2. About This FAQ

=====ও====================================================

I have wanted ꦯto do a FAQ for Ninj🅰a Gaiden for quite some time now, me and this

series have a storied and💖 bloody history. I have played, and b⛄eaten, each and

every game in the series dying horrendously as I tried to do so. N✤inja Gaiden

Sigma is the third iteration of Ninja Gaiden and it isnt as good as the tw⛎o

that came before but its an enjoyable game. I am going to start my𒁏 FAQ writing

on the series here and work backwards.

4. Weapons

======================🦩===================================

The following is a list of all the weapo🐟ns in the game and their uses. I am not

going to get into the combos since this is easily accessed from wi♈thin the game

itself, so its redundant to print it here.

----------------------------------------------

Dragon Sword (Plasma Saber/True Dragon Sword)

----------------------------------------------

The Dragon Sword (or Plasma ꩲSaber) is the default weapon and it is probably the

best weapon 👍in the game. It is꧒ useful in almost all situations and you will

very rarely be unable to usꦿe it to beat any regular enemies or even bosses. It

is very useful for blocking attacks and hurling off quic꧅k counter att☂acks to

decima﷽te groups of enemies. If you can charge it up it is even more use๊ful and

morﷺe than🐭 capable of wiping out even the harder enemies with ease.

----------------------------------------------

Nunchuku / Vigoorian Flails

----------------------------------------------

While ridiculously weak these weapons are great for ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚfighting 🍃smaller enemiesa

dn some c൩ertain bosses. You can rac⛦k up some serious combos with these weapons

and juggle eneಞmies with a fair amount oဣf ease. If you know how to use it and

where, and when, the enemies are most vulnerable you can even ♔use it on the

stronger enemies and certain boꦿsses. These weapons are hard to control 𒀰however

and you are just as likely to pull off the wrong c🐽ombo as you are🌄 to do the

right one. Also it is sometimes hard to judge your attacks until🔯 you g♔et very

used to wielding these.

----------------------------------------------

Lunar

----------------------------------------------

The Lunar is essential𝓀ly a combat staff, bladed and ready to kill. Even though

it can hit the enemies rapidly it isnt very powerful. You are just as like🦩ly to

combo an enemy and🐼 have them survive the attack to get up and attack you. The

weapon needs to ♕be powered up to level 3, in the least, before it does damage

that is comparable to the other weapon🌊s🧔. Its slower than the nunchuku type

weapons and weaker than the swords until then.

Your best bet is to use it to counter attack the e🅠nemieᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚs. Dodge them, pound

them down and then꧂ unleash a combo. Thats the best way to use it.

----------------------------------------------

Dragon Claw & Tiger Fang

----------------------------------------------

Right here are the new💞 weapons added into Ninja Gaiden Sigma and they ꦏare some

really awes✱omeꦗ weapons. They can unleash more hits than the regular katanas,

they do more damage and they just look💞 awesome doing it. However the problem is

in the recovery time; recovꦯering from a combo can take awhile especially if you

miss. Its not a ൲good idea to use these on the bosses or the larger enemies,

the delay can cost you some serious health.

----------------------------------------------

Dabilahro

----------------------------------------------

Second only to the Unlabored 💙Flawlessness in sheer power, the Dabilahro is the

powerhouse weapon of ꧃choice for most of the game. You shouldnt simply try to

attack enemi𓂃es out of hand with this bad boy, you will get hit 🅘for your trouble

and lik💞ely get hurt bad. You need to use its sheer power and range to your

advantage.෴ Use it for counter-attacks and to hit enemi🌌es at a distance who

arent trying to close in on you at the moment. Otherwise its not woᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚrth the

trouble of using it. Its Ultimate Techniqu༺e is really awesome though.

----------------------------------------------

Kitetsu

----------------------------------------------

Due to the loss of itಞs life-draining abilities the Kitetsu is 🐽essentially one

giant paperweight now. It used to be 🐷the rapid fire attack version of the

Dragon Sword, wi𝔉th thꦰe same combos but doing more damage (due to it splitting

into two swords). 🦂It has a really cool Ultimate Technique but o♐ther than that

it isnt really allജ that good. Just wait for the True Dragon Sword.

----------------------------------------------

War Hammer

----------------------------------------------

This wea𝓀pon is worthless. For the short time that you have it (and not the

Dabilahro😼 or UF) it is useful for just powering through enemy defences. Sadly,

that is about its only usefulness.

