Collect Divine gear in Dream of the Strong

Introduces the first post-story gear rarity used to refresh a build after the original campaign.

PC / Global, Nioh: Complete Edition with all three expansions
WHERE & HOW TO FARM

Where to farm

Available New Game+ missions across the world map, beginning with Dream of the Strong.

Divine equipment enters the New Game+ drop pool, giving a completed first campaign a new gear target. The practical route is to replay an available mission in Dream of the Strong, defeat its enemies and boss, then compare any Divine pieces with your current loadout. The rarity alone does not make an item a useful upgrade: check level, weapon or armor type, effects, and whether it fits your build. Keep worthwhile pieces and use Blacksmith services when the improvement is worth the material and gold cost.

GET STARTED

How to farm

Before you go

  • Complete the original main story and unlock New Game+.
  • Select an unlocked mission on Dream of the Strong.
  • Unlock the Blacksmith and keep spare equipment for comparison or services.
  1. Choose an accessible mission from the Dream of the Strong map.
  2. Enter with a loadout capable of clearing the enemies at that difficulty.
  3. Defeat enemies and the mission boss; inspect the drops rather than expecting a guaranteed Divine item.
  4. Complete the mission and review all equipment in the results or inventory.
  5. Compare Divine pieces by level, weapon or armor slot, effects, and build fit.
  6. Keep a useful upgrade and sell, offer, or otherwise process pieces you do not need.
  7. Use Soul Matching or another Blacksmith service only after checking its cost.

Farming tips

  • Divine is a rarity tier in this cycle, not a promise that every mission or enemy will award one.
  • A compatible effect and appropriate level can matter more than rarity color alone.

Repeat, collect and use

Mission clears are repeatable, but Divine drops are random rather than guaranteed. Keep replaying content you can clear comfortably while upgrading selectively.

Common mistakes

  • Equipping every Divine item automatically; compare its actual stats and effects first.
  • Spending heavily to upgrade a temporary piece; wait until the item supports your build.
  • Entering Dream of the Strong before completing the campaign; unlock the cycle through story completion.

When to stop or switch

Stop farming the current mission when its drops no longer improve your build, then advance to another available mission or cycle.
