Defeat Black Cat

Learn how to defeat Black Cat in Spider-Man: Web of Shadows. This guide covers her attacks, how to counter her, and what to do when she summons guards.

Stats / Weaknesses:

• Black Cat: Counters most attacks if approached carelessly.
• Attacks: Close-range punches, long-range grappling hook grabs.
• Damage: Her moves don't deal a lot of damage.
• Weaknesses: Vulnerable to web strikes and basic punch/kick combos.

Phases:

1. Initial Encounter: You'll catch up to Black Cat and need to fight her. She uses a mix of melee and ranged attacks.
2. Guard Summons: Black Cat will periodically summon additional guards to assist her.
3. Building Hopping: The fight will involve moving between nearby buildings to keep up with her.
4. Post-Fight Choice: After defeating her, you'll follow her to her penthouse and be presented with a choice that impacts your story progression and suit options.

Strategy:

• When you first engage Black Cat, stick to simple punch and kick combos. These are generally safer than web strikes, as she's prone to countering web-based attacks if you're not careful.
• If you do use web strikes, make sure you're ready to dodge or counter her retaliation.
• Don't get too caught up in fighting Black Cat if she summons guards. Your priority should be to quickly defeat these additional enemies. They can easily overwhelm you if you ignore them.
• Keep an eye on your surroundings, as the fight will move between adjacent buildings. You'll need to keep pace with her movements.
• After you've defeated her, follow her to her penthouse. You'll be given a choice: refuse her advances for a light side option or accept her offer for mischief, which leads to a dark suit choice.
• Once you've made your decision, head back to the Spector Industries tower to meet Moon Knight and receive your next assignments.
