    Stellar Blade

    Sekiro veteran here, i just downloaded stellar blade, loving the combat and ladders so far.



    I started game at hard mode (because why not). and boss fight feels more like a endurance boss fight. I keep running out of heals… is there any way to deal better damage? or am i missing on some upgrades? My damage feels too low at this point. i really like its combat and gameplay (even tho it doesnt itch the itch). Any tips or suggestions would be appreciated.

      Hard mode is balanced around new game plus. Start on normal mode and you won’t have this problem

      Thing about hard mode is it isn’t supossed to be played until NG+. It scales really terribly in NG almost being ridiculously hard for no reason. It was locked behind NG+ originally and was basically a way to not make the game go into “Story mode”. As a guy that has 1000 hours in Sekiro and ER and a bunch more in other souls games. Play in normal mode in NG. Otherwise it becomes borderline comedic

      Actually hard mode was balanced for ng+.
      But that being said. It is doable. Although the earlier bosses will feel like an endurance test since you basically lack a lot of skills which bump up your damage.
      If the game feels not fun, and too tedious at this stage, id recommend turning down difficulty to normal and then maybe increasing it back up when you hit the first open area. Since you’ll be able to get much stronger by then.
