Bracing Breeze is one of the Spear Skills in Nioh2. It is a Boss Skill that is dropped by Maeda Toshiie that parries human enemy's attack and then counter attacks.

 

Bracing Breeze Description

Deflect an incoming attack. Press and additional Square to also stab the enemy. Successfully deflecting an enemy's attack will alter the technique executed by the additional button input. (Mid Stance only)
Command: L1 + Square (Square while guarding)

  

Bracing Breeze Notes

  • If the attack doesn't parry anything, pressing square again will do a mediocre damage stab. Pressing it after you parry a move will cause you to jump into the air and slam down on the enemy, doing much more damage and briefly stunning them for more followups.

      So, farming this wasn't too hard but took some time.

      Go to the Dream region bottom right "Mataza of the Spear" and farm him. Dropped on normal difficulty (Dream of the Samurai).
      Took me about 40-50 tries for Triple Threat and about 30 for Bracing Breeze.

      For the absolute fastest farm bind the "Divine Branch Fragment" to your keybinds and immediately use it after you picked up the loot, doesn't matter if the Mission Complete pops up or not you only lose the exp, which is about 135k and really not that much considering the time you waste on double speaking and the mission summary after.

      Such a pushover lol

        For anyone who not know the use of this skill, this skill allow you to parry enemy attack (human enemies only).Sure, it’s useless in combat, but why not try to connect some attack after switching stance? Like piercing rain (high stance switch after ki pulse) dancing monkey (low stance switch after ki pulse) and some skill that will continue dancing monkey! So you can use Bracing Breeze as an effective attack to connect with some skill I have mentioned about
