Tips
  • Dousing Powder is invaluable when fighting enemies or bosses that utilize fire attacks, such as the Guardian Ape (second phase) or certain enemies in the Interior Ministry forces.
  • Using Dousing Powder before engaging a fire-heavy enemy can negate a significant portion of their damage output, allowing for more aggressive play.
  • It can also be used to extinguish yourself if you are set on fire by environmental hazards or enemy attacks, preventing chip damage over time.
  • The effect is temporary, so time its use strategically before a major fire-based assault.
