Onimusha Warlords Trophy Guide & Roadmap

Barabazuu is located in the West Area and can be fought using Samanosuke. This is not a mandatory fight so be sure not to miss it. When you get to the part in West Area with Samanosuke where you use a level 3 Kouen to open a door opposite the Magic Mirror you are ready to obtain this Fluorite. Head through that door and you will see a treasure chest on the floor that contains medicine. Right next to that chest tied to the fence with rope is a shielded cart. Proceeding to the next room is where the fight will occur so make sure you are ready. Barabazuu is a giant ax-wielding ogre accompanied by 3 smaller ax-wielding ogres. The key in this fight is to keep moving and block any attacks that are aimed left to right. The attacks going straight up and down are actually unblockable and will stagger you leaving you open for everyone to hit you. Your best friend in this fight will be your magic. Take out the smaller ogres before attempting to focus on Barabazuu. Once the smaller ogres are defeated simply keep skirting around Barabazuu and don’t get too greedy with attacks. Once defeated you will obtain the trophy.

Once he gets rid of his shield its time for the final phase of the encounter with him. He will replace his shield with another sword and become much more aggressive here. For this portion of the fight you are going to want to be selective with how many swings you take at Marcellus. Don’t get greedy and when Marcellus backs up far away he will wait a moment and lunge forward with a slice. If you guard at the moment of impact you will parry him and if you attack right away you will Critical Strike him. His health will take longer to whittle away in this portion of the fight since there is no way to regenerate blue orbs to refill your magic. If you are comfortable parrying him that is the fastest way to take him down but if not rely heavily on your block and attack with Enryuu for heavier damage when you have a window for a few hits. Continue chipping away at his health until he is defeated. Upon his defeat you will receive this trophy.

To block his attacks simply dodge and weave through the lightning magic attacks (these can be spotted where they will be placed before the attack goes off), block his swipe and jabs, hide in the back left or right corner while he is breathing fire, side step using   and a direction to avoid the lasers (be careful he might follow up with more lasers) and if you get grappled continuously tap  to break his grasp and get him to drop you before he breathes fire on you.

To damage Fortinbras you need to attack the eye on top of his head, in order to get him to lower his head however you will have to continue to attack his body. Be weary of his attacks and don’t stay close to him for too long or you run the risk of him grabbing you. Continue to attack him and dodge his attacks until the cutscene plays signifying Fortiinbras is defeated and this trophy is earned.

Once the plates have lined up as such the door to Samanosuke’s chamber will open setting him free and you will obtain this trophy.

You will get this trophy on the way to finishing the Dark Realm. Please refer to the A Survivor to the End trophy for details on obtaining this trophy.

The first time you have access to the Dark Realm is after defeating Doppelganger. For this trophy you are going to need to complete levels 11 – 20 of the Dark Realm. In order to get to the Dark Realm you are going to have to speak to one of the two Moth Men. Once in the Dark Realm you will need to clear floors of enemies to make your way down to the bottom. You will need to be prepared to face a gauntlet but making sure your weapons are maxed out, your health and magic bars are maxed out and you have a bunch of medicine to take with you. Here is a list of each level, what genma appear on the level and what you get as a reward for completing the floor (Some playthroughs show different items on different levels but all the items will show up and Bishamon Ocarina is still on the final floor):

– Floor 1:

• Enemies: 10 Oda Warriors
• Item: Nothing
• Strategy: Not much strategy needed here. Power your way through the 10 enemies to continue on.

– Floor 2:

• Enemies: 7 Three Eyes
• Item: Nothing
• Strategy: This is another one of those levels that you need to just power through. Don’t turn your back on these guys though or waste time going for ground stabs.

– Floor 3:

• Enemies: 5 Oda Warriors and 2 Red Knights
• Item: Nothing
• Strategy: This is one where you want to focus on the smaller guys asap and worry about the samurai’s one on one. Don’t be afraid to use a cast of magic if needed.

– Floor 4:

• Enemies: 4 Red Knights
• Prize: Nothing
• Strategy: Keep your distance from the demons but try not to get surrounded by two.

– Floor 5:

• Enemies: 5 Three Eyes and 2 Red Knights
• Item: Fluorite
• Strategy: Focus on the Blade Demons while keeping an eye on the Samurai Demons. Take out the smaller guys and then take out the bigger guys.

– Floor 6:

• Enemies: 12 Bazuu
• Item: Nothing
• Strategy: Use your heavy sword Enryuu to take out these genma as they spawn but keep an eye out for those spinning on spawn that might try to attack instantly.

