If you hit his head enough, or drain his stamina, you can stun him for a few seconds and get even more hits in. If he chooses to swing the second ball, wait for the ball to swing around his body twice before going in for the attack. If he brings down the other ball into the ground, rush in immediately for a few quick attacks. Each time he slams one ball into the ground, stay just out of range and watch to see what he does next. Onryoki’s other moves really just involve him hitting one ball on the ground at a time, or swinging them around. It’s an easy move to read, but it can take out more than half of your life bar if it does hit you. Once he does this, either move as far back as you can, or dodge to his side if you don’t have the space. You can read this move pretty easily by looking out for him raising both of his arms. One of his most dangerous attacks is an overhead swing with him smashing the two balls right in front of him. In his first phase, Onryoki will swing two giant metal chain balls at you.
If you do choose to go with an axe or a spear, considering taking on this boss with either mid or low stance – you’ll take a hit in damage output, but you’ll also have more stamina left over for dodging after each combo.
Axes and spears will do better damage, but they’re also a lot slower, and being speedy is much more advantageous overall in this game. First off, I recommend using a fast weapon like the katana or even the dual katanas, if you have them. He hits very hard, but his patterns are also extremely easy to follow.
Don’t let his intimidating appearance shake you. Onryoki is the first major yokai boss you’ll face in the Nioh beta demo.
