After picking up the bow, there's a short cut scene which will lead to the Tengu demon boss fight. He is an easy boss, however, he hits hard and if you are not that well versed with the combat of Ghost of Tsushima, you will die.To defeat him you have to look out for two attacks, mainly-A vertical swing(similar to Sekiro Shadow Die Twice's Ichimonji) which has three forms-The first one is a single vertical swing with a sound prompt &quot;hnghhhh&quot;. The second one is a running vertical swing. Avoid this one at all costs as it will bring your health down to 1 HP. The third one is the same as Sekiro's double Ichimoji.You can easily dodge them, either sideways of by moving away from the boss. Try to break the guard first with your heavy strikes. The best stance to deal with this boss is the water stance and the stone stance. I used the water stance, as it offers a flurry of heavy attacks which make it easier to break guards.After defeating the boss you will get the longbow. To maximize the bow's power I prefer you to use the Tadayori legendary armor set which increases the reload, draw speed, and some other aspects of archery.Story of Ghost of Tsushima (Source: PlayStation)In the late 13th century, the Mongol empire has laid waste to entire nations along their campaign to conquer the East.
