How to beat the Aberrant Three-Faced Puppet in Phantom Blade Zero
Defeat this tricky boss in the Triple-Threat quest.
The Aberrant Three-Faced Puppet is an optional boss in Phantom Blade Zero, but it's not advisable to face her initially due to insufficient strength and damage output. Patience is key when tackling this boss. Focus on returning later in the game when you have stronger weapons and accessories, as defeating her early on won't grant any useful rewards.
Upgrade your weapon, accessories, and obtain the Livingwood Talisman for increased damage and improved defenses. Dodge her smoky black attacks to conserve stamina, and maintain constant aggression against her to deplete her Sha-Chi. Upon defeating her, you'll receive the Three-Headed Doll story item, which is a stepping stone for the Triple Threat quest.
This quest becomes available later in the game when you're exploring the final areas in Pangzhen, where you'll need to find three Memory Flowers leading you to a rematch against the puppet. To prepare for this rematch, gather the necessary Soul Tempered weapon and fragments, then return to the Crimson Forest for the final confrontation.
