- Dagra Dai is assisted by three Van Gelfs.
2
Initially, avoid using Ninpo and focus on defeating the Van Gelfs with the Scythe, while evading Dagra Dai's attacks.
3
Dagra Dai often floats; shoot him down with charged arrows or the Windmill Shuriken to force him to attack head-on.
4
When Dagra Dai is alone, rush in and perform combos. Evade his tentacle whip and counter with your own combos. There's no specific weakness, so be aggressive.

When Van Gelfs reappear, use Wind Blades Ninpo to defeat them quickly.
