Was always there for me
its going for a trade in, im fed up with these broken games
Wont get any better on any other console or PC either tho
Dont know i just dodged them
Those things are easy anyway the game auto aims to them 2 arrows will kill them so just Jump double tap b to shoot 2 arrows and kill them, they always have arrows around when needed anyway on a dead body or what not

The game isn't broken, but it does an unacceptable amount of problems. Earlier I decided to start playing through on Way of the Warrior, and there's a part in Chapter 2 where you open a door and go onto a bridge, then it closes behind you and some enemies appear. You can't get out from the enclosed area until you kill all the enemies. TWICE I had to restart the chapter because an enemy got stuck behind the door at the other end of the bridge, meaning I couldn't kill him, so I was stuck in the enclosed area.

Cheers man! (Jeez needing advice on the 3rd level! Maybe I should have chosen the path of the Acolyte........)
These end bosses are giving me no end of hassle. I can defeat *** priest guy without using too many herbs, but the big guy next is just a hassle doing it with no healing done. If i miss and arrow or something he just splats me which is okay a couple of times, but pulling it off for the entire fight is annoying... then after dieing last time the game crashed on me. But it's not even giving disc read errors so i can blame my 360. I'm loving the game but it couldn't be mroe frustrating at a more frustrating time.
I am trying to go through on warrior at the same time now so i don't get frustrated with constant boss fighting, and i did find the second level boss a lot harder than i remember, the openings he has are much smaller and he uses combos at annoying times more often. Definatly not just a pure dmg/health increase for him.

The last bosses are not to bad, but heres a handy hint for you
Lives of a Thousand Gods
Do not use these straight away, on the last boss i had one of these and 9 Spirit Orb thingies and used them as health packs as not only do they boost your health they also reheal you upon useage
Also the final incarnation of the boss is pretty easy and can be done with one health bar, however make sure Ninpo is full - as using this at opportune moments will help even if the magic doesnt hurt the enemy you are invisible during its use and helps avoid damaging moves from bosses

How the hell do you fight on water? Im getting my ass handed to me by these spiky things in chapter five because there appears to be no way to block and whenever i attack i end up under water where they can attack me and i cant attack back.
you get a auto spear gun thingy in Chapter 5, if not run to nearest bit of land and they will follow you

Great minds think a like
(Is that a good thing with you though? 
)Its exactly what I do rather then waste my health items and you seem to get one in just about every level aswell. No point in really using it as soon as you get it since it only gives you a tiny health increase, which really doesnt make much difference at all.
One thing I'm not liking though is how you are only limited to 6 healing items (3 large, 3 small) and 1 Talisman of Rebirth because it will make the hardest difficulties next to impossible when it comes to boss fights.
If I knew they would further reduce the limit on healing Items I would have rather them kept the normal health bar instead of this regenerating one tbh.

You're not doing what I did are you?
Basically you have to shoot him in the face which does a bit of damage then the orb in his chest lights up and you shoot him there for massive damage
I didn't realise this so I was only shooting him in the face and it took god damn ages. If you use the proper tactic you should breeze through very quickly.
You've just gotta be fast with the arrows. Dodge the bloody stuff he spits out afterwards with about 2 dashes and a jump then fire another arrow asap. If you're fast enough he barely has a chance to attack. Probably the hardest time to hit him is when he releases the skulls because sometimes he moves around and he tilts his head back making it a smaller target. If he does manage to release some skulls use the phoenix ninpo which will destroy all incoming skulls so you can get a shot at the face again.
I managed to do the last boss without using a single healing item.

One can hope
It is my mission to complete it on every difficulty and get 1000 on it
Though i only managed upto Chapter 8 on Master Ninja on NGB
I'm just taking my time, since its already getting on my nerves
"Have I missed a Skull?"
"Have I missed a Life of the Gods?"
"Have I missed a ToV?" (I did miss the item for it in chapter 2, so started a new game)
Then I proceed to restart the level or backtrack all the way through the level to make sure.
I'm just as bad with bosses when I've just beat them
"I've used too many healing items, time to try again!"
As a result I'm still at the chapter 3 boss
Don't worry, i know how to beat him and all. But i'm trying to do it without using any herbs to heal now so i have plent of leeway on the next boss/es.
It's just doing it all three times it quite a challenge for me, i just slip up too many times, and i only got three attempts on it before it crashed an i quit in a huff not wanting to do the previous boss again without using too many herbs either

Playing through on Way of the Warrior atm, decided to get the Dragon Sword master achievement whilst I'm at it, but looking at the other weapon achievements - eg. Lunar Staff Master - Complete the game using only the Lunar Staff, how the hell are you supposed to do that? You don't start off with the with Lunar Staff, you have to use the Dragon Sword until you obtain it.
