@@Alpha545 thank you for your reply, bro. Finally i have my own answer for trying for 10 times. Actually it's pretty easy as your suggestion. My method is include these steps. 1. Using Dragon Rend, it's kind of give you a 2nd version of yourself. 2. Drinking 4 kind of potions that include resist to shock, fortify health and health regen, resist to magic and fortify one handed weapon (not sure but my Wolf form is still benefitted by one handed weapon skill). 3. Transform, of course. 4. Go for a fight. Please remember keep close to him and use your left hand, of course. Your left hand (or all left hands of our clan) is longer, giving better damage and can throw he unconscous for few seconds. Don't forget that and use your left hand as much as possible (i play on my PC and it's right mouse). After about 1 minutes, and voila, that Ebony Guy is down.

First of all, in your timestamps ungo headless is ako and ako headless is ungo. Second, you could ignore optional minibosses on the path for getting demon bell, and once you got debuff you could kill them. Finally, how was timed your inputs at the beginning of sen'un fight, when he started his quickie attack? Sometimes third L1 can be a block. Also, in seven spear oniwa fight, during bloodsmoke, you accidentally hit the general and then you moved better at his back for the deathblow. Is a very thight window when the player can do that mistake and still be covered in the stealth mode?
@Alpha545Ай бұрын
- It's been corrected, thank you :) - Now that you mention it, I realize the first 'proper' general is optional. I think Ogre can be skipped as well, but that's not intended. It doesn't matter much, but you're right. - I don't know the move well enough, but my primary issue with that move was just how quickly it comes out. I'm fairly sure I kinda lucked through it. If I caught it though, it was mostly just getting the three deflects ASAP. When learning combos I usually have a period where I start learning it and do well, then a period where I suck because I recognize it earlier and so deflect too early, and then I master it and know both how to recognize the move and the timing of it. I'm definitely not through that arc yet with the quick combo :)

Hey I have some questions on your technique on blocking Isshin's One Mind. I have a post of yours bookmarked from 10 months ago that I have used to study how to deal with this move. So I am a deflect and attack only player. I have 350 hours in game and your video really helped But a bizarre problem has emerged So for the last day 3 months I have been practicing the 100% deflect of One Mind from your video and here is the weird problem: I got really good at it to the point I could fully deflect just like in your video about 80% of the time BUT the last month I seem to be getting worse and I honestly don't understand and its one very very specific part of the fight It's the moment he releases the flames. For some reason about 80% of the time I am dying to the flames and I just have no idea why. I am right up in his face when he is winding up One Mind and I always successfully deflect the first two strikes, I then move directly in front of him the moment the flames release to prep for that one single hit he releases the moment the 'orb' of flashing swords starts but something is happening where when I move in to him the flames just keep killing me. I honestly have truly zero clue what does and does not lead to getting wiped out by the flames. Read more The hard part is not long ago the flames were literally not causing a issue.....but now I am at a 20% success rate because of this bizarre situation. So how do you avoid not getting ingulfed by the flames ???

it isn’t mandatory to parry the first too to get the stun at the end, just find a safe spot then parry the whole one mind combo by doing what he’s doing
@Alpha5452 ай бұрын
I'm not entirely sure I understand, but I have some ideas: Being up close to Isshin does not mean you are safe from the fire. The trick is to either position yourself so that after deflecting the wind up slashes Sekiro will end up on a section of the floor that is not on fire, or where you can quickly reposition yourself to safety, or to forgo deflecting the wind-up slashes altogether and use that time to move to a safe spot. That last option is the most reliable. Does that help?

I'm a slave to aeathetics. So i dont bother with gear crafting. All the set and unique pieces look far better. The only crafted armors i like are sylvanite and azurite. But yes, the crafting is broken. What KOA needed was perhaps hard limits on crafting, and the option to improve unique and set armor/weapons further passed the level at which you find them. Could have made a system where you use essence of fate to empower them.

I like those ideas, I think crafting could have been streamlined in general. It feels very messy with all the slightly different parts and effects, not to mention the bug that causes damage buffs to stack in a way that gives you way more damage than you should.

Thank you very much. I was starting to think this might be one I had to give up on. Personally, I had more luck with the upgraded dodge than the roll. Let’s you flash quickly past the mines. Also, if you’re careful and hop up on the pole when you climb to the roof, it gives you a bit more height when you jump for the Talon Strike. After watching your vid for like the 10th time, I realized I was paying too much attention to the falling rock circles, rather than the trap circles. Once I got that into my brain, it became much easier. I didn’t finish it nearly as cleanly as you, but the path you took worked great. Not sure if I ended with 3 or 4 traps triggered, because that one at the end surprised me. Dodged past it and ended the challenge with gold. That’s all that matters.

I think the presence of elf-shot at the start is a bit of a red-herring, making you think that shooting down falling rocks and the like will come into doing this challenge. However, they also allow for this trickery, so I'm glad they're there :)
