Now your Sai will be charged, which will come in handy for the next phase.Ĥ0 - 10%: The 'I have won this' Bullsh*t and the Third Vehicle Toss You know this attack, just block it twice and chop it in Blade mode. Now the next phase starts.Ĥ0%: Wheel of Destruction (Because it sounds a lot cooler than 'Lorentz Force') Before he jumps, change your Pincer to the Sai. Repeat this whole tactic once more and he should be at 40% right now: he'll be glowing purple again but will not attack. Just remember to change to the Pincer after using it!ĭoing this will make sure that he doesn't use his regular attacks during this entire phase. Thanks, again, to yuri03042 for this tactic. That way, your Sai will be charged when he hits ground, and you can stun him easier. If you can't hit Monsoon with the EMPs, another good tactic is to change to the Sai before he starts throwing vehicles.

This should drop his health at around 50% and will force him to retreat to the roof and start throwing vehicles again. As soon as he starts rejointing himself release the attack. Quickly run to it and slash him 2-3 times, and then charge your Pincer. Now, when Monsoon drops down he'll still be glowing purple: Throw a EMP grenade to stun him, run up close and chop his head in Blade mode. It will increase your BP which you need for your S ranking, and also give you at least one EMP grenade if you don't have any. Remember, though, to pick up the things that these drop. Now Monsoon should be smoking purple, jump to the roof and start throwing both tanks and choppers at you in two waves. Still, it's a good practice since this move will come very in handy later in the game.Ħ0 - 40%: First and Second Vehicle Tosses However, it's harder to use and more risky, leaving you exposed if he starts a combo instead of a singe attack. It will give you invincibility frames and attack Monsoon at the same time, should he use his Smoke Bomb or Dive attack on you. Just keep attacking him with your sword until he reaches the next phase.Īs pointed out by yuri03042, another great move to use is the Defensive Dodge (done by pressing + ).

Once you drop his health at around 70% (which will be after 4-5 repetitions of the 'hit and run' tactic) he'll get dizzy. Now Monsoon will be chasing you again, and you should repeat the same tactic. You can attack him after a perfect parry but it is more risky. From here slash him a few times with your sword and Ninja Run away. It's important that you block this attack, NOT perfect-parry it, as he'll dodge it and recover faster than if you block it. Most of the time, his main attack when using this tactic will be the 'Dive Slash' which you should block pretty easily and leaves him the most exposed. In order to avoid this, and from the beginning of the fight, we're going to be constantly Ninja Running around him, making him chasing us normaly, and trying to slash him as many times as possible before he attacks. If you block one of his attacks and slash him many times, he'll ALWAYS use his Smoke Bomb. Monsoon will use his regular attacks, the most dangerous of all being his Smoke Bomb, luckily for us we can make sure that he doesn't use it in the entire battle!ĭuring this phase, Monsoon will chase you and use one of his 3 'simplest' attacks. It should not make a difference though.įor simplicity, I'm listing Monsoon's 'phases' based on his health first: For reference, my copy is PAL and Digital. This strategy is a compliment to the Boss Data info in the trophy guide, so for more info on his attack patterns check that one out. Just make sure to adjust the camera correctly. During his 'Vehicle Toss' moments, I recommend mostly Horizontal slashes ( ) over Vertical ones ( ) in Blade mode. Only one time it's useful, but then it's also easier to use a regular block here. There's no need to perfect-parry him at any moment. The Wig A (Infinite Ammo) is optional but helps. Equip the following before the boss fight: Murasama blade (Highest damage), Pincer (Sundower's weapon), Red Body (Increased damage), and EMP grenades. You shouldn't worry about Time, and I'll explain BP and Combo later. In order to attain S ranking you need 8000 points: Killing him and the No Damage bonuses gives you a total of 4000 points, so the other 4000 should be a combination of Time, BP and Combo. We're going for an S ranking here, so make sure that you've S ranked every other battle on R-03 before proceeding.
