Frozen Retreat

Yuan Shao slams his shield into the ground, and then propels himself backwards with a sudden burst of ice.

Frozen Dispersal

Yuan Shao releases a stream of frozen vapor from his left arm, creating a field of mist that deals damage to the player.

Hail Storm

Yuan Shao conjures a hail storm that affects the surrounding area. One of these hail blocks will always target the player.

Frozen Jet

Yuan Shao releases a stream of ice that he uses to propel himself towards the player. Unlike Cold Slide, this attack deals damage to the player.

Shield Guard

Yuan Shao raises his shield to block attacks coming from the front. Yuan Shao will still take damage from the sides and back during this animation.

Tentacle Lash

A two-hit attack where Yuan Shao swings his right tentacle at the player.

Tentacle Swipe

A single swipe from Yuan Shao's tentacle that hits the area directly infront of him.

Tentacle Slam

A slam attack with a long wind up that uses Yuan Shao's right arm.

Shield Throw

Yuan Shao spins his shield before throwing it at the player.

How to Beat Yuan Shao (General Tips)

Punish Ice Shot

Yuan Shao's Ice Shot attack usually comes in bursts of three. By staying close and avoiding the first shot, Yuan Shao remains open to attacks for the remaining two shots.

Counter Shield Grab

Instead of moving away from Yuan Shao's left arm during his Shield Grab critical blow, move towards it before attempting your counter.

Dodge Frozen Jet

Frozen Jet has a very narrow hitbox, so simply evade towards the left or right to dodge this attack.
