Boss - Genma Wasp

This boss appears hard and can actually be quite a pain if you don't see the
warnings for his attacks, but all you have to do is watch his head. The wasp
will always hiss right before it does an attack. He will do one of three
attacks after hissing. He will either release poison from his mouth in the
area next to him, try to slice you with his arm, or release a gust of wind from
his mouth. The gust and arm are both blockable, but you must move away from
the arm so it does not hit you twice since the first hit will break your guard.
You will have to move away from the area around its head when it spews poison.
The good thing about its attacks is that it will hit the Genma around the area
and most likely kill them releasing tons of souls around the room. The boss
will constantly drop eggs from its egg sac, which Genma will hatch out of. The
eggs can be destroyed but it really doesn't matter whether you destroy them or
not since there will be about five eggs at a time.

Hit the wasp in the head with any weapon of your choosing to damage it. It can
be hit at any time, but make sure to back off and prepare for its attack
whenever it hisses. Issue out the order for Roberto to "Wait and Recover"
whenever the wasp hisses in order for him to last a bit longer. Keep an eye on
the Genma around you as well while attacking the wasp, since they can sometimes
block you off when you try to dodge the wasp's attacks. It's best not to even
worry about the Genma and just let the wasp kill them. As long as you watch
the wasp very closely and react when it hisses you won't have any problems.
