Strategy
Strategy for 1st and 2nd HP Bars
- You will want to stay as close as possible to the enemy, as the boss will have an advantage in a ranged fight. Shinobi Firecrackers are effective in stunning Gyoubu’s horse for a few seconds at short range.
↑When the ▼Marker appears near the boss, press R2 to close the distance.
- You will have a chance to counter when Gyoubu Oniwa launches his massive attacks. However, the gap between his attacks is rather small, so always be on guard.
↑Attack with a two-handed weapon for big damage.
- You can build the opponent’s posture gauge efficiently if you parry each attack. Get a good feel for the enemy’s rhythm to make parrying easier.
↑You can stay safe by guarding early. If you guard before the boss attacks, there is little risk of failure.
- If the boss gets too far away, you can throw Shurikens at him, then use Grappling Hook once the green marker appears.
- You need to land two Deathblows to kill Gyoubu Oniwa.