– Floor 7:

• Enemies: 8 Hecubites
• Item: Nothing
• Strategy: Hecubites are easy to deal with, simply block their attacks and punish with Enryuu.

– Floor 8:

• Item: Nothing
• Strategy: Focus on the Bazuu and when there are none left switch your focus to the Gyarans in the air.

• Strategy: Dispatch the Barabazuu as soon as you can with magic and take out the Gyarans when you see blue orbs being stolen to recover magic.

– Floor 11:

• Enemies: 5 Reynaldo
• Item: Nothing
• Strategy: Reynaldo suck because they multiply with damage taken. Use Enryuu to keep whittling away at the genma to take them out but watch for the grabs through the floor.

• Item: Fluorite
• Strategy: Same strategy as Floor 11.

– Floor 13:

• Enemies: 4 Reynaldo and 5 Hecubite

– Floor 14:

• Enemies: 3 Mole
• Item: Herb
• Strategy: These guys are a bit annoying. Work your defenses and attack when possible. Don’t get greedy with hits and try to balance when to strike so you don’t get hit by the other Mole.

– Floor 15:

• Enemies: 2 Mole and 5 Reynaldo
• Item: Herb
• Strategy: Destroy the Mole as fast as possible with magic and use the Reynaldo to help refill your magic.

– Floor 16:

• Strategy: This is the final level so use the remainder of your magic focusing more on the barabazuu. Watch for the Moles under ground and keep attacking.

Once all 20 Floors have been cleared you will receive this trophy.

For this trophy you are going to have to play the game from start to finish without enhancing any swords or using your jewels to enhance your health and magic bars. I don’t recommend trying the Dark Realm on the playthrough you are attempting this trophy. Save often and don’t forget to change your armor as you get better stuff. Progress through the game slowly and learn how your opponents attack. Once you complete the game without having used any enhancements to your swords, health bar or magic bar you will receive this trophy. The end of the game will require you to be able to sustain longer fights so learn how to strafe while holding  as soon as you possibly can.

For this trophy you are going to have to play the game from start to finish without healing up with items. The best way to go about this trophy is to simply save often and farm yellow orbs as you take damage. I don’t recommend trying the Dark Realm on the playthrough you are attempting this trophy. The only really hard parts of this are the Marcellus and Fortinbras fights but both can be managed with smart blocking and frequent saves. After defeating Fortinbras and seeing your overall game rank you will receive this trophy if you haven’t used any form of items to heal (besides the Talisman).

For this trophy you are going to have to complete the game in 3 hours or less which is completely doable. Completing the game in under 3 hours is one of the requirements of an ‘S’ rank. Therefore, this is best combined with your S-Rank playthrough. For more information on shaving down time please refer to the Pro-nimusha trophy.

1. Complete the game with a total gameplay time of 3 hours or less.
2. Complete the game with 55,000 or more souls collected altogether.
3. Complete the game with more than 600 demon’s slain.

The best way to go about this trophy is to do so on Ultimate Difficulty. The game isn’t much harder but you won’t be forced to upgrade orbs or equip specific weapons to open specific locks which is because you will start the game with the Bishamon Sword. Play through the game and quickly make haste about killing the everything in your path and run past anything as Kaede that you can skip as Kaede won’t have an advantage against enemies. Continue through till you are ready to take on Marcellus final form and before using the Great Bow and Great Arrow simply save your game in the Keep where the first Moth Man was and check your play time. Marcellus and Fortinbras should take no more than 15 minutes and that’s generous, so make 4-5 runs through the Dark Realm to ensure you have the souls collected and genma defeated. Use an alternate save before heading through the end of the game in case you miss one of the requirements. Defeat Marcellus and Fortinbras abusing the fact you will have unlimited magic. Once you complete the game at the end if the ranking is ‘S’ you will receive this trophy.

Level 1:

• Spirits: 28
• Vases: 20
• You have your default weapon for this stage but only have one enemy to deal with. Ignore the vases and go straight for the Oda Warrior. Once destroyed hurry up and destroy the vases and only collect orbs if you know there is yellow orbs and you need health. Be sure to collect the herb at the back of the room in the chest.

Level 2:

• Spirits: 34
• Vases: 20
• Focus straight to the Oda Warrior on the right and hit him a couple times to knock him down. Immediately switch focus to the other Oda Warrior and go straight for him. Knock him down and grab the chest close to him, it contains Raizan. Use the Options button to equip Raizan and finish taking out the Oda Warriors and quickly destroy the vases but be sure to grab the other chest to get bullets.

