In the first phase Non-Able fights with his hands tied using only his legs. This phase is all about conserving resources for the tougher second phase. Use Immobilize sparingly maybe once during this phase.

Be ready to dodge at any moment even during your light attack combos. If you notice Non-Able preparing an attack dodge backward. Some of his kicks are incredibly quick and can interrupt your combos.

If you’ve defeated the Wandering Wight boss in Chapter 1 consider using its Spirit. It gives you +20 Defense which can help you survive Non-Able’s relentless attacks.

Non-Able: Phase Two Battle

When you deplete Non-Able’s health bar in Phase One he’ll break his restraints and enter Phase Two. He’ll now use both his arms and legs making him even more dangerous.

In this phase, focus on using Immobilize and Cloud Step as much as possible. These abilities help you deal damage while limiting Non-Able’s offense.

The Red Tides Transformation can also be useful. It allows you to deal significant damage or negate some incoming attacks since the Transformation has a separate health bar.
