    Begin the Sekigahara mission, set in September 1600.
  5. 5
    PROLOGUE: William is informed that the upcoming battle is not his, and the speaker cannot ask him to join due to the unknown survival odds. Okatsu also wished to join but could not due to injuries.

    Objective: Follow Kelley's movements through the battlefield.
  8. 8
    Head forward and use the SHRINE. Note the ladder, likely a future shortcut.

    Note a path to the right leading to a locked gate.
  11. 11
    Drop down and continue past the gate to fight a Soldier.
  12. 12
    Continue on and note a path to the left (to be explored later). Go straight, kill a Samurai, and loot a [_CORPSE_].
  13. 13
    Return to the path and take the left path to find a Samurai and a soldier (one with a gun). Kill them.
  14. 14
    Take the RIGHT path (before the soldiers) to find another [_CORPSE_].
  15. 15
    Head further back to find another [_CORPSE_].
  16. 16
    Continue on, fighting a soldier behind a corpse pile, and guide the [_ORACLE KODAMA_] home.
  17. 17
    Return to where the two soldiers were killed and loot the [_CORPSE_] if missed.
  18. 18
    Cross a bridge to fight a Samurai. Head left after the fight.

    Return to the path split and go right.
  21. 21
    Encounter allied soldiers with a [_CORPSE_] behind them. Go past the corpse to find barricades.
  22. 22
    The right path is a dead end. The left path leads to a gate you can open. Further left (not through the gate) is a [_CORPSE_].
  23. 23
    Return to the opening of the encampment and enter to face a boss.

Boss Encounter: Otani Yoshitsugu

Otani Yoshitsugu is a mid-boss with a limited but deadly attack pool. His primary attack involves hovering and attacking with his swords, chaining up to three times with sword swings or kicks. He can initiate with a kick.

Tips
  • When facing Saika, try to move past the crow to attack Saika directly, avoiding wind damage and dealing more damage.
  • Be aware that many of the unlocked Dojo missions require a certain proficiency with specific weapon types to be undertaken.
  • SPIRIT OBTAINED: "Possessed by Suzaku via spirit division."
  • Unlocked Missions: Dojo Missions "Zen and Sword are One," "The Grimmest Blades," "Steel Across Steel," "The Invincible," "A Clash of Sickles," and Sub-Mission "The Silent Crow."
