No Weapons were Remodeled nor Tempered with Attack Bonus Passives. Only Exception is Splitstaff with Damage Bonus (Equipment Lightness): A. No Samurai/Shiftling Skill Passives were used besides Masterful Slice and Arcana of Water. None of the other ones were used (Damage Boosting ones or otherwise). 7 Piece Ame-no-Uzume was used for the 11 Mystic Art Dojo Bosses and Ancient Nyotengu (7 Piece Ame, 5 Piece Marici, 2 Piece Susano). All 108 Floors of the Underworld were completed before the run. I wanted to get the set bonuses for the build used in the video, which is why I did them. I could've done the same 2-3 floors but that would've been very boring, so I decided to finish all floors. For anyone curious, I did about 60 floors using Benzaiten's grace with the Red Kodama buff, then swapped to Death Dancer (Ame-no-Uzume) and I believe 3 Piece Tsukuyomi the rest of the way. A Few Notes: Obsidian Samurai did not start off with his Curse because the duration the Curse is nullified carries over to the next attempt at the Boss (so after you die for instance and reset the fight). This was something I noticed a couple days after recording the fight. I decided not to re-record this for 2 reasons: The first is his Curse would've been auto-nullified anyways since the first action he took was a Burst Attack. The second is I like to record these in order while progressing through the playthrough so going back wasn't really an option at the point I realized. I was a little hesitant at the start of Honda's fight since the thing mentioned above also applies to the Hyper Armor he gives himself. The remaining duration carries over to the next attempt, even if the visual effect isn't visible, so I had to try and use moves that wouldn't bounce on him and wait out the duration a little. This was my first time using Shuriken Cancels, I improve a lot later on.
