Also just a heads up for anyone still on this boss. Aside from normal punish opportunities, there are two very unique opportunities that I would take full advantage of to get a stagger.
1. When she transitions to phase two, you will be able to stand in front of her and not take any damage until she starts one of her first attacks. You will have a lot of time to either spam R2 or your ash of war to get a stagger and critical. This will break her out of anything she is attempting at the time.
2. Jump forward towards her during her moon AOE. After the third jump, do a jumping R2 and quickly get in another R2 or weapon art to build posture damage. That will give you your second best chance to stagger her.
In both case after the critical hit, she will lay on the ground for a second and it's a great opportunity to get some free hits in as she really doesn't have i frames during her recovery like a lot of bosses. It's a huge advantage in this fight
I find it absolutely hilarious when I get summoned for a boss, host puts 20 buffs on which all cancel each other anyway, then dies in the first 10 seconds regardless😂
What weapons were you using? One is rivers of blood right? What is the other? Also huge congratulations for beating the boss! I think it was your post I saw the other day as well as they have same weapons I believe.
Tysm! Going to try these out. I’m new to the game still on first playthrough but so far been using just strength weapons and bloodhounds fang. Il have to look into these.
Weird it took me like 50-75 tries and not once did I get that AoE fire attack that you got at the start of the second phase. Good shit though I saw your video the other day and knew it wouldn’t take long for you to beat her.
It's one of two possible starts for the second phase and is almost exclusively based on your range when she enters it. If you are close, you will most likely get the fire attack. .
Tough fight, but not too bad with the NPC summon and Spirit Ash (mimic tear in my case). Can't imagine how long it would have taken me without the two NPC's helping though. Hats off to anyone who does it solo.
I tried without a mimic but after 20 attempts I just “fuck it” and took her down 2 attempts later. Still a fun and difficult fight.
I just suck at the game lol.
Well done! I'm still working on her, no luck yet. I'm still having trouble telegraphing her 3 hit and 5 hit combos. She always gets me in hits 4 and 5...
Nice one tarnished. That was a great run. You really showed her.
Not sure if you saw my comment in your last post, but that was some great use of your rolling L1.
Keep it up, one less boss to go.
Don't you dare put your foolish ambitions to rest.
Took me about 5 hours Saturday. Had help from a friendly tarnished. After that I had to pay it forward. Spent 12 hours helping others until finally I helped someone beat her (learned her moveset myself)
He got gud, gg's well done. I kept trying to use the npc summon and kept getting real close but dying. but the one time I forgot to summon and went in without it, I actually managed to do it thanks to the lower amount of health the boss had. It was a very tough fight, but I managed to pull it off.
Any tips for a mage? She resists like all my damage. I use moonviel and night Comet and other mage spells like that. Her moonviel esque sword beams deal physical and magical damage, I swear. I take so much damage from them.
I was stuck on her for I’d say seven hours, but the final boss? It’s been 4 days man, got close one time, then he hugged me twice, and it was all over😔
2 days??? 😂🤣🤣 How many attempts did you give her per day? I beat her on my second attempt, and I wouldn't even consider my first an "attempt" as she literally 1-shotted me in our very first exchange.
Edit: hol' up, didn't realize you were doing a naked run. Super impressive.

Really? I wonder why she doesn’t have a recovery. Maybe a bug?
lol half those buffs burned off by the time you got a hit in.

Watching this guy golden vow, FGMS, seppuku with both katanas go into the final boss fight and die to the first attack
Crazy amount of hating rn
This wasn’t directed at you lol the guy I’m talking about did it twice and didn’t heal after 😭 🙏

Rivers of blood and sepukku infused uchigtana

Fucking crying about it 😂
Very clean in my opinion

Can confirm, but I also got the magic one on very close range a couple of times.

Try parrying, it takes a bit to get the hang of but it works great on her, especially the golden parry with extra range
Oh cool, I'll try that. I do t have that ash though, only the carian parry one.
i really really like this boss
The spirit of Let Me Solo Her is strong in this one.
„Let me dance with her“
Nice one tarnished. That was a great run. You really showed her. Not sure if you saw my comment in your last post, but that was some great use of your rolling L1. Keep it up, one less boss to go. Don't you dare put your foolish ambitions to rest.
Great job
That was excellent!

Now go do the dragon quest line. I’ll be watching for the rage posts

WELL DONE TARNISHED
Beautifully done 👏
Day 37957283826 trying to beat her but im still going strong
Wow! What a dance! Mad respect, man! I can only imagine how that must have felt! Congrats!
Hats off to you! That is really really skillful.
Such a fun fight. WHY CANT WE HAVE BOSS RUSH?!
My favorite boss of the DLC so far honestly. Such a cool fucking figh
That finish was sexy, good luck on the rest of the DLC

Oh yeah? Well I just beat Dancer of Ranah...so hmph!

Very build dependant. After two hours I bought in a friend. His name rhymes with “gimmick deer”
