Parry Frequently

As you will need to generate kills through Fire Damage, this challenge has a unique quirk in it in that on parries, you'll sometimes create a circular wave that sets everything around you on fire. If your enemies have received damage beforehand, this will be enough to kill them, while the parries themselves also generate points for you.

Use Harpoon Impalement

In lieu of parrying, you can use the Harpoon Impalement ability you have to steer enemies towards the fires burning in the environment. This works best if you have damaged them beforehand to guarantee kills.

Weaken Enemies

The enemies you can find in this challenge are tough, and may sometimes not fall easily to either Fire Damage or Fall Damage. You must weaken them prior to using the Kick of Tyr or Harpoon Impalement Abilities to knock them off of platforms or into fires.

Dodge When Swarmed

In the first area you trudge through, the enemies will swarm you if you don't take care of the first two enemies you encounter. As a general rule, when you cannot parry any of their strikes any longer, simply dodge at the last minute to trigger a time slow-down. This gives you enough time to maneuver around enemies for more advatangeous positioning.
