The Crow Demons of Otsuna

The Crow Demons of Otsuna is the fifth story mission of Ghost of Tsushima: Legends. It revolves around finding and stopping the source of a new enemy, Tengu.


Game Mechanic – Tengu

Tengu, or crow demons, are troublesome enemies mainly because they shoot a barrage of crows at players, blocking the field of view while also dealing damage. Additionally, they wield a spear and have attacks similar to other spearmen.

Running, not rolling or dodging, in circles around tengu will prevent you from getting hit by the crows. Perfect parrying tengu will also interrupt the crow barrage momentarily. Tengu should be targeted prior to most other enemies and dealt with from the smoke and shadows for best results.
