Master the Six Blades of Kojiro boss fight in Ghost of Tsushima. Learn Kojiro's stats, weaknesses, and effective strategies to overcome this challenging encounter.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    This quest is initiated by speaking with the NPC Senji the Swordmaster in the Sakai Village.
  2. 2
    You will need to defeat the first five of the Six Blades in separate duels across Tsushima.
  3. 3
    The final duel is against Kojiro himself.

Stats / Weaknesses:

  • Kojiro: A master swordsman with a focus on aggressive, fast attacks. He is vulnerable to parries and well-timed dodges.
  • Weaknesses: His attacks can be telegraphed, allowing for counter-attacks. He is susceptible to the same tactics as other skilled samurai opponents.

Phases:

  1. Phase 1: Kojiro will employ a series of rapid sword strikes. Focus on parrying or dodging these attacks and looking for openings to counter.
  2. Phase 2: Kojiro may become more aggressive, using sweeping attacks and lunges. Maintain defensive positioning and punish his recovery frames.
  3. Phase 3: In the final moments, Kojiro might unleash his most powerful techniques. Patience and precise timing are key to surviving and landing the finishing blow.

Strategy:

  • Master the Parry: Successfully parrying Kojiro's attacks will stagger him, creating opportunities for significant damage.
  • Dodge Effectively: When parrying isn't possible, precise dodges are crucial to avoid damage. Dodge into his attacks to position yourself for a counter-attack.
  • Use Stances Wisely: Adapt your stance based on his attack patterns. The Stone Stance can be effective against his rapid strikes, while the Water Stance might offer better evasion.
  • Patience is Key: Do not get greedy with your attacks. Wait for clear openings after his combos to strike safely.
  • Utilize Resolve: Build Resolve by successfully defending and attacking to unleash powerful Resolve Attacks when the opportunity arises.
  • Defeating Kojiro completes 'The Tale of the Six Blades' side quest.
  • You will receive a significant amount of Legend Increase, Charm of Resolve, and other experience-based rewards.
