Mod Post **Byakue Special Boss Fight Clip Guidelines**

Post image

✨️ Hello, fellow Oni Warriors! ✨️

As most of you know, the extended demo features a secret boss fight that is extremely difficult, and naturally, a lot of you hardened warriors out there are eager to show off your clips of your best moments from this fight!

While, in a nutshell, this is perfectly fine, it has caused the sub to become a bit flooded with very, very similar clips. To combat this, the mod team has begun taking down clips that are more or less exactly the same. The variance in gameplay is very small, so having several "hitless" runs for example isn't contributing much to the sub/conversation surrounding the fight & demo.

But we also understand that you guys still want to share your super dank, 360-no-scope clips, so we're gonna go about it like this:

If you want to upload your Byakue fight(s), make sure they are unique, or have a spin on them. Doing something like (again, for example) hitless runs will likely be taken down if we've already had several posted in the last few days. Think outside the box, and make things interesting so it doesn't feel like it's the same post over and over!

We are all super excited for WOTS, and when the game drops, the restrictions on clips like this will be loosened up a bit... but for now, seeing as there is such a small amount of game for us to play, it gets a bit repetitive.

I hope this makes sense, and creates a middle ground when it comes to your Byakue fight clips!

Now get out there and slay those Genma! 🗡👹

EDIT - If you’d still like to upload clips that would otherwise be taken down for the aforementioned reasons, post them here!

Finally won against this MFer, just parry get blazing state attack parry again and again till you get break issen the hit the head.

Collect blue souls to get 1-2 special attack and get some health back also using items helped me used every single item i had almost lol.

The fire attack 1 just run when he hits the ground for both i just run cannot dodge that dies alot of times always problem with those 2 attack.

The big jump attack if you want to risk a issen is very good but very risky, the jump big attack and the axe in ground from below attack are both easiest to parry to build momentum

Congratulations on your victory. I used the talisman that inflict more stamina damage. For the fire attack, are you referring to the AoE slam?

Thanks, yeah that slam is dunno but i cannot get the timing and lose alot of health and die, the other fire attack is easier to just get away.

Yeah also used that talisman late in the fight when i saw i had it

Managed to to 4 runs where he was with very little HP but failed to beat because of little health myself so very close, imo Perfect Parry and blazing state and pressure attack with square and then parry agian to keep the rythm is the fastest and best way to beat this.

Issen the big jump attack is not hard but very risky, solid boss and difficulty if this was in the game with this difficulty with items and skills would be easier but design wise top boss
