Slither: this is more of a stance but Yatsu will Slither towards the player whenever you cut one of his arms off and then go into either a tail whip or a dive.ĭive: Yatsu slams his head and body onto the ground and player. He does a little hiss at the player afterwards.Ĭurl 2: same as one but the dark realm variant, he also doesn't hiss. Poison spit: he spits poison at you, its very very easily avoidable.Ĭurl 1 : Yatsu throws his body around himself. Tail Whip 2: this variant is the one he uses in the dark realm as well as rarely in the real realm, it's the same but you can see he is about to do it before striking so its very easily blockable.

It's possibly blockable if you have a trigger finger, otherwise prepare to take a blow. He swings his tail, it does around 600 damage. Tail Whip 1 : this one is a pain, if you get too close to Yat he will use it. Needle throwing 2: this is the variant he uses in the dark realm, they do more damage and they have a longer range. They do about 160 damage each with heavy to medium armor. You can stand at the back of the arena and they will be out of range when thrown, otherwise mash X or A and try and dodge. Needle throwing 1: whenever the player is too far from Yatsu, he will Spawn needles to throw at you, they aren't a threat unless you are close. It can be canceled if you are fast enough. He does this whenever the player is too close. But do not try and face it head on, you WILL die. If you either go the light Armour route or decide to take Masaru, you can dodge it. Impending doom 2 is an insta kill and deals around 1600 damage. You WILL likely take a whopping 600 damage if you even graze him. Impending doom 2: this is a faster variant and it's a burst counter. But it's very slow and meant to scare you.

Impending Doom 1: this is where he tries to ram you, when you first enter the arena, he will start with this, it WILL insta kill you if you do not dodge it.
