Heavenly Sword Walkthrough Part 2: Cannon Blasts from the Rooftops

Finishing up your bow and arrow attack with Kai in Heavenly Sword, it'll be time for Nariko to step up to the plate. All the soldiers that entered into the fort untouched will be your new priority, not to mention the swarms you didn't see. You should use hard combos and evasive attacks here and if you are getting a lot of damage dealt from all sides, you should pick up the bodies of the fallen soldiers and throw them into the crowd to scatter them up a bit. Once you've cleared the area, this part is finished.

A new objective is upon you and this one is set out for you to go and meet up with Shen at the top of the fort in Heavenly Sword. Get ready to use Nariko's Sixaxis skill because you're going to desperately need it. You'll quickly see three catapults marked by their shimmering that you're going to have to destroy. You're going to have to shoot cannons at these to destroy them and you've got three minutes to do it, so don't worry about how many cannonballs you have, because they're unlimited.

Take aim, fire, and conveniently use the Aftertouch to move the cannonball after it has left the barrel. After you've hit each weak spot on the three different catapults and destroyed them in Heavenly Sword, you'll see another weak spot form for you to take out. Finish off the last two and you're finished with the first wave of attack.

Just when you thought the hard part was over, you'll see a second wave of enemies come running in, 700 of them to be precise. You have only three minutes once again to take out this mass amount of people, but don't panic because you still have the cannon at your side. For this part, skip the whole Aftertouch thing in Heavenly Sword or you'll lose time and that's the one thing you need right now. Just aim low of them and start blasting away and it'll be over before you know and then you can say "should have brought your own cannon."
