Generally the hardest boss?

[The Perciprical]

Since I just achieved the "all bosses" achievement, and struggle to understand how even longtime players struggle with Isshin as a boss, who's actually the most difficult (based on experience)
I have only 100+ hours in the game.

Made it further and I beat Seven Spears, Centipede x2, Armored Warrior, the monkeys, Snake Eyes x2, and just beat Guardian Ape. Then I went to Ashina Depths because that was where I had the least idols......and I immediately found him again. It spoofed me into a double boss already now here's another one. My brother tells me there's two of them this time. I want to die twice

Isshin Ashina, Demon of Hatred, Snake Eyes, Inner Genichiro and of course Emma the Sword Saint...wait what...?

For me? Chained ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Ogre. ♥♥♥♥ this guy.

The snake eye boss in the gunfort is weak to poison likely loses around 40-45% health overtime+during posion stun you can get a few free hits in.

Wait 20 seconds then re poison her+few free hits during stun.

And do it two more times for phase 2.
Poison deals % dmg so still work for NG+ too.




Chained ogre time.

IF you are having trouble.

Stealth sugar and stealth blow first bar or aggro him and run away and stealth blow.
For castle one jump stealth blow first bar.


Do NOT use oil.

Use Any fire version flame vent(NOT charged up) and he is "scared" get free hits in once "fire scared" animation is over flame vent again and he is in "burning animation" get free hits in.

He can/will get stunned by many hits in fast succession(must be done within 7 seconds) in that case get free hits in.

If "normal stun" happens after scare then only flame vent after stun anim is over for the burn stun.
So basically you have 3 pain animation to work with.

Run around wait for fire dot to end then rescare him then reburn.
You can use+attack dmg sugar.


Free hits mean the enemy is unable to punish you so you can get 100% safe attacks you need to learn how many you can get in.

Chain ogre has a few moves where he does not go into"pain"animation you need to learn them.

Fire umbrella can block his grab attacks if needed for NG+.

Not to be that person, but from my experience any umbrella can block his grabs

Just unlock all three of the main gauntlets and complete them. It's challenging that that will get you the achievement, assuming every other main boss had been done.

[The Perciprical]

For me, generally the hardest boss was Demon of Hatred. First time playing through, cheesed him. And generally now am able to do great on him 1 out of every few other tries. I'm actually able to beat him fully all three phases now but its still the most difficult assuming because I die to him the most, even if I'm focused.

Try a kuro's charm run and see how Isshin will absolutely ♥♥♥♥

Just beat Great Shinobi Owl first try. Easiest boss in the game so far by a long shot

you call it hard? don't make me laugh

[Alexoferith]

In my opinion, none of the bosses is hard in the normal difficulty of the game. But when you play the game without Kuro's Charm, O'rin is the hardest for me. That is because my success rate in executing perfect parry/deflect is around 70% to 80%, 90% on a good day. I always die because I run out of healing stuff. I understand that my state of mind is also a major factor, plus ego as I don't use the umbrella at all. Using the umbrella may be better, but, sigh... ego, and hesitation can really kill in this game... lol

[Saltzpyre 2 Is Out]

I think my personal nemesis is probably bad end isshin, mostly because he kind of demands you use the flame umbrella with his sneaky fire step ichimonji attack. Owl isn't hard, hes just a garbage HP sponge, once you get him below like 70% he will actually take lasting posture damage. Owl Father is tight though no lie, absolutely love that boss. Inner Isshin is peak, the new attacks and mixups he gets are sick.
