Autumn Winds, Scarlet Leaves Tips & Strategies

The Crux Clash

In The Crux Clash tournament, you'll be using the Traveler by default and are only allowed to do basic attacks. A simple strategy of staggering opponents with constant combos and dodging when they attack will easily get you through each round.

Note: You don't have to forcibly level your Traveler as they'll be boosted in the battles.

Follow the Wind

Outside of the tournament, there are two mob battles involving Slimes and Treasure Hoarders, which can easily be dealt with using AoE attacks. As for the final boss, Fei the Flyer, you just have to keep a close distance and overwhelm him with flurries of attacks or burst him down with your best DPS character.
