How to Beat Native Dancer Video Guide

Use Death Glove Skills

Use Death Slow to counter his rapid, close-ranged fighting. Similarly, use Death Force to prevent him from wall-running or to blast him away when you need to charge. When he creates multiple copies of himself, use Death Rain's projectiles to help deal damage.

Death Glove Skills Guide

Use Wrestling Moves

Native Dancer can be stunned by mashing him with combos. When stunned, perform a wrestling move on Native Dancer to deal massive damage and replenish your power.

How to Perform Wrestling Moves

Use Full-Armor Against Duplicates

If the Slash Reel gives you Full-Armor Mode during the battle, make sure to save it until he creates multiple copies of himself, as they're very difficult to deal with all at once. It will also ensure you defeat him quickly so he doesn't create even more duplicates.

Yellow Phase

Red Phase

Native Dancer runs up the side of the metal construction then launches at Travis. In the Yellow Phase, this attack is just a melee attack that can be blocked.

In the Red Phase, the attack becomes a ground slam that sends outward a shockwave blast that needs to be jumped over.

Nightreaper Mode

In the Red Phase, Native Dancer creates a pair of copies of himself that have all previously mentioned attacks. Each copy has its own HP shown above their head, which is separate from Native Dancer's main HP. After a pair of duplicates is defeated, he will create another pair.
