SEKIRO - Shadows Die Twice

[Zangetsu]

Genichiro will be the real challenge.

Yes, but now the fight with Loneshadow Ninja is tough..due to the cramped space and pinning.

 

[Zangetsu]

Genichiro will be the real challenge.

cleared phase 1 & 2 with Genichiro. Phase 3 is difficult.

 

[Desmond]

Phase 3 is easy if you can do the lightning counter.

 

[Zangetsu]

Man this game is huge, though not open-world but there are many areas to discover.

 

[Desmond]

Yeah, fight all the optional bosses.

Thats Juzou The Drunkard.

refer this guide to kill him easily

If you want to save the NPC then don't talk to him. and keep away from him while fighting Juzou. (in my case he died during the fight)

Yeah, he dies within half of the fight. I think I'll peak on the guide a little bit. Honestly, I would have dealt with

Spoiler

the drunkard

sooner or later but there are so many other enemies there that its impossible to focus on him, and I end up thinking I am doing something wrong.

Well, I tried that much more times than I'd like to admit to. But try as I might , If I try to backstab him, other guards get alerted.

 

[Æsoteric Positron]

I was playing dark souls today and it really made me respect how far fromsoft has come, and what it has left behind. Sekiro is very much "fun" than dark souls, though it does borrows many elements (in a good way) from dark souls. It isn't methodical though, and I can't remember EVERY SINGLE enemy and its coordinates, like in dark souls. Still overall its an improvement, and gameplay feels a lot better overall.

PS. A friend not remembering the above bossfight (when I had earlier asked him for help) prompted me to experience dark souls again and make this comparison. He had completed the game watching some playthrough, but really have you truly experienced a fromsoft game if you don't remember EACH and EVERY pain that it inflicts upon you unique experiences it gave you?

You will have to isolate each guard and silent kill them.
Run around the house and they will soon loose you and then you silent kill them one by one leaving the Drunkard alone.
If you try to challenge Drunkard with other guard present then you will get frustrated soon as there are archers present and some guards use High Attack Combos.

Ohk, thanks. I tried to silent kill them tho, maybe I was doing it wrong, cause the miniboss's area of becoming alert is very large, and since most are facing the same way all the guards become alert even if I kill only one by backstabbing. Most probably tho, I am just plain unfamiliar with the stealth mechanics. I will practice more and report again.

If you try to challenge Drunkard with other guard present then you will get frustrated soon as there are archers present and some guards use High Attack Combos.

Yeah, exactly. I can bring him to water area, though I cannot backstab him then, without alerting the guards. The archer is highly annoying though. As some comment the the video you linked said,"the real miniboss is archer".
