Can't reply or quote again but seconded what Sunstrider said assuming you mean the spear mini boss.

@Rapterchris, I take back what I said about having explored well, while I thought I had every area of every place I can find I did not and probably still don't. I went back from start to finish this evening and I found loads of secrets including an NPC, a mini boss and two random Prayer beads as well as loads of items in nooks and crannies I had missed. I bet that for still plenty to find as I came upon a really, really well hidden prayer bead and items completely by accident in a place I never would have found or even thought to look, I'm going to wait until I'm positive I'm in end game and watch a guide to clean up, I checked and they provide a notification to let you stay or go to NG+ so there is no worries about missing anything in the world.

It´s not the spear mini boss, it´s an enemy in a hidden area after him, and now I think the spear mini boss is honestly a joke compared to him

Yeah, you're talkin about the purple dude at the three story pagoda. I managed to beat him early on. I was very persistent and it took maybe a dozen tries.

@John: I explore pretty thoroughly so I don't think I've missed very many things along the way so far. Although I suppose that if I missed something I wouldn't know it, so... Instead, I'll say that I'd be very surprised if I found out that I missed more than a few items along the way.

I played for a couple more hours last night and finished Senpou Temple, getting my fourth memory. I have four prayer necklaces as well, putting me at 5 attack power and 14 vitality (IIRC). I have 8 sips of rejuvenating water and some pretty convenient consumables now (Ako's re-usable item).

Since I am playing through the game in the order the areas appear in my travel long, that means that next available is Sunken Temple. So everything "before" that I consider to be cleared. I also finally got my first ultimate skill, Shadowrush.

I'm really liking the amount of organic growth as a player that I'm feeling with this game. Health and damage upgrades aside, I feel like I am consistently getting better and more confident at this game. Each new enemy is a fun set of mechanics to try and learn the timing of, and it's very satisfying to play this game.
