Battle

Asura has several deadly attacks:

  • Ceaser's Thrust, which inflicts paralysis,
  • Tyrants Mace, which deals physical damage (numbing), and
  • Heaven's Tear, which damages your MP.

She opens the battle with Surging Balm and attacks relentlessly for the duration of the battle.

Strategy

Ashley will likely be doing 0 damage to Asura. To counteract this, he can use a Heavy Shot and Crimson Pain chain to deal meaningful damage to Asura. At the start of the battle, the player can try inflicting her with Leadbones, which she is not immune to, which will cancel out the Surging Balm and she will waste time restoring it.

The player should never give her a gap to use any of her attacks and make sure to keep your health up.

Etymology

Asuras (Sanskrit: असुर) are mythological lord beings in Indian texts who compete for power with the more benevolent devas (also known as suras). Asuras are described in Indian texts as powerful superhuman demigods or demons with good or bad qualities.

Asura is known as Ashura (阿修羅, Ashura?) in Japan, mostly portrayed as a six-armed god wielding different weapons in each hand.

Vishnu (Sanskrit: विष्णु, Viṣṇu) is a popular Hindu god, venerated as the Supreme Being in the Vaishnava sect.
