The area is filled with burning buildings and archers with wide visibility, requiring careful movement. Items are scattered, including Spirit Emblems and Divine Confetti, but caution is advised due to lurking enemies like an Axe-wielding foe. Strategic engagement and item collection are key to progressing through this section.
Hirata Estate - Main Hall Navigation
You will come out of the well and can commune with the Hirata Estate - Main Hall Idol. Navigate around the burning buildings, defeat a flaming archer, then grapple onto the rooftops for a better view. The archers here have a wide visibility range, so plan your movements carefully. You might notice some items on the rock islands in the pond, but it is best to wait before retrieving them. Walk along the entire rooftop, drop down at the end, and use the underfloors to double back and enter the main area. Inside, you will find 2x Spirit Emblem and 1x Divine Confetti. Be cautious of an Axe-wielding enemy lurking behind the confetti. Pick up 1x Dousing Powder near some samurai armor, then return outside to finish off the remaining enemies. The item in the pond is 1x Ceramic Shard. Head left from there and use it to lure one of the guards from the building ahead. Defeat him and collect 1x Light Coin Purse, then deal with the nearby enemies as best you can.
