Notes and Tips

Use Masuta against the Lich as his Dim Mak prevents the Lich from healing (Sacrifice), making him easier to be dealt with.

Also, Masuta will definitely come in handy in the level Coarse Climb (19-7). Jade Demon Karu has several healing abilities (and several other abilities that increases damage dealt and therefore, healing), and those healing abilities can be mitigated via Dim Mak.

In a nutshell, just use Masuta (obviously must be in his 2nd ascension) whenever you face enemies that have annoying healing abilities.

Additionally, his ability to purge enemy abilities using Death Blossom is very useful as well when encountering enemies that rely on buffs.
