Sugars (Ungo's, Ako's, Gachiin's, Gokan's)

This guide section for Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice explains the different types of Sugars like Ungo's, Ako's, Gachiin's, and Gokan's. Learn how to use them effectively.

Hey there! So, you've stumbled upon the 'Sugars' in Sekiro, huh? These are pretty neat consumable items that give you temporary buffs. Think of them as little boosts to help you out in a pinch. You'll find four main types: Ungo's, Ako's, Gachiin's, and Gokan's. Each one does something a little different, and knowing when to pop them can make a big difference, especially against tougher enemies or bosses.

Let's break down what each one does so you know exactly what you're getting:

• Ungo's Sugar: This one is all about defense. When you use it, your Vitality and Posture damage taken are significantly reduced. It's great for when you know you're going to be taking a lot of hits or facing an enemy with devastating attacks.
• Ako's Sugar: This is your offensive boost. It increases your Attack Power, meaning your hits will deal more damage. If you're trying to end a fight quickly or just want to get through a tough enemy encounter faster, this is the sugar for you.
• Gachiin's Sugar: This one messes with enemy awareness. Using Gachiin's Sugar makes you harder to detect, reducing the aggro range of enemies. It's super useful for stealthy approaches or when you want to sneak past enemies without a fight.
• Gokan's Sugar: This sugar is focused on your defense against posture damage. It significantly reduces the amount of Posture damage you take. If you're finding yourself getting your posture broken too easily, Gokan's Sugar can be a lifesaver.