----------------------------------------------

Wooden Sword / Unlabored Flawlessness

----------------------------------------------

The Wooden Sword is worthless, lets get that out ofꦯ the way right now. But the

end r🦄esult of upgrading it the required seven times is the most powerful, and

slowest, weapon i𒅌n the game. The Unlabored Fl🌠awlessness is essentially a giant

boat oar that is a more powerful versio⛄n of the𝓰 Dabilharo. The only major

difference between the two (other than combos) 🐽is that the UF will get powered

up when you are about to 💧die. At less than 10% of your health it will start to

do around two times the norma⛄l damage to enemies per hit. This is basically ♐a

guaranteed kill forꦜ minor enemies and some serious damage to bosse💛s.

----------------------------------------------

Dark Dragon Blade

----------------------------------------------

F⛦or me, this replaced the Dabilharo and Unlabored Flawlessness since it come🦋s

to y🦩ou fully upgraded and super powerful. While it is slow, and seriously hard

to get, it is more thaဣn cap💟able of wrecking hell on the enemies that get in

your 𝕴way. There isnt much else to say about it, get your hands on it and see

what havoc you can bring down on your foes.

==============================================

Projectile Weapons

==============================================

Shurikens

----------------------------------------------

Small and barely damaꦏging, the Shuriken are mostly good for stunning enemies

before you hit them with a melee combo.🌸 They are thrown in groꦓups of three and

you can hurl them to your hearts content☂ just🉐 dont expect them to do much in

the ways of damage.

----------------------------------------------

Windmill Shuriken

----------------------------------------------

While you can use this the same as the regul🗹ar shuriken but you can only throw

one at a time and you have to wait for it to come back befo♌re you can fling any

morಞe. It is a fair sight more powerful tha💛n the regular ones but it will still

be pretty useless against bosses anyways.

----------------------------------------------

Incendiary Shurikens

----------------------------------------------

Think of these as꧃ shuriken bombs. If you hit an enemy with them they will do a

fair amount ๊of damage but you really cannot afford to miss. You cant carry all

that many with you at once so use them sparingly.

----------------------------------------------

Bow / Strongbow

----------------------------------------------

T⛄he bow is the means of firing arrows at your enemies. The b💃asic arrow is kind

of weak but it will get the job done. You can snipe off enemies at a range wit🅺h

it and, new to this game, you can fire♛ arrows while jumping. This gives you

some ▨dodging abilities while trying to ranged attack the🌱 enemies.

The Sཧtrongbow is simply a more damaging version of the bow. Your arrows will do

more damage when fired from this upgraded bow.

----------------------------------------------

APFSDS Cores

----------------------------------------------

These are the rocket laun▨chers of Ryu's arsenal,🐲 only use these against bosses

or very specific ene𓄧mies since they are hard to come by and 🔴are overkill in

most sit⛎uations. Simply fire ꦆand expect things to die.

----------------------------------------------

Explosive Cores

----------------------------------------------

While weaker than the APFSDS Cores, the Explos💞ive arrows are still quite a bit

more powerful than the normal arrows. These are good for use on regular enemie🌜s

or weaker boss monsters. You should be careful♛ in how you use these though as

you cannot carry all that many of them.

----------------------------------------------

Spear Gun

----------------------------------------------

This is used for very particuꦜlar sections while underwater. Since its your

only ch𒐪oice at the time go ahead and use it. Its not useful otherwise.

==========𒈔===========================𝕴====================

5. Ninpo

==========================================𒀰﷽===============

Ninpo is the ninja magic that Ryu c🐲an use to make his life, and fights, easier.

It is activated by the Circl𝓰e and Triangle buttons pressed together and you can

power it up by s༺haking the controller up and d🥀own. Ninpo is selected from the

inventory scre🧸ens. For the most part it all serves the same purpose, protecting

you while you cast and doing damage. So use it 💎when it seems necessary or if

you are hurt and need to reach a save point.

=============𒉰========================================🅰====

6. Walkthrough

====================================================༺=====

Chapter 1

=============

Search the dead body for an elixir and the🐬n eliminate the twꦜo ninjas that come

out. Continue up the hill towards the fortress. Jump the gap and🎃 open the first

of many Kunai scrꦿolls. Grab the ledge and shimmy across. Now run up the💙 tree

and you will come across two more enemies.💯 Cut🍨 then down and then wall run

across the pit. Snatch the item out of the🔯 chest before you j☂ump towards the

branc💫h that is sticking out of the mountain. Swing across to the next ledge and

use the wall leap 💟(Bi✃rd Flip) move to reach the top of the shaft. You will have

enemies to fight up here as soon as you head f🍬or the pathway.

