How to Beat The Corrupted Priestess (Yang Phase)

Beat the Corrupted Priestess in Kuon's Yang Phase by using Fire Talismans against her Shadow Clones and dodging the Dark Wave.

Location:

Deep within the underground passages or a hidden ritual chamber during Sakuya's phase.

Phases & Attacks:

1. Phase 1 (Shadow Clones): The Priestess will summon several 'Shadow Clones' that attack you. She herself will remain at a distance, casting dark projectiles.
2. Phase 2 (Direct Assault): After her clones are defeated, she will engage directly, using fast melee attacks and a powerful 'Dark Wave' spell that covers a wide area.

Strategy (Sakuya):

For Phase 1, prioritize defeating the Shadow Clones using your Staff or Fire Talismans. Keep moving to avoid the Priestess's projectiles. Once the clones are down, focus on the Priestess. Use your staff for consistent damage, and save your more powerful Explosive Talismans for when she's vulnerable after a Dark Wave attack. The Dark Wave has a wind-up animation, giving you a small window to dodge or use a Protective Charm. If you have any offensive spells, now is the time to use them. This fight requires good resource management and quick reflexes.

Weaknesses:

• Vulnerable to Fire: Fire Talismans and fire spells deal extra damage.
• Predictable Dark Wave: Can be dodged with practice.

Rewards:

• Seal of the Serpent: A key item for progression.
• Advanced Spell Scroll: Unlocks a powerful new spell for Sakuya.
