Boss Strategy: Shichibi
We have confirmed that it appears after taking down the Shiromuku during the ending “The Fox Wets Its Tail”.
It Summons Minions When Damaged
During the battle, the Seven-Tailed Fox periodically drops its current form, becomes invincible, and enters a phase where it summons minions.
Once you defeat the minions, the boss will become vulnerable again and you can resume dealing damage.
There Is an Achievement You Can Unlock
You can unlock an Achievement by taking down all the summoned minions.
In most cases, this should be achievable without much trouble.
Attack Patterns
① Scratch Attack
There may be additional variations outside of the [Story] -Focused difficulty setting. I will update this section once they are confirmed.
Since you cannot guard against this attack, make sure to evade it.
② Tail Stab
This is a Perfect Dodge counter opportunity.
Do not miss the visual cue that appears before the attack.
③ Damage Floor Deployment
When the ground lights up, an attack will trigger shortly after, so move away from the affected area.
④ Minion Summoning Phase
This phase begins once you continue dealing enough damage.
Along with the summoned minions, damage floors will also appear, so be mindful of the ground while taking out the enemies.
