Daki

Daki, the only known Obi Art User

"Demons never grow old. And they don't need money to eat. They don't get sick. They don't die. They have nothing to lose, We beautiful, powerful demons... can do anything we want!"

-Former Upper Moon 6, Daki.

Obi Art, or commonly known as Daki BDA, is one of the Demon Arts you can obtain when you reach Level 5 by talking to Gaburiyeli. You can also use Muzan Blood to reroll your Demon Art to obtain it.

Note: As long as you have this Blood Demon Art, you will have 4 obi sashes attached your thoracic spinethat pulsate and your M1 and M2 attacks are also replaced with obi sash strikes, providing extended M1 and M2 range. Any existing fighting style will also be removed and new ones cannot be purchased as long as you have this Blood Demon Art even to just use their specials or for other perks such as Soryuu's rush kick.

Combos: Obi is one of the trickier arts to use but as of Update 5.0 its M1 stun has been buffed and is now viable in pvp

  • First Combo: M1 x4 Then M2, use Dash forward and use Obi Layered slash. This combo can be a bit tricky to time and punishable if mistimed.
  • Second Combo: Rush then M1 x4 then use Obi Killer, M1 x4 again then use Obi Whip and rush opponent immediately after, M1 x4 again then use Obi Rush to finish off Combo dealing roughly 170~ Damage. If opportunity presents itself you can extend it further by using Obi layered slash, this combo can one-shot non Himejima Hybrids and Demons if you have Kanroji Family.
  • Third Combo: This combo has a very short CD of only about 15 seconds for both moves allowing you to use it several times in a single fight, Rush then M1 x4 then Obi Whip and rush again this time doing M1 x4 then M2 dashing towards the opponent when they ragdoll and immediately using Obi Layered Slash to launch them.
    • Fourth Combo: This Combo is more of a shorter variant of the Third Combo above, instead you get close to the opponent then Obi Whip and rush, initiating the M1 x4 into M2 then Obi Layered Slash.

Overall Obi hits quite hard and Obi Whip/Obi Killer can function as decent combo extenders/starters, do note Obi Whip is trickier to use as extender and can get you punished. Obi requires really precise timing to perfectly execute combos and not get punished but is highly rewarding when done right.

The move Obi Whip functions exceptionally well as a quick "get off me" attack if the enemy gets too close or aggressive. You can quickly use it to initiate combos if the opponent gets in close. Subsequently Obi Killer has hyper armor and a short windup so you can use it to counter an opponents combo if the opportunity arises.

Trivia[]

  • The concept of the Obi Art is similar to the four-legged pincers of the Iron Spider Suit from the Marvel series, Spider-Man.
  • The Obi M1s do approximately 7 Damage and 8 Damage with Kanroji, giving you a damage of 35 in a full M1 Cycle, this is comparable to a Custom Slayer Nichirin in damage.
  • This BDA gives you M1 range roughly 1.5x the size of a normal Nichirin sword and is excellent for crowd control especially in Raids. therefore this is the Third highest M1 range achievable for a demon (behind 1. Temari balls 2. Greatsword).
  • When you get this BDA any fighting style you may previously have had will be removed from your character and for the duration that you have this BDA equipped, you cannot buy a fighting style either
  • Obi posseses the unique trait of all its moves going through guards, at this time it is uncertain if this is a bug or not but do not try to block an Obi Users moves- you will be punished for it.
  • The art can be played both defensively and offensively, Obi Rage is a significant boon that can greatly extend the duration of your fighting capability allowing you to outlast opponents
