Walkthrough
- 1Yuki's Attacks and Counters:
- Forward Ice Dash: Dash forward into the ice without taking damage to get a few free hits. Yuki recovers quickly, so don't be greedy.
- 2Ice Breath: Yuki leans forward on her staff and breathes an ice stream. This attack deals ongoing damage and applies the "Water" status effect. Dodge to the side and counterattack.
- 3Ice Shots (3 types):
- Slow Ice Shot: Features 3-4 icicles floating above Yuki's head, firing one after another. These are homing shots. Block or dodge away.
- 4Ice Barrage: Three chunks of ice shoot straight at you repeatedly (five shots in a row). Guard the first few shots and then dodge.
- 5Ice Spread: Five icicles appear, spread out, and shoot in a spread pattern. This punishes side-dodging. Guard in place or guard and walk slowly to the side to avoid.
- 6Area Ice:
- Ground Ice: Yuki shoots ice on the ground in front of her, creating damaging patches. Move out of the affected area.
- 7Circle Ice: Yuki shoots a circle of ice around her, trapping you. Guard and wait for it to disappear, then move away.
- 8Charge Attack: Yuki's halberd disappears, and she charges forward. Back up to make her appear right in front of you, allowing for a counterattack. If caught, she grapples you, dealing moderate initial damage and minor damage when throwing you down.
