I was watching Ongbal destroy Romeo with the Two Dragons Sword and saw a comment mentioning that a shit put would knock him out of his fire attack in phase 2. Turns out, for that to work you likely need some motivity for it to deal more damage or you need to have dealt some damage to him prior for him be staggered out of the animation, so I promptly died - definitely not as universally applicable as initially made out to be. Quite sad, but I managed without it, luckily
What weapon combination do you usually play? You could try the Live Puppet handle and a dagger on top for motivity scaling but faster attacks (at the cost of damage, sadly, but maybe easier to deal with overall)
Another funny thing I was made aware of for the fight: just use the special grindstone that auto-parries all attacks for a given amount of time. Never thought of doing that, but it’s actually genius - would have made the fight heaps easier
Oh I’m not interested in faster attacks. I’m interested in unga bunga, and Shot Put is but a means to an end. My grindstone is permanently on the stagger ATK buff.

It’s a godsend for motivity builds for sure. I’m not landing the charged heavy attack on the Nameless Puppet normally with a big slow hammer.

Gotcha! Which grindstone is that?
Destruction Grindstone
