Has anyone beaten Rin yet in Daidoji story mode

[PortalDiver]

What the title says, has anyone yet beaten Rin at the end of Daidoji story mode? She's the last one I need to finish up for the Hanzō Academy.

[Lavian]

Just run around a lot and make good use of your breach arts.

[PortalDiver]

Yea, but one Rin starts hitting you with her combo's it's game over man

[Lavian]

You might want to spend some time grinding, but yeah. Rin is pretty much a top tier character while Daidoji is just... decent.

I think I tended to bait out Rin's breach arts and countered with my own followed by an aerial rave combo to get through that. It's been a while though.

I should also mention that Daidoji vs Rin is literally the hardest battle in the game, so uh... yeah.

Protect you everytime and made your ninjutsu(LB+X) in counter attack during she does her combos on you. This is the way I have beaten Rin. It was almost a perfect match.

Sorry for my poor english.

[lezz colonel]

i'm not the best at dodging or blocking, but i didn't have too much trouble with her?

[Saturn]

i keep getting wrecked by her too

[FauxFurry]

Fittingly Daidoji's final opponent is a true 'Final Exam Boss'. Making good use of defense, ideally parries,follwed by one's own combos (quick launching combos wear down clothing durability/defense fairly quickly plus it opens up opportunities for aerial raves)which can be linked into Hidden Ninpo will allow you to beat her without taking much damge in return.
Jumping heavy attacks delivered as a counter to her breach attacks could help make a dent in her HP if perfect guards aren't something that you feel comfortable with just yet.

I beat her without grinding and only with the lvl ups from the previous fights. Sure, it took longer and got only a B rank in the end, but it wasnt that difficult. Just make sure, to not get trapped in her combos for too long.

Based on my previous experience with the PS Vita version:
It's about timing. While Rin flash stepping from one spot to another gives the visual illusion that she's untouchable, in reality her hitbox is still there.

Once you start learning to judge the distance correctly based on her appearance between flash steps, you can start charging your Breach Art, then have it execute in her face at full charge before she can do any real damage to you, even if you take 2 or 3 hits. Easy A rank.

[PortalDiver]

Still, Rin is tough to beat. Im thinking of holding off on her until I level up Daidoji a lot more

[Harem Route]

This battle is such a bs -_-
Grinding your way through it is probably the best solution. I think I got her at lvl 27, but that involved a ton of blocking, parrying and luck (as in - don't get caught in her arts). And as FauxFurry said before, jumping heavy attacks also help a lot.

[KOS-MOS]

i did, it wasnt that hard, just stand there and hold guard, bait her to attack u and when she does, dodge and Ninpo her with Senran Tiger Fist.

[Ponii-chan]

The best strategy, as mentioned before, is to immediately go into Frantic and hold block. Wait for Rin to attack you and when she stops her combo, you hit her a few times and go back to blocking. When she transforms, continue with this strategy, but use Ninja Arts instead of just attacking. Just make sure that you won't waste your NA, wait for her to be close in front of you and just after finishing her combo.

[Ashandre]

Just block, counter, win. :/ I got it first try, no grinding on dai at all.

[khermerker]

ok as other has tought....yup is all about block and block...and well when you see you can hit...do all full combo...and beware cause she will skip combo and try hit you...the problem if you are put in air prepare to use down arrow on controler. took me a lot of time to fight her but thanks to that i noticed the game problems...first movie screw your combos, second fast chars are better than slow tanky chars. and last spam of high skills is game breaker....try first get downt to shinobi transform without use yours...and use levels up for that....so i dont suggest you level too much...(each time you level you full hp) then after she transform prepare for transform too and when do is bloch...wait do special and repeat... after a time will go down.
