Tips
- Deflect the elite archers' flaming arrows during the rift wave to eliminate them quickly without depleting armaments.
- In the battle with Burai, keep your distance until he pauses to attack with his electrified eyes, then close in to strike with a fully charged Earth-Shakers.
- When Burai raises his naginata high during a charge, time an Issen counter to punish the slower overhead swing.
