Thorn Rose quick guide: parry, stack Sword Dance, and burst on Break
Thorn Rose gains a short critical-rate buff from a precisely timed parry and stacks Sword Dance with skills. Enter after the target is broken, use the mobility skill for its critical buff, then chain basic attacks and spend Sword Dance for burst. Pair Grass skills with Break and support roles.
Basic attacks and strings
The basic string includes thrusts, repeated hits, and an upward strike into a thrust. Learn the full sequence before weaving skills so you do not cut off basic-attack damage too early.
Thorn Guard: parry at the moment of impact
Thorn Guard reduces incoming damage by 20%. If an attack lands at the precise activation moment, Thorn Rose counters and gains 30% critical rate for 10 seconds. Do not cast it early; time it to the enemy’s incoming hit.
Sword Dance: skills build stacks, attacks spend them
Skills grant Sword Dance stacks. The video says stacks empower later basic attacks and are consumed when those attacks are used. Sequence skills and empowered basics so the enhanced hits land during Break or another damage window.
Enter after Break and build the team
The creator enters with Thorn Rose after Break, uses the mobility skill for critical rate, then chains multi-hit skills and basics. Pair with a creature that supplies Grass skills, plus a Break unit and support. The support name is unclear in the transcript, so choose by role.
