๐Ÿง  The Strategy: Why Dodge Left + Ghost Walk Works

๐Ÿ‘ˆ Dodge Left to Break Combos

Lies of P Secret Boss Guide
A surprising number of players discovered that dodging left—specifically—can break entire attack strings from the boss in Phase 2.

This isn’t just habit—it’s a deliberate AI exploit. Dodging left throws off the boss’s tracking and causes red fury attacks to completely miss, opening a huge window to punish.
