Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice - 10 Boss Cheese Methods You Need To Know

2. Lady Butterfly

Lady Butterfly is a fight that punishes you for trying to stick to the same tried and tested methods, so switch things up and absolutely cheese her with one move, and one move only.

All you need to pull this off is the Nightjar Slash, which allows you to dash forward and swipe at the same time. Walk up and take a swing, she’ll block but this is her first and final mistake as it’s at this moment you unleash the Nightjar Slash over and over (and over).

This will build her posture bar to breaking point in less than a minute. If she manages to push you back, then reset, begin the chain again and remind her who’s boss.

In the second phase you need to avoid the spirits at the beginning, which seems worrying at first but all you need to do is circle the arena. When Lady Butterfly turns them into spirit bombs, hide behind a pillar.

So yeah, one move over and over, and standing still. Seems insane when you think about how much trouble she gave you originally, doesn’t it?
