Notes & Builds

• Using the Genbu / Sohaya Guardian Spirit, The Unyudo Soul Core, four pieces of the Tatenashi set (Cuirass with Elemental Damage Taken mandatory), two accessories and a Scroll with Elemental Damage Taken, the Otani clan bonus, one armor piece with fixed Elemental Damage Taken (for example, Dragon head helmet) and Elemental damage Taken invested in Agyo Titles allows one to reach -100.0% Elemental Damage Taken, becoming immune to Fire, Water and Lightning damage; however, this doesn't grant immunity to those status effects.
• Combined with the 3 piece bonus of Dragon God's Sacred Treasure, the torso and legs of either the Platemail Armor or Warlord Armor, the Blue Dragon Guardian Spirit and tempering Projectile Damage Taken on every armor piece available, you can reach up to ~91% damage reduction against attacks the game considers projectiles. This also includes several Onmyo Magic Spells and every terrain effect.
• Damage bonus (Equipment weight) is global and applies to any attack you do.
