Beyond basic attacks and Relic Abilities, several advanced combat techniques can turn the tide of battle. Parrying is possible with the Light Barrier: activate it just as an enemy projectile is about to hit to reflect it back for increased damage and a stun. Aerial Combos involve launching enemies with a Ground Pound, then following up with basic attacks and a Gust Dash for sustained airtime and damage. Learn enemy attack patterns to anticipate openings for these advanced moves. Some enemies have specific elemental weaknesses; for example, water-based enemies take extra damage from Light Relic attacks. Experiment with combining Relic Abilities – a Ground Pound followed by a Hydro-Blast can be devastating. Always prioritize dodging and maintaining momentum to avoid damage and create opportunities.
