Equipment Builder

Choose weapons and armor by named set, rarity tier, and enhancement level. Every affix slot you fill updates your attack, defense, and derived stats instantly — no tab-switching, no mental math.

Martial Arts & Ninjutsu Trees

Map out your complete skill tree before spending a single Lock in-game. Prerequisite paths are enforced automatically, and your running Locks cost updates as you make selections across all weapon types.

Soft-Cap Curves

See exactly where each of the seven core attributes caps out. An interactive curve plots your current value against every point of the scaling function — cap markers and rate-per-point labels show you precisely when investing more stops paying off.

Samurai & Ninja Arts

Plan independently for both Samurai and Ninja builds in the same session. Switch between class skill trees, browse every weapon type's Martial Art set, and see how Transformed Arts and Mystic Arts fit into your progression.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Nioh 3 Build Planner free?

Yes — fully free. Create an account at no cost and start planning immediately. A Premium tier is available for users who want unlimited saved builds and shareable links, but every planning feature works on the free tier.

Do I need to download anything?

No download required. The build calculator runs entirely in your browser on any device — desktop, tablet, or phone.

What does the character builder include?

All seven core attributes with soft-cap curves, 17 weapon types, 85 named armor sets, Guardian Spirits with Crucible passives, Martial Arts and Ninjutsu skill trees with prerequisite tracking, Soul Cores, Clan Bonuses, and a full build summary view.

How accurate is the stat calculator?

All formulas are verified against in-game data. Soft-cap thresholds, Ki Recovery scaling, attack values, and derived stats are cross-referenced against actual gameplay measurements. Where in-game values differ from our model, the community can submit corrections directly in the planner.

Can I share my build with other players?

Yes. Premium accounts can generate a shareable link for any saved build, including an Open Graph preview card optimized for Reddit and Discord. The recipient can open the link without an account to view the build.

Does the planner support both Samurai and Ninja?

Both classes are fully supported with independent skill trees, stat distributions, and equipment slots. You can plan a Samurai and a Ninja build side by side in the same session.
