Assuming it's a world's first with all these restrictions, but I could be wrong. Ugh, Lady Butterfly phase 2 is basically the entire gauntlet. Simply allowing shurikens would've made it 100000x easier, but I'm too stubborn, lol. Also, for the pedants, by "no skills" I mean no skills purchased with skill points.

I decided to go get Sakura Dance for the final phase, just so I could use an extra poison in second phase Isshin and greatly speed that phase up. This fight is 100% managing to not get memed for 30 or so minutes, lol. Ill be trying to do this sword only at some point, so that will end up being like an hour long fight. o_o")

The trick here is to let his poise meter go down some time before the midway point of first phase. If you dont, you will VERY often get a stun with the last hit of P1, resetting his poise meter for P2. The best place to let his poise meter fall is during the big axe slam followed by an explosion, as it usually happens at a nice point in P1. Keep in mind that he has a 9 second timer before he starts regaining poise. Its actually usually fine if his poise goes all the way back down to 0, as long as it happens before halfway thru P1 and he doesnt bleed any more poise later.
Also, you have to get an R2 before the critical hit in P2 or he wont automatically phase transition (at least with these stats, but youre very unlikely to have much better damage than this with the Reduvia).")
