Congrats!

Reached the home stretch, I believe. I feel like there's another jump in difficulty, however I looted a katana in the crucible which has a damn good heavy attack (LS towards you + triangle). It deflects the enemy attack and does a lot of AOE damage (dead enemies lose all limbs like in some anime ).

When I'm finished, I'll try Wuchang Fallen Feathers or Wukong.

Made it to the 3rd map. Last 2 bosses in the ice area I found to be quite a bit easier than the lightening lady boss.

I think now is a good spot to clean up some map stuff. Collecting some good material essence, but leary about spending them now since I know I'm going to churn a lot of gear through NG+.

Finally made it to Baba. What a competency check this fight is. the fake outs really throw you off.

Clearing out the maps before move through the 3rd map, and embarrassed it took me so long to figure out that the courses that show up on the map are the ones that have significant loot like locks or texts. I was paranoid I would miss something and scoured every area for items to make sure I didn't miss anything good and couldn't figure out why not every course didn't show on the map.

Also took out a Bloodedge demon in the first area. Even at a higher level, that thing was still a bastard. The one on the second map still smokes me.

Mm, eleventh hour 'Ah, that's what that does'. I can't tell you how many times over tens or hundreds of hours in late-game I overlook this one UI microcopy that if I hold this button, something something happens that makes inventory management, camera, game anything better, grrr.

It also took me longer than I care to admit to figure out you can add to a of filtering criteria to your blacksmith/equip screens to quickly fish out specific gear. Nothing like looking through 100 accessories to find the one with wind resistance.

Played hookie from work yesterday and some huge progress.

Made it to the the 4th, and I think final map. The boss for the 3rd region gave me fits, which led to the intro sequence to replay and Tokugawa Kunimatsu at full level. Hot damn, was he a bastard. Must have played him 30 times before I finally beat him.

After beating him and unlocking the 4th map, you can finally access the Veteran scrolls and all but one of the guardians for spirit veins. Veteran for Samurai unlocked Sword of Salvation which extends deflect window. Also have the skill Deflection Expert which also extends the window. No idea if it stacks, but hoping it does. Need to test around with it.

Cleaning up more of the map now that I can access the spirit veins and cleaning up the masters.
