Samurai Weapons are further divided into: Axes, Cestuses, Dual Swords, Swords, Odachis, Spears, and Switchglaives. Weapons in Nioh 3 are style-restricted and require the player to have two separate loadouts for two styles.

How Do Weapons Skills Work in Nioh 3?
Weapons Skills can be activated through the Skill Management option in the Shrine Menu. There are three types of skills:
- Samurai (only used for Samurai-specific nodes)
- Ninja (only used for Ninja-specific nodes)
- Common
Each type of skill's capacity can be increased by finding Texts or Memorandums. You can view all skills by opening the Status option in the Main Manu. Some skills will unlock Martial Arts and Ninjutsu, which requires Samurai Points and Ninja Points to unlock their related nodes from the skill trees. Once learned, you can activate (equip) the Martial Arts and Ninjutsu by going to the Customize Martial Arts/Ninjutsu option in the Main Menu. While exploring, you will also find Young Samurai's Locks and Young Ninja's Locks, which give you 1 Samurai or 1 Ninja point, respectively.
