Parrying attacks, especially the Fatal Strikes, will decrease your enemy's Spirit Gauge significantly. As such, it is ideal for you to parry as much as possible, then damage them heavily with your Fatal Strike once it is available.
This is a boss fight that focuses on the player's positioning. Staying too close makes the player vulnerable to some of Sun Jian's attacks. Staying far will also make him use his other attacks on you. As such, it's a matter of staying close enough to deal damage and then moving away to prevent him from using his strong attacks. This fight will be a dance, one that the player should patiently participate in.
It's important to note, however, that Sun Jian will get enraged once his HP goes below 50%. While in this mode, he will start to use his Charge and Claw Lunge more frequently, as well as the Roar. He will also attack faster and use combos a lot more. As such, care must be taken once you are past the halfway mark. Most, if not all, of his attacks, are easy to dodge and parry. It's just a matter of getting used to his attack patterns to effectively dodge and parry them.
