Mist Noble is a Mini-Boss in Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. This Complete Mist Noble Mini-Boss Guide gives you strategies on how to beat the Mist Noble easily, as well as tips, tricks and lore notes. Mini-Bosses are special Enemies that are uniquely named, and have 2 or more health bars. This means they require at least 2 Deathblows in order to kill, they are generally much more difficult than normal enemies (this mini-boss is an exception), and they drop some of the best loot in the game.

Mist Noble Notes & Tips

  • It appears to be of the same species as The Mist Noble are encountered as normal enemies in the Fountainhead Palace, only wearing much nicer robes.
  • The easiest mini-boss in the game to beat. His design became a joke among the fans.

Mist Noble Story & Lore

  • Okami, written as "淤加美 (okami)" in the Japanese version, is a dragon deity of water, rain and snow from Japanese mythology. According to Kojiki, the god was born from the blood of the slain god Kagutsuchi. The name can be alternatively written as "龗 (okami)" and "闇龗 (kuraokami)", which all hold the meaning of "dragon". It's likely that the Divine Dragon (called "桜竜/sakura-ryu" - Sakura Dragon in Japanese) is inspired by Kuraokami.

Sekiro Mist Noble Strategy Write-up

This Mini-Boss can be defeated in mere seconds using a Drop-Down Deathblow. As the boss attempts to stand after the plunge, just use normal attacks until it dies. It's more than likely you'll never see it do anything other than take hits from you. Even if you let it act, all it will do is make slow, feeble swings with its fists that do almost no damage. Parrying its strikes is surprisingly tricky due to being very slow and over-telegraphed compared to almost every other enemy, but it is also completely pointless because it will only get the chance to attack if you let it.

      This is a great fake out by FromSoftware. With all his limbs he looks quite imposing at a glance and you probably think he’s going to be very dangerous but then it’s over.

        Tips for this boss
        1.get sakura dance it is mandatory for this boss as he has lightning attacks be careful to his perilous grab attack as it does like more than half ur health damage
        2.get rice before the fight, as this fight is very long,phase 13 is the easiest as he has a palace noble attack but slower which is helpful
        3.he pulls out 2 odachi's in the last 4 phases so be careful also in phase 15 he gets isshin sword saint's moveset
        4.in phase 10 he turns invisible so be very careful,also he summons a mist copy of isshin old man in phase 5,recommend to have every healing item possible,no matter what ending u doing,use ako gokan and ungo sugars trough the fight,ichimonji double helps best in phase 7 and 8,get all prayer beads and possibly the dragon wood mask to transport xp into attack power so u get strongest u can before this encounter,good luck!

          Took me over 200 attempts on my first playthrough. I don't get why people talk about Inner Isshin while this thing is haunting the Ashina Depths.

            Surprised they didn't do an Inner Mist Noble at the end of the Mortal Journey gauntlet but I guess they couldn't think of a reward for something so impossible.

              I literally just spammed spring-loaded firevent and oil pots and never even saw a single attack of his. Almost feel guilt.. Almost.

                I AM SO DONE WITH THIS GAME. On my first save I easily managed to kill all of the EASY bosses (Inner genichiro, inner isshin and inner Father) but when I reached this guy, I gave up sekiro ENTIRELY! He is EXTREMELY buffed in NG+ and anybody farther than NG+ obviously used a skip, cheese or hack to beat him. 2 WHOLE DEATHBLOW MARKERS!? Don't even get me started on when he uses sakura dance to INSTA-KILL YOU AND DISABLE REVIVES. not to mention the ENFEEBLEMENT BAR GOING UP SO FAST! WTF!? Truly one of the worst bosses of all time.

                  Imagine if the Mist Noble ever fought Soldier of God, Rick... Gives me goosebumps just thinking about it.

                    Most ridiculous soulsborne boss ever!!! Like bruh, Inner Isshin and Father combine couldn't hold a candle to this messed up boss! Like bruh! Really Fromsoft? 15 Death blows and Phases? Are you kidding me?

                    Even the difficulty scaling by on each phase is messed up! On phase one, he has this damned combo where he does 10 perilous attacks in a row which does half of your health. by phase 3, he pulls out a blue mortal blade out of thin air that insta-kills you if you even touch it once and BY PHASE 7, HE GETS ON A LITERAL F-16 FIGHTER JET AND BLAST YOU AND ASHINA TO DUST!!!! WTF!?!?!?!

                    bullcrap boss!

                      I love the soulsborne community sometimes. usually it's full of vaguely toxic masochistic weirdos, but for this boss the whole community is united in making fun of it. all stand as one in the quest to memefy the easiest boss I've ever seen in any game

                      • Anonymous

                        An interesting take I read about this guy is that the actual boss fight is reaching him through all the illusions and fog. Once you get past his defences he has no way to fight back, but any time you struggled in his area, you struggled against Mist Noble.

                        Obviously that theory doesn't hold up since chad Noble is the most punishing fight in any Soulsborne, but it's a cool idea.

                          His weakness is a decent player. And by decent I mean best Sekiro player in the multiverse. Who the hell thought about this

                            You can kind of relax on his lightning fast combos if you have the umbrella, just watch out for his grab attack, on his fourth phase.

