There is no doubt that Traversal level 6 is a very rough and frustrating journey to go through, especially the final boss fight against Ruinous Gouma, and his high range of new attacks, on this guide I will explain to the best of my abilities how to build your character, which is Mature Yukimura in this case, since he is by far one of the strongest characters in the game.

Mature Yukimura Sanada - Emblem recommendation & stats

''Sanada's strategies''

Illusion Spear

Team Formation

If you think you don't require defense, you can choose what's best among the characters you have, my personal recommendation will be either Masayuki Sanada or Kunoichi for a STATS infliction boost by 100%.


Like I stated at first, Yukimura from Spirit of Sanada, is by far one of the strongest characters to have been introduced so far, with a crazy and super easy arsenal of movements, in particular his Charge 5 on his ''Normal Attack/Charge Attack'' section square, square, square, square, triangle. which I highly recommend to spam against boss fights, it's the only combo that will drain most of their barrier/health. To get rid of troops very quickly, use his Charge 4 on his ''Normal Attack/Charge Attack'' section square, square, square, TRIANGLE SPAM. It can travel a long distance and will most likely save you from many of enemies's attacks.

DON'T SLEEP ON THE ''HYPER ATTACK'' Samurai Warriors characters have this very useful special set of movement called ''Hyper Attack'', which is used to gather K.O.s very quickly, however this attack can be used to evade enemies's attacks, when your evasion cooldown hasn't charged yet, so try to use it when you do the boss fights, it will save your life in very unexpected ways.



Unfortunately there isn't much I can do to help with this section, as you may know those treasures are very RNG and you cannot do a soft reset, since you will get the same 3 every time you do. But I can suggest some I would pick if you are lucky enough to encounter them.

Do not underestimate the effect of this item, it may have been useless on previous levels, but on Traversal 6 is essential, since you need to form the ''Perfect Team'' so by increasing your reroll of heroes by 30, it is a blessing, too bad that can't be said the same thing about the rng..

This is by far the strongest item in the game, it literally screams ''I'm gonna carry you'' not only it increases your defense by 100% based on your speed, but it also gives you a nice speed boost by 15% so if you see this get it if you can.

Getting the formation you need will be a tough challenge, since the King's cauldrons will appear less on Traversal Level 6, if you feel confident and think you'll get it, you can skip it, but I would play it safe and equip either Vermilion bird or White Tiger as a formation.

Vigor, Skill, Speed, Strength, Wisdom, Charm, which one will you get I wonder? whichever you'll get it will be good, since you gonna need all these leveled up decently.

This will grant you 3 of one of the 5 emblems, however only Bolt and Flame are the one you are focusing on, so this might come useless in the end, I haven't tested soft resetting with this items or backing up your saves, but something tells me its fixated, so when you choose this one, it can be either amazing or meh.

Increasing your crystal beads by 3 at the cost of losing all your tears of blood, is a fair trade IMO, like I said you will not encounter the cauldrons very often, however I recommend to use the Crystal beads on the characters you need for your team, that I have listed above, don't just waste them on any character.


Good luck everyone, this was my first written guide, so I hope you will find this useful and informative, let me know if you have any question, I will answer as best as I can.
