Nioh: Which Weapon Is Right For My Playstyle

Dual Swords

Which Weapon Is Right for Your Playstyle

Dual Swords area easily the fastest weapons in Nioh, allowing you to rapidly fire off attacks against enemies. They certainly lack in strength, but can easily overwhelm enemies with pure speed and agility. Each stance lets you use quick attacks to set enemies off balance, and open them up to a strong attack.

However, the Dual Swords don’t have great AoE, as they’re focused on specific attacks. These weapons are usually best for players of high skill that can get right up in enemies’ faces, and stay on their toes. If you aren’t willing to constantly be on the attack, then you might want a different weapon choice.

Pros – Very fast, good combos
Cons – Lacks AoE, difficult to use
Stat – Skill, Dexterity
