Combat and strategy
Mostly close-range attacks. In the fight, watch for its blue-light attack (a parry triggers Ghost Step) and its red-light attack (unblockable — dodge on time). Emptying its Sha-Chi gauge breaks its guard and raises the damage it takes. Crouch into stealth behind it to trigger an execution; two mobs standing close together can be executed in sequence; dropping onto it from above while out of combat also triggers one. It can also be executed at very low health, and Soul is invincible for the whole animation.
