staff (Trigger by holding either Square or Triangle during attacks) – Extends the range of your Attacks to hit more, consume more Stamina in the process.Staff – This is the default form, simply pressing Square/ Triangle will result in several quick and wide range combo.

In this DLC, Nioh 2 also introduces Splitstaff – a new weapon that can change between two forms: This is not the first time this guy appear in video game. The Tengu Discipline is the first DLC content for Nioh 2 – featuring a new story arc with Yoshitshune – a historical figure that appears in various Samurai Warriors games.
