Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice - Ranking Every Boss From Easiest To Hardest
5. Great Shinobi Owl
As it made clear in the opening of Sekiro, your father, The Great Shinobi Owl, adopted the young wolf after finding him scavenging on a battlefield and taught him everything he needed to know in order to protect his Lord.
As a result you can imagine that fighting him is not going to be easy, in part thanks to a huge arsenal of moves and a ton of ninja trickery. For a start he isn’t afraid to throw multiple ranged weapons in order to chip away at your health, and even implements anti-healing grenades which will block you from using recovery items for a short while.
The one trick I can recommend is that whenever he’s setting up to use his firecrackers or anti-healing orb, he leaves himself open the longest, so get behind him and unleash a flurry of attacks. Just make sure to create space in his second form as he can now disappear every once in a while.
It’s a challenging fight, an emotional one, but a fantastic learning process.
