In Lies of P, you fight to save Geppetto on the bridge, and you can beat this boss in two different ways. The first is to take down him normally, and the second is the cheese strategy. First of all, let’s talk about defeating him normally.

Mad Donkey has three Attack Patterns, and they are as follows:

His first combo is to raise his saw in the air and hit you with a delay.
The second one is to quick slash attack from right to left.
His third combo is Fury Attack. He will turn red and run towards you, swinging his sword horizontally left and right, and then he’ll hit you over the head for a total of 3 hits.

You can memorize his combos without attacking him for a while to easily defeat the Mad Donkey. Once you’ve learned enough of his combos, you can use your Perfect Guard skills to start dealing with Stagger Damage to him. You can then perform a Fatal Attack to really damage him.
