Enemy weaknesses are rated from 1 to 3, with 3 being extremely effective. An X mark means the enemy is immune against the status effect.
The South General executes attacks imbued with Lightning, so wearing armor that mitigates the element will help you survive longer in the fight.
| Openings | |
|---|---|
| 1 | He remains stationary when he summons lightning strikes. |
| 2 | He'll remain stationary for a short time before doing another attack. |
These two moves provide windows to open the South General up for Obliterate Strikes.
Maintain a fair amount of distance, not too close, but not too far, to trigger specific attacks like the Thunderwave/Thunderstrike move, followed by Lightning Rush. This tactic helps limit his moveset to just a few patterns, making the fight easier, as you’ll only need to learn and react to a small number of attacks.
This also makes it easier to get behind Lu Wenxiu, allowing you to land a heavy attack and open him up for Obliterate Strikes.

|---|---|
| Thunderwave |
Liu Wenxiu charges his blade, and sends 3 rows of lightning to blasts, with safe gaps in the middle to dodge to. |
| Thunderstrike |
Liu Wenxiu charges his blade for a quick and deadly lightning attack that strikes in a row towards your location, before charging up for a rush attack. Dodge right or left at all strikes as they cannot be blocked. |
| Gunshots |
Lu Wenxia turns into a storm cloud before materializing and shooting his gun 1-3 time/s. Block if that ability is available, or dodge in any direction to avoid it. |
| Graceful Strikes |
Liu Wenxiu strikes with his blade three times. Dodge in any direction for the first two strikes before pushing closer to land some hits on him. |
| Lightning Rush |
After calling down lightning on you, Lu Wenxia charges his blade and rushes you, which can knock you down. It's best to dodge backward while you're maintaining a bit of distance from him, so that you'll be able to reach his back and execute a heavy attack. |
| Torrential Storm |
Lu Wenxia zips around the area like lightning, and cuts through the distance between you and him. He ends this combo with a Lightning Rush. At close quarters, he'll swing with his sword but it can be easily dodged or blocked if available, and this will interrupt the whole combo. |
| Vorpal Blade |
Using his sword, Lu Wenxia charges up lightning in his swings, before finishing it up with a thrust. Dodge in any direction to avoid his attack. |
| Moves | Details |
|---|---|
| Storm's Fury |
Turning to a stormy cloud, Lu Wenxia materializes high up in the air and calls upon lightning in a huge area to strike you down. He will come down again and strike with his sword while lightning blasts in the area. |
You'll find the South General, Liu Wenxiu, on the right side of Zhenwu Temple.
