Tips for Combat in Stellar Blade (Project EVE)
First, understand the enemy’s behavior patterns
The most important combat tips is to observe and understand the enemy’s behavior patterns. If you go into battle without knowing what kind of attacks the enemy will use, the risk of receiving damage will greatly increase, so first of all, you should observe the enemy’s behavior patterns and think about how to deal with them.
Take actions appropriate to the enemy’s shining color
If you take the appropriate action to the color that flashes just before the enemy attacks, an advantageous effect will occur in battle. Please refer to the table below and remember how to deal with it.
| Color | Action | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Yellow | Evade: Press 〇 just before being attacked | If you press it at the right time, it will cause a perfect dodge and you will not take damage. |
| Blue | Blink: Left Analog Stick ↑ + 〇 just before being attacked | Teleport behind the enemy to stun them and gain a burst of energy. |
| Purple | Repulse: Left Analog Stick ↓ + 〇 just before being attacked | Knocks back enemies and temporarily increases long-range attack power. *The weaknesses of some enemies will be exposed. |
Enemies lose their balance with Perfect Parry
A successful Perfect Parry can reduce the enemy’s balance. If you reduce the balance to 0, you can activate Retribution with △ and deal great damage. For attacks that can be blocked, try to aim for a perfect parry to try to break enemies balance.

Enemies balance can also be reduced with skills and items
The enemy’s balance can also be reduced with the Quadruplet that has “Enhanced Finishing Attack” and the consumable item sonic grenade. If perfect parry is hard to do, consider these methods as well.

Your damage will increase when enemy’s shield gauge decreases to a certain level, so be sure to use techniques that have the effect of reducing the shield gauge.
