Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice – Part 22: Father
It’s time to go back to Hirata and get the item you need for the Purification ending. Head on up to the bell, pray and you’ll go to Hirata. Some things are different this time.
You’re about to get involved into a fight with a Lone Shadow guy right inside the burning place. Beat him as fast as possible in order to stop him summoning wolves.
With him done, turn back, kill the two big guys and reach out the idol.
Now you should stealth kill as many enemies as possible. Consider turning a purple ninja into a puppet so that it takes care of the other purple ninjas. Meanwhile, you take care of the rest of the enemies.
Clean up everything before fighting Juzou the Drunkard. Remember him? Last time you had a friend that helped you fight this guy. But now, you’re alone. Prove Juzou that you don’t need anyone to take him down.
Enter inside the nearby building. There are some guys inside you need to take care of before traveling. There are also two idols inside. One of them you have hit before, the other one probably not. But anyway, you just need one. Once you’re done, travel to Ashina Outskirts – Outskirts Wall – Stairway to pick up some items(fat wax, yellow gunpowder, scrap iron) just in case. This next fight is potentially the hardest fight in the game and you want to be fully prepared for it.
Travel to Hirate Estate Chamber.
Kill the Spear guy first and then make sure you have the prosthetic tool on and the loaded umbrella. Now for this next fight, there is no cheat strategy that is going to work. If you did the Shura ending you might be a bit familiar with Owl’s fighting style. It’s again a two-phase fight. Phase one is almost identical to phase one in Shura ending. Phase two in the other hand is a little bit trickier. He’s going to summon a spirit owl. He can absorb the owl in his hand and throw it out at you.
With his death, you will have everything you need to obtain the last three endings.
