Nioh 2 Boss Guide – How to Beat Tsukahara Bokuden and Ashikaga Yoshiteru

In Nioh 2, several bosses are encountered when trying to complete the different Dojo missions. Tsukahara Bokuden appears in the Dojo Missions “Way of the Warrior – Adept” and “Way of the Warrior – Veteran”, wielding a spear in both fights. In both instances, he’s extremely easy to beat. Simply attack with Mid Stance attacks, keeping your distance the whole time. Dodge his attacks and when his Ki starts dropping, go aggressive and use a finisher. He should be defeated in no time.

How to Beat Ashikaga Yoshiteru

You’ll face Ashikaga Yoshiteru in the Dojo Mission “Master of the Dual Blades”. He may seem somewhat tough since he can deal moderate Ki damage but don’t worry. Simply bait his attacks and hit back. Yoshiteru tends to use overhead strikes which can deal some moderate damage so avoid those. Keep striking back and reducing his Ki, using finishers whenever possible to take him down. Be careful not to lose too much Ki since Yoshiteru can stagger and grapple you.
