I just got to Shiori... Now how the hang am I supposed to do any damage to her? >: I know I have to look away and dodge her poison, but I can rarely hit a thousand on her before I manage to mess up.
I take it you're not playing warrior. -Stay close to her. It's easier to dodge high-angle poison attacks than low-angle ones. -Have 1 point in a debuff remover. Doesn't matter what the skill actually does. You just want to remove one poison debuff in case you get hit once. You get hit more than once, you're as good as dead anyway. -Get all of your stun/freeze skills. -Use normal attacks in between stuns/freezes. -Do not stack any defense/health skills if you can help it. If you get hit, you're as good as dead anyway, because the poison is ridiculous.
If you still can't get it, you might need to -Use your all of your potions and the All Stats buff. -Upgrade your equipment. -Keep trying.
I don't usually chime in to help with strategy - but she is indeed one of the hardest bosses in the game.
I just wanted to confirm that she is working as intended. There IS a way to kill her, and it does not require any special ability, stats, items, or anything like that.
The secret is actually hinted to you in two of the cutscenes in the Fallen Village. That's all I can say...
Has no one found this yet? Because he states clearly, no speicial ability, stats, items, or anything like that. Yet everyone is trying to grind their way through.
Ummm. I think whatever priest comes with for 2. First platform. Man. Wish I had a screenshot. When you first go into the section she is in just stop and spam 2. Get me a screenshot and I can help more.
