Ninja Gaiden Sigma Boss Battle Ishtaros -Very Hard-

[rudorot65]

@nairad100 in my opinion I know the series is known for its challenge and I just found all the times she grabbed me was just getting annoying and throwing me off in the middle of the fight

[zzXninjaGamerXzz]

all of my cousins tried to beat this bitch and almost half of them Rage Quitted and after we were done killing her the fucking power went off -_- and the game didnt save D:

[Brooksy19811]

I hate this fucking bitch. Marbus was a piece of piss after her

[garrato8]

hardest

fucking

boss

in

ninja gaiden black

EVAR!

[Life4Bl00d]

trust me alma is worse

[rudorot65]

wow this i think is the weirdest demon in the world even in the ds game she is basically wearing no clothes and i swear in the ds game it looks like shes topless and they've cut her nipples off i cant believe they show that on a e10+ but either way the post 2004 ninja gaiden games such as black and 2 are awesome and the ds is hard as hell like them

[nairad100]

@rudorot65 the ds 1 was easy!

[uploaded000]

@rudorot65 Ninja gaiden is rated M. -.- not e10+...

[Renatar567]

I hated this bitch so much T_T

It's like: Ok so you think you're a ninja? Well try to beat Nichae! Wasn't that hard eh? Well here's her sister and she's got a whip! Damn dindit think you'd make it, but well you still gotta defeat Marbus. Very good you killed him. Make ready for the Vigoor Emperor. O what's this? His second form! Wow you just killed 5 bosses in row... But your still not6 done fucking bitch, you still gotta kill murai!

AND THAT WITHOUT ANY MURAMASA SHRINE!!!!!!!!!!!!

[GundamGalore]

Sorry about double posting. Firefox was acting up.

[GundamGalore]

All this talk about graphics again? Is that why everyone plays games these days, just graphics? Eyes are easily pleased.... I for one don't care about what graphics a game has aslong as it has gameplay addicting enough to keep me playing. As for you fan-boys comparing consoles. Save yourself a lot of bitching and moaning and just buy both consoles you're trying to compare. (Unless your parents have you under the whip).

[Enj0yTheSil3nce]

this boss was an incredible pain in your ass tear your fucking hair out kind of issue she was the biggest bitch in the game even on normal she was a fucking skank

[Nicholas121093]

i fight her on normal???????

[KoreanBackdash]

she was one of the two new bosses from the second downloadable Masterninja tournament from NG1 (Xbox)

[DarkKadan]

Huuh so Ishtaros was a bonus boss in Sigma before Itagaki put her in Dragon Sword, never knew.

[proz200]

man this is to easy u should really try it on NG black on master ninja its so hard the speed defense and offense of that ishitaro is incopareble

[splashy44]

wtf!..i complete this game..this boss was not in it!!??...is this ps3 sigma?

[sonicteams]

yeah, this is the ps3 sigma game

[azazel166]

In Ninja Dog and Normal Difficulties this boss Does not fight Ryu.

[xinguon119932]

she is alma in fase bitch and no is ishtaros

[vulwing]

Wow. And I thought Alma put up a good fight. I'm playing on Very Hard right now and I can't wait to take her on.

[gosthwriter]

This enemy is really easy, the trick is stay close to her but careful with her attacks, also you can burn the bitch with the fire wheels when you can't hit her.

[N5FTL]

Yeah but how the hell did you defeat marbus who is after istharos since you used most of your supplies man ???P.S.Flying Swallow doesnt work the true strtegy is to go up close use hard combos not with true dragon but with mk II Plasma sword I found out it's much better than true dragon sword(although they have the same techniques)

[Tremblay343]

lol ninpo

[redrosefriendy]

Why do they that Ishtaros is Rachel?

[ElDargo]

im new to this game if someone could tell me how to power up like in 1 second that would be great

[SpadeKing6]

with the sword?

u have to suck up those orbs with it

[Neigeblackswan]

That sexy betch reminds me of reboot... >_> Was she in the original Ninja Gaiden?

[jvp117]

no. she was in ninja gaiden black though

[246trinitrotoluene]

that's kinky

[BRINGEROFCHAOS888]

This guy is ok...no where near great.

First he died then used a talisman of rebirth and used a ton of ninpo.

[phyrlord]

In the ninja gaiden black missions, she is literally 3 times faster then this (on normal), and has enemy's spawning around.

[killag11]

HOW DO U power up ure nipo spells like the fire ball how can make it do more dmg adn stronger? plz message me

[xrhstos1994]

there are some orbs u have 2 find in order 2 upgrade ur spells

[Sasukee3]

anyone kno if there is like a free mode or something after you beat the game you can play as rachel or ryu cause im on chapter 5 barley lol and playing as rachel when do i play as ryu again?