Enter𝓰 the fortress. As soon ✱as you are inside you will have to fight two more

enemies. Go into the next room and you will be locked iꦛn with three enemies.

Kill them, take the item from the chest and h𒆙ead into the next room. This next

room is a bit tough, a group of enemies will come out from the ceil🌳ing. This

is a good opportunity to test out your charge up attacks. Go through t🎃he door

in🔴to the๊ next room (there are some items to be found here, but ignore the 

samurai statue for now).♛ Exit through the door opওposite you.

Continue into the new room and search nearby to find a Li♌ves of the Thousand

Gods item. Go into th🔜e room and ninjas will come down a💟nd attack you. Kill the

lot of them and open the chest to🎀 obtain ♛the Flying Swallow Scroll. Exit by

destroying the wall scroll next to the pot. 

This room is a pain in the ♕rear but also a good place to harvest essence. Avoid

the trap⛎door in the back of tꩵhe room and take out the enemies. They will come

out in pairs from the rotating doors on th✤e sides of the room until you have

fought about 12 of them. Once t🐭hey are all dead avoid the trapdoor and head ✱to

the back of the room and cut down this wall scroll. Go 🀅through, save your game

and then drop down through the trapdoor.

Kill the bats using the shurikens while you destroy🐎 the pots until you find the

൲items hidden down here. There is a chest down here that has the Fangs of the

Samurai item in it, dont leave before getting it. Bust💞 the lanterns and head

out, grabbing the next kunai scrol🧔l and continuing upwards. Two enemies will

burst from around 🤡a corner, kill them ൩and then enter the room. Grab the item

from the chest and drop back down into an earlier passage. From this r𒆙oom head

back to the Samurai statue and use the fangs on it. This wi🎃ll give you the Key

of Courage.

Head back through the room with the revolving walls (the🐼 enemies will be back)

and dart through or fight the enemies as you please. Gᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚo into the next𒅌 room and

save your game be💛fore going up the stairs. Head along the walkway and kill off

the two ninjas t💮hat try to intercept yo🗹u. Use the Key of Courage to unlock the

door and youre♎ almost to the🎃 boss. You will have to fight about 6 ninjas in

here although they come out in groups of 2 ๊to start with. Kill them and head on

into the next room to fight the boss.

****************************

Stage Boss: Murai

****************************

For a first boss, who looks like a doofus, Murai is inc💯redibꦇly difficult. You

cant afford to let him combo you or grab you, so you have to keep🌼 moving. There

are two ways to go about this; one is to keep 🐈moving and use wall run attacks

paired with diving slashes to weaken him slowly but surely, the 🌊other is more

dangerous but less time consuming.

If you keep you♐r distance from Murai he w𒁏ill attempt to pull off a three hit

combo or charge yꦐou. You can use the roll maneuver to avoid the worst of 🍃his

attacks and then retaliate with a two or three hit combo. Essenti🧸ally stayꦆ just

out of reach of his grab (about a sword strikes distance plus a ♍little more)

and wait for him to try any form of attack. If he tries a combo dodge h🍸im and

retuꦬrn fire. Should he charge you instead, bolt away with a roll and then try

♛a co💟mbo. You should be able to lock him into this his attack, you dodge and

counter, repeat, over and over again.

Dont try getting behind him for an attack or he will mule 💮kick you in൲ the face.

Just keep your patience and you should be able to take him down🍃 slowl🦂y but

safely enough.

=============

Chapter 2

=============

Go baꦇck to the svae point and save before you head 🃏out of the Fortress. You are

heading towards the giant loc💯ked doors you couldnt get through before. Go on

through and kill the bats. Grab the scroll⛎ off the altar to get the Fire Whee💛l

Ninpo. Ride the elevator in her💮e to the bottom and head on out. You will be in

a gras♚sy area, you need to use a wall run to get to the next ledge. There is a

chest here, grab the smoke bomb from it.

When you move to leave three samurai will come out. You will need a❀ different

strategy to fight these guys since they ꩲwill block a🔥 lot more often than the

ninjas did. Yourꦚ best bꦦet is to kill one of them using whatever means you so

choose and then cꩲharge up using his essen🐻ce to wipe out the other two. All you

need to do is to get used to doing this and these guys are no♌ problem.

