This section of NiOh game guide includes the thorough walkthrough description of The Samurai from Sawayama main quest, which involves finding and destroying several containers. This mission ends in a boss battle with Obsidian Samurai.
Individual issues have been described in separate sections.
The first container
Destroy Nurikabe
This mission starts by a shrine. As you follow the corridor, watch out for a yoki, who will appear from behind the corner and then, for the pressure plate that activates a trap. As you climb up the stairs on the right, defeat yoki and then, destroy Nurikabe, which will grant you access to a room, where there isa Kodama and a shortcut.
walk into the next room. For now, do not enter the room, where there is Amrita Devil. Instead, go right along the corridor. Make sure that your health bar is fyll. Behind the logs on the right, there is a trapdoor, thanks to which you will drop into the basement. Here, you will find several items and a Kodama. The opponents here are skeletons and spiders. While approaching the stairs, watch out for the skeleton with cannon. Upstairs, you will also fight devils and flamming wheel .
After you return to the main level, defeat Amrita Devils and Destroy the container in the center of the room. After the fight, go straight ahead, along the corridor. On your right, you will notice chests. If you destroy them, you will be able to access the next corridor. Watch out for the pressure plate. A yoki will appear out of the fog. After you defeat it, activate the shrine and remove the log from the door. While approaching the fog, you could notice the stairs up. However, apaort from the two locals and a corpse, there is nothing of interest there.
The second and the third container
Climb down the stairs near the most recent shrine. There is another room with a container there, guarded by an Amrita Devil. First, defeat locals not to be disturbed during the fight. Use your ranged weapon to deal with the one at the end of the corridor. NOTE: In front of this opponent, there is a trapdoor. Do not use it just yet. After you have defeated the devil and destroyed the container, cross the door. In the corridor, there is another devil. After killing it, go left, towards the stairs. Defeat the opponents, collect the items and unlock the shortcut in the undergrounds.
As you go in the opposite direction, you will get into the undergrounds. At the foot of the stairs, there are a skeleton and an Amrita Devil waiting for you. After you have defeated them, go right and behind the corner, you will find a Kodama. As you move on, you will run into four paths. The rightmost one leads to the room, where you can find a Kodama under the table and a shortcut. The next one leads to Kappa. After you defeat it, you will obtain several interesting items. After that, go into the leftmost path, where you find a hot spring. As you follow the last path, watch out for the flaming wheel, which appears around the corner.
After you have defeated the wheel, move on. Along your path, watch out for a pressure plate. In the cave on the left, there is a fog. Before you approach, deal with the skeleton above, to the right. After you have defeated Onyudo, who comes out of the fog, collect the Prison Warden's Key. Thanks to it, you can now open all the doors that used to be locked, e.g. to the room in the undergrounds with the two devils and a Kodama.
After you have searched the entire location, return where you have fought onyudo. Cross all the rooms to collect loot and climb up the stairs. Watch out, because a stone ball will roll from above. To avoid it, enter the recess in the wall. Climb to the very top to collect all the loot and cross the door by the stairs. Behind the door, there is another container guarded by an Amrita Devil and oni-bi. After you have destroyed the container, take one of the two doors into the next room.
The last containers
A big spider will come out from the fog. After you have defeated it, go into the next room, where you have to destroy another container. It is best to deal the guarding devil with a shot from a distance, because in the next corridor, there also is a flaming wheel. After you have cleared the area, send away the Kodama behind the sacks.
In the room behind the grate, there are three containers to destroy and a one-eye to defeat. After you have cleared the room, you can activate another shrine. In the next room, you will have to fight two locals and a yoki, that is still in the fog . After you defeat them, move on, where you can open a shortcut to the last shrine. After you climb down the stairs, you will find the final boss Obsidian Samurai.