Level 3:

• Spirits: 39
• Vases: 26
• Focus your attacks up the center and grab the Matchlock. Immediately rush up the center to the Red Knight in the back, hit him with a magic attack and immediately switch to the Matchlock and shoot down the Gyaran. Switch back to Raizan and finish off the Red Knight and then immediately get the vases destroyed.

Level 4:

• Spirits: 38
• Vases: 26
• Focus your immediate attention on the Three Eyes to your left and take him out (should only take 3 swipes) and then focus your attention on the other Three Eyes in the back. Once the two Three Eyes are defeated focus on the remaining jars and be sure to grab the bullets in a chest in the back left of the room as well as the Enryuu in the chest in the front right of the room.

Level 5:

• Spirits: 36
• Vases: 28
• This one is more difficult than you would think as there isn’t as much wiggle room as you would assume. Immediately swap to Enryuu and use your magic on the Red Knight to the right. As soon as he is on the floor swap to the other Red Knight and use magic on that one as well. Chop down the first Red knight and immediately go for the second. Destroy the Gyaran and quickly cut down the remaining vases but be sure to grab the bullets in the chest on the left.

Level 6:

• Spirits: 6
• Vases: 6
• There is zero wiggle room here. Immediately go straight for the front left and mid left vases and turn to the front right and mid right vases. Immediately knock the Oda Warriors backward and focus on quickly hitting the last two jars. Grab the herb on the left before before the level ends.

Level 7:

• Spirits: 39
• Vases:  32
• Don’t step forward until you are ready to head straight to the back. From the spawn use your magic on the Red Knight to the right using Enryuu and then hit the Red Knight to the left with magic. When the one on the right stands up hit him again to defeat it and then do the same for the one on the left. Now head straight up the middle collecting the Shippuu and destroying the remaining vases and Gyaran.

Level 8:

• Spirits: 42
• Vases: 36
• Equip Shippuu right away and run forward and interrupt the right side Bazuu’s roll attack with a magic whirlwind. Get behind the treasure chest and hit a second whirlwind. Make sure to grab the bullets in the front chest and the Holy Armor in the rear chest while you focus on destroying the remaining vases.

Level 9:

• Spirits: 42
• Vases: 28
• Use Shippuu to quickly make your way to the back of the room and equip your Raizan to use magic on the Barabazuu. Switch to your Matchlock and shoot both Gyarans down and switch back to Enryuu to take out the Barabazuu’s remaining health. Take the remaining time to destroy the rest of the vases and grab the bullets from the chest.

Level 10:

• Spirits: 6
• Vases: 6
• This one is another one you don’t want to move from the spawn point. As soon as you spawn switch to the Matchlock with regular bullets. Immediately aim up the middle and take two shots to destroy the two vases in front of you. Switch your bullets to Burst Bullets and show the Red Knight twice. Once down hug the front of the room and take out the vase on the right and then the one on the left. Run up the left side wall to the next vase but be weary as a Three Eyes will fall from the ceiling. Do NOT get too close to the right side or you will spawn the other Three Eyes on the other side. Either go straight for the vases or take your chances by taking out the Three Eyes that fell from the ceiling. Either way be sure to grab the herb in the chest in the far right corner of the room

Level 11:

• Spirits: 39
• Vases: 30
• Immediately start cutting your way up the center with Shippuu and use your magic when you are sure you are going to hit both Three Eyes. Continue up the middle to the Red Knight and hit him with magic also. Finish him off with Enryuu and destroy the remaining vases.

Level 12:

• Spirits: 44
• Vases: 36
• Head right up the center using Shippuu and hit both Barabazuu with your whirlwind magic If you have enough magic left for a second whirlwind use that but if not swap to Enryuu and use that magic to take out the Barabazuu. Once both are defeated simply clean up any remaining vases to finigh up this mini game.

Once you have completed all 12 levels you will be awarded with this trophy. Be sure to save at the end so Ultimate Mode will become playable.

Once you get a hold of Samanosuke again head into the West Area through the Red Door you unlocked with Kaede. Proceed until you get to the house with the blue plasma on the door with three locks on it. You will need Shiden equipped and leveled up to level three. Head inside this house and look to Samanosuke’s right and you will see a silver statue on a counter. Right below the statue is a treasure chest. This item is inside the treasure chest, open it for the item and this trophy.

