Possible to Assassinate Deathblow 2 HP Nodes

There's a way for players to assassinate deathblow the Corrupted Monk twice during its battle. You can do it when it first appears and the second will be where it reappears after creating illusions.

Swing Up Trees to Escape Its Illusions Attacks

When the Corrupted Monk creates its illusions, immediately grapple across the trees. Keep moving between the trunks so the illusions won't be able to hit you with its attacks.

Use Snap Seed to Get Rid of Illusions

Alternatively, you can use a Snap Seed to cancel out the Corrupted Monk's illusions. Activate the snap seed from high up a tree branch. Do it quickly as the illusions have an attack that can reach you there.

Counterattack Against Corrupted Monk's Low Swipe Perilous Move

Jump up when the Corrupted Monk does its low swipe perilous attack. You can put in a few strikes against the Corrupted Monk before landing down.

Mikiri Counter Thrust Perilous Attack

After a series of swing combos, the Corrupted Monk will end it with a Thurst Perilous Attack. Use the Mikiri Counter for it and attack the Corrupted Monk in the few seconds it's stunned.

Jump Back from Centipede Throw Attack