[thenigma22]

noooooooooooooooooo

[nintendoslaaf]

I played it now ishtaros attacks the same as in sigma

[xoblivion123]

just like the DS, a pain in the ass lol

[nintendoslaaf]

one more thing why is ryu blue

[RyuahayabusaX]

[nintendoslaaf]

does that also mea there isn't gonna be a bossbattle with ishtaros and nicchae on the ds

(cry,cry)

[nintendoslaaf]

can somebody help me I don't get it anymore in ninja gaiden ds ishtaros and nicchae are the bad guys does that mean they don't die in ninja gaiden ds.

PS:if so that sucks because I don't have a PS3

[brandonelisha]

NG2 will go to PS3, becaus this is what they said about the first NG, on the case it even said "XBOX ONLY".....PS3 will gget it within in a few years, just a better version like Sigma

[EYEsoFLY]

NG2 is not for ps3, wil never be. hey at least ps3ers get god of war 3. thats a game i want but i only have xbox so i get NG2.

[NinjaRyu666]

wow i have to say, im quiet happy that i got me a 360 the other xmas, cus tbh, sigma isnt much better then black and black is fuckin awsome, the only prob now is i cant play MGS4 :'( ahwell it'll come to 360 soon enough, theres apparently a subsistence version comin to exlusively 360 =D

[negrois]

i doubt mgs4 is coming to the 360.if you have not heard mgs4 is to big to fit on a blue ray disk which is 50gb(they are compressing and cutting stuff now.)a xbox 360 disk is only 9gb.you would need 5 or more disks to play it on 360.

[NinjaRyu666]

i no i heard about it a few days AFTER i write this comment...ahwell, i still have hope :D

[MasterSamuraiRyu]

lol! the collection is for the ps2 and mgs4 will never come to the 360 they ran out of blu-ray disk space,BLU RAY anyways i dont think the 360 can handle it tho.

[kevinahipeaud]

sans aucun intérêt !

[geri505]

do u vs her in hard mode????

[Str8OuttaKashville]

nah dis boss is easiest in the game, jus gta kno hw to beat her, when she kicks you roll forward and slash slash slash.

[thelostkin]

unfortunately, ninja gaiden 2 is only for the xbox... i got so pissed after i heard the news... i had a great time with ninja gaiden sigma... too bad for ps3 owners

[cookiehours]

Don't lose too much hope yet. There must be a reason why Sigma is on the PS3.

[IiIbao]

I think Itagaki just put it on the PS3 to test out the system and the sales of the game.

[IiIbao]

I think Itagaki just sold his "career" to Xbox because since the first Xbox came out he probably became hypnotized by it to think that it's the best console on the market.

[cookiehours]

He has yet to even see the true potential of the PS3. ~.~

[IiIbao]

Yeah, I pity Itagaki.  Maybe he should take off his "shades" for once if you know what I mean. lol

[cookiehours]

I hear ya.

[IiIbao]

If you look at Itagaki's games in another perspective, they all contain some sort of sexuality. So basically sex is a key importance in his development of games. Ninja Gaiden could be great too even w/o sexy women and the exaggeration of the breasts. The sexuality in his games are too excessive.

[cookiehours]

Lol, that reminds me of Rachel's breast. o-o

[IiIbao]

You mean breasts. Rachel isn't "unibreast."

[cookiehours]

Rofl, breasts dammit, breasts. xDDDD

*kicks self*

[IiIbao]

I think Itagaki will find Xbox disappointing and not that worthwhile to make games for if Microsoft doesn't do anything to improve the format of their games. As in upgrade to HD-DVDs. Since Itagaki is a cocky person and likes to show off his skills in game design he probably only looks for what he thinks is the best console. Once Blu-Ray has improved games will become better on the PS3 and differences can be easily told between the 2 consoles referring to Xbox 360 and PS3.

[cookiehours]

Yeah, like I said-he has yet to witness what the PS3 can do. I mean, I have nothing against the 360 but I think it's unfair that NG2 is coming ONLY for that console.

[IiIbao]

Well, Xbox fans also see it unfair that MGS4 and FF13 is coming out only on PS3. I guess that's the way things are.

[cookiehours]

Unfortunately.

[geri505]

your right

[IiIbao]

Right about what?

[EYEsoFLY]

yes i do think thats very unfair, but at least i get NG2

:D

and i guess ill play mgs4 and ff13 at my friends house... once he gets a ps3

[ryuhayabusa5]

lol lilbao i don't realy care i have both consoles as long as its a game containing ryu hayabusa on whatever console im gonna buy it no matter what HAYABUSA IS THE BEST!!

[IiIbao]

Then I know you're gonna stick to Xbox a lot.

[X1TWISTED1X]

NG 2 will NEVER come to PS3 so stfu and buy a 360 as well instead of shiting on it! i have both consoles so im stuck in the middle but i must say PS3 doesnt even compare....and im a huge ass sony fan

[IiIbao]

Ninja Gaiden probably will never come to PS3, but I mean that's really not a big deal. There are many other games out there to play. A person can play PC, Wii, or w/e. I have faith in SONY.

