For anyone having a hard time with Taro, there is a rock towards the left that you can jump on, once you do he won't be able to attack you and you can just use arrows to kill. As soon as the fight start head to the left you will see a rock you will have to jump on some bushes to make your way up there once you do, taro won't hit you Hope this helps

He is a handful. My advice is look at the one thing he's getting you with the most, then study how I'm avoiding that in the video, and then make it your goal just to be able to do that. Usually there's one or two things that make a boss frustrating, and once you nail those you end up beating them easily. Good luck!

I found a glitch while fighting with him, and it might help you if you are struggling on Master difficulty. Let him grab you near the barrier that is surrounding boss fight area - he will throw you out of the barrier, but the fight won't end. He will start jumping on the barrier, allowing you to keep shooting him from the bow.

It wouldn't be so bad if everything worked like it should. The camera has a mind of its own, targetting and locking on is really buggy, parrying is almost impossible to time properly from one fight to the next, and the dodge roll picks a direction at random even if you're aiming in a specific direction that usually results in colliding directly with the enemy's weapon. Even basic attacks inexplicably miss sometimes even though you're right in an enemy's face. It's very frustrating. I love a good challenge, but it needs to be a fair challenge. Having to contend with poor design and unstable mechanics isn't a fair challenge. I'm definitely glad I didn't buy this game.
@TheAntRanch Жыл бұрын
I'll admit, the Master+ seems to have updated the combat. There is now a PHASE 3! I can't seem to figure out the trick, yet. Some time in phase 2, not sure of the trigger, Taro explodes and catches fire. He has a new jump attack where he spams the arena with fireballs. I beat him the first time around on hard, now on master... it's not easy. Getting the pattern from folks like FuzzyBararian made it a matter of practice, now I'm a bit mystified. I have tried to hold off triggering the rot on his shoulder weak point, as it can be used to stun him ... just let the little blighters bother him until he is stunned. I can only take 3 hits at this difficulty, so it's hard to have enough up time to find the pattern on P3... Suggestion?

Same. I try to line up a slow motion arrow shot when he runs at you for the grab attack, but every time i wind up an arrow only to have nothing fire. I know I have arrows, but in my panic I must be letting go of L2 instead of R2. Sure enough no arrow is fired, I get grabbed, and die. Mind you I am playing on NORMAL. This game is the most difficult NORMAL mode I have ever played. I even gave in and went down to story mode to get past this fight, but I felt cheap for doing it, so I reloaded an old NORMAL save file and played my way back to this fight. 😅

@@sapphic_sleeper Don't despair, a lot of people find this boss fight extremely difficult. My advice is take it one step at a time - literally. Find the one thing he keeps getting you with the most, and check my vid to see how I avoid that, then practice trying to avoid just that one thing (without worrying about beating him). Usually there's one or two major sticking points in a boss fight and once you are good with avoiding them, the rest might just fall into place. And if not, there's only ever one or two more to learn to avoid before the rest become easy thanks to the practice of getting good at those one or two things. Also, after 40+ attempts, I can guarantee when you beat him you'll probably scream out in happiness it'll be such a good feeling. 😉

Nah mate, this is master. Nothing has changed about Corrupt Taro at all since release, with the exception that patch 1.16 fixed a bug. Patch 2.0 introduced slight modifications to bosses in NG+ a year after this video was made to make them 'slightly' more challenging and a bit more aggressive. You might be in NG+ is my guess. But NG and NG+ movesets are the same either way, so if you can no damage in NG, you can no damage in NG+ without changing a thing. I just make master look easy in this video because I never get hit. That's because I've no hit run this game many, many times and know it like the back of my hand...
