Mash Attack Button During Normal Attack Finishers

Thanks to the Kagura's Dance Resonium, the 5th hit and 4th hit of Jougen stance and Kagen stance, respectively, are now modified—simply press the button repeatedly to have Yanagi slash enemies infinitely!

The great thing about this is that it hits in an AoE, allowing you to effectively take down waves of enemies. Additionally, it's a great way to stack up on Electric Anomaly Buildup while keeping a safe distance!

Hold Down Button During EX Special Attack

The Soaring Moonlight Resonium will have the same effect on Yanagi's EX Special Attack as the Kagura's Dance does on her Basic Attacks—hold down the EX Special Attack button to extend her Thunderbolt duration!

This will also render Yanagi invulnerable for as long as the Thunderbolt attacks persist!

How to Beat Disaster Purge

Take Advantage of the Snow Debris Resonium

The Snow Debris Resonium enables Miyabi's Ultimate to fully restore 6 Fallen Frost stacks and restores Decibels based on the charge level of Shimotsuki unleashed.

Keeping this in mind, you should balance her Ultimate and Charge LVL 3 Shimotsuki, and mix them up. Start with a LVL3 charged attack, followed by an Ultimate, then unleash another LVL3 charged attack!

Take Advantage of the Endless Blizzard Resonium

The Endless Blizzard Resonium enables Miyabi to use her EX Special Attack without consuming Energy after inflicting Frostburn on an enemy. Do take note that this applies on only one instance of EX Special Attack.

That means that after inflicting Frostburn on an enemy and you only have Energy for one EX Special Attack, you can do two since the first one will be free! Use this to your advantage when taking on large groups of enemies!

How to Beat Starlight Flash

Keep Your Distance

Billy excels in long-ranged combat, so be sure to keep your distance when fighting enemies, especially Elites and Bosses.

You can do this by relying on Dodge Counters or simply dashing away when the enemy gets too close.

Perfect Dodge and Dodge Counters

Use the Rotating Drivetrain Resonium for Crowd Control

The Rotating Drivetrain Resonium allows Billy to repeatedly use his Dash Attack after an EX Special Attack or a Chain Attack. This is extremely useful when you're dealing with large crowds of enemies.

However, this Dash Attack can only be repeated based on the number of Charges you gain. Each use of Billy's EX Special Attack or Chain Attack will give him one stack of Charge.
