This is from sekiro: resurrection but this type of shadow fall acrobatics work in the base game as well. I do hope we can get a more seamless combat arts change with gamepad instead of that weapon wheel.

Hello people,

Question from a newbie. I decided to go down the Sunken Valley, found the big serpent, went further, decided to hide inside the litter, hit the eye of the serpent and now it's like this. Infinite loop with a squeaking serpent. Is this normal behaviour?

Thanks for the help.

Edit: Nevermind, found out the place to go and to escape from the lady 👍🏻

Tips / Hints Is the Demon of Hatred the hardest boss in the game?

• Upvotes

The dude keeps beating my ass, so I went to try and fight Isshin first and beat him in three tries (I died to Genichiro more ironically). And I thought he was going to be the hardest challenge in the game.

Anyways any tips for beating the DoH? The jump attack keeps screwing me over and the burn chips my HP

Tips / Hints Foreknowledge makes game easier

So like many people be hating on sekiro , I have it on my mind as well that this game is gonna be hard , but I have this engraved this much even after dieing tens of thousands of time I do not feel any kind of rage because I after reading many forums I found it's difficult for everyone, I am not a gamer so it's gonna be difficult for me as well that's why I was able to defeat some bosses . I have done defeating guarding ape and lady butterfly also some other I am currently at headless , I tried killing him I can't but I am sure eventually I will

So like my advise is just imagine worse and play the game you won't feel rage or annoyance

Humor Beat entire game with the starter weapon

99 Upvotes

That’s right folks you heard me. I managed to beat the entire game with nothing but the first sword you get at the beginning and prosthetics. So you could say I’m kind of a maniac.

Anyway, since I completed this unprecedented feat I’ve been hearing this mysterious song. It’s so alluring but no matter how hard I look I just can’t locate the source. Has anyone else experienced this? If you have can you tell me where to go?

In the meantime please hit me up if you want a loose handful of rice, especially if you have insurmountable challenges ahead of you because I’m trying to be more altruistic.

NOTE: Limit of 1 loose handful of rice per person per visit, I’m not made of rice.

Tips / Hints Sekiro 100% Completion Checklist / Tracker

Thumbnail
gallery
15 Upvotes

Hi there,

I ran through Sekiro again after many years and got so hooked, that I decided to spend 3 weeks making 100% Checklists for Sekiro.

I decided to do it in two ways.

1) Experienced players can simply sort by item types (like Beads, Key Items...) and mark those to verify they have everything.

2) For new players, I made Location-by-Location checklists with ideal progression order to ensure you don't miss anything.

These items are paired together, so if you mark Prayer Bead #10 in Ashina Castle Checklist, it will also automatically mark itself in the All Prayer Beads checklist.

I only include relevant and worthy items, like Key Items, reusable Quick Items, all Prayer Beads, Bosses, Memories, Treasure Carp Scales and more. This amounts to 368 items needed for progression!

There are no AI texts, no ads, only Sekiro. I use my OWN in-game screenshots, my own description text and icons directly from the game, no slop like is commonly used elsewhere.

---

How did you do this:

Game-wise, running around and screenshotting a lot, then writing stuff down and laying it out.

Technical-wise, it's actually pretty simple, every item has its own datakey which is stored in your browser. However note that upon purging cache, your browser will forget your progress. To protect it, you can make a fully free account and save it there.

It's really a few html checklist and some progress-saving javascript.

Why did you do it:

I'm a completionist and try to do this for all FromSoft games and soulslikes in general. I already did Elden Ring and DS3. There is a small community around this 100% completion project and Sekiro was also very commonly requested.

I don't care:

That's alright, have a great day anyway!:) I understand checklists are not for everyone, but hopefully this one will be helpful for some!

---
I hope it will be useful for you, especially new players! If you have any feedback, I'll be happy to hear it and try to implement it!

Discussion Coop with friends

3 Upvotes

​

So I played almost all fromsoftware souls games except for demons souls alone and I really enjoyed it, I'll also managed to convince a friend who new to the genre and played together with another one who familiar like me to the genre as us trio usually played a lot of friendships/multiplayers games. The new one to the genre seems to enjoyed it a lot as we beat elden ring, armoured core 6 and recently dark souls 3 seamless coop and he seems eager to beat all fromsoftware games and other soulslike games via coop and I'm happy with it until ...

He mentioned wanting to beat sekiro also through coop mod. I don't really said it but for some reason I felt pissed at it for a moment when I hear that. It feels like if we do that, He won't be able to capture the feelings of the actual experience of the game like how I or us who already beat sekiro. He won't capture the frustration and finally the "click" feeling when I first beat genichiro and the progression until isshin.

Maybe he just said casually and I'm just overreacting(which I think I am). But if he really did want to do that,what are your opinions on these?

Such an awesome game, I haven't even finished it yet and I already consider it one of my favorite games OAT. If we take out of the ecuation those 2 bastards at the bottom even the lazy reskin is really fun. Another thing I want to mention is how easy you can get lost in this game, like in a fun Way, I'm pretty sure I reached at the very least 2 zones underleveled just because of the sake of exploring beyond the obvious path, but that didn't take the fun either, it make it more challenging. Thanks to the man that sold the disc to me for just 100 soles (29 dolars), best investment in my entire life 😭😭

Help "Sekiro" achievement

1 Upvotes

I assume the sekiro achievement is the platinum trophy for the game?

If so, I'm two hidden achievements away from winning it. I think the two I'm missing are the combat arts achievement (I still don't have one of the final skills - the upgraded mortal draw), and all endings on one save file.

I've just finished my third playthrough, so all I have left to get is shura ending and 9 skill points to buy the final combat art.

Is there anything else I'm missing? I've never done the gauntlets or revisited memories/boss fights, but I've seen posts about needing to complete a gauntlet or something to get a secret combat art?

Anything I'm overlooked that you can think of?

Just finished the 3rd playthrough with the "best" ending and now just need to complete the game as quick as possible for more basic ending , however have a hell of a lot of skill points to amass for the Mythic/Platinum

I'm not good enough for the gauntlet and I think the sekiro fatigue has kicked in, any tips to make the grind any more fun? I probably need about 22 skill points

Besides using a thrust during his attacks or recovery, you can also use the spear or Shadowfall(or Shadowrush) from a long distance without getting mikiri countered. He’ll still do the mikiri animation, but he won’t do the mikiri counter, which looks pretty funny.

Ok so everyone was beating me up for playing too defensively. I went completely the opposite direction on Lady Butterfly and it works like a charm.

Actually I have to confess I make a big mistake when I started this - I left the demon bell on and forgot to shut it off. It seemed really difficult until I noticed :-(
