general

four legged fucks

i love em

but if you don’t get those timings right rip

they are not fun with no kuro charm

they’re easy timings tho

No kuro charm = any blocking (and sometimes parrys i think?) you still get damaged

so even if you miss a little bit of timing, since its NG+

youll get chip damage

so you have to be extra careful

my favorite boss is demon of hatred

You mean

the darksouls boss

sure

the fight is one where you don’t rely on parrying

more blocking and dodging

>blocking

you mean

just dodging

fire damage is a no no

block those stomps

???

i dont know what youre talking about- so its probably just

block those stomps

me running around him

because running and dodging > all

when he stomps block, you are in position for 3-4 easy hits

or

you can just

run around him

counter-clockwise

and whenever he stops get a hit in

and you get so many hits in easy

his weakest move is his headbutt

i dont really

literally dodged it accidentally every time

remeber most of his attacks

it only took me a few trys

tries*

i remember a lot of em, just bc the fight felt so fluid

People overrate how hard he and the final boss are

Isshin

The sword saint

yes

I was dissapointed

phase 3 is a disappointment

Once you got over the hill that is phase 1

phase 2 feels pretty weak

and phase 3 is a joke

what? phase 1 is easy

phase 2 is where i kept dying

i never died phase 1

Most people's roblem

Is getting over phase 1

literally 100% of the streamers i watched p

had to get over phase 1

then phase 2 was a few tries later

his spear kept getting me

mostly the unblockable thrust

i still dont see how

you never died to his phase 1

i’d get it confused with the unblockavke foot swipe

unless you just ran around

or got good RNG

phase 1 was just a harder version of the one dude

before

incorrect

Isshin Phase 1 is a combination of moves and sword techniques youve seen across the game

at faster and more mastered levels

Hence the title sword saint

you can see "mastered" forms of other techniques

with the most notable and easy to see being the ichimonji

but others you can tell if you pay attention

the shurikin swipe move helps

>using shinobi tools on final boss

it stuns him and you get in 1 hit and like 1-2 posture bits

i’m not changing my play style for the final boss

I didn't find the shinobi tools fun for bosses

because i was essneitally fire crackers or shuriken

and it really wasnt

"fun" to play that way
