How to Beat Shiyu Defense 13

Shiyu Defense 13 First Half

Target the Poachers in the 3rd Wave

The Poachers won't make their appearance until the 3rd wave. As usual, you should target them first once they spawn to lure the Raiders to their location for easy eradication.

Rely on Perfect Assists and Dodge Counters

Bulky Intimidators and Bulky Enforcers can launch back-to-back attacks, varying between gold and red attack cues.

Turn their offense against them by performing Perfect Assists or Dodge Counters.

Shiyu Defense 13 Second Half

Prioritize the Light Jaegers

Waves 1 and 3 will pit you against Jaeger mobs, with Light Jaegers being their main ranged units. Target them first to lure the Guard Jaegers, then end them quickly.

Stay Close to the Enemies

Staying close to the Lightfoot Rover and Guardian will make most of their ranged attacks fly overhead of your agents.

Give chase, and use Perfect Assists and Dodge Counters to avoid attacks they make to shake you off.
