How to Beat Shiyu Defense 13

Shiyu Defense 13 First Half

Group Enemies Together

This applies to both halves. As per usual when dealing with mobs of normal enemies, group them into one location for easier eradication by either using skills that drag them closer together or targeting ranged units first.

Do so for all waves involving normal enemies to get rid of them quickly and prevent the battle from dragging on longer than it should.

Stay Close to the Guardian

The Guardian has many projectile attacks that will miss and go over your Agent's head as long as you stick close to it. Stay close to the Guardian and parry any gold flashes with Perfect Assists!

Shiyu Defense 13 Second Half

Follow the Wicked Wraith's Movements

As a large enemy, the Wicked Wraith telegraphs most of its attacks. Keep an eye on it and trigger Perfect Assists on gold flashes to avoid unnecessary damage.
