Onimusha Way of the Sword All Equipment Enhancements

For the Dressed to Kill trophy & achievement in Onimusha Way of the Sword, you need to enhance all equipment to the maximum level.

Equipment gets enhanced at the Spirit Mirror, automatically unlocked during the mission “The Oni’s Apprentice”. Once in the menu select the “Equipment Enhancement” tab where you can highlight which item you want to enhance.

You can still free-roam and find all collectibles up until the Point of No Return before the final mission “The Clash At Rendaino” or after when it brings you back to that start of that mission. If you keep a manual save from this point, then you can still clean up everything from there.