[masterz365]

are u serious ps3 has exclusive final fantasies coming out and its a bluray player and it has better graphics

[brandonelisha]

Yea thats what they said abot NG going to PS and we see how that turned out....

Thats also what happened to Devil May Cry, it ended up on the 360

So you never know but games like MGS4 will never be on the 360......And if it was it would be downgraded horendously!

[masterz365]

dude 360 will lose since next gen consoles were made mostly cause of graphics in which ps3 owns 360. Besides they made crysis exclusively for da ps3 cause da 360 cant handle da graphics

[MrNoobWarrior]

@masterz365  who cares about fuckin graphics u tart

[cookiehours]

NG2 may not come on the PS3 but if Team Ninja makes a NG3, it will probably come on BOTH consoles. :D

Even then, a different version of 2 might come too. You never know so don't speculate. :D

[oraiyon]

I thought Sigma was a new ninja gaiden game =(

booring... when comes ninja gaiden 2?

[YIMEK]

VIGORIAN FLAILS FTW

[rightword]

Do you fight the other sister?

[MTKillaTheKing]

sigma seems way easier then black! because it took me 11 times to beat this bitch! i beat her using the dark dragon blade!

[BRINGEROFCHAOS888]

I USE GRAGON SWORD:)

[RedShiftx]

Off all the bosses in NG: Black...THis one is by far the hardest. (dont own PS3) Is it the same in Sigma?

[ZettaiBaka]

It's easier when you have lots of Ninpo, unlike in Mission Mode, where she has support that spawns four times during the battle, and you are given only one Ninpo slot.

[Simslifesigh]

i hate it when she knocks you out of your combo

[maggot4lifesk8er]

whats the best weapon to use other than the dd sword.

[candyhour]

The Lunar at maximum.

[sujabals]

I use the dark dragon blade on her.

[dxpacman]

i like dragon claw and tiger fang(if you don't know there those 2 swords)

[dxpacman]

srry i meant to put this as a reply to maggots question.

[KingSparda]

heres what i suggest for her. when she does her whip combo block the first then roll towards her and to her side whilc blocking, youll dodge the whip and leave her open to attack

[legalprofessor]

that was awesome. what happens once you beat eternal legend? I'm up to phase 5 but cant beat it. This boss is too difficult for me. By the way, how do you manage to block her kicks like that? I've been trying but to no avail.

[Crazee108]

Man i always died by ishtaros in eternal legend =[

[candyhour]

Just beat the game and unlocked very hard. I'm scared to fight it now so I have to get better w/ Ryu.

That bitch looks hard. o_o

[furbolg99]

dont worry she's ez 1v1. but when paired up wit the ancient that kinda looks like alma... watch ur back... literally

[candyhour]

Ouch. :(

Thanks for the tip.

[JamZ102]

i hate fightin her but well played

[Diabolo666]

anyway..why team ninja changed the hard mode??? anyway i got the 50 missions completed and i wanted to play this version, but i was waiting for somthing harder...this is a kiddos thing.

wut vcan i say ps3 ownas....y'all aint playin the real ninja gaiden mode. :D

[Sathan1]

I have the PS3 and Xbox 1 versions, and it is clear that you don't know what you're talking about. The difficulties are basically the same, the combat has been minutely altered in Sigma however. Very Hard and Master Ninja from Black to Sigma are basically the same, if not a little harder for those used to the Xbox version.

[smsjgoku]

@Sathan1 actually sigma is easier because of the fact of how easy it is to use an elixer it doesnt seem like much but trust me its makes a hell of a difference

[Sathan1]

@smsjgoku That has nothing to do with the combat engine. I am aware that the shortcuts help, but I am speaking specifically about the difficulty of the Ishtaros and other boss fights and the technicality of the combat system. Whether you can activate an elixir more easily might be more convenient but it makes no difference. Pausing and using an elixir is more 'annoying' but pressing pause and pressing a shortcut take the same amount of time to execute and you will get the elixir in either way.

[smsjgoku]

@Sathan1 it actually does make difference because in the xbox versions if you got grabbed you couldnt use elixers and thats where the extra difficulty comes in

[Sathan1]

@smsjgoku That's fine -- that has NOTHING to do with the COMBAT ENGINE (in other words, Ryu's blocking and striking timing, in terms of being interrupted mid -move by an enemy attack.

This was tweaked in NGS but my point was, the tweakings didn't make the game any easier or notably harder. The elixir shortcuts have nothing to do with those alterations. Is that clear now?

