Yeah, if you eavesdrop enemies in the game, you get a lot of tips. It kind of takes the place of the “messages.” I’ve been exploring a lot, so I’m only missing the last two tools.
By the way, I beat the Ashina Elite guy. He is so damn fast that even with the umbrella... I used four healing gourds and nearly had to revive because he hit me coming out of a block after I took my umbrella down. He might be the fastest boss I’ve ever fought. I’ve died the most to him now, mostly because he can instakill you if you revive close to him.
The samurai in the tower are great practice by the way. Probably better than the useless dummy guy. I’ve been trying to get parrying down in-between offensive strikes. It’s tough, but if you can manage to parry after a swing, you can back off and wait for their retaliation and get another deflection almost immediately. And then you can get in their face and attack and block their next few strikes until they become posture broken.
Sadly, this tactic is less effective against bosses. They still fuck your face like a gloryhole.
