How to Beat Sanguine Sweeper

Use Defensive Assists to Shred Corruptive Barrier

Defensive Assists for Shredding Barrier

When Romeul accumulates a certain amount of Daze or takes a certain amount of DMG, he will put up a Corruptive Barrier, denoted by the purple bar replacing his HP gauge.

While this barrier is up, Agents will continuously lose HP, and DMG and Daze against Romeul will be reduced. He will then follow up with three lunging attacks, all of which are perfectly parryable.

Parry these strikes to quickly shred the Corruptive Barrier. Additionally, any attack countered by a Defensive Assist will also help bring down the barrier quickly!

Parry Control Skill

Parry Control Skill

Much like a lot of bosses starting from Version 2.5, the Sanguine Sweeper has a Control Skill that you need to watch out for.

Pay close attention to when he raises his sword and use Defensive Assists to negate any incoming DMG.

Successfully parrying all the Control Skill's hits will inflict Shutdown on Romeul and render him vulnerable for a short duration.
