Great Serpent | Sekiro Shadows Die Twice Wiki

What if it's ONE two headed snake which has one head and another head on its tail?

I killed the second serpent and fell into the pond, how do i return to the other side of the bridge?

Submit

Something I discovered when I was playing through again. If you leap from the cliff and deathblow the Serpent from Senpou, but don't perform the second Deathblow Finisher prompt, the serpent will swallow you, and transport you to the cave in the sunken valley where the second serpent lives, where you get the Dried Viscera.

I have no idea what the purpose of this is, but it makes getting both Viscera pretty fast if you just Homeward Idol back to Senpou after letting it swallow you and grabbing the dried Viscera :))

Nice

Submit

the serpent despawned and i never got the chance to injure it.

Submit

What... it's a turtle.

Submit

this is for anyone that hasn't jumped down to deathblow the 3rd snake encounter to get fresh serpent viscera. After killing the snake and you land on a ledge of cliffside, DON'T GO ONTO THE BROKEN BRIDGE you will fall and there's no way to get back to that same cliffside ledge. From reading some posts it doesn't look like you miss alot or important things(seems to be dragon blood droplet, mibu balloon and few other small items) thankfully but it's still aggravating.

Theoretically. Hypothetically. Scientific reasons. Merely a question. Could this serpent have sex with the divine dragon?

Submit

that snake is huge, how can such a tiny needle (sword) can kill her?

Submit

Felt bad killing the first snake. He's just chilling living his life and then you come along, stab him in the eye and ultimately kill him when he is sleeping

Submit

if you jump on the snake and not do the deathblow, he just consumes you and you spawn near the toxic memorial mob

Submit

Snake. Snake? SNAAAAAAAKE

Submit

None of the wikis seem to notice that Bloodborne had a similar white snake in the cut content…it was really long and stick out of environments just like this one.

Submit

this fight make much anger i wish u could just kill with the power of christ

Submit

How many great serpents in the game? Are there two? I killed the one sleeping. So, I went and checked the cave in the sunken valley below and the great serpent there is still alive lol

Submit

Just to clarify some things for anyone confused. It is 1 snake, 1. Not 2 snakes, it is one snake. The second time you see the snake with where you left it on the way to the gunfort and it literally has the scar/wound from the time the snake tried to kiss you goodbye and you said "STRANGER DANGER, STRANGER DANGER" and stabbed that mofo in the eye ball socket.

Submit

It's the alright snake

Submit

A stealth game where you hide from snake. The irony

Submit

Please help I can't see the snake in the sunken valley senpou temple I have the mortal blade and I didn't notice a guy we could talk to but now he is also not there what should I do

Submit

Yeah no haha I can leave goodbye now

Submit

I have made a discovery. The first serpent does not come back, once you triggered a fight with Gyoubu Oniwa. I did not stab it in the eye while in the palanquin.

Submit

There is only 1 snake. Check out the eye of the one in the cave, it's clearly bloody. And when u get swallow by it after gun fort it just withdraw to its lair and***** you out. There maybe a continueity error?

Submit

I think it's pretty stupid that both serpents look the same. How hard is it to open photoshop and fiddle with the hue thingy for a few minutes, jeez.

Submit

if I stand still... the snake cannot smell me

Submit

If you don't perform the second deathblow when you jump onto the snake in the sunken valley, it transports you to the snake cavern near the Toxic Memorial Mob

Submit

What happens if you don't go into the palanquin and don't stab its eye? Will it be resting in the Sunken Valley, perhaps without a bloodied eye?

Submit

jormungandr!!!! but on a serious note is there two snakes, is there only one snake and its two headed, or is there one one headed snake and the game has consistancy problems with the snake?

Submit

big snek

Submit

Interesting thing to note: If you don't kill the first serpent when doing the plunge attack, it will swallow you and bring you to the entrance of the cavern with the dried serpent viscera. Shocked me when it happened by accident. You discover something every day.

Submit

Anyone knows if something happens when you decide to stay in the Palanquin instead of stabbing the snake in the eye?

Submit

Just wanna note that the Fresh Serpent Viscera is NOT the heart of the Serpent but its liver. It's mentioned by the divine heir I think. Anyway it makes me think that it didn't really get killed by Sekiro.

Submit

I think both snakes are actually the same, and it is just immortal.

Submit

There appear to be at least two serpents; one unharmed near the Dried Viscera and the other with a gouged out eye. Also all the statues of a Woman embracing a serpent in the Sunken Valley and near the first staff wielding monk in Senpou Temple seem to refer to the act of becoming a Cradle. The Large Fan also seems to connect the statues, Sunken Valley and Senpou Temple.

Submit

Anybody know if the one u stab in the eye remains if u return to the area?

Submit

Thought I was being clever when I killed the boss and then went to get the dried fruit, only to see the snake still there. I thought there was only one.

