How to unlock the Defiler of Taboos achievement in Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon - Definitive Guide
It will unlock after beating Stage 7 on normal or casual mode on your first playthrough.
This is an easy fight if you understand the patterns and react quickly.
Here's what you should do:
- Using Zangetsu or Miriam, crouch and wait for the first attack;
- Jump over the blue block highlighted that is next to the boss and hit him 2 to 4 times;
- When he grabs on the sides of the room, move to the blue block that is not red-targeted, hitting the boss if possible;
- Wait on top of this block until the block in which you stand is red-targeted;
- Jump down quickly and position yourself on the floor facing the block where you came from e close to it;
- Crouch and spam regular attack until blue blocks highlight again;
- Repeat.
Please refer to this video by YouTube user DenSetsu for the complete fight:
Story related and cannot be missed.
You must beat the seventh stage, Defiler of Taboos.
Partway through the stage you’ll find the Armor upgrade. Zengatsu can reach this with Soul Arts if you don't have allies.
The boss this round is a chimera-like creature named Bathin. It surrounds the entire stage in thorns, creates blocks that you can stand on to attack him before targeting them with red reticles and destroying them. Stand on the blue blocks when they appear, avoid the ones with the red reticles.
The desperation move is the same block reticle attack, only this time there is a block in the center. It will then spawn four of itself to attack the center in a suicide attack. It doesn’t do much damage if you happen to get hit in the end.
