New Sword Found at Pillar of Honor, Tsushima.

Swords in Tsushima don't have a significant difference in stats. Unless, of course, after one particular sword has been upgraded, then it will have higher stats (damage & speed). But, at low level, all swords have the same stat and each upgrade also increases the same amount of stat for all swords. So, the main difference between all swords is the look. If you found your best good looking sword for you, then you only have to focus and upgrade that sword for the entire game. I know this because I have several swords in my collection already, so I came to this conclusion.

Today, I found a new sword to add to my collection. It's located in Pillar of Honor. I stumbled upon this area while exploring the undiscovered (?) mark on the map. So I took several screenshots the moment I found the swords on the pillar. I hope my photos are eligible for the gaming weekly photography contest (cinematic shots). You can read about the contest details here.

Cinematic Moment

While in photo mode, most settings were default numbers, unless I mentioned them. For most of the picture I took, I used vivid color grading with 32% intensity, -0.4 exposure bias, 1.4 contrast, 329 wind direction, and cloud 41.

As you can see, the sword was left on the pillar. Waiting to be discovered. Today was my lucky day to be the owner of this sword.

Genbu's Darkness

My new sword is called Genbu's Darkness. It's for warrior who like to fight in the shadows. But who care about the description. The cosmetic is fine. Whoever like the color of shadow will like this sword. For me, I have my favorite white sword.

Genbu's Darkness in Action!

While walking around, I found a group of enemies holding a woman as hostage. It was a great timing to test the Darkness of Genbu Sword. Dodging, rolling, and jumping, like the usual battle routine. It's not that long until victory was mine and the woman was rescued.

Farewell

So, that's all for today. I hope you have a wonderful gaming time today. All photos were screenshots taken by me while playing the Ghost of Tsushima games. I hope you enjoy it. Last but not least, I wish all the best and good luck to all the participants in the gaming photography contest. Thank you and goodbye.
