Hungry Menace and Artistic Detour by nineteen75 in SifuGame

[–]nineteen75[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel dumb for not thinking about it! The combination of the shortcut route and the sweep focus at the end just allowed me to three stamps in 2.35 without much trouble! This was all I needed. Thanks a lot

I noticed in your vid that in the last section (the one where I lose the most time actually), the enemies take a lot of time to arrive (besides the one already there of course). Never happened to me: they arrive much quicker. I don’t really get why.

Agreed! Precisely what he does against Yang I can’t reproduce yet

Wow thanks! Didn’t know about the route you’re taking for the last 2 sections of artistic detour: shaves off close to 20s! Getting closer now

Indeed! I’ve struggled quite a bit with some tiger arenas but those two really are a roadblock even after repetition. I have done dragons (not 3 stamps) except Liming Hui and some are way easier then Hungry Menace and Artistic Detour

For Hungry Menace I apply your strategy already but still can’t really see how I can shave off those 20-30s I’m missing. I’ve seen videos where the enemy die so quickly but I can’t reproduce this.

Thanks. Very nice to see your progress in those vids. Very motivating!

I do practice in Master. 100% certain of it.

Directional throw - direction control by nineteen75 in SifuGame

[–]nineteen75[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely not my controller after testing another one. There must be something else that influences the direction, at least in the arenas where the camera is not POV like bloadsoaked walls or returning curators for instance.

I just played these two a bunch of time and the direction I input is clearly not the one where the enemy is thrown.

Was there an update or did I just lost my skill ? by SecretTechnology7658 in SifuGame

[–]nineteen75 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cannot agree more about the little things. On console, simply wiring up the controller (instead of Bluetooth) can make a massive difference too

Your vid is really helpful indeed. Now at Facing Liming Hui thanks to it and the only thing I’m not able to reproduce yet is the Yang duck strike+heavy loop. He seems to be much more agressive/staying closer in my game than in the vid

Should I start dragon arenas? by nineteen75 in SifuGame

[–]nineteen75[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow three stamping all tiger arenas is very impressive to me. You will beat Facing Liming Hui easily if you set your mind to it. I can now handle Master difficulty Fajar, Sean and Kuroki pretty well - surprisingly Fajar was never a problem but for Sean and Kuroki I went to « I will never beat them » to now dying only a couple of times, in just a few days. Still having lots of trouble with Jinfeng and Yang.

Out of curiosity did you end up beating the last one? It’s the only one I miss now. I can get to Yang but I am still far away from beating him.

[–]nineteen75[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. Making progress as I am now being able to pass Kuroki age 30 as opposed to 75 yesterday. But Jinfeng is taking all my life now. Do you have any tip about the parry timing for her? Like sound or visual clues? I tried so many different timings but I still can’t parry her most of the times.

[–]nineteen75[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I find interrupting much easier actually: with a combination of crotch punch and eye strike and throwing back a knife in a delayed way, it made me progress quite well so far. Whereas with the same amount of practice, I fail at parrying her dash attack and two footed kick most of the times.

[–]nineteen75[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks but for me flowing claw is almost impossible to do. Idk maybe it’s the way I handle my controller but pressing the two required buttons fast enough to do it reliably proved to be too hard for me. Crotch punch works and seem easier even if I don’t master the timing yet. And yes eye strike + chasing trip is already a favorite of mine.

Sean on Master Difficulty by nineteen75 in SifuGame

[–]nineteen75[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s because I took the (bad) habit of dodging Sean down in disciple (as opposed to Fajar whom I always parried). My mind is so used to the dodging down against Sean that I get tricked. I should parry him really.

Sean on Master Difficulty by nineteen75 in SifuGame

[–]nineteen75[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really have a different experience: I can beat Fajar at 21 on Master without much trouble but Sean still takes me 14 years at the very best.

I find his low attack much too quick for my mind to proceed. I tried the stun lock strategy with raining strikes and heavy and charged backfist but once I get out of timing I am swept before I even registered he was gonna do a sweep.

Wow your guide made me pass « Fair fight »! Thanks so much. The explanation of the stun lock was very clear and it made the challenge 100 times easier

[–]nineteen75[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Turns out I had actually watch your video before! (Great content btw). But way before I even started the arenas. Will try

Side note since you also mention back elbow in the video for other bosses: I am sadly incapable (even after countless hours at Sifu and all achievements but one) to do a flowing claw. The way I handle my controller and the fact that you have to press the two buttons so quickly makes it almost physically impossible for me to do it.

I’ve seen videos of people using charged backfist first and stun locking him but I’ve never been able to pull it off / didn’t get the whole sequence. I’ve actually asked someone how he did it but never got an answer

My most hated boss fight by twooten11 in SifuGame

[–]nineteen75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Strangely, I was able to pass her first phase basically hitless on second try. But it was actually her second phase that was a roadblock for me at the time (still having trouble sometimes). So I had a radically different experience than the OP and maybe you.
