How to Beat Shiyu Defense 15

Shiyu Defense 15 First Half

Take Out the Mandrake

In Wave 1, prioritize taking out the Mandrake first to remove the ATK buff.

Afterwards, focus on taking out the Sordidus enemies so that the Fossor enemies will approach you, making it easier to attack all enemies.

Attack the Arlaune with Its Petals Out

Focus on attacking the Arlaune so that the Goblin will approach you. When the Arlaune's petals are spread wide, attack it to inflict a ton of Daze.

Shiyu Defense 15 Second Half

Prioritize the Rustler Enemies

For Wave 1, approach the Rustler enemies so the Looters will go near you. This will allow you to attack them all in a small space.

Rely on Dodge Counters

Against the doppelgangers, they will unleash a lot of attacks and can deal a lot of damage. Use Dodge Counters to safely chip away their health.
