Effect of the Ghost Stance
Defeat up to 3 enemies with a single strike
The Ghost Stance can be activated by pressing L3 and R3 simultaneously, and by attacking during the activation, you can defeat enemies with a single strike. The style will be deactivated after defeating 3 enemies or after a certain amount of time, returning to the normal state.
Activation Conditions for the Ghost Stance
Defeat 7 enemies without taking damage
As you defeat enemies, the gauge at the bottom right of the screen will fill up. Once you defeat 7 enemies, you will be able to activate the Ghost Stance. Be careful, as taking damage from enemies will reset the gauge. It is recommended to activate the Ghost Stance as soon as the gauge is full. Equipping the Ghost Armor will reduce the required number of enemies to fill the gauge.

Behead the Mongol Leader
When you behead the Mongol leader, the gauge will fill up to its maximum and the Ghost Stance can be activated. Beheading can be done when the enemy is not aware. Assassinate the Mongol leader from behind. Since you can activate the Ghost Stance while defeating the leader, it is recommended to actively target the leader when you find them.
