how many rude busters to beat the knight

You need about 2 strong Rude Busters to push the Knight into its scripted final phase, because the fight reportedly ends its normal damage check at around 1,460 damage and a well-timed Rude Buster can deal roughly 1,400 per hit.

Quick Scoop

A lot of players say the practical answer is 2 big hits , not a huge number of them, since the real goal is to reach the damage threshold rather than fully empty the HP bar. Some forum posts mention higher counts for safer, lower-damage, or less optimized runs, but those are usually for weaker setups or defensive playstyles.

What that means

  • If your Rude Busters are hitting hard and cleanly, 2 is usually enough.
  • If your damage is lower, or you miss perfect timing, you may need more.
  • The Knight fight is more about surviving the scripted phase after the threshold than brute-forcing the whole HP bar.

Forum vibe

“Reach 1460 damage then the knight will begin preparing the ultimate attack.”

“The Knight needs to take 1,460 damage before it initiates a final three scripted turns.”

Bottom line

For most decent setups: about 2 Rude Busters. For a weaker or safer run, people report anywhere from roughly 10 to 14 total uses depending on gear, TP, and strategy.

TL;DR: Usually 2 big Rude Busters, but the exact number depends on your damage output and setup.
