Ninja Gaiden 2 Weapons


Ninja Gaiden 2 Weapons and Combos

Dragon Sword

  1. Acquired: Chapter 1
  2. Info: The Dragon Sword will be your go-to weapon for most situations in the game. It's fast, powerful and the Flying Swallow technique can save you in situations where you're quickly getting overwhelmed. Also, the Izuna Drop technique is very useful in large crowds of small enemies, since while the throw animation is playing Ryu is invincible.

Dragon's Claw and Tiger's Fang and Blade of the Archfiend

  1. Acquired: Dragon's Fang and Tiger's Claw (Chapter 4), Blade of the Archfiend (Chapter 14)
  2. Info: One of the most powerful weapons in the game, especially when you acquire the upgraded version of the Tiger's Claw and Dragon's Fang, the Blade of the Archfiend, in Chapter 14. The weapon will make some of the final boss fights infinitely easier.
  3. NOTE: Don't waste your yellow orbs upgrading the Dragon's Claw and Tiger's Fang, since when you acquire the Blade of the Archfiend in Chapter 14, it will automatically upgrade itself to level 4. However, you may wish to familiarize yourself with the Dragon's Claw and Tiger's Fang weapon early in the game so you're comfortable with it later on.

Eclipse Scythe

  1. Acquired: Chapter 6
  2. Info: The Eclipse Scythe is an extremely powerful, slightly slow weapon. The Scythe should be your weapon of choice when fighting large, lumbering beasts, as it can level even the strongest foes in a couple well-executed combos. Some of the later bosses can be defeated with a surprising amount of ease using the Scythe's Blood Rain attack.

Lunar Staff

  1. Acquired: Chapter 1
  2. Info: The Lunar Staff is quite powerful, but a bit slow. It should be your weapon of choice for large enemies until Chapter 6 (when you acquire the Eclipse Scythe). Also, the Lunar Staff has one very useful move for parrying flurries of incoming ranged attacks, called Bladed Spider (Y Y). This attack comes in handy for certain sections of boss fights, as it can act as an impenetrable barrier for Ryu.

Kusari-gama

  1. Acquired: Chapter 5
  2. Info: The Kusari-gama has the most devastating range out of any weapon in the game, and it's also one of the fastest. If you're surrounded, and need to quickly gain the upper hand, this should be your weapon of choice.

Vigoorian Flail

  1. Acquired: Chapter 9
  2. Info: The Vigoorian Flail is a very strong, very fast weapon. By comparison, it's just as fast as the Kusari-gama, but is actually more powerful.

Tonfa

  1. Acquired: Chapter 7
  2. Info: The Tonfa is one of the fastest weapons in the game, has extremely rapid combos with many hits (such as its Ultimate Technique), but has very short range.
