Mist Raven | Sekiro Shadows Die Twice Wiki

It's super easy to cheese the ninja if you have gachiin's sugar. Wait for combat to start then go jump off the ledge headfirst into the water. Wait for combat music to stop and go till the point you started wall climbing and eat gachiin's sugar before proceeding to the top which will allow you to sneak behind the ninja and kill him with deathblow.

So you've finally learned Sword Saint Isshin's second phase, but your doctor just said you only have 5 minutes to live and you really want to finish the game without needing to learn the third? Boy do I have the tool for you

Submit

I took the item, then cheesed the ninja by standing under the ledge to the right of the pagoda and hitting him with normal attacks and whirlwind slices. If you don't move too far back towards the cliff, he won't go down to your level, and will instead attempt to attack you from the higher altitude. You can just barely reach him with the tip of your sword, allowing you to gradually deal posture and HP damage in more or less equal measure. You can still be hit by one of his stomp attacks for 2/3 of your health, but that happens rarely and can be avoided, so your 2 heals should be enough to see you through the "fight".

If he comes down to attack you, you can just reset by hopping back up beside the building, baiting him closer, and dropping to the ledge again.

Submit

Godlike in base vitality/attack power runs when you're fighting isshin, where you really can't afford to deal with the chip from lightning in 3rd phase.

Submit

This is probably useless in game but it looks cool tho. So imma use it

Submit

i don’t care if its unoptimal, it looks awesome

Minor fun fact: This one isn't noticed much, but it's not very surprising to learn either. The Mist Raven has a unique animation for its dedicated follow-up prosthetic attack if you use the directional dodge that isn't seen in other prosthetics. This animation is the same as Owl's running attack. A more obvious and well known fact is the animation that plays if you dodge upwards, which is the same animation as one of two of Owl's owl plunges.

Submit

Don’t use this, genuinely. There are far better tools.

Submit

Most useless prosthetic. A prosthetic dedicated to dodging in a game that discourages it and encourages deflecting.

Submit

The key to victory is learning mikiri counters and pelting shuriken when the ninja jumps. A lot of his attacks are big, telegraphed jump kicks.

Submit

Kind of ironic that it doesn't work on grab attacks, considering the flavor behind it.

Submit

I have a question. Is mist raven a person or something? owls name is….well owl. So imagining a person named mist raven dosent too sound weird.

Submit

Just a tip that you can just run past the guard and get the item inside of the house. The animation for opening the door gives you iFrames, and after that he can't run fast enough to get you while you're inside. Figured this out on my 2nd playthrough, since my first one I didnt realize this thing even existed until I was looking up all the prosthetics. If you're further ahead in the game, you can farm this guy for EXP since he's pretty easy.

Submit

I swear to god that ninja defending it isn't supposed to be fought at 10 vigor. His damage is unholy. If you face the same ninja in ashina at 18 vigor they deal much less damage.

Submit

Ah, it's the most useless prosthetic in the game!! Doesn't even do anything except waste spirit emblems.

Why use this when you can deflect? Seriously...

Submit

You can just sprint and grab the item without actually having to fight that guard

Submit

it is effective against genichiro because the tomoe mode you can actually send it back to him without using the lightning revearsal

Submit

That's great and all, but how the hell do you actually use it?it seemingly does nothing.

Submit

The real enemy on this fight is the camera

Submit

Man I feel dumb. I missed this until I got to dragon palace and when I came to grab it I had already fought the ministry ninja dozens of times so when he dropped down I was really underwhelmed. At least I have it now. Not quite as good as the firecrackers or the shuriken but it helps a lot when getting overwhelmed.

Submit

Oil + flame vent wrecks this guy.

Submit

Ironic that the feathers mention it is hard to catch the Mist Ravens, but when using the tool, it's the grab attacks they can't help you deal with.

Submit

nothing personnel kid

Submit

I get the guards attention and then jump off the cliff on the far left and grapple to the tree. Go back in to the shaft up and use an Invis sugar before jumping up and circling around to backstab. Works every time.

Submit

Underrated but more reliable than most prosthetics. Probably on par with the firecrackers if not more when it comes to reliability.

