Now, I was in the forest earlier with my dex character and I had managed to kill the host's phantom and I had driven the host back towards the entrance door.
The host backed right up against the wall to the left of the steps and I quickly flipped up the stairs onto the little ledge about half way down, then did a plunge attack onto the host (bearing in mind that this drop is about the bare minimum height required to do a plunge).
The host was using a grant and was mid-swing as I hit him. I took some damage from his swing but my plunge hit him for around 1050 damage resulting in his death.
I was using an unbuffed Uchi (no hornet ring either) which is known for having fairly modest criticals, so could it be that counter damage was added on in addition to the plunge in this situation?
