What have you been playing till now Neo 2 Already warmed up. From Azai Nagamasa Since then, the mechanical complexity of the bosses has really come into play. Exercise yourself and move on, this is the way to bring him down.
Just like Saito Yida, this battle combines the elements of monsters and human enemies, which is a good lesson for future development.
Azai Nagamasa tests your convulsive response, your ability to identify how you attack, and how to deal with the grim situation that requires multiple things to be defended at the same time.
However, once you doubt this, like Yoshitatsu, this battle can be fully utilized-unlike Saika Magoichi.
Nioh 2 – How to Beat Azai Nagamasa
At the top of the tower, Azai Nagamasa waits-the sword in his hand. Below is an embedded video showing my first successful run of Nioh 2 blindly. The video shows the overall strategy, but it is not 100% perfect, as I am still testing different ideas and his combo limit.
In the real world, the battle of Azai Nagamasa is very defensive. His wings cover his body, preventing damage from long-range abilities, and it's hard to take an astonishing blow-similar to Nioh 2's Yokai enemy. Nevertheless, you can use Onmyo Magic skills like Sloth Talismans on him.
However, when his wings were retracted, he could easily retaliate, more like a human enemy. If you can use shrapnel bombs or similar ninjutsu tools to make a series of hits unimpeded, Azai burns easily, but gains fickleness.
There are a few main basic melees to pay attention to: he rushes into the air and swoops at you, where he spins into two hits, similar to Karasu Tengu, with one or two variants and three Hit the combo and he can mix them.
For the Grand Slam in the air, you need to dodge or leave as soon as possible. But when he knelt on the ground, kneeling was one of the safest ways to fight.
When you dodge, you need to be ready to rush in again to hit one or two hit points before he can reset.
But don't attack his guard wildly. He will only parry your melee hits and retaliate with an elevated slash. If you do get parryed, the dodge evasion will jump backwards to ensure safety-this is possible.
For most of his melee combos, you need to dodge to the side or diagonally. This way you can fire at him while he is resting. As mentioned before, don't beat his guard greedily, otherwise he will easily parry you.
The melee combos you are looking for are:
- Black and white unstoppable attack at the end of a short-range melee combo. Dodge backwards and to the left to maintain range.
- Single rotating slash. Azai Nagamasa doesn't really get rid of the attack, so if you just stand and plead with him, you will probably avoid this situation. Also, back up to stay on the edge of the range.
- Single slash. Treat like a single rotation
- A combination of rotation and diagonal. Because the range is expanded here, the dodge roll is more suitable than the dash behind.
- Eventually, as he waved his hand with a sword, a combination of three-fencing styles appeared. Its forward range is much longer than other basic combos, so it can definitely be avoided by more lateral movement.
Beyond these attacks, he can lean back and send shock waves like Karasu Tengu-stop it with your primary weapon.
When his patron saint makes a puddle, you need to completely clear the affected area to avoid it. Always hold your toes after performing an air slam.
As for Burst Counters, there are three main things you need to know.
The first is a standard assault attack, which is easy to handle. Here he leaned back and rushed towards half the length of the field. Meet this challenge.
During Yokai's realm, he used another Burst Counter, which he stamped on the floor and then slid forward. You want to stab backstabs after taxiing, so don't prematurely or wait too long. As in the Yokai area, pay special attention to Ki Pulses to ensure you have enough stamina to cope.
.
Finally, the last "burst counter" needs to be processed. First, he summoned a group of Thunder King's electric feathers to fire at you, then swooped through them with an explosion counter.
The best way I tried to keep this is to underline the feathers, so you only need to block one feather with your primary weapon. This way, you can interrupt his explosion counter in the best position as he dives down.
The trick to this fight is to be patient and stick to it. Before Burst Countering his dive, keep up with his offensive pressure and roll under and under yokai feathers.
When he entered Yokai Realm, his border guards dropped, so this was when you stole the extra chips with Ninja Tools and Yokai Abilities to damage it.
As his health column fades away, you can easily use your Yokai Shift to send spam and do it easily.
Defeating this battle will unlock the patron saint of goose, as well as some interesting items.
