Complete walkthrough for Nioh 3 Part 37. Learn strategies to defeat the challenging Wild Nue, find hidden Kodama, corpses, and chests, and unlock shortcuts.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    From the building's exit, go LEFT, sticking to the path to find boxes behind a building. Break them to rescue the Oracle Kodama. Enter the building to kill a Skeleton Warrior and loot a Big Chest.
  2. 2
    Head out and follow the path up the slope. To the left, kill a Dweller on a building. To the right, kill three Dwellers. Take the left path and go up the ladder.
  3. 3
    Head straight forward, snipe a Skeleton Warrior, then drop down behind the Regen Stone. Kill the Enchanted Fiend and Skeleton Warrior (prioritize the Warrior). Break the regen stone; the Oni on the other side will die automatically.
  4. 4
    Go up the building again to kill a roaming Dweller and get a Corpse. In the water area past the hole to the left, find another Corpse and a Chest in a building. Don't forget the Corpse by the hole itself.
  5. 5
    Drop down a random hole. Be ready for a tough fight with two Onmyo users and an Imp. Focus on the Imp first, then the mages.
  6. 6
    Head up the ramp to find a Nurikabe. Gesture to pass or kill it. Past the Nurikabe, kick down a ladder to create a shortcut to the shrine.
  7. 7
    Head back through the door. At the path split, the right path leads to a building with mist. Clear the mist (a Fiend) to loot a Chest. Ignore the ladder for now.
  8. 8
    Head left. Kill the Skeleton Warrior and two Dwellers guarding a Corpse. Find a locked door ahead, but use the ladder to the right.
  9. 9
    Go up this ladder and look for a nearby Corpse. From the ladder (facing away), head RIGHT to the wall to find a Hunter Kodama.
  10. 10
    Return to the ladder, go past it, and follow the path to a Hot Spring. Bathe here.
  11. 11
    Further on, a Wild Nue will appear. This is a tough fight, similar to the boss encounter but in a smaller area. The smaller area can be advantageous as Nue's attacks stop sooner, allowing for quicker hits. His Ki is also lowered much faster.
  12. 12
    Killing the Wild Nue earns a Trophy. Keys to victory include clearing the Yokai Realm quickly, using Living Weapon when needed, and dodging to the side to hit his exposed belly (weak point). Entering the fight with a regen effect from the Hot Spring and a Water Talisman is recommended.
  13. 13
    Note: You DO NOT have to destroy the Regen Crystal here, as Nue will not heal from it. Leave it until after he is dead.
Tips
  • Prioritize killing the Imp and Onmyo users in the hole encounter to avoid being overwhelmed.
  • Use the smaller arena to your advantage against the Wild Nue; his attacks are more predictable and leave him open for longer.
  • The Wild Nue's belly is his weak point, especially after his charge-and-flop attack.
  • Conserve your Living Weapon for critical moments during the Wild Nue fight.
  • The Hot Spring provides a regeneration buff that is very useful for the Wild Nue encounter.
  • Trophy for defeating the Wild Nue.
  • Various loot including Kodama, Corpses, and Chests throughout the area.
