Read the dangerous sequence
Perfect-parry the white projectiles to reflect damage. If suction orbs appear, move towards the arena edge before the explosion. A red charge needs an evade after the windup. Summoned monks can reduce pressure while you close in. Victory gives Heart-Rousing Pipa, which is separate from the repairable Illusory Pipa.

More attack cues and counters
| Attack identifier | Response |
|---|---|
| Straight chord strike | Delay the side dodge because she tracks slowly, or move behind during wind-up. |
| Three sonic blades | Evade the first; if clipped, defend the remaining blades. |
| Trapping vortex | Inside the trap, use timed dodges for subsequent attacks. |
| Floating air orbs | Keep moving and pass sideways rather than retreating in their line. |
| Orb barrage | Reflect the orbs back to avoid heavy damage and punish her. |
| Mixed vortices/orbs | Move to the arena edge, reduce ground-hazard pressure and focus on reflections. |

Separate Heartrend from Illusory Pipa
Heartrend Pipa drops from Yuzan and does not clear illusion barriers. Illusory Pipa is the repaired/tempered form from Myst; owning the base instrument does not satisfy the exploration gate.
