Start with the base actions
Steam names sword attacks, dodges and head stomps as basic abilities. Test their timing and recovery before assuming a missing Kami power is the reason for every failed attempt.
Use one fight as a diagnostic
A first encounter should reveal whether the main problem is reading a pattern, closing distance, avoiding damage or using the arena. Record the exact failure before changing the route.
Keep retries comparable
Change one decision at a time. If you change boss, equipment assumptions and tactics together, the next result will not explain which adjustment mattered.
