what is the best odachi to use towards endgame ? and where to get it from. i'm currently stuck with my friend in sekigahara, need a new weapon cause damage output atm is terrible. i need magatama and weapon choices i really dont know too much about this game i just play and ended up getting stuck

"Endgame" for you is Edo so obviously you'd get stuff from dungeons there. Honestly you don't need the "best weapon" since you're only in Seki. Standard white-blue weapons can carry you through that area as long as you build your character to maximize damage. You really want to start investing in smelting once you're in edo and beyond.

If you disagree/ are still struggling then you should check the wiki in the Odachi section and look at gold weapons in Seki.

Best Seki Odachi I can think of offhand is the Master Sword. If you get into the Netherworld area, you can also get Daihannyanagamitsu. Big mouthful, but a good Odachi nonetheless. Make sure you've also got Odachi SF/Affinity mags equipped to maximise damage output.

They are talking about skill force, it's a stat that the best mags offer, they directly affect your skill dmg massively so once you get max affinity you want to start swapping out mags for skill force until about lvl 80 where you should have max affinity without mags, by then you should have all SF mags. The best SF mags are the higher ranked ones but if your skill level is lower than than skill force boost then it will have no credit from it. Off the top of my head I know that Oodachi skill force mags are fairly easy to get via quests and through Miroku's bargain bin.

Also might be an idea to get an Oodachi affinity title because that means you can get more skill force earlier.

EDIT: I should mention that I'm a PC player but the information should still be legit.

i have a question though what are some good mags for odachi ? so i can start farming to get the mags i need

Ariake Magatama is a good one. It boosts Skills of Rank 3 and above by 40% per magatama. You can find it by grinding Shinoda Forest on Hard (in a 5 man party, obviously. More party members = more mobs = higher chances of getting magatama), or else occasionally from the Nurikabe Field Boss in Kikaigahara. It has a Chakra cost of 32 which is... well there's more demanding ones. On the downside, it decreases Dark Element, so Dark skills will be weaker. Not that I can think of any on an Odachi offhand.

Akebono Magatama is also good, but only for skills of Rank 5 and above, which receive a 47% skill force boost. THat one can be found grinding Byakkou Cavern on Hard. It's Chakra cost is 13, which is much better. You'll have no trouble equpping four of those, but if you don't have skills of Rank 5 or higher, it's no good.

While I'm thinking of it, it may be better for you to get Sougyou Magatama than Ariake. Sougyou might only work on Rank 4 and above, and provide 1% less Skill Force, but with a Chakra cost of 7, there's nothing at all to stop you equipping 4 of them. Sougyou can be found in Byakkou as well, but only in parties up to 4 people (yourself included that is). If you run 5-man, Sougyou won't drop.

question is there any places i can farm this solo ? really dont have any friends on the game

Drop rates are ass. Find a filler party

The locations I listed *can* be raided solo, but as Khaos Muffins said: Drop rates are ass. Even in a 5-man party, it'll take a solid 3-4 hours of grinding just to get one magatama. To get four of a kind... the rest of your life. At least, that's how it feels. I had to do 8 hours of grinding just to get one Sekisei magatama for my Staff user. That was *with* full parties, *and* with 3x 300% drop boosts.
