Phantom Blade Zero · Puppet Zitherist · Monsters

A graceful musician puppet cradling a zither. Beneath its clear, ringing notes lies deadly intent. Music meant for killing can no longer remain in harmony, so blocking its blue sound waves causes the lingering notes to rebound against it. As plague swept through Pangzhen, most of their fellow musicians fled, leaving them with no one to turn to. A man had promised to come for them so they could escape together. Clutching the zither they depended on, they waited and waited... But the one they longed for never came. Instead, they were met with the forbidden art of Soul Displacement.

Stats and details

Combat strategy

One ranged attack cannot be blocked. Move across its line of fire or dodge, then close from the side. Perfect-block the blue-flash strike just before impact. Once the combo starts, watch for the follow-up hits. Counter when the last strike misses. Probe with a short attack in melee. The enemy can counter, so stop the string if the opener misses.
