How to Beat Hero Josee

Checkmark Parry Her Melee Attacks
Checkmark Stay at Close Range to Avoid Hits

Parry Her Melee Attacks

Hero Josee makes use of Rune Blades to deliver sweep attacks at mid-range. We recommend equipping the Mutinous Bracer to parry her Rune Blade attacks as they are easily telegraphed due to their slow animations.

Additionally, you can also make use of the Reaper Jail as an alternative to parry her melee attacks and regain Ichor at the same time.

Stay at Close Range to Avoid Hits

Stay at Close Range to Avoid Hits

Most of Hero Josee's attacks are capable of hitting you at mid-range due to the long reach of her Rune Blades. When she starts summoning various Flame Pillars, try to stay at close range as much as you can since her pillars can track and hit you accurately if you are too far.

Hero Josee Location

Found at Josee's Outpost in Sunken City

Hero Josee Location

You can find Hero Josee at the Josee's Outpost in the Sunken City during the Timeline Shift Decision: Josee questline. Take note that this has to be in the 2277: The Present timeline in order for you to access the Hero Josee boss fight.
