Master the Oda Nobunaga boss fight in Nioh Remastered with this comprehensive guide. Learn his moves, elemental enhancements, and effective strategies to defeat him.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Oda Nobunaga's Sword Combos:
    1. Overhead Attack: A strong, charged attack, easy to spot and dodge to the side.
  2. 2
    Normal Combo: An up to five-hit rapid sword flurry. Dodge backward to get out of range.
  3. 3
    Straight Sword-Thrust: Used at range, covers significant ground. Can be performed twice consecutively.
  4. 4
    Quadrisect: A special move only usable during Living Weapons.
All his standard combo attacks are short-range; dodging backward is generally effective.
  • Elemental Enhancements: Oda can enhance his sword with various elements, each with unique effects and attacks.
    1. Fire Enhanced: Infuses his sword with fire, potentially inflicting the Fire status (damage over time). He can perform a supernatural jumping attack, falling with his sword for an area-of-effect attack. Warp away when he jumps high.
    2. Lightning Enhanced: Infuses his sword with lightning, potentially slowing movement. He can call down lightning strikes similar to Nue, but six in a row. Keep moving to stay safe.
    3. Ice Enhanced: Infuses his sword with ice, potentially reducing defense. He can perform the "Icicle Spear" attack, shooting six icicles one by one. Stay mobile and roll to avoid them.
    4. Earth Enhanced: Infuses his sword with earth, doubling Ki consumption for actions. He can also create "Earth Mines" that deal low earth damage and apply the Earth status effect when stepped on.
    5. Wind Enhanced: Infuses his sword with wind, potentially lowering attack. He can perform the "Wind Slash" move, creating blades of wind directly in front and diagonally. These cannot be blocked; roll to the sides.
  • Edward Kelley Encounter (Part of the same mission):
    1. Kelley warps around frequently, often attempting a "Dark Shard Lunge" from behind. Roll away from your back when he warps. His warping can be semi-predicted to punish him.
    2. He has "get away from me" moves: "Ouroboros Flame" and "Ouroboros Wind."
    3. He uses a blocking move where Ouroboros' scales appear to block damage when attacked.
    • Tips
    • For Oda's sword combos, dodging backward is generally safe due to their short range.
    • When Oda uses his jumping Fire Enhanced attack, get away from him when he jumps.
    • For Lightning Enhanced strikes, constant movement is key.
    • For Ice Enhanced "Icicle Spear," stay mobile and roll.
    • For Earth Enhanced "Earth Mines," avoid the purple areas on the ground.
    • For Wind Enhanced "Wind Slash," rolling to the sides is necessary as they cannot be blocked.
    • For Edward Kelley, anticipate his warp-behind attacks and dodge accordingly.
