With the release of Nioh 2 coming and the Nioh 2 Last Chance Trial hitting this weekend, this was the perfect time to revisit the original Nioh and do a Nioh boss ranking. I have to say, despite my previous experience, this time I enjoyed myself far more than before. Nioh has excellent combat, solid level design, interesting RPG mechanics, diverse weapons, and a roster of bosses that varies greatly in terms of both quality and difficulty.
Bosses at their finest are excellent like Maria, Yuki-Onna, Date Masamune, Oda Nobunaga, Tachibana Muneshige, Onyroki, Hino-Enmna, and a lot more. Not Nue though. Never Nue. They aren't all great, but I enjoyed fighting the majority nonetheless. I'll sprinkly in thoughts about the best and worst Nioh bosses, but today I'll be ranking the easiest and hardest bosses in Nioh. I hope you enjoy, and if you do, be sure to subscribe for more boss rankings and video essays on the horizon!

I started nioh once about the time the complete edition. Was on sale. I managed to get tot he first boss and got stuck and rage quit. After seeing nioh 2 was coming I decided to come back and give the game another try and started over. After I restarted and re learned the mechanics, I killed the boss after maybe 3 tries and realized I got stuck because I wasnt being smart lol. Even though sekiro was a diff game, I think that game taught me things about these types of games and I went on to beat the whole game, with only 2 bosses I called for help (once to see wtf the ochiko cup did cuz I dodnt know) and the water boss...cuz fuck that lol. I cant wait for nioh 2 now. I did get help for the last dlc boss cuz I was way under leveled, but still ana amazing experience. I also grinded to get the 100k skin :3

Nioh is really amazing tbh. It's nothing like Dark Souls overall. It probably has the sharpest learning curves of all "souls like" games. Because of all the mechanics you need to master.

One of the things I really learned to appreciate in my repeated runs in nioh was the yokai water pot. For human bosses using living weapon, you can completely drain their ki with 1-4 throws and get a free grapple on them and do spearfall loops to keep them down. That paired with my use of the red demon set made quite a few of the human bosses a joke without sloth, especially some of the harder ones like date masamune. The only human boss I couldn't use this strategy against is maria

Nioh gets much more enjoyable if you're good at Japanese history - this way most of the bosses' names ain't just some difficult to pronounce shit but do have a lot of meaning instead. Especially if we're talking about Oda Nobunaga - when I finally got to him, facing such a monumental historical figure and warrior gave me real chills! And Ishida Mitsunari, Tokugawa Ieyasu's main opponent, is much more than just a weakling. Also, when the monk Tenkai reveals that he's actually Akechi Mitsuhide, it's really surprising - if you know who Mitsuhide is and what was his real story. P.S. Btw, it's YoshiTSUGU, not Yoshigitsu :)

Or some players just never figure out how to properly use their stances to dodge against certain bosses.

I agree. This game is fun when you're on par/properly geared, but feels frustrating when bosses are one/two shotting you and you're barely scratching them. That's what my first playthrough was like. Taking the time to get geared makes a world of difference. It wasn't too bad either. I just hopped in side missions and farmed revenants for 30 minutes every 4-5 main missions to make sure I was keeping up. Can be annoying for those looking to avoid the grind though. All this said, I do think skill plays a role, but it is very dependent on gear as you mentioned.

Nah its harder for sure. All you need in souls is to semi-correctly time circle and then press R1. In Nioh there's so many mechanics at play that you've to really put in effort. Until you've endgame gear with cheese builds or lots of spirit stones that is.

Really glad you came back around to this gem. I love the combat mechanics even if some of the systems break the game entirely. Its totally true that if you don't take the time to realize the importance of your tools and play it like a souls game you are likely to have a bad time. Even if you're underleveled taking full advantage of your tools really plays a big difference. Sloth and the defence reducing spells are pretty OP. I will say endgame (like NG+ 7) they start becoming more resistant to them if you cared to challenge yourself further but can definitely trivialize pretty much all the base game. Also living weapon builds are pretty nutty esp with Kusuragama. Super high DPS.

I'm glad as well! I would've missed out on a great game had I not. Great points all around - totally agree. I did make my way into NG+2 and noticed the duration of magic effects was shorter. Bosses seemed faster as well. I'm sure it only gets harder from there. I would go on, but I'm saving myself for Nioh 2.

@@theDeModcracy Really Excited for Nioh 2. The new weapons and mechanics were really enjoyable to mess with. Loved the Demo a ton. They did tone down some of the magic and ninjutsu options that kinda broke Nioh 1 but added a nice collection of new stuff to supplement. Once you learn the new additions you can really plow through enemies. Lots of variety for many playstyles.

All of the weapons are satisfying and once you get immersed in the mechanics, building your character is a blast. Can't wait for the sequel. I already binged through the last chance trial overnight

It really is crazy how much of difference the build you use in this game makes. Nearly every boss you found to be trivial were some of the hardest fights for me. Yuki Onna, Saika Magoichi, Ishida Mitsunari and Date Shigezane all absolutely destroyed me. I mainly used a sword in my first playthrough and I put barely any points into magic and my guardian spirit. I'm really interested in seeing which bosses gave you the most trouble now lol.

Onryoki was probably the first boss I managed to style on, and it wasn't even in the original fight but when he returns in the side mission where you fight three groups of yokai. I got ganked multiple times then suddenly I unlocked ultra instinct and he suddenly could no longer hit me as I turned him into ground beef. The great centipede was probably the first boss I took out on first try which was just multiple drop attacks and then when he separated living weapon flowing to take each and every one down. The white tiger was actually easier than I was expecting but that's probably due to the Nue that was like five feet away that served as practice as he really felt like a higher level nue since they shared very similar attacks. Though could also be that Nue was the bane of my existence and only boss that took me into the twenties to beat and served as my first major wall, and when I just looked up his weakness, packed myself full of water weapons and erased him, the second was goo but that's because I kept falling off the battle field.....that was embarrassing

I'm so glad you went back to Nioh man. It's definitely a big adjustment coming from the Soulsborne games but it's an amazing game in its own right with a super complex and satisfying combat system. I was really disappointed that you weren't feeling it back in 2017 but it's cool that you revisited it and enjoyed it. But I have to say, Ishida Mitsunari at number 33 is absurd. He's a top 5 hardest boss IMO, and I consider myself pretty good at this game. You weren't even over leveled or anything, I think you just got a little lucky with the attack pattern because he has the potential to be an absolute nightmare. Or maybe the kusarigama just totally melts him. I was using an odachi which does big damage but is very slow and can't stun lock enemies the way the kusi can.
