dude i need to thank you so much, the third method worked on the second try, i was stucked at this boss all day, you gave me freedom (I used 10 fistful of ash and used Tanto to increase the number of spirits and made it)
trying to find an easy alternative way is only advised in Dark Souls and Elden Ring, I think Miyazaki didn't design Sekiro to be like that but hope players would face it directly and beat the bosses by themselves
had no snap seeds nor spirit emblem, had mortal draw so I used the 4th method, took me a while to get the cheese to work, but I couldn't find a clearer explanation for method 4 anywhere so thanks
(September 2024) Anyone who has problems with this: The ash, Snapseed and firecracker are used to move he backwards! The stealth execution works only if you double jump of the medium tall rock in the back towards her. And it only works if you she is close enough to you. That's the actual trick.
I tried this method once, gave up, did her normally, which took me like 3 attempts. My second boss in this game and I just realized I did stuff out of order, I had like one bead so far. She was really fun to learn though, probably my favorite out of the 3 bosses I fought so far
From my point of view the Method 1 is the best but a little hard to do, the method 3 is hard because you need to do very fast the process of throw the fistful of ash and hit 2 times and repeat other 9 times before she attack and complete with Fireworks (2 upgrades) but I believe this method will it's the most easy and confortable to me
why do you need to cheese such a fundamental boss , like , if you can't get better while fighting this boss , you will not be able to get better to the others , its like the first teacher
Fundamental? Do you know what you are saying? On the basic order this boss should be the 5th or 6th big boss and still has only one health bar in area that you are only going early if you need 9th effin flask to fight genichiro. And get this: this doesn't skip encountering the boss later becouse it is reused, so it not even the point of get gut, but rather a big middle finger to fighting a redudant pseudo boss. And really you do not have a reason to go there unless you beat genichiro.
@@kaier6050 well , to me its fundamental , alongside gyoubo , because the two of those are the main ones that taught me how to not spam block and actually wait for the attack to land , and to me you are hurting yourself too much if you skip it and get to genichiro first
Its in an area you have no point in going to if you do not fight genichiro, becouse you get genchiro much earlier.(you only need to kill the ogre, gyobu and bull and it is in area right after bull) Going to this boss early is comparable to going early to the pinwheal boss in DS1, except this is more tanky boss that deosn't show anything new to the player. And as i said the item you are going to after this boss is requierd by game only after genichiro.@@praised_goodness
And like i said you also encounter a better version much later in the game, so no you don't lose the learning expieriance, you just make it less redundant.
