Today I will be showing you the results of my testing on the last mystic art skills for Axes, Spears, and Dual Swords in Nioh. If you haven't seen my last video I tested the Mystic art skills for Swords, Kusarigama, Onmyo Magic, and Ninja skills. I am going to leave the description and link at the bottom of the description if you would like to see my results from those.

So I started my testing with spears in Nioh. The two Mystic arts in spears are: Fluidity- Allows you to use Spear Stance Change from any stance, and lets you combo into any stance from spear stance change, and Stability- Prevents thrusts from ricocheting off walls, and extends the range of your attacks.

Fluidity- With the Spear Stance change available in any stance this really opens you up to performing longer and more consistent combinations and keeps you Ki replenished very well.
Stability- this prevents you from getting knocked back when thrusting into a wall, the range buff is so small at 5-6% in isn't even noticeable.

For axes we have: Inner light- Massively boosts the damage you deal when in the Yokai Realm, and Intensity- which massively boosts the damage of attacks that reduce your Ki to zero or below.

Intensity- This axe mystic art is very inconsistent and clunky. You must hit the enemy with the last attack and deplete your Ki to get the effect. Not only does this put you into a bad position it also means that you are only receiving a small buff when compared to how many strikes are needed to deplete your Ki to zero. The hard number of this buff is 98%.
Inner light- this buff gives you a 50% damage increase when you are in the Yokai realm. Not the best buff but can be manipulated for good damage output.

For dual swords we have: Momentum- Landing an attack reduces the Ki usage of subsequent attacks. This effect can be boosted if you land another attack before it runs out., and firm resolve- Landing an attack reduces the amount of damage you take for a time, this effect can be boosted if you land another attack before it runs out.

Momentum- By far the best of the two, keeps around 60% of your Ki when used properly.
Firm resolve- Not very useful at all, it has a poor return for a short duration and is outclassed by other damage reducing buffs in the game.

Today I tested the Mystic arts in Swords, Kusarigama, Onmyo magic, and Ninjutsu in Nioh. Each skill tree has two Mystic arts to choose from, and today I want to tell you my opinions of which mystic art is best in each of these skill trees.

For the Sword mystic arts in Nioh we have the Sword of Salvation, which reduces the amount of Ki used for evasion, and the Sword of Execution, which increases rear attack damage. There are a ton of people using the Sword of Execution for rear attack damage builds so I wanted to find the percentage of attack increase.

Sword of Execution - The Sword of Execution in Nioh receives a 50% attack increase when striking an enemy from behind.

Sword Of Salvation- From my testing it seems to be a 10-15% decrease to ki usage while evading. This is a very bad Mystic art because that amount can roll on one piece of gear.

Kusarigama use two different parts of the weapon to cause damage. The sickle and the metal weight. The metal weight of the Kusarigama is used in most of the attacks, but has a smaller damage profile than the sickle. The Kusarigama Mystic arts are: Waxing crescent which increases sickle damage and reduces ki consumption and Shooting star which increases Metal Weight damage and reduces Ki consumption.

Shooting star- The metal weight receives a 20% increase to damage output and reduced ki consumption. Most of the quick attacks are with the Metal Weight so this is a very good buff.

Waxing Crescent- The Sickle receives an 8% attack increase and reduced Ki Consumption. This is not very good considering that there are much fewer attacks using the Kusarigama's sickle.

The two Onmyo magic Mystic arts in Nioh are: Amplification, which increases the duration of skill and item buffs and Awakening, which casts magic instantly on the user and faster cast speed on enemies.

Amplification- Increases the duration to skill and item buffs by 50%.

Awakening- Does cast the first spell instantly, however subsequent casts are under a small cooldown period.

Lastly we have Ninja Mystic arts these include: Enlightenment, instant cast speed for Ninja skills and Concealment which increases the attack damage of long range attacks.

Enlightenment- The same thing as Awakening for Ninja skills.

Concealment- Increases damage of Bows, Rifles, and Hand Cannons by 50% as well as thrown items. [ Ссылка ]
