How to unlock the Eluding the Dragon achievement in Nioh - Definitive Guide

Hands of the Dragon is a side mission that is unlocked after completing 'Spirit Stone Huntress'.
This mission is a dual boss fight against two human opponents. It's not too difficult but you need to be careful on Way of the Demon. Try to focus on one of them at a time and avoid the paralysis bombs, and don't be afraid to use Living Weapon if you are getting overwhelmed.

The chapter will open as the last one. You need to defeat two bosses - the ninja Katakura Shigenagi (the intermediate boss in the chapter Castle of the One-Eyed Dragon) and Date Shigezane (the human version of the very first boss from the DLC). The ninja uses many ninjutsu techniques, while the samurai strikes with odachi at close range. I killed the ninja first, weakening him as much as possible with throwing weapons (kunai and bombs) and using a pull-up strike (hold ) from the top post of the kusarigama. Then he easily finished off Date using classic slowdown tactics. In general, this is an ordinary pair of human bosses according to the principle of one fast, the other strong. For those who completed the original missions with two human bosses, this should not cause any difficulties.

The tactics with the guardian spirit talismans (almost at the very bottom of the Ommedo tab) helped me. Create 6 talismans and take the guardian spirit of the bull. In battle, you use a talisman, the bull knocks down the samurai, and all you have to do is finish off. It is important to kill the boss with an ax first, since the boss with an odachi, after losing half its HP, begins to summon a guardian spirit, which is almost impossible to dodge, and it kills in one go.

Everything below was tested at lvl 160 with pathetic +2/+3 equipment. So.

Scrolls of substitution, talismans of laziness, vulnerability, slaughter, steel and rejuvenation will be of great help in this battle. Power pills and various weapon buffs - according to your taste. For greater reliability, you can use three ordinary spirit stones (by the time you start this task, many will have a full inventory with them) to charge living weapons. We eat all this before the start of the battle.

As written above, it is preferable to remove Katakura (ninja with an ax) first, because the little scoundrel can spoil the entire field with ninjutsu traps and significantly complicate the passage.

Shigedzane, alone, does not pose a serious threat and is killed with 2-3 spins of the kusarigama in the top stance. A bunch of vulnerability and laziness talismans are quite enough without additional weapon buffs.
