Combat Techniques & Strategies

Combo & Rhythm

Master the art of chaining attacks effectively

  • Light-Light-Heavy "safe combo finisher" is perfect for practice
  • When you see enemy charge-up animations, stop attacking early and prepare to dodge/block
  • Use short recovery weapons for "hit and run": Attack 1-2 times then disengage to avoid counterattacks
  • Learn your weapon's combo timing - each weapon has different attack speeds

Defense Trinity

Three essential defensive techniques

Dodge (Q Key)

High forgiveness, cost is losing position. Learn "dodge inward" to circle behind enemies, increasing your attack window.

Best for: General use, learning enemy patterns

Block

Stable damage reduction, best for when you're familiar with enemy attack patterns.

Best for: Predictable attacks, long fights

Parry

High risk, high reward. Practice on rhythm-based enemies. A few dedicated farming sessions will significantly improve your skill.

Best for: Mastering combat, high-skill play

Enemy Type Counterplay

How to handle different enemy types

Fast Enemies

Don't be greedy - hit 2 times then retreat. Wait for their recovery frames before using heavy attacks.

Heavy/Tank Enemies

Circle behind them or use armor-breaking tools. Use status effects (burn/vulnerability) to chip away health safely.

Ranged Enemies

Prioritize closing the distance. Use terrain cover to advance, interrupt their casting.

Advanced Techniques

Pro tips for better combat

  • "Chokepoint Clearing": Pull enemies to narrow passages or doorways to limit their flanking angles
  • "Wave Separation": Clear small enemies first, then engage elites. Avoid overlapping enemy abilities that can one-shot you
  • Learn enemy attack tells - each enemy has visual/audio cues before attacking
  • Use terrain to your advantage - walls can block ranged attacks, corners can funnel enemies

Advanced Control Techniques

1

Movement Mastery

Master dash cancelling and animation cancelling to maximize movement speed and combat effectiveness. Dash cancelling allows you to cancel attack animations with dashes for faster movement.
2

Ability Combos

Learn to chain abilities together. Many abilities can be comboed for increased damage. Practice Z → X → C combos for maximum effectiveness.
3

Camera Control

Adjust your camera sensitivity in settings. Higher sensitivity allows faster camera movement but may reduce accuracy. Find the balance that works for you.
4

Keybind Customization

Customize your keybinds to suit your playstyle. Some players prefer different layouts for better accessibility or comfort.

Control Settings

Recommended Settings

Camera Sensitivity

Adjust camera sensitivity to your preference. Higher sensitivity allows faster camera movement but may reduce accuracy. Start with medium sensitivity and adjust based on your comfort.

Keybind Customization

You can customize most keybinds in the settings menu. Consider rebinding keys that are uncomfortable or hard to reach to more accessible keys.

Graphics Settings

Lower graphics settings can improve responsiveness and reduce input lag. If you experience input delay, try lowering graphics settings.