Head down the patཧh and slide down the slope,🍰 leaping before you fall off into

the water and grabbing the branch. Go fr𓆏om there, leaping along the branc🐷hes

until you get to la♋nd whe🥃re you will fight some more samurai. Kill them and

keep moving.

You have reached the village and are going to be greete🌠d by a group of samurai.

Kill them off and then climb the watchtower ladder where you will find a che💝st

with🍃 the Hayabusa Village Map in it. 🍷From here you need to head towards the

broken bridge where you must either water run acr💎oss, or swim, to t♏he next

ledge.

As you enter the village continue♉ heading straight forward and you will be

attacked by a grouꦅp of samurai with warlocks accompanyi🌌ng them. The warlocks

are you biggest priority right now so dodge the samurai (rollin🌜g works) and

kꦿill the warlocks with a combo. Use the essence they drop to kill the samurai

off. Doing this repeatedly w🥂ill cl🍒ear this area out easily. 

Search the areaꦿ to find a Jizo Head, retu🐽rn to the entrance and place it on the

statue there (the one without aꦿ head obviously) and you will be given another

Life of the Gods. Head back down a꧅nd save your ga⛦me. Move towards the middle of

the village and jump up to the window led♓ge along the left side. Cutscene time!

You will get the bow from Ayane now. Go down from her𒐪e and you will be in a

small supply depot with a Muramasa Stat♒ue in it. Use your essence how you lik🃏e

and then head on out.

Exit the supply areaꦇ and more samurai will come after you. You can find arrows

on a dead body here (kind of morbid...). Use t🧸hem on the three targets above

the fence and you will get red, blue and yellow essence. I sug🤡ge𒅌st you save the

game right now as your😼e about to fight an obnoxious mini-boss.

****************************

Mini-Boss: Mounted Samurai

****************************

You will be attacked by a🎉 pair of samurai,🍸 one wielding a naginata and the

other using a bow. They are going to attempt to circle ar♉ound💙 you will picking

at your health until you are dead. The🍸 key to surviving this fight is in your

nearly unbreakable defenses.

What you want to do is to keep moving after one ofꦐ the horsem📖en, trying to cut

them off and wait for🌊 them to attack you. Move to hit the horse in the rear and

pull off a two or three hit combo. If you h🌠it it hard enough the horse will

rear up and🐈 neigh loudly. This is a great chance for you to beat on it yet once

again. You should b💧e able to hit it with at least three or four combos before

it moves away from you. Repeat this until you knock him off his𒉰 horse (tha🍸ts

the end of the ꦫhorse) and then use the essence from the horse 💎to maul the now

ground based samurai.

Once he dies another is going to come out from over the ro🔯cks, but th🐟is should

not be a problem. Simply 📖use the same straꦚtegy to take out the rest of them.

You will have to contend with a total of four horsemen so prepare t♉o spend s⭕ome

time here.

****************************

Fight over!

****************************

Alrigh𝓀t now that the mounted bosses are done for head for the save point. Us♋e

it and jump over the rubble to find a dead body🍸 with 𒈔an Elixir on it. Head for

Muramasas statue and restoc𒀰k before saving yet again. Once youre done head for

the Central Bridge to fight the boss.

****************************

Stage Boss: Masakado

****************************

This dude🃏 scared the living hell out of me the first time I f𝓀ought him. He

uses the same attacks as the naginata weildin🅘g horsemen (yo🅘ur block should be

more than enough) but the warlocks are a problem. They will keep hitt🅠ing you

with fireballs ꧒while you try to fight Masakado, so you canꦯt just focus on him.

The be𝓀st way to beat him is to wait for him to be⛎ at the other end of the

bridge, preparing to come afteܫr you before doing anything. Once he is there, go

after the warlocks and kill th𓆏em. Now face Maskakado and pull in the essence

as you charge for an Ultimate Technique. Wait for him 🐼to near you and unleash

the attack on him. You only n🅺eed to do this four or five times to kill him.

Its simple as that.

****************************

End battle!

****************************

Grab the scroll and head through the doౠorway to enter the next area. Save your

game as soon as you can. Go into the burning🎃 courtyard and defeat the warlocks

here. Head into the house and kill the samu♋rai here, you will find them behind

the paper walls. Warlocks will be coming out as well, so🅘 make sure ꦏyou get to

them. Head on out of the house into the backyard and prepare to fight o✤ne of

the hardest fights in the game.

