It's showdown time.

EXTRA INFORMATION:
1) A "shortshot" and "longshot" can be differentiated between their priming sounds. A longshot has a loud shotgun pump, while a shortshot has a quieter noise. Shortshots also have a cooldown, so they can't happen twice in a row. Doubleshots CAN happen, because a shortshot and a longshot are two separate moves. But never 2 longshots or shortshots in a row.
2) Stims are really helpful.
- I4S gives defense (arbiter shots aren't affected by defense, only hammer attacks) and regeneration, which usually allows you to make at least 1 mistake.
- S44 allows you to land 3 light attacks per stun instead of 2. This nearly DOUBLES your damage output.
- Neloprephine removes morale (if you're in publics for some reason), as well as making stamina regeneration almost instant. This can help "shove spam" if needed, but not recommended to do so.
- Hemostatic increases defense slightly and makes you ignore debuffs. This is really useful, because a fracture removes your ability to shove - which is necessary to cancel her arbiter shots.
- 3-(cbSTM) makes your shoves super fast and increases melee damage significantly. Combined with an S44, you'll have insane damage per parry. It also cures fracture upon use, if you have it.
3) Using heavy attacks isn't recommended, because her recovery time is too fast for them. Only use them with weapons that have high strike damage (hold T to see it) and only with an S44. Don't use Executioner sword or Scythe, though, they have fixed swing speeds that can not be changed.
Firerier axe is good because it has a fast light swing speed and the HIGHEST light attack damage in the game. It's also super cheap - only 50 salvage. Lameo blade and normal Fire axe can be used instead, should you find them.
Billhook or Maria can be used with an S44 for their high M2 damage, billhook almost removing the need to shove entirely, which helps if you have fracture or slow shoves, and maria just having a very high M2 speed and damage.
4) I recommend Executioner, Berserker or Immolator when fighting her. Often enough, all you really need to kill her is a Firerier axe. No stims required, but they do help.
5) Recommended traits (if you're not doing Showdowner):
- Aggressive behavior for faster shoves. This removes the need to run away when she movestacks, since you'll be able to parry right afterwards. Also increases fists damage, if you're using them.
- Violent tendencies for faster attacks. This helps hit in-between attacks, as well as give you extra time to parry after a light combo.
- Honorable for fists parrying, if you're using them. This is the only trait you're allowed to use for Showdowner2 (fists kill).
