  • My top priority in the "Numbers" series is presenting the most accurate data possible. Conducting enough analysis and research to prepare a demonstration like this takes quite a bit of time, but the numbers alone are not enough. I have always had an eye for presentation and I certainly exercised it when creating the render for the thumbnail and the graphics that bookend the showcase itself. With all that said, I hope you enjoy.

    Absolutely fantastic work, the presentation is top notch. Super helpful and very impressive level of documentation! The Ninja Gaiden community is very lucky to have someone as talented and dedicated as you.
    One question though, are the damage numbers accurate to ‘04 and/or Sigma?

    • @GuiltyGaming
      @GuiltyGaming  11 місяців тому +2

      Those comparisons will come after I finish Black’s initial run. Originally, I wanted to go through all of Black’s difficulties because of the different enemies, but I’ll probably cut in a couple episodes on Sigma and 04 before continuing.

      I hear ya. I pull it off several times in my second armlets video, but for this-after going into the code to render the enemies docile-I could barely do it the one time.

    One of my favorite weapons, and actually quite underrated. And I tend to upgrade it immediately to even slay Ghuls at Chapter 6 and do most of the fiend challenges which involve them and any of the smaller enemies. Sometimes I feel for crowd control it is far better than the Dragon Sword, purely because of the Gathering Clouds UT.

      I think I point that out in my recent Very Hard run of that chapter, that most new players probably play with the Level *1* Flails and don’t know you can backtrack all the way to the exterior of the Monastery to upgrade them right away. But I’m right there with you-I don’t think I’ve played with the Level 1s in like 15 years.

    • @GuiltyGaming
      @GuiltyGaming  11 місяців тому +2

      Thank you for the compliments. Considering my intent is to showcase a weapon around or after the point in the "Numbers" play-through where I max it out, I'm thinking Dragon Sword is next, followed by Lunar and War Hammer.

      @@GuiltyGaming Are you aware that in NGB (Black specifically), awakened Alma seems to have an extreme damage vulnerability to the warhammer for some reason? It does way more damage than it really should against her. Royta15 has brought this up a couple of times. Not sure why it happens, but it may be a good thing to examine.
      For whatever reason, youtube refuses to let me leave a comment linking you to the thread, but if you search up "Is there ANY good reason to use the Numchucku and Warhammer over the Vigoorian Flails and Dabilahro (Black/Sigma) ?", then you will find it. There's evidence in the comments, plus videos.

    Rip & Tear, theres no other words that can describe better the Vigoorian Flails, i knew this weapon was OP, but 640 at lvl1 and 960 at lvl2 in the last blow of gathering clouds, the devs where insane they have gone way too far with the damage output, making this weapon in to a must have/hard carry for chapters 6 & 7 including their test's of valor, hell recently i used it for the Red (BSC) Ninjas, Black Bast fiend, valor test on MN, i was less than 20000 of essence when i started it and got out with 99999, now i'm one upgrade away from the unlabored flawless and all i need to do is go for the 120 ghouls test to be at 99999 of essence again, all my weapons are at max lvl they can reach for the time being, and im ready for the rest Chapter 7 and alma as well, Guilty you are the man you've reached such quality in your videos that i can't do less than leaving my gratitude in the comment section, solid content, excellent renders, deep understanding of the math/coding of the game, impressive mods, interviews with the NG cast, gameplays, and cut content from the game, bro if some people from the NG community deserve credit for their contributions you're definitely one of them, i hope someday when NG4 comes out this channel blow with subs and views, i'm a simple man, you post a video and my day gets better, Blessings 🦅🍃.

      That’s one helluva comment, man. Thank you for all that. Honestly, the flails are even “worse” than you think. I gotta write and record the introduction, but once I do, the next “Numbers” video will be up and you will be floored.

    since you gave a translation for the Japanese attack names, would you also do a video of the game's Japanese cutscenes with the translation too? I mean, the English and Japanese cutscene dialogues are considerably different

      It’s a tricky one-you have to time the Y press *just* right, actually during the hits from the X press. If you wait and press Y *after* those 3 hits from the X button already connect, you’ll just launch the enemy into Blazing Heaven. JTB has a tutorial on it--maybe you'll find it helpful: ua-cam.com/video/n1IGyT3W7kE/v-deo.htmlsi=e-JhuyfSiWWTWNkw&t=563
