Tips
  • Shadows are best dealt with using magic when they appear in waves. They can hide in the ground but remain targetable.
  • For Soldiers, use the Reaction Command Cyclone before they spin to defeat them instantly.
  • For Samurai, use the Reaction Command Duel Stance. When the command list goes blank and "The End" appears, select it to defeat the Samurai in one hit.