Submit

I think it looks really similar to the giant serpents in bloodborne

Submit

After Stabbing it's eye in the first encounter, the snake basically completely ingored me after the gun fort. I'm not sure if it's because she was blinded in that eye and didn't see me, or if it was the Gachiin's Spiritfall I was using at the time (this was done in ng+)

Submit

Everyone who felt of the bridge after killing the snake dont worry you can get the items anyway well it is true you cant go back up there but you can buy the items from the little chest at the sculpturers place next to your immortal training partner

Submit

You can get past its first encounter by either doing a very lucky dodge, resurrecting or using Ungo's Sugar to reduce damage taken (I'm in ng+ with 9/10 beads, but also bell and without charm active, so idk how feasible it'd be on a first turn) - Just get to the palanquin via stealth and there start running over, it'll try to eat you once but not follow you aimlessly as it does when you half-blind it. I don't know if this can have any consequences, I'm just writing this so that more people can look for those

Submit

So i have a little theory that i wanted to share. On the Sekiro wiki there is written that there are 2 great serpents but i don't think that that is correct. I think that there is actually 1 Serpent that have 2 heads, one on each end of it's body. Some arguments 1: After you stab its eye and look on it while you are in the cave you can see that its running away backwards. ( and i don t think "normal" snake would do that") 2 You never see the end of its boddy 3 in the sekiro lore it's told that some people worshiped the Snake God and i m preatty sure that they would realize that theri is more of there gods 4 After you plunge attack its head its body is laying on the mountain but after a while it dissaperd so i suspect that the "other Half of Snake has pulled it to itself. ( it's not some super serious theory just a random stuff that i have come up with while playing the game over and over again)

Submit

I wonder if there's a furiously masturbating furry dude who made priscilla and this vore bait, or if the entire fromsoft team is just degenerate

Submit

After you kill the snake, by any chance, don't go to the bridge to look around, cause you will fall, and there is no alternate way back, than killing the nope.

Submit

Nice set piece the first time but wish it wasn't there for other playthroughs

Submit

THERE ARE TWO >:'(

Submit

when killing the serpent in the sunken valley if you do the jumping deathblow but not the shinoboi execution afterwards (the second deathblow) it eats you but deals no damage and takes you to the cave where the second serpent is

Submit

The great serpent is Patches don’t @ me

Submit

Do you have to stab the serpents eye in the first encounter to kill the serpent and get the viscera?

Submit

after jumping on and killing the snake I fell off the ledge it brought me to. How do I get back there?

Submit

You dont need the mortal blade to kill it

Submit

TIP: if you hit it only once, in hidden cave where u get via kite - u will be moved to serpent cave at the bottom of sunken valley

Submit

It’s interesting how Bloodborne’s cut content had a big ol’ white snake tied to the Forbidden Woods, and now we get a big ol’ white snake (or two) in Sekiro. Of course, now it’s a REALLY big ol’ snake… Now that I think about it, Bloodborne’s cut content also featured a lancer on a horse, and now we have Gyoubu…

Submit

I had a wet dream about this snake, and now I hate myself.

Submit

I have a theory: there is just one Great Serpent, but with two heads (like the Catdog from Nickelodeon). When this snake swallows us we get teleported to the cave of 2nd Great Serpent, so the first head eat us and the second head spits us to the cave. What do you think?

Submit

so it's confirmed there are serpents?

Submit

I got by the second snake without using the grapple point of ninjitsu by having lots of hp and running by, taking 3 hits, ressing once.

Submit

weird, i kill Great Serpent then come back to Toxic Memorial Mob but it gone. is it really have 2 Serpent ??

Submit

Uwabami (Great Serpent) is not a boss. It's just a scripted and boring obstacle... It looks good and sounds menacing since we're at its territory, but in execution, none of it feels like a challenge.

Submit

You do not need the puppeteer ninjutsu to get the viscera of the second serpent. Just grapple on the ledge, fall immediately after so that you dodge the attack, and grapple again while it is recovering, and finally sprint away into the house.

Submit

Cleaned up the page to distinguish that there are two Great Serpents in the game, the only one of them is killable, and that you have to encounter the first one in a specific order if you want to kill it. Also cleaned up the language, and explained how both Serpents are related to an Alternate Ending.

Submit

How many great serpents in the game? Are there two? I killed the one sleeping. So, I went and checked the cave in the sunken valley below and the great serpent there is still alive lol

Submit

not gonna lie, he has some beautiful roundy eyes

Submit

OK I killed the serpent, then fell off the edge into the water. How do I get back to that ledge? I can see an item there and it's driving me mad!

Submit

I feel bad every time I kill it, the snake is just too cute.

Submit

It appears that there are two of them. You can find another snake in a place with dried serpent viscera even after killing the great serpent.

I managed to get it into an infinite loop after stabbing it in the eye; I went back to hide in the palaquin and the game won't let me exit, and the serpent won't stop writhing around... Anyone else had this issue?

Submit

This might be the most terrifying enemy I've fought in a FromSoftware game lol, he's not even tough he's just so damned big and scary looking that it's hard not to feel absolutely frightened when he's 2ft away from you.

Submit

To the sacrificial monkey: I am sorry little one...

You can run past this boss. It will not respawn and you will not receive any rewards though.
