1-1. Chapter I: Arban Arms

Save the King! Follow Healix's tutorial instructions: open your action list, use a power, and jump over obstacles. Learn blocking and dodging (dodging is generally faster). To loot a chest, stand still in front of it and press the jump button.

Y: Charging Slash

X Y: Rising Slice

X X Y: Swiping Slice (can stun)

X X X Y: Blizzard Slash (chills foes)

In Mid-Air: X X: Mid-Air Combo

In Mid-Air: Y (Hold): Air Raid

RB (Hold) and X: Cold Fission

Combat Tips: Ending normal combos with a strong attack can stun targets (two normals + strong) or launch enemies (normal + strong). Mid-air normal attacks deal extra damage. Holding the mid-air strong attack acts like a sawblade. Activate special powers by holding RB and selecting from the menu.

Secure the Throne Room (_Defeat all the monsters!_): Attack all monsters. Pick up small tan pouches for crafting. Use this section to practice strong attack finishers and special moves like Cold Fission/Inferno Slash.

Big Trouble for Little Healix (_Don't let Healix get hurt!_): This is a protection mission. Race past monsters to Healix rather than fighting everything. Monitor Healix's HP bar beneath the map.

A Powerful Enemy Appears! (_Defeat the dragon!_): The green dragon's first attack is flame breath. Stay back initially and attack minions instead. Loot nearby vases for supplies. Healix will heal critically wounded characters. Once minions are defeated, focus on the dragon's tail or head for bonus damage.

High Tension Mode: After defeating the dragon, you gain High Tension mode. You are invincible, faster, and can double-jump. You can manually activate a coup de grâce to end the mode and perform a powerful area attack. Alternatively, let High Tension expire, and a coup de grâce will activate automatically.
