As players progress, they unlock:

• Stronger weapons and armor

Beginner Walkthrough Guide

Step 1: Learn the Timing System

Combat is based on timing, not speed.

Focus on:

• Watching enemy attack animations
• Blocking at the right moment
• Counterattacking after enemy recovery

👉 Do not spam attacks.

Step 2: Control Distance

Distance is critical in Samurai fights:

• Stay just outside enemy range
• Move in after they miss
• Retreat immediately after attacking

Step 3: Use Block + Counter Strategy

Best beginner strategy:

1. Block enemy attack
2. Wait for stamina drop
3. Counter with 1–2 controlled strikes

Step 4: Avoid Being Surrounded

In group fights:

• Keep enemies in front
• Rotate constantly
• Never stand still in corners

Advanced Combat Strategy

1. Fight One Enemy at a Time

Even in group battles:

• Isolate targets
• Eliminate quickly
• Reduce pressure step-by-step

2. Read Enemy Patterns

Enemies typically:

• Attack in predictable combos
• Pause after missed swings
• Attempt flanking in groups

Use this to counter efficiently.

3. Don’t Waste Stamina

Stamina management is key:

• Avoid long attack chains
• Block when unsure
• Save energy for counters

4. Use Positioning as Defense

Movement is as important as blocking:

• Circle enemies
• Keep open space behind you
• Avoid tight areas
