Arena Location
Head to the Warrior’s Spirit Swordfighting Arena through the event Waypoint in Ritou, and enter the room to Prepare for Duel. There are six challenges that unlock throughout the event period, and they must be completed in order.
Strategy
Under the opponent’s name, click View Rules to get an overview of their combat style and your Honed Technique. The Honed Technique replaces your Elemental Burst and can help make the duel a lot easier. Both of these change in every duel, so make sure to double-check the Rules before starting.
Difficulty
Each battle is divided into three difficulties: Normal, Hard, Pro. you may only unlock Pro after completing Hard mode. Completing a higher difficulty will unlock all rewards from lower difficulty levels as well. Don’t be afraid of the Pro mode, as it can sometimes feel easier than Hard due to the faster-paced nature of the duel.
How to Parry
During the duel, you can only use the Traveler, whose Elemental Skill and Burst will be replaced with event-specific techniques.
Using Normal Attacks will barely do any damage, so you mustparry all the opponent’s strikesto make an impactful hit. Parry works similarly to Beidou’s Elemental Skill, which requires impeccable timing to execute.
First, you must learn each opponent’s moves, which are usually limited to a few attack patterns. Once you understand how they move, wait for the opponent to enter theirbattle stance. As soon as they strike (usually marked by a blue glow), immediatelyhold the Elemental Skillbutton toblock, thenrelease to counterattack, completing a parry.