****************************

Stage Boss: Doku

****************************

Yes this stage has two bosses but thats for a very good reason. If you⭕ so much

as get hit, th🐲is fꩲight is over. Now if you really dont care simply let him hit

you and proceed w🧜ith the game. But if yoඣu want to unlock Mission mode you are

g♚oing to need to be very careful when fighting him.

Realistically this fight is pretty direct. None of his moves shℱould be too hard

to a🌄void especially if you are good at rolling away from attacks by now. The

bulk of what you need to do here is to let him attack you and then💖 you roll out

of the way, then move in and pull off a three hit combo. As soon a🍬s  your third

hit connects roll away. Repeat t♎his as necessary but do not let hi🥂m get even

a single hit in or this fight is over.

It will take a long while but this is really the only way to win this 🐬fight.

=============

Chapter 3

=============

Search the room꧋ to𓆏 find an Elixir before you save the game. Head into the

halꦬlway and you will see a number of other rooms. One room has an Elixir of the

Devil Way inside while the other has Map in it. When you gౠrab the map two of

the sol🐲diers will burst on into the room via the windows. They are basically

the same as the samurai except they can 🤡grab you for a pretty painful hit. Go

on out into the🧔 hallway and head for the double doors♋. As before the windows

work as doors for thဣes🦂e soldiers so more are going to come in. Once they are

all d♈ead, grab the key and exit through the🌳 double doors.

Kill off the soldiers and use the right staircase (gᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤🌜⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚoing down) and use the left

staircase to reach a Muramasa Statue (he has some new items and upgrades🦹). Now

head down the right stairs and you wi𝓀ll reach a save point, so use that. In the

office to the left is a Li♚fe of the Gods but to the right is where you need to

go, so head there. Take the door in the office ✃to a fight, you shౠould enter the

room holding t𒉰he block button to ensure no cheap shots. Take out the soldiers

and then use the now opened door.

You will be in a hallway now. Head for the double doors and unlock them so t꧋hat

✅you can use them to get back to the initial hallway (right out꧟side the cabin

you started in). Go back to the door you came into this hall൲way from and use

the door across from it.🔜 Grab the scarab and Map of Tairon fr꧅om near the desk

and use the elevator.

You are now on the main flight 🐎deck of the ship, run across to the other side

of the room to finꦛd another elevator. Use it 💙and go down, being ready to beat

down on some more soldiers. Kill ꦡthem and the commander who fo𝓰llows to find

the ID Card. Open the𒆙 door next to the elevator and get the dual katanas from a

chest in there. Now go back up to the fli✃ght deck and go through the d🍌oor near

to you to fight two more soldiers. Use the exit🥂 to reach another sav𒐪e point, so

use that. Go through the door across 🐈from you to head on outside.

Go across the bridge and use the ID card t🐓o enter the෴ Container Room. Destroy

the crates to▨ clear theဣ way and get some more arrows. Head to the other end of

the room and use the turnstile switch. Turn it three♛ times and soldiers will

come into the room (🌞via the windows again). Kill them oꦡff and then rotate the

handle until the door opens.

Run🌳 towards the ledge and take out your bow. A group of soldi🏅ers will come out

and try to blast you with guns🃏 and a rocket launchers. Use the bow to take them

out and then use the zipline t🅰o get to the other side. Follow the walkway until

you find a commander s🐓oldier and kill him. Now bust the window 💝here and jump on

into the engine room. Bust up the room until t꧒he engines are down. All of the

locks will open now so you can move freely through the꧒ sh𓂃ip. Head back to the

room tha🐼t Ryu started off in killing the soldiers who dare get in your way. If

you want to, take a detour through the double doors and save the game (and ⭕use

the Muramasa statue again if you like).

Head back to the Storage Room⛦ that was near your starting point. Go on♔ into it

and fight off the enemies in here. This chal💟lenge will get you a Livꦏes of the

Gods item, as well as there being a Gol൲den Scarab in here. Now head through the

 double doors and save the game (and use ♔the Muramasa statue again if you like).

Go to the main cabin and use the previous🤪ly locked metal doors to reach the

boss. Head up the metal stairways and defeat ♎꧃the soldiers that are in your way

a🅘nd start making your way up to the top of this area. Soon you 𝐆will reach a

ladder. Use the wall jump to reach a small side room with a ꧅switch that will

open the rooftop access. Now yo꧂u can climb the ladder to fight the Dynamo. If

you ඣwant to save or use the Muramasa statue do it now.

