Do not pursue Lu Bu!

Except Lu Bu pursued after me the entire battle even when i ran base to base looking for meat buns.
I still cannot beat him.

dont worry, youll git gut eventually, I beat em on Hero mode but pretty much the combat is similar to Wo-long. So, I have alot of experience with this kinda combat.

Yeah, i had fun up until he appeared when i was at low health and had no healing items and he utterly destroyed me, his move set is just too much.

I wouldn't mind if you were scripted to lose, or run away, but no just makes me worry about how this game is going to be balanced in the final. I play DW for fun, not for dark souls.

Yeah, it's quite different from the previous DW where you just mash buttons.

It sucks when he can just chokeslam you until you're 1 HP and then flail around some more until he somehow hits you.

nonsense, pursue him

It's quite easy once you learn his moves. Just dodge or parry his attacks and he's dead eventually.

Additionally, on Historian and Wayfarer difficulties you won't be punished for blocking (on Hero it drains Bravery, like Wo Long) while Perfect Evades grant Bravery, so you don't necessarily need to take the risk of parrying.

It was annoying and a joy killer, and mind you don't give me the git gut. I already beat the hardest games ever made. The fact that you cannot run from him and they drop him on you when you are already wasted is a mess considering you gotta beat him. Makes me think they made the game without testing it.

Other than that, amazing game! I just play it on easy to avoid stress. Is not like dynasty warriors is about a challenge but a power fantasy either way. Just upset the difficulty spike is poorly made.

The producer has clarified that he's just for the demo and, as was the case for players of the TGS demo who somehow got only a B Rank or lower, he will NOT appear in the full game version of Battle of Sishui Gate.

He'll just appear one stage later at Hulao Gate instead. 😂😂

To be fair, if they stay tru to the cause, you can avoid him there.

bro he was kicking my ass but when i stopped trying to parry/deflect his attacks i no hit his fight and won. basically just dodge but dont spam dodge obviously look out for his attacks and dodge perfectly than get a combo out. iv been able to deflect his attacks on previous attempts but the thing is he does so much damage even on wayfarer difficulty that if u miss ur fked so instead i just dodged everything and the fight went from me getting fked over 20 times trying to deflect his attacks to defeating him with no hits taken when dodging everything

I might try this then. On easy I can beat him using parrying and dodging, but on normal it really does seem like parrying just doesn't work most of the time... no idea why? Still not sure also when he glows red and it tells you to press R1+O, on normal difficulty this does f***all, where as on easy it does what it says it'll do, and knocks him back.

it does knock him. it is a bit finicky tho. iv seen only one attack that i was able to knock consitently and its the one where he flies up and comes charging at u from top after he lands u can do that and break his guard but be quick and dont miss because he does another attack right after.

He's literally impossible
