⚔️ Stance Switching

  • Stone beats swordsmen, Water beats shields, Wind beats spearmen, Moon beats brutes - switch on the attack, not after
  • Perfect parry fills Resolve faster than blocking; use it to break a group instead of dodging out
  • Heavenly Strike costs two Resolve and one-shots most captains

🎋 Exploration

  • Fox dens and haiku spots give charms that change combat rules; collect them before story missions
  • On Iki Island, the sarugami armour rewards parrying over blocking - it is the best set for duels
