Combat & Strategy
It fights at close range first and foremost. In combat, watch for its blue-light attacks (a parry triggers Ghost Step) and its red-light attacks (impossible to block — they demand a precise dodge); emptying its Sha-Chi gauge breaks its guard and increases the damage it takes. Crouch and sneak up behind it to trigger an execution; when two mobs are standing close together you can chain executions; dropping onto it from above while it is still out of combat also triggers one. It can likewise be executed when its health is extremely low, and Soul is invulnerable throughout the execution.