[smsjgoku]

@Sathan1 ill tell you why i think it made it easier because say if you got grabbed by an enemy in the xbox version you couldnt use a health vial so if you wa low on health you couldnt save your self from dieing even if you had the vials in sigma however that was no longer a problem and i also think the ninpos before the controller is haken are the same as before but after i think theyre stronger but apart from those 2 thing the difficulty is the same i think

[Diabolo666]

and i played in all modes...since normal to master, in the past game..you couldnt hit da boss in the front...it was tomake combos....i mean..i know everysingle boss move...and this ps3 one has been changed(easier)..this way you'll never gona know why ninja gaiden was known in the xbox

[Diabolo666]

hey i played the original(xbox) and let me tell yall that this version is very easy..because this boss was very hard to kill....i say this beacuse i consider myself a master ninja on it

[whourdada]

talk about ego

[Warturtle117]

awesome combos

[bitchasswolfboy]

man finally someone posts this boss i never could beat her, and by the way how did u get talesman of rebirth on the mission????? i play black and i never got that in not one of the missions, need an explanation! lol still nice post

[Yogonem]

There's a site with ninja gaiden black cheats, they tell you how to go through the game, and where you find the talismans of rebirth and all the goodies.

You can use google, or yahoo, to search for ninja gaiden black cheats, then you'll find a few sites who tell you where to find all the good stuff.

[furbolg99]

only useful to find the scarabs. the best and most effective weps, in my opinion are true dragon and flail maxed out XD

[mkf123456789]

has any1 noticed the fact that she and her sister look a bit like rachel ? come on eaven ishtaros have that arm that looks like the throw weapon of rachel ???

[darkerbatosai]

Beautifully done! ^-^

[vegeta1992]

lol, mkm has TERRIBLE grammar, i cant take his post serious at all, everytime i read what he has to say, i laugh so hard. hes just making a fool out of himself telling someone how to play this game. u should just stfu mister "pro".

[jonny2090]

cool.

[mkm92]

usin 2 many ninpo, jus keep a medium dist( not too far dat she does her beam attack, nt too close dat she hits u) until she charges at u. dodge n hit her bout 3 times, NOT a whole combo! den when she does her swingy thingy, charge up true dragon gleam(spinny UT) n let go when she is JUST bout to hit you when she dives down.

[bethodman]

nice

[furbolg99]

her weakness... fite her up close n... w/e u do dont run away!!

[mkm92]

dats nt her main weakness, n u dun stick to glue to her.

[furbolg99]

course not. wat i meant is dont run away like a coward. every1 has to windroll to get away some point or another. n u hav to run to dodge some attks neways. if u pro u should know wat i mean

[mkm92]

i got ur last part, abt nt runnin away. but i usually let her charge at me den i roll away n hit her.... jus saying, it works for me.

[cryptblood1986]

I remember having to beat this boss in one of the missions in black after going through 3 bosses lol. She's tough to beat without using an elixir.

[Hermitage171]

ok cool, but where's your skill? (you used a talisman, then posted it on the internet = wha?)

[Bladebreaker08]

was she in black, I never saw her

[aazazaz]

yep in missions and mastewr ninja just before u fight the dragon marbus

[BlackpoisonFire]

Nichae and ishtaros are twinfiend sisters alma was just a copy of nichae.they're not related to Rachel at all! Who keeps telling those stupid things ?! Ishtaros is almost impossible to beat for me You did a nice job ;)

[OMGBBQONE321]

Man I remember her, she knew exactly when to use grab attacks, I would jump up and slice then as soon as i'd land she'd whip my feet and do that asshole move on me.

[arseface90]

umm... why dont you use the square, square, square then triangle...after you dodge her... she will defintely get hit even if its 4 hit....

[tuber52]

that seems hard i bet i will never do that

[Jayson619]

Hopefully NO FIENDS WILL ACCOMPANY HER IN NINJA MASTER MODE! THAT'LL BE CHEATING!

[SonicRidder01]

lawl, HOORA FOR ARCADE COSTUME RYU! <3

[rytango]

she's part of a fiend legend like Niche. not related to Rachel or Alma in any way.

probly the most clever boss IMO. she responds to different combos and not just the same 3 button combos over and over.

i've NO idea why you used the Fire Ninpo! lol she keeps dodging this!

use the Firewheel instead, you can just roll around her and she'll take quite a hit.

[starkstouch]

limit your combos to like 3 hits , shes a hit and away boss. u did good though thumbs up

[TelvanniGuard]

Some people say she's the 'evil' version of Rachel (because of the whip). Just like Fiend Alma (and Nichee) are the evil versions of Alma.

[TeinCave]

Does she still laugh?

[VONiiii]

Who is she? Rachel's and Alma's lost sister? :)

[Josiahkf]

Pretty well done. If you keep to 2 or 3 button combos you can do this untouched.

She really was a great designed boss though.

good vid

[sasuke2345]

she most been hard cause she own you man but you get better can own her back soon.
