Level gates and upgrade effects
Temper storm pulls enemies and builds both gauges per hit; 5: hold Triangle converts Sha-Chi to Thunder; 10: faster gauges; 15: parry builds Wind; 25: Blessing lasts 50s.
Practice order
Start with a short Square chain to judge reach and recovery, then add Sha-Chi attacks and finally the special state or timed input. Swapping restores Sha-Chi but has a cooldown; executions may add a separate 15-second swap lock. Compare matching upgrade levels and change your damage plan when the target is immune.
