LITERALLY AND UNIRONICALLY IMPOSSIBLE

Иди нaхyй.

Did you even play the game?

When I fought her the first time I was very annoyed that she doesn't take damage during her recovery frames. There's no block animation but your swings get blocked anyway.

So don't get hit at all. Believe it or not, deflecting is not all there is to the game. Hold run.

>I was very annoyed that she doesn't take damage during her recovery frames. There's no block animation but your swings get blocked anyway.
She parries you with her fingers. If you attack from the front, and too late. Otherwise she still takes damage during her recoveryframes just fine. And she has a lot of those relatively speaking.

You don't even have to fight this boss. Literally confetti, and start mashing snap pea and shit.

someone is battxept

user, you can perma stunlock this mini boss. Do 2 swings and after that hit with ash, after you run out of ash use firecracker, after you run out of firecracker use snap seed and he is dead.

Swing > Swing >item

repeat and he is locked forever

>She parries you with her fingers.
How? There's no parry sound, it makes the exact same sound and animation as if you hit her but takes no damage.

>he

did you ?
he's right. posture doesn't break if you parry. it will fill up but not break.

firecrackers, ash, snapseed
there she is stunlocked for fucking years

you are hitting her left hand, wich has sacred necklaces on it and basically negate damages. you can see that when she doesnt take damages it's always because she "blocks" with that hand

Play this fight like Bloodborne instead of Sekiro and you'll get through it just fine.

So is there a trick to beating Headless other than just always having Pacifying Agent and Divine Confetti and getting perfect parries?

Twice, finished yesterday NG+ in a Shura ending

Your posture fills up with deflects but never breaks unless you get hit or block instead of parrying

git gud

I did it second try wothout confetti. Git gud fagit.

Nope. That's it. Headless are pure antifun so don't even bother.

you don't need confetti.

>run away
>she does the running attack
>roll through it
>hit her
>repeat
don't even need snapseed or fireworks desu

posture recovers a lot faster while blocking you cunt

fucking wasted 80 bucks on this pos. stopped playing after 2 hours because of difficulty. I get the appeal but after busting my ass at work I want to go home and relax, i don't want to stare at loading screens over and over and rage. "difficult" games are for neets who need a heavy dose of a sense of accomplishment.

Nibba come on i work crazy hours and i still manage to play sekiro. This form of monk is bullshit though since it barely takes any damage

He seems to behave very differently if you parry all his attacks. I ran and dodged lot when I fought him, and usually he was chasing me all around the field and doing tons of dashing attacks / sword lunges at me

I think its distance based. At mid-range she does more single hit moves to catch up with you giving you more openings.

Why does he look like a weird turtle-man?

I couldn't get passed his first phase, and I wasn't motivated to learn the fight because my main motivator in these games is wanting to explore the next area, but this makes me want to try again. This phase looks fun. Is the third phase still mainly the spear?

ATTENTION
DON'T SPEND XP ON ATTACK POWER IT SOFTCAPS AT AROUND 30 YOU CAN JUST USE MEMORIES ANYWAY
JUST SAVE YOUR POINTS FOR THE INEVITABLE DLC SKILL TREE(S)
THAT IS ALL

The third phase is the same as that spear phase, but he has added lightning attacks that you can reflect back at him.
You will probably not have a "fun" time if you couldn't get past his first phase, unless you put a lot of practice in. His spear phase is like 3 times harder than the sword phase

OP - equip firecracker and ASH, spam 2-3 hits then firecracker or ash, done

I can't remember where to open the shortcut after the ogre, in the building where you find the monocular

Perfect parries still increase your posture gauge. Just not as much, enough hits in a row will still break you. In NG this boss can't do that if you're not already partially built up, but still, it is possible.

the purple shield upgrade

Snap seeds stun him

>Perfect parries still increase your posture gauge.
To 99.9% max, yes.
>enough hits in a row will still break you
Wrong.

>him

if you hold guard your posture recovers faster, this is what you do inbetween combos. Also I never tried breaking his posture because it recovers too fast so I'd advise chipping away at his health (never hit him more than twice per trade). Also firecrackers work on him although I never used it. It's basically an endurance test on "have you learnt to deflect yet".

I didn't spend much time on it. As I said I wasn't motivated. I had explored everywhere I could find, had all the carp scales, all the non-lazulite upgrades, that kind of stuff. I liked fighting the two Seven Ashina Spears mini-bosses though, they were fun and Isshun's spear phase also looks fun.

Go through Headless in the mountains. You don't have to actually jump down and fight him just walk through the cave to the other end.

Wish I knew that earlier spent 25 points on them now grinding the rest of the points for skill trees is gonna be a pain

Malcontent

Just use Malcontent to stun them, then beat them to death with Divine Confetti. It's cheesy, but FUCK HEADLESS and FUCK TERROR.

Not that user but spear timings that aren't thrust attacks in this game fuck with my head so much.
Did you notice the redirect being wonky on Sword Saint phase 3? I had multiple times where I jumped and hit RB and I'd just flop back to the ground and get SHOCK then the next time I'd do, as far as I could tell, the exact same thing (jump + rb) and it'd work just fine. Only noticed this vs Sword Saint.

It's because unlike Genichiro Mk. II, the Divine Dragon, or those lightning dogs in Fountainhead, you're not fighting him on flat terrain. You probably jumped back or got got pushed back and up an incline by the initial strike and hit the ground sooner than you expected. Happened to me a few times.

