Let's Play Labyrinth of Touhou (Part 7)
And off to another boss fight. This one was rough and led to our first (reasonable) defeat.
Youmu and her Ghost Half:
For most people, if you are to lose any fight for the first time (not including the bloodseal boss), this would be it. Youmu has even more hp than Cirno and hits incredibly hard with both single target and aoe attacks. Her ghost half does less damage but hurts the party with paralyze and mass poison attacks.
Both characters in this fight have two phases and they switch to that phase when the other dies. So who you kill first decides how hard or easy the second phase is. Youmu in the first phase will stick to attacking the first and second slots with single targets. Occasionally she may do a multi target nature based attack that can really hurt. But her most powerful attack which is wind based, she will spend full action Focusing before using it making it easy to predict. Her second phase though, those rules go out the window. She will use any attack randomly on any random target including the last slot character. The ghost half's second phase is much like its first but will use a stronger multi target cold attack. But its far milder compared to Youmu's slashes.
Usually I go for Youmu first despite her having more hp to try and go for an easier second phase. But I fail to do this both times due to various reasons you will see in the video. The ghost is vulnerable to spirit attacks. Youmu can be paralyzed but she is resistant and its rare you will get one that lasts that long on her unless you are New Game+. Speed debuffs work far better and will allow you more time to adapt between her heavy attacks. Youmu has ok Defense but is rather vulnerable to magic.
I will talk more about Youmu in the next video's comments.
