Mugen’s Soldier is fairly weak as an enemy, only having two Shield Points. Hikari steps in and you’ll be required to fight the solider using Hikari’s Challenge Path Action. He proclaims that Mugen will be the future king, and threatens the tavernkeeper by drawing his sword and demanding more drinks. The Tavern brawl is a rowdy soldier that serves your brother, General Mugen. I highly recommend picking up a Nameless Sword from the merchant to speed up most of the encounters that remain in this Chapter. On the way to the Tavern there are merchants you can buy equipment and items from. Afterward, you’ll be informed of a brawl at the tavern and Hikari will head off to resolve it. Hikari steps in, reminding the soldier that he’s no more or less a citizen than the soldier is. As the scene plays out, a nearby citizen comments on his swordsmanship, asking if he’d be willing to train him, which Hikari accepts.Īfter a short spar, the nearby soldier steps in and proceeds to talk down to the citizen, treating them as lesser. We’re presented with another cutscene that’s a short flyover of the town surrounding Ku Castle, which then focuses on Hikari practicing his swordsmanship on a hill in the town that overlooks the market.

Then when he’s broken a full boosted Hachimonjigiri from Hikari’s Learned Skills, or Wild Cut from Ritsu can dispose of him quickly enough.Īfter this fight a cutscene will play that concludes the war and time skips to the present day, three years later. To deal with the Southern General easily, a basic attack from Hikari and Ritsu’s Wild Cut will break him. The second turn Rai Mei can boost her Sweep and defeat both soldiers, leaving only the Southern General. This encounter goes much quicker ignoring the boss for the first couple turns, using Rai Mei’s Sweep alongside basic sword attacks from Hikari and Ritsu to break the Soldiers. The Southern General himself is weak to Sword and Lightning while having 4 Shield Points. The Southern Soldiers are similar to the Southern Officers, sharing the same weaknesses in Polearm, Sword, and Lightning while still having 2 Shield Points. The final encounter of this section consists of Two Southern Soldier 2s and the Southern General. Use Aggressive Slash, Wild Cut, and Thunderous Stab as needed to clean up the enemies. If Rai Mei attacks after either Hikari or Ritsu, they should hit the officer and Rai Mei should always Sweep to break all three foes. You can choose to use Sweep to prevent the two Southern Soldiers from attacking, or Thunderous Stab to prevent the Southern Officer from attacking by breaking them. Thunderous Stab is a single-target attack that deals two hits, one as Polearm and the second as Lightning.ĭepending on the turn order, Rai Mei may get to move before some of the enemies. Sweep is a Polearm attack that hits all foes.

Rai Mei has two skills that help with the next couple fights, Sweep and Thunderous Stab. This is just another part of the breaking tutorial, but you’re joined by Rai Mei for this fight adding a third member to your cast. Once again, this fight will heal you to full after, so ther’s no need to conserve resources. The Souther Officer has 2 Shield Points, and is weak to Polearm, Sword, and Lightning. The second encounter consists of Two Southern Soldier 1 and a Southern Officer. If not, Ritsu’s Wild Cut or basic attacks can easily finish the remaining soldier. Having Hikari boost Aggressive Slash can potentially take out both enemies with a single move. You’re healed to full after this battle, so there’s no need to conserve resources. These guys have just a single Shield Point and are weak to both Sword and Spear. This first encounter serves as a tutorial for Breaking foes and has you facing two Southern Soldier 1s. This short section consists of just 3 battles which includes a boss, and takes place with Hikari and chapter companions Ritsu and Rai Mei.

The beginning of Hikari’s story starts before the present day, during a battle that took place three years prior to the present day. As a guide for the Main Story, there will be story spoilers present but will be made as limited as possible. As such, additional Path Actions from other travelers will not be present. This walkthrough is written so that Hikari is your first and only traveler. Includes useful Path Actions available, skill and equipment recommendations for the chapter, as well as boss Strategies. This walkthrough covers the first chapter of Hikari Ku’s story in Octopath Traveler 2.
