senpou temple level. located in a small house. You will know you are close when you defeat a heavily "armored" boss.

I can confirm that it exists. Traveling through Senpou Temple, when you reach the "Main Hall" savepoint you're getting very close. Instead of proceeding in the Main Hall, head back out the way you come in, and begin moving through a cave. Eventually, you'll find yourself traveling further up the mountain. Near its summit, you'll find a small house-like structure that houses the text.

Like me

Not possible, because the section with the demon bell is closed off of the rest of the temple by a one-sided door

correct, thru a hidden door, opens either way

Replies are wrong, you can go as soon as you reach the Ashina Castle Gate in Outskirts. Useless to get it early though, I can’t skill into anything because it isn’t unlocked story-progression wise.

High monk is arguably one of, if not the best combat art, people don't give this tree the credit it deserves, and it really annoys me.

Why would you call a combat art,that can be reliable used to punsih very few enemies one of the best combat arts in the game is a mystery,not even say if you want punish sweeps take leaping kicks,high monk additional attks is useless nad noone of this skills worth spending skill points on first playthrough anyway.

Lmao what are you on? All of the skills in this tree are fantastic. High Monk is effectively Mikiri Counter for sweep attacks. Praying Strikes - Exorcism is an extremely reliable interrupt, and can't be deflected. The Virtuous Deed passives make sure you have plenty of supplies at all times. Devotion helps you use spiritfalls and candies more reliably and with fewer windows of vulnerability. Even if you ignore everything else, the Virtuous Deed passives alone arguably make this tree more flexible than the others, as it lets you incorporate items and tools into combat far more frequently.

With virtouos deed you basically don't have to farm for most items as you'll always be well stocked so it's a pretty great time saver.

i am stuck at ishiin but i have to say that high monk shouldn't have been in this tree, it is too good

I've platinumed the game, this is a useless skill set.

I missed this skill tree on my first playthrough lol
