Ghost Of Tsushima: 12 Tips & Tricks The Game Doesn't Tell You

2. You Can Cut THROUGH Orange "Unblockable" Icons

I only recommend this against the bigger, slower enemies when they're on low enough health that another hit or two will kill them, but an orange attack can be cut right through if your timing is right.

Upgraded towards the back half of the game, Jin is practically superheroic, but even in Act 1 if you've whittled an enemy's health down to red and they're coming at you with an orange icon attack, dive in and finish them off first.

Nothing feels cooler than downing a lumbering oaf with a gigantic mace because you're that much faster, and it beats waiting for an opening if you can speed things along instead.