****************************

Stage Boss: Dynamo

****************************

Lets just get one thing out of the way, you desp𝔉erately need him to not use his

medium or long range attacks. They are powerf✅ul, hard to dodge attacks whereas

his melee attacks arent🍸. In reality beating him is pretty easy so long as you

stay close e💟nough to avoid him using these attacks but not close enough to be

grabbed by him.

By doing this he will attempt to 🌱bash you with🐬 melee attacks. His attack will

likely break your block and cause him to try and grab you. ROLL a🦄way ꧑as soon as

your block is broken and then do a three hit combo. He wil🧔l start another melee

attack as youre hitting him, so quiꩵckly block and then roll away before🅰 you try

to repeat 🌺the melee combo. Keep this up and its like nothing.

If thi🥃s is too r🐬isky for you, you will need to keep your distance and run in

circles arou🔯nd him. Wait for him to exhaust his laser cannon blasts, rolling to

help you dodge the꧙m and jumping to help avoid the last, and then do a dashing

attack (or a leaping attack). As soon as you hit him pull off a✅ two or three

hit combo before quickly retreating and going back to that. This i🍸s dange༒rous

bec🀅ause if his cannon hits you youre going to lose most of your hea🎶lth in one

or two hits. Pick your poison.

=============

Chapter 4

=============

Save your game and head down to f꧃ight a group of soldiers. Follow the alley and

you will end up in Twin Serpents Plaza. Pretty monument, but totally usel🦄ess

right now. Head towards the open♑ alleyway and kill off the soldiers before you

use the open door.  Search the dead body here to find the Guillotine Th𝓀row

scroll. Approach the Red Jeweled door ti trigger an amb🥂ush.

Kill off the soldi🍰ers and the red door wi🐎ll open up so head on through. You are

now in Dworku alley. Kill off the sold𓃲iers in here and head towards the other

end of the alley. Follow the winding alley to reach a large💫 pot with the Lunar

in it. Grab it and double back, taking𒅌 the stairs downwards. Go right and keep

heaไding tha🍌t way towards the next staircase. Two soldiers will pop out on you

wheౠn you approac𒉰h the stairs so pull out your bow and knock them off.

Head up the stairs and read the kunai. Now wall run𓆏 up to the blue ledge, move

🌊ܫalong it to the left and drop down onto the balcony. Grab the zip line from

here and take it across. Kill off the soldiers that come fromꦫ the staircase and

grab the nunchu☂ks from the dead body. Save your game and then head out through

the yellow jewel door.

You will end up in the Clock Tower plaza. Head through the blue lined ಌdo﷽or and

head up the stairs to run into some soldiers. Kill 🌜them off and head ꦑtowards

the balcony. Time to handle some Black Spider Clan ninjas. These guys ꦇcan be

tough until you get used to fight them, 𝓡counterattacks are your most reliable

way of taking them out.

Now head down through the Sqꦐare past the multi-jeweled door and you wil🍌l get a

🐼cutscene💫. Go on into Muramasas shop and do whatever business you have to do

there. Move towards the Gr🌊een Jeweled door outside to trigger another ambush.

Kill them off and head through the door. 

Move into the middle of this area to tri🎐gger a ninja ambush. Wipe them out and

then head to the metal door, unlocking it. Now head up the stairs and k🅷ill off

the ninjas that attack. Move tꦗhrough the alley the ninjas🥂 came out of and use

the wall jump to get on🌺 top of the ledgꦑe here. Wall run across the blue lined

wa𝔍ll to ge♐t to the other side. Go through the door and follow the ledge to find

a dead body, grab the di🍌ary off the body. Move to the 🐲end of this walkway to

reach a level and 🦩chest. Grab the items from the chest and flip 🥃the switch. You

will haveꦆ unlocked the multi-colored door with this one. Hop off the ledg😼e to

fight some soldiers. Kill them and then head through saiꦛd🃏 multi-colored jeweled

door to reach Pleasure Street.

As you head through the area, kil🐟l off the ninꦍjas that try to ambush you and

continue towards Hans Bar🐲. As 𓄧you near it you will be attacked by a group of

motorcy🐓cle soldiers. These guys are annoying but its not too bad if you are any

good with the Flyingℱ Swallow. Use that attack repeatedly to unseat all of the

riders and then take them out while they are on the ground. Grab the ✤Lilly K🔯ey

off the ground and head to the bar.

Chapter 5

=============

Time for some Rachel action. All I have to say to this is m๊eౠh. She is slow and

clunky to use although she makes up for it with she𝓰er power. Meh I say! I want

my Ryu! Well anyways, its time to🍬 use her for a bit.