Submit

It's a really good tool against enemies that have a slow swing or a predictable set-up. Lady Butterfly's frontal attack, when she gets on hit toes before striking forward, or Juzo The Drunkard's slow swing. You can get some good health damage on them if used properly.

Submit

My pride forced me to kill this guy without cheesing. Took me like 10 deaths tried a bunch of stuff, he doesnt let you get many hits but one gauranteed hit is if you parry is lunge - which is actually a kick. He has 2 inavoidable moves one is a sweep that he'll use after a few sword swings, other is a lunging kick he ONLY does after kicking a few times. Chip away his health then break his poise. He also respawns on rest!

Submit

That gaurd kicked me ass repeatedly until I drew him to the ledge, jumped off and quickly scrambled back up as he was still looking over. Quickly snuck up behind him and stealth killed... an FYI in case anyone else is struggling

Submit

This prosthetic tool is so cool and bad ass looking... Too bad I suck at using it :'(

Submit

Can someone confirm this item does not work against grabs ? I was experimenting stuff to defeat Snake Eyes Shirahagi and tried to use this tool to dodge her grab, but no matter the timing I always got caught. I'll try it out on different ennemies but I'd like to know if someone already tested this.

Submit

Free tip, this blocks the damage of lighting. You will still be stunned but take no damage, makes Genichiro a joke.

Submit

If you want to beat the guard without cheese, try fighting more aggressively. When you land a hit, keep attacking even when they start blocking. Don't stop until they are perfect parrying you, then dodge/parry a few times until they leave an opening, then rinse and repeat. Be aggressive, works better in this game.

Submit

Get the floating passage combat art, weave in a full volley of swings with it, then jump back. Keep out of range of his combos, then repeat the process when he's open. Took me a few tries but ended up killing him with vit damage alone in around 2 minutes.

Submit

So youll notice he flies around like crazy. I (without meaning to) made him jump off the cliff and die. Just fight near there and try the same

Submit

If you just run directly to the door and open it he won't be able to hit you (cut scene invulnerability) and you can hit E or the console equivalent, Dodge his next attack and high tail it outta there lol

Submit

I aggroed him ran away jumped off the cliff and when I climbed back up I was able to run past him and get the treasure

Submit

Just spam the guard with that magic-loaded-ass.. *ahem* axe. He also can't swim, go figure.

Submit

this tool is insanely op. getting good with it reduces the difficulty so much.

Submit

Who is editing this wiki? The most basic instructions i have ever read.

Submit

Guys how can u use this prosthetic in combat..?Cause when i use it ,i can see the animation but nothing else happens..I mean whats the purpose of it.??

Submit

I snuck up on the ninja guard and assassinated him. Idk why it was so easy for me but that's how I managed to kill him after barely escaping the initial fight with my life.

Submit

You thinking what I’m thinking? Aim for the bushes? “There goes my hero. Watch him as he goes.” This jumping off the cliff method certainly works. You aim for the water, he aims for the bushes, and dies.

Submit

go around him and open the door before he catches you.. didnt even fought him

Submit

The trick is to use loaded axe and just spam him when he does the kick attack

Submit

So, found an interesting method to finish off the bothersome ninja. Might work for you, or it might not. Right of the small temple where the Mist Raven is located there is a small ledge. With bit of cat and mouse with the guarding ninja, you may be able to confuse the AI to get stuck to higher ground while you remain below the ledge. Ninja, for whatever reason, refuses to jump down, and instead will try to combo you just bit out of his reach. With bit of luck, you may be able to chip away his HP this way.

Submit

I met him fairly early game, he was pretty tough... I had to use Oil and roast him with the Flame Vent to get rid of him, he was basically filling my posture bar in 3 hits.

Submit

when you aggro him drag him next to the cliff, then jump off into the water. aggro will break and after a lil bit of him walking back, you can just backstab him.

Submit

Fought him for like 15 times, needed 1 more hit to kill him, and we both jumped off that god damn cliff. Gave me a scrap iron and something else(likely a random candy) and respawned after rest. It's pretty hard to bait him down the cliff(or to just kill him early on), but you can just run past him, open the door, grab the tool then run.

Submit

I accidentally killed the guy guarding it because he fell off the cliff next to me, he was tough as ***** until then
