NIOH 2 – Bare Hands High DPS Build Guide

The bare-hand build is one of the latest contents. It’s a strong build and also quite funny to play with it. You will need a lot of skill points and items to play properly. Playing bare-handed needs a lot of knowledge of this game, especially the enemy’s attack patterns. Not like the “Punho” arma, the Bare-handed has nearly zero block property. You must dodge, not block. You could block a single attack but it will cost a lot of your HP and stamina. You need to cast a spell to use your bare hand. Without this spell, your attack is nearly nothing. Também, you need specific grace equipment. I’ll show you how I use it, even in the multiplayer game.

What You Need

Equipamento

• 6x Tajikarao’s Grace (1x Weapon (Punho) 2x Range 2x Acc)
• 4x Onmyo Warrior’s Armour Set (without Helmet)
• 1x Wild Boar Crest helmet
• 1x Accessory with “-1 set requirement”

Transfer Equipment

• 1~5 Glove with a Transfer Option “35% Bare-Handed Attack Damage” (on Max Familiarity)

Rolar

• Constituição 150
• Magia 150
• Anti Yokai
• Anti Human
• Flair
• Way of Ruthless ( If you want to play safely, Ravenous )

Good to have

• Melee Damage Vs Zero Ki
• Melee Damage Vs ( Purified / Corrupted / Any element )
• Melee Ki Damage
• Sloth on Onmyo Hit ( Accessary )

Estatísticas

• Constituição 150
• Magia 150
• Vigor 50
• Heart/Strength/Dexterity for your preference (no meu caso, I use the Fist weapon)
• Habilidade 100+

Habilidades

• Samurai – Hand of the Death `~3 , Fatal Fist ( até 100 provavelmente )
• Onmyo – Talisman of the Fist

Notas:

• Bare-Handed Attack Damage” option and “Melee or Active skill Damage” can’t co-exist on the same equipment.
• You can apply Bare-Handed Attack Damage Up to 735%+ with 7x Tajikarao’s Grace and 5x Armor piece and Samurai skills

O que fazer

1. Fist on your main weapon slot/bare-handed on your secondary weapon slot.
2. Cast the Talisman of the Fist, then debuff your target.
3. Block and Dodge with your main weapon until you find the right attacking moment.
4. On your target’s recovery or vulnerable moment, swap to the Bare-hand and attack your target.
5. Switch back to Fist for a better block and dodge property. Sloth on Onmyo magic is a good option with lightning debuff.

You must cast Talisman of the Fist. Without this, your bare-handed attack will nearly apply no damage to your target.

Pontas

• Kick has faster motion than the fully charged Iai quickdraw, but it has a higher DPS than it.
• If you stop the punch attack before the next combo, you can persistently attack your high DPS jab on your target.
• I don’t often use the one-two punch. I rather use the kick instead of it. Choose wisely your type of attack. If the enemy’s recovery is short, just punch it a single time. Se você não tem certeza, just perform a single punch until you find the right moment to kick it.
• Not like another High DPS weapon, you can stop your attack immediately and dodge it anytime you want. Trying to find a proper moment that you can kick your enemy.
• Counterattack time is not the same as “Timely Guard” it’s almost exactly right before your enemy’s hitbox touches your hand.
• Ultimate Skill with Mid-Stance may allow you to guard safely with “Ki Pulse: Homem”. It’s optional but not that practical to spend 150 stat points.
• Habilidade / Strength stat increases bare-hand base attack.

With a bare-handed attack, you can push your limit much harder. It’s another type of high-risk high return like critical build. Também, you can mix with the critical build if you would like to die often. I’d recommend being more realistic. You’re already bare-handed. Boa sorte!