                              Probably one of the best fights FromSoft's ever given players. Here's a tip, make sure to stock up on consumables before this fight. Before dropping down, use:

                              Divine Confetti
                              Ako's Sugar
                              Gokan's Sugar
                              Purple Gourd or a Pacifying Agent.

                              You're going to want to practice deflection really hard, and make sure you AT LEAST have decent combat arts. (Obviously, Shadowrush is a must.)
                              Once you drop down for the deathblow, you're going to be hit with a flurry of attacks SO DON'T ATTACK YET. Just put your guard up and wait. This is a battle of attrition. Going hard on it will severely punish you. Good luck.

                                    Haha all jokes aside I’ve literally felt bad enough to step back and give him some time to attack, he’s completely useless and does nothing.

                                      Single hardest boss in sekiro if not the single hardest boss of any Fromsoft game. What were they thinking with this guy? He has so many different attack chains that come in so fast it's near impossible to tell what he's about to do next.

                                      • i final got the phase 144444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444986738888888888888888888888888888888888888888333333333333337777777777777777777777777777775888884994000000000001

                                        only for him to ascend beyond his elden demon dark cinder fire shura mortal immortal PKCS MHS epic strong giga chad phase and then deleted my save of my playthrough, but he wasn't done there, he first deleted sekiro off my PC, then all my games and apps, then proceeded to blow up my computer, it took me 3 years, 3 months and 25 days to get too that phase! Not Happy!

                                          So I kinda like running through here farming XP on the spirits. They hit kinda hard but most are slow to aggro. Plus they repainted with out having to rest. If killing this guy makes them leave I may just let him keep his wax and play his flute forever.

                                            Last time I attempted this I ran out of calories in real life the fight was taking so long. My hands starting shaking and I eventually blacked out before phase 7. I ordered an IV off Amazon and am planning to try the fight again when it arrives later this week.

                                              Fun fact: the mist noble may be a super hard boss..but you have no idea how much power it truly holds. Its so powerful the entire trilogy of dark souls is just a illusion made by it. It is the one who created the hunters nightmare. He holds the title of elden lord. He is the lord of hollows. He is the slayer of demons….thats only me scratching the surface of his immeasurable outstanding power

                                                For phase 9 when he pulls out 4 mortal blades and wields them and then summons gael and sister friede. you are gonna want to throw shurikens. He will deflect the shurikens back at you but this will lower his posture. While running away from gael and friede run over to him and try and deflect his 39 fury attacks (these will one shot you if you miss deflecting one) and now parry the shots from his ak47. run away repeat until hes to phase 10. This is probably the easiest way to beat his phase 9 it really isint that bad.

                                                  Just beat this guy and my hands are still shaking. I'm new to the "SoulsBorne" genre and after 4 hours of constant attempts to get to his 7th phase I finally did it. I have 2 kids and I'm a 48 year old guy who makes $35.03/hr plus bennies and I'm shaking I can't believe I beat this boss.

                                                    If you use the hollowslayer greatsword on phase 16, you can actually skip phase 17 go straight to 18 with a much easier moveset to contest

He probably has the worst hitboxes From Soft have ever made he could grab me from across the room, and BEHIND HIM. This boss seriously needs to be patched, I may not even buy Elden Ring if From Soft doesn't fix this impossible boss, it shows they're just trying to make their game "hard", without even caring for balancing or its accessibility for players. As a Games Journalist, it's my JOB to play games, and I can't even finish to write my article because of this broken boss. Literally unplayable.

When he enters the second phase and pulls out all four swords as well as summoning the ghost of the Headless Ape in that tiny room it's impossible to do it without glitching yourself outside of the arena... Except then you discover that isn't a glitch, and they were kind enough to let you run past... Until you realise that if you have any other From Software game installed, it can spawn bosses from them too... Enjoy fighting Headless Ape, Headless, Shichimen Warrior, Sister Friede, Nameless King, Fume Knight, Artorias, Manus, and most terrifyingly of all, Mist Noble 2nd phase, all at once.

Recommend to use any buffs you can on yourself as its speed is very fast. This boss can also one shot you, not even kidding. I recommend using the strongest sugars you can before starting the fight. Good luck, you'll need it. You'll be stuck for about a couple days or so.

                                                                                          I didn’t even feel the slightest bit bad after slaughtering him lol. Dying 100+ times to ******* bosses has hardened my cold, dead heart...

                                                                                                I really wish I got to see what you did if I just dropped down to greet you.. even if it was to pull a brainsucker on me.

But idk how FromSoftware can make this boss move faster than I can swing my god dam sword... I tried everything and this SOB can’t be hit. I had the whole room on fire and guess what? Bastard laughed. FFS!

He makes Genichiro look like a toddler in comparison

I came up to this fight prepared for a serious life-or-death encounter (so, a typical Tuesday for Sekiro). Munched on a Gaachin's sugar so they won't see me comin', only for me to drop down, take his first life then hack until he was down. Even then I had my Loaded Umbrella up 'cause I figured, "Nah, this ain't it." Was left staring at his body as the mist cleared, and I wept. "What were you doing, grandpa? This wasn't the game for you!"

Way to hard for me dude...