Save your game and ꦇproceed forward. Wipe out the soldiers who come out and use

the gate to leave. Kill off the sol♓diers who come ♉out here as well and take out

the Chopper thro🌜ugh whatever means please you. Keep moving towards the

Monastary Plaza. 

Kill off the s🙈oldiers in here before heading up the stairs to take out yet some

ꦦmore soldiers. Grab the Dworku Monastary key off the ground and head back to

Monastery Plaza. Use the Muramasa꧅ statue♑ now to restock and then head into the

plaza. You will be ambushed by a 🥂group of shadow fiends. Since Rachels best

strength lies in her counterattacks use that to beat these guys. Now usౠe the

key on the double gate.

Take out more shadow fiends on🥂ce youre inside and then save your game. Head up

the path towards the altar ha𝓡ll. Take out all the shadow fiends here u༺sing the

same tactics and then take the door to the right side of t🎐he room into the 

Archives Room. Kill off the ninjas in here, being very careful👍 since thꦺeyre

harder🅰 for Rachel 🔴than Ryu, and then go up the stairs.

=============

Chapter 6

=============

Save your game and open the chest. Now make your 🥃way ꦅout of the bar by jumping

down off the roof (same place where Gamov lept off). You will have to 🔜figh✃t off

some more Motorcycle enemies here, take them ou🌃t using the same method as you

did before. Use the save point and lea♏ve this stꦐreet.

Grab the Kunai𓂃 scroll that Ayane throws at you. She✱ informs you about the

hidden ♋weapon which is 𝓀the Windmill Shuriken. You will need to wall run along

the blue lines 𒁃repeatedly until you reach the end. It will make your life a 🧜lot

easier to get up there if y𒉰ou 🍌perform a dashing attack while airborne. Grab the

Windmꦚill Shuirken and then jump ⭕down. You now need to make your way back to the

Bronze Lily. 

Head on through the door a💫nd kill off the soldiers. Continue down the alleyway

♑and kill off the enemies that come after you. Fol🅠low it until you get through

the zigzagging passage untဣil you reach a save point. Save an♛d go up the stairs

to find your way to Drawbridge Square. 

ꦉKill the motorcycle soldiers in here 🍒and then go through the blue door. Take

out th🀅e enemies and continue until you see a chest. Grab th🌄e Pegasus Key from

it. Make your way back to Moat Road and kill off ꦚthe ninjas again. Now use the

Pe✅gasus Key on the gate, go inside and pull thജe lever. This lowers the bridge

in Drawbridgeꦬ Square. Save and head across the drawbridge. Go up the stairs

to the save point, kill the ninja🅰s t🥂hat pop out and then save the game. Use the

Muramasa statue and then head down the stairs into M🐟onastery Plaza.

The gate will lock you🦄 in and soldiers will start jumping down. Take out the

soldiers here and the gates will unlock. Continue forward and ignore the fಞront

gates of th𓂃e monastery. Go around the 🌱side and kill off the ninjas who will

try to ambush you. S𝔉earch the area for a chest, grab the items from it. Now

continue ahead until you are locked int𒐪o another area.

Kill off the motorcycle soldiers who come out, use the same strategy as bef🌠ore

to take them out. Watch the cuts꧒cene and now its time for a mid-boss who will

become a regular enemy later on.

Mini-Boss: Red Dinosaurs

****************************

These g☂uys are really fearsome looking but they arent all that hard. You can

block or roll away ﷽from all of their attacks with relative ease. There are two

simple ways to take them out, one be🥂ing a bit more dange🎃rous than the other.

If you are feeling like taking ✤a risk then heres what you do; get into their

face and let 🐻them attack you. Block the attack and theꦰn hit them with a two or

⛄three hit combo. I♉mmediately roll away and then attack again if possible or

block if he starts a combo. You migh༒t need to run away every so often since

there are three of them and coming from the front isnౠt always easy.

The other way to go about thi🌠s is to k🦂eep your distance and let them charge at

you. When they do so dodge at the last 🐻second and they will ram into theꦡ wall.

From here you can pull off at least one good combo♛ befor🔜e they arent staggered

a♔ny more. They will do a spinning tail whip when they turn around so bꩲe careful

of this. Either way you go about it, they arent all 🥀that hard.

****************************

Boss: Hydracubus

****************************

Th🥃is guy is pathetically easy so long as you know two key things: one, if you

stay close to hi🍨m he will not use his dangerous acid ball attack which is good

and two, y🌳ou can block his tentacles but they will break your block. That means

that you have to roll away immꦦediately or ge🎐t hit. So the trick here is to stay

💙right on💫 top of him and block when youre not attacking, simple.

