Phase 2 - Tips

- Just like the phase one but with some additional changes and attacks.
- The jump followed by a poison attack so be careful not to be poisoned, especially as his anti-care stuff blocks the use of antidotes too.

- His firecracker technique is more dangerous and will require you to dash back to dodge quickly. Forget the posture damage, they are really bad.