For this trophy you are going to need to collect both long ranged weapons for Samanosuke. The two long ranged weapons are the Bow and the Matchlock. Here is where you obtain each of these weapons:

• Bow: After the cutscene with Yumamaru and Kaede in the abandoned keep head through the door at the end of the corridor and head through to the room with the stairs ahead. Head in the doorway under the stairs and you will see this box as soon as you enter the room. The answer key for this box is rotate the left four once, the right four once, the left four once and the right four twice. This will open the box giving you the Bow.
• Matchlock: Once you get a hold of Samanosuke again Head into the West Area through the Red Door you unlocked with Kaede. Proceed until you get to the house with the blue plasma on the door with three locks on it. You will need Shiden equipped and leveled up to level three. Head inside this house and look to Samanosuke’s right and you will see a silver statue on a counter. This statue is missing its head and the head can be found in a chest in the courtyard where you fight Barabazuu and collect the Decorated Sword. Collect the head key and return to this room and use the key in the statue to gain access to a box in the back of the house. Open the box to collect this weapon.

Once you have collected both of these weapons you will obtain this trophy.

For this trophy you are going to have to collect all three pieces of Samanosuke’s armor. Here is a list of where to find each of his armor sets.

• Normal Armor: Obtained at the very start of the game, default armor.
• Holy Armor: When you get to the point where Kaede and Samanosuke are trapped between gates and you need to use levers to solve the puzzle start with pulling the first lever as Samanosuke. Then use Kaede to pull the lever on the right on the next set of levers. This frees up Samanosuke to pull the lever on the left. Use Kaede to pull the lever all the way to the left in the next set, this will open up the gates to Samanosuke’s right which was protecting a big box. Open the box to obtain this armor set.
• Great Armor: This piece of armor is located in a number box. After using the Decorated Sword to enter the East Area head along the path and over the bridge to the door that is locked behind a 2 lock green plasma. Open the door and head down the first hallway on the left. At the end of this hallway is a scroll on the wall. Collect the scroll and head through the door. Continue straight along that path until you get to the door on your left. Head through that door and head through the door with the level three plasma lock requiring a maxed Arashi. Continue forward until you get to the waterfall. Take out the enemies and head behind the waterfall to find this number box. To solve the box rotate the bottom left. top right, bottom right, bottom left and then bottom right. Once the number box opens you will obtain this piece of armor.

Once you have obtained all three piece of armor you will receive this trophy.

For this trophy you are going to need to complete the Dark Realm and obtain the Bishamon Ocarina on the 20th floor. Once you have the Bishamon Ocarina continue through the story until you defeat Marcellus Final Form. In the room immediately following the fight with Marcellus there is a gate door near the magic orb well in the center of the room. Simply stand right outside the door and play the Bishamon Ocarina. The door will open and the Bishamon Sword is in the wall in the north side. Simply walk up to the wall and a cutscene will play and the sword will be yours as well as this trophy.

Once you defeat the battle ax demon head through the door behind him and you will enter a courtyard with a few demons attacking a soldier. Defeat the three demons before the soldier is defeated by the demons to unlock this trophy.

For this trophy you are going to need to Special Attack on a genma using Kaede. Kaede’s attacks are similar to Samanosuke’s only she is much more nimble. The best way to special attack an enemy is to hold  and press  while aiming towards an enemy to backflip over them and if they are directly facing away from you press  again and Kaede will slice the genma’s throat and you will unlock this trophy.

You get access to Marcellus a second time at the end of the game once you head through the Evil Door using the Evil Plate. Once you get through you need to use the Great Bow and Great Arrow to access the room. During the fight, the first part will show Marcellus wielding a shield. Attack him until the shield shatters and this is his final form.

Once the fight starts block incoming attacks and wait for Marcellus to back up far away and pause. When he does this he is going to follow up with a lunge towards you and slash you. You need to block at the moment of impact with your top parry his attack. Once his attack is parried you will need to instantly attack with . If there is a large yellow flash of light you have successfully parried and as long as you attack fast enough you will critical strike.

After using the Decorated Sword to enter the East Area, head along the path and over the bridge to the door that is locked behind a 2 lock green plasma. Open the door and head down the first hallway on the left. At the end of this hallway is a scroll on the wall. Collect the scroll and head through the door. Continue straight along that path until you get to the door on your left. Head through it and pass through the door with the three green locks using a maxed out Arashi. Pass by the creek through the next two doors until you arrive at a waterfall. What you want to do for this trophy is lure one or both of the enemies onto the rope bridge. Once there is an enemy on the rope bridge cut the ropes to knock the bridge down. If there was an enemy on the bridge when you did this you will receive this trophy.

If you are nearing the end of the game and still have not received this trophy head to the Moth Man and enter the Dark Realm and head down to the fourth floor where there are four Red Knights that spawn on that floor. You will have a few opportunities on this floor. If your swords are defeating the enemies too quickly consider equipping your default sword.
