Pve Overview.

Bushi Noct gets +5 Attack Stat and gains the Dark Element.
For a long time Bushi Noct was still a downgrade to Bushi since it did not learn Iaigiri in its learnset. This was fixed in Tides of Terraria and Bushi Noct is now one of the best fire attackers. It is still very squishy and beam weak to Comets, Beam Slicer and Blast Cannon hurts.
A lot of bosses do use dark attacks as well, so resisting dark vs some bosses is a benefit.
Bushi Noct can be found early in eggs on Sakurajima.

Bushi Noct is a good Nocturnal Logging/Kindling pal if you get one early. It has a decent spread of Work Skills for Applied Technique Books.
