Strategy:

The key here is to prioritize your targets. Guardian-Wind is the bigger threat, boasting higher HP and ATK, so he should be your primary focus initially. He’s also floating, which means certain attacks like Sword Rain won't be very effective. Stick to a solid 3-hit combo and finish it off with either Tiger Blade or Tempest. Honestly, Tempest tends to be the better finisher here.

You can use the battle strategy menu to set things up. I recommend having one character focus on aiding your raid against Guardian-Wind while the other two keep the Clumsy Assassin busy. This way, you're dividing their attention and minimizing the damage your party takes.

Once Guardian-Wind is down, the Clumsy Assassin should be much more manageable. Just focus all your efforts on him, and he shouldn't give you too much trouble.
