Ginkui is a powerful Kagune in Ghoul://Re, but progressing with it takes strategy. This Ghoul://Re Ginkui Progression guide will help you go from rank one to max level efficiently. Whether you’re new or returning after the wipe, this breakdown will get you start
When you first log in, you’ll start from scratch like everyone else. If you played during CC and reached max level, you can reclaim your old clan and Kagune/Quinque by talking to an NPC. However, you still need to grind your levels back up.
Ghoul://Re Ginkui Progression Guide
Key Early Steps:
- Focus on quest boards instead of randomly fighting ghouls.
- Completing quests rewards presents instead of loot bags.
- Use rewards to upgrade your gear and level up faster.
Ginkui’s Moveset
Ginkui specializes in fast slashes and combo extenders. Here’s a breakdown:
- Basic Slashes – Quick attacks that deal posture damage.
- Devour – A fast single slash with minor healing effects.
- Combo Slashes – A series of cuts that extend your combos.
Ginkui is great for chaining attacks but lacks defensive options. Be mindful of your positioning.
Combat & Leveling Up
NPC Difficulty: NPCs are tougher now, so avoid fighting bosses too early.
Parrying & Dodging: Many enemies, even NPCs, will dodge your attacks. Learn to mix up your combos.
Weapon Durability: Your weapon can break during fights, so keep backups or be ready to repair.
Efficient Grinding
Quest Boards: Always take quests to level up efficiently.
Fighting Ghouls: Only fight spawned ghouls if required by a quest.
Looting: New loot chests take longer to open, but they contain valuable rewards.
Dealing with Bosses
Boss fights can be tricky, especially at lower levels. Some bosses now have hyper armor, making them resistant to staggers. If you’re struggling, team up with others or use ranged attacks.
Watch for new attacks: Some bosses have unique moves, like slam-downs and spinning attacks.
Use teammates: If you see someone fighting a boss, jump in for extra EXP.
Save healing items: Boss fights can drain your HP fast.
PvP & Progression
PvP is now chance-based, meaning you won’t always secure a kill for ranking up. Fighting other players is risky, so make sure you’re prepared.
Weapon Matchups: Some weapons counter Ginkui. Be careful against players with strong hyper armor.
Rank Up Requirements: To reach the next rank, complete quests and defeat enemies.
Storage & Crafting: There is a crafting/storage system, but it’s still unclear how it fully works.
