So, you have already activated Nioh 3 for free, and now you need to defeat this enemy. First, find the Revenant Grave. After defeating the phantom, clusters of rage will appear in the air, and your compass will show the direction you need to follow.
To locate the lair:
- Follow the compass indicator and loot the fresh graves that appear along your path.
- When the arrow turns back, return to the middle of the path (this is similar to a task in ARC Raiders about the counter).
- You will discover an area filled with numerous gravestones.
In the center, you will find a purple grave marked with a note about a concentration of rage.
A Blood Demon will appear — a fairly hardcore enemy for new or under-leveled players. He wields water and lightning katanas that apply dangerous status effects. The best tactic is to fight at mid-range, allowing you to better control the flow of battle.
The enemy’s special attack is extremely dangerous. To recognize it, watch the boss carefully — he leans backward before striking. After this animation, he performs a direct attack that can instantly kill the player. Be cautious with your dodges.
Main tips for fighting the Blood Demon:
- Using the Samurai style is the best choice, as it allows reliable blocking and counterattacking.
- Actively parry attacks — the demon’s weakness is that blocking his strikes consumes little stamina.
- Fire shurikens or spikes are optimal weapons, as they allow you to deal damage from a safe distance.
After victory, you will receive rare armor and a Soul Core item.
