Tips

Deliberately lose the first attempt while focusing entirely on triggering Observation Learning prompts, as the unarmed techniques gained this way make the rematch significantly easier.
Muskan's adaptive counter system has a tell: when he shifts his weight to his back foot and raises one hand palm-forward, he is reading Kliff's next input and will counter it. Mix up attack timings with deliberate pauses to break his prediction loop.
Positioning Kliff with his back near the arena wall limits Muskan's throw distance and prevents the full damage of his most devastating slam combo.
After defeating Muskan, returning to The Bonepit unlocks a repeatable sparring mode and the arena's betting system, offering a lucrative source of gold and rare consumables.