I just sprinted around a lot and came in for a couple quick hits when it finished some move set

I always hear that she's a weak boss. When do people fight her? Doing her at 2att feels so fucking slow.

>How?
She visually pushes down your blade and stops it with her fingers. There is no sound because she isn't being cut and no weapon/object is blocking your weapon.

Make sure you get in lots of practice or you're going to have a bad time when you have to fight it again.

Дa.

no, you cannot be broken as long as you perfect parry, no matter how high your posture is

>loading screens
you should focus a little harder on work and buy a pc. my load times are in the ms

it makes a different sound and you can see her holding her hand out when she blocks

I'm having the same experience, he's just a tanky bastard. I'm just going to fight other bosses first and boost my attack.

imagine sucking so hard at this game that you have to abuse items to beat one of the easiest bosses in the game

Yeah he would always get me with this one because I try to block deflect everything. Either the first hit somehow clips me in the back because I was swinging at him right when his combo started and now all the hits are hitting me in the back and I cannot do anything but dodge away or get hit more (I usually try to parry), or I fuck up getting a deflect on one of the final 2 hits before the thrust and it breaks my posture (those particular hits seem to be designed to break your posture in how much posture damage they do)

Mibu village is her obligatory encounter
There's a second encounter with the real one instead of her summon depending of your ending

The shinobi door that takes you to the demon bell? You can't actually go anywhere else in Senpou temple from there I don't think but at least you can ring the bell early

no

"No" what? That's not the shortcut near the first headless that you find right after fighting Chained Ogre? Pretty sure it is

Yeah I watched someone do a speedrun too, you're boring and suck at the game.

>using items for their intended purpose
>abuse
>sucking

That is also there but it's not that. there's another cave exit that goes back outside and wraps around to that locked door

Why was false corrupted monk such a bitch to firecracker anyway. Even the bull/ape wasn’t a complete bitch to fire cracker and has period of cool down before they get stun by firecracker again. It was just a ghost projection, lmao just turn off your audio feedback stupid prietess

Stop posting and actually play the game. Purchase a copy, install it and play the game. Stop watching your favourite streamer and actually learn how the game works. If the former doesn't apply to you, then please get good at the game then come back, lurk this place for a good three or so years and then consider whether what you are about to post is actually true/useful before you submit it.

Show me a webm of you performing a parry against Corrupted Monk or Owl when your posture bar is full and not getting posture-broken. Otherwise you're full of shit. Some attacks just do posture damage even when parried.

I don't think I was ever even hit by a chicken

they do posture damage.
However, posture cannot be broken if you perfect parry. This isn't a difficult concept. It says this fact in the loading hints.

>Performing successful deflects can fill your posture bar to full, but it never breaks your posture.
sekiroshadowsdietwice.wiki.fextralife.com/Posture

Literally one of the easiest bosses in the game. Just a simple stamina test.

>a boss that can be beat without it LITERALLY not making one single attack
>hard
Jesus Christ. Better stop now, because every boss after her will just rape you into oblivion.

I don't know why this boss gave me so much trouble, but I really enjoy bullying her with firecrackers and snap seeds

>Make a .webm for me or else you're wrong
Did you wait a full hour and a quarter to post this hoping I wouldn't be here to respond? You retard.

wut.

I rage quite sekiro at the Owl fight, but even I beat this bitch in one go.

So what's up with this boss and the real one later on?

I thought initially I needed confetti to damage the first monk, be she actually has some sort of shield on her left hand made of cloth or some shit she uses to block your attacks. So your attacks only do damage some of the time, can anyone else confirm this?

i mean yeah she blocks some attacks just like any enemy in the game. Why is this hard for people to understand for this boss in particular? Literally every boss in the game blocks your attacks if you just try to spam attack

They're prayer beads, and yes, she uses them to deflect.

Monk actually blocks less than most bosses since she's constantly attacking. I don't know why people think it's weird when she does.

I played and beat the game. I parried all of Owl's combo and still got posture broken. I didn't see that particular loading screen hint, if it does exist then it's wrong.

>quoting fextralife
lol

>can't support his claim with evidence so he resorts to name-calling
based

Where is YOUR evidence? You are the only one claiming that this is the case.

Because its not the same sort of block. Its an armor block such as robert and armored ogres where you still deal posture damage but no health. Its also not at all clear why some attacls from the front hit and why some don't at first.

I wonder why they gave the second monk a third health bar if they just let you hide in a tree and jump attack her at the beginning of the second phase

the absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence

I skipped the first 2 bars so that's a valid reason to give her 3

It's literally a game mechanic. I don't know what to tell you. Maybe the fact that everyone else in here including the wiki including the game itself says that you're wrong should be a hint that you're wrong.

>maybe if I lean in they'll believe that I was trolling this whole time
Embarrassing.

I don't know any enemy where you can deal health damage when they block. I haven't encountered one yet at least

Eat candy

Maybe you should have beat the game with demon bell and actually parry bosses. Look up any late game boss fight with demon bell on youtube, especially isshin. You can see moment that posture bar is filled but posture isn’t broken on a deflect

How do you skip the first bar?

Same as the second, just gotta be fast

im starting to recognize this faggot
you recently beat genichiro didn't you
you dirty vatnik casul

I hate this...thing. The wind ups are slow but the attacks are quick and for some reason I can’t get the timing down. I’m just not gud enough I guess....
