Learn how to defeat Yuki in Nioh 3 with a detailed breakdown of her Ice Stomp, Ice Breath, and Charge Attack.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Ice Stomp: Yuki raises her leg and stomps, creating a large ice circle. You have a split second to evade. Once the ice goes up, you can safely walk forward into the ice for a couple of attacks before Yuki recovers.
  2. 2
    Ice Breath: Yuki leans forward on her staff and breathes an ice stream. This causes ongoing damage and applies the "Water" status effect. Quickly dodge to the side to avoid it and create an opening for counterattacks.
  3. 3
    Ice Shots (Type 1): Yuki summons 3 or 4 icicles above her head that fire one after another directly at you. You can block these with enough Ki or dodge away.
  4. 4
    Ice Barrage (Type 2): Three chunks of ice appear above Yuki's head and fire repeatedly in a shotgun-like pattern (five shots total). Guard the first few shots and then dodge away.
  5. 5
    Ice Spread (Type 3): Five icicles appear above Yuki's head, spread out, and fire in a spread pattern. This move punishes dodging to the side. It is better to guard one shot or guard and walk slowly to the side to avoid it.
  6. 6
    Area Ice (Version 1): Yuki shoots ice onto the ground in front of her, leaving patches that cause damage if stood upon. Move the fight elsewhere.
  7. 7
    Area Ice (Version 2): Yuki shoots a circle of ice around herself, trapping you in close quarters. This ice disappears quickly; guard when needed and wait for it to dissipate.
  8. 8
    Charge Attack: Yuki's halberd disappears, and she charges forward. If you back up far enough, she will appear directly in front of you, ready to be hit. If she hits you, the camera zooms in for a grapple, dealing moderate initial damage and minor damage as she throws you down.
Tips
  • For Ice Stomp, bait the attack and then move forward into the ice after it forms to get safe hits in.
  • Dodge to the side during Ice Breath to create counterattack opportunities.
  • Block or dodge Ice Shots. For Ice Barrage, guard the initial shots and then dodge. For Ice Spread, guard or carefully walk to avoid the pattern.
  • For the Charge Attack, create distance to bait her and get free hits.
  • When trapped by Area Ice (Version 2), stay calm, guard, and wait for it to disappear.
