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

9. Isshin, The Sword Saint

Well... this is a bit awkward, as it turns out that I was actually using the cheese strat the entire time to beat this potential final boss. After falling foul of the wide and fast lightning attacks and the huge amount of damage that the sword saint outputs I just decided to run in a circle and bait his lunge attack.

Turns out that the world has gone mental for this tactic and it’s now considered THE cheese strat for the boss, all you have to do is keep running in a circle at mid range and wait for him to leap towards you. Wait for the follow up attack, run in and strike him in the back like a real honorable soul until he drops. That’s it. It’s arduous but hell, it works a treat.

Your fingers might get tired and you might get dizzy, but that salty dairy based victory will make it all the better when you spank this spirit back to the afterlife.
