How to unlock the Kusarigama Master achievement in Nioh - Definitive Guide
PowerPyx, and, rmchiva925, Sellers
This is only possible after completing main mission “Immortal Flame” in the Sekigahara Region (fifth region). Completing that mission will unlock new missions in the dojo for obtaining the weapon based mystic arts. You need 500,000 proficiency with each weapon type to unlock the mystic art for it. After getting half a million proficiency points, the dojo mission unlocks. Complete the mission and then buy the mystic art using skill points.
You can see your proficiency for each weapon type in the additional stats. While on the player stats, press
to view additional stats for proficiency. Some weapons and accessories provide bonuses on proficiency so you can max them out quicker.
The maximum proficiency score is 999,999. Your proficiency increases every time you hurt an enemy. Even if your weapon’s familiarity is at maximum (e.g. 900/900) it will keep counting additional proficiency points in the background. So you do not have to switch weapons after one is maxed out. Any proficiency you gain before unlocking the mystic art dojo missions does count to your proficiency, too.
The fastest way to farm proficiency is in New Game+. Missions will now have a higher level and drop divine items (legendary gear). This makes leveling weapon proficiency a lot faster. Higher level enemies give a significant boost in proficiency. The mission level works as a multiplier so pick a very high level mission. A good place to farm is the first main mission “Isle of Demons” (level 180 in New Game+). Either farm the normal mobs or keep replaying the Onryoki boss, but let him kill you before his health reaches zero. It will take 30 minutes to max out a weapon, and a little over 2 hours for all of them.
Note: With the addition of Way of the Demon with Patch 1.08, enemies in these missions are stronger and higher level, granting faster weapon proficiency. This will speed up the proficiency grinding.

When completing one of the missions in the Dojo, you will receive a level 123 Kusarigama, at this moment you will be about level 100, take this Kusarigama and upgrade the Snake Bite skill (Pulling a human enemy towards you), you can upgrade the knock down skill to a heap him off his feet. Having such a weapon, while on the Internet, feel free to raise the killed players from the Red Graves and with the help of this Kusarigama you will defeat any opponent who is much higher than you, if he is still stronger than you, throw the talisman of Laziness and Vulnerability at him, and he is yours .If your main weapon is Kusarigama, join the Honda Clan, it gives bonuses to this weapon.

The fastest way to improve your mastery of any weapon is in the New Game + , in the mission “Hunting Large Demons” (level 175) in the Kinki region.
There is only one enemy in this mission, the boss Onryoki, who is much stronger and more difficult than his brother from the first mission. All you need to do is just hit this boss with the right type of weapon. Since this is a boss, and a high-level one at that, your skill will accumulate much faster than in a fight with ordinary enemies. The speed of leveling up your skill depends on the number of hits you deal, and not on the amount of damage dealt, so the fastest way to level up your skills will be kusarigama (with the “reaper” skill) and double katanas (with the “water sword” skill), because they deal a lot of fast, but weak blows. With a spear, katana and axe, leveling up will take longer, but still very fast, because you don’t need to go anywhere. Always use a low stance to throw more punches in less time.
I advise you to equip a weapon with the lightning element, as it slows down the enemy and you will have more time to attack. Stay behind the boss's right leg and attack. If you die, it doesn’t matter, just start over, the main thing here is to just beat the boss. Over time, you will learn how to kill this boss with any weapon and memorize all his moves. Use your favorite talismans and pills (such as Talisman of Sloth, Exhaustion, Strength Pills, Defense Increase Talisman, etc.) to give yourself more time to try.
And don’t forget, to complete a mission in the dojo you need 500 thousand skills, you don’t have to level it up any further.
Also, if you learn how to kill the boss while you are leveling up your skill, you will also receive a trophy for completing ten missions with a partner, because an NPC helps you in this battle.

If the fight in the dojo seems difficult, then a simple but long option would be to use the middle stance and hold the block, playing passively the boss will often attack and open up, spend ki accordingly and this is to your advantage since you can use the finishing technique on the triangle.
