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

10. Gyoubu Oniwa

We begin this list with the first major boss of the game Gyoubu Oniwa who charges out to battle astride his monstrous horse Onikage to meet our one armed wolf on the field of battle. For many his speed, size and erratic swipes might be too much and trust me, this boss preys on panic. So why not turn this monstrous mare into a My Little Pony with these two tips?

Invest in the following: The grapple followup attack, and the shinobi firecrackers, which you can pick up from the nearby vendor.

Both of these will neuter the bosses two main strengths; distance and speed. Use the firecrackers to make the horse rear up which can help close the distance or land a few attacks, and make use of the grapple attack just before you reach the boss to help build a stagger meter which will leave Gyoubu open for more punishment.

With both of these tactics you will never have to worry about deflecting as if he does ride past you just hold block and weather the storm. Rinse and repeat and you’ll be sending this stallion to the stables.