Use the flying swallow at🌞tack to sever his two tentacles, simply spammin🐈g the

attack repeatedly until he loses both of them. No𒅌w abso𒅌rb both essence and

unlea💜sh the attack on him, this should devastate his health. Now combo him over

and over until his tentacles grow back. Now r🗹epeat the tentacle loppind and he

will die soon enough. Dont even use any Ninpo on this dork, i🐻ts a waste.

Chapter 7

=============

Open the chests to grab a Life of the Th🌌ousand Gods and then save you🎀r game. Go

up the stairs and open t📖he chests here to find more items. Proceed to🃏wards the

archway and kill off t🦩he enemies who come after you. Jump down to find a

Muramasa statue, restock and then 🎉continue on outside. Grabꦡ the item from the

chest nearby and then make y꧙our way towards the Monastery entrance.🦹 Take out

the Shadow Fiends who come aftꦺer you and then use the save point neaꦐr the

entrance. I suggest opening the double doors here, it 🐈wilꦰl lead to fighting

some more fiends but thats a fair price.

Enter the Monastery and go up the walkway. Search the area for chests, igဣnore

the alter and then open t🌜he door on the right. You are locked in now, so kill

off the enemies as quickly as possib♕le. Now head up the stairs and search the

floor for items. Now wall jump♏ up to the top floor 🔯to find a golden scarab. Use

the Incendiary 🏅Shurikens to break open the wall 𓆉up here. This brings in another

wave of enemies so take them o🔯ut and head on out of the room using the door.

Go after all the chests up here and then🦄 take the door at the other side of the

balcony. Read the b✨ook on the desk in here and use t🙈hat to open the safe. You

can tell if youre doing it right by the l💛ights tur🧔ning blue. Grab the Book of

the Eons f♕rom the safe, kill off the enemies who ambush you and then jump down

back into the Altar Hall. Place the book on the alter to o𓆉pen up the path and

then kill off the enemies who come out.

Jump down, kill off the bats and search the dead body. Grab the Map♏ for this

place f꧙rom the chest, grab the﷽ golden scarab and kill any enemies you must. Now

save the ga🌠me and proceed on through the gate nearby. Use an Incendiary

Shuriken on the wall nearby to start an Ind𓆉iana Jones style sequence. You will

need to j♋ump over spiဣkes in your path but you can move a bit faster if you use

wall runs when possible. At the💜 end of this you will see Ryu leap to a metal

bar, so you🐈re good. Move across the bars until you can re🍌ach the save. Save thy

game grasshopper.

Start to descend the spiral ramp, using the Windmiꦍll shuriken to kill enemies

as you go. When you reach the d🔯ino bones kill off the Shadow Fiends ♑and take

note of the altar. ඣGo through the met🍰al gate and kill off the wasp fiends.

🀅Search this room to find golden scarabs and a life of the go꧅ds. Leave and go

to the save point, save your game and keep going down. At the bottom you 🅠will

fight some more enemies, kill themꦺ off and use the Muramasa statue to refill

on your supplies.

Move into the Tomb of Eons and you will🌠 find a circular platform. Use a ground

pound attack to make thisꦗ thing start moving. You will need to kill off some

Shadow🌌 Fiends as it descends, so keep killing until the platform sto𒆙ps moving.

Exit through the doorway, open the chest nearby to𓃲 find the Vigoorian Flails

and then save your game. Go through the o💦pposite🌄 door to find some fun.

Kill the wasps in here ﷺand then its time for new enemies🐈. These zombies are a

major pain, they take a fair amount of damage and there🐲s almost always an

archer 😼with them. Get to the archer, kill him off (his arr꧑ows hurt like hell)

a🎐nd then take out the rest of them. You will need to kill a bunch of the♊se

guys, incℱluding four archers to end this. Graওb the Holy Grail when all is said

and done and leave the room.

You might want to ignore the enemies that appꦅear in your path, kill them or not

its up to you. Get back to the circular platform and hit it to sꦬtart it moving

again. You will have to kill zombies as you go up ♉and especially the zombies

who make it stop part of the way꧙ up. Kill enough of them and it will starℱt to

move again. Make your way back🍃 to the save point (killing enemies as you go)

and then head back to the altar near the ꧟gian🃏t dead dino. Use the Holy Grail on

it to start your next boss fight.
