3 things to understand first

Do not take Attack clashes with . Especially in Phase 2, protect key Sinners through 75% defensive reduction and other clash recipients.
Prepare at least 3 from last turn. Handle Blasting Shatterslash with or defense, or a slow recipient so ammunition is reduced first.
Phase 2 at 66% HP, further buffs at 50%. After unsealing, use the core's damage to aim for body defeat within 18 cumulative turns.

Reflectrial rules

A continuous battle with up to three loadouts, each with 7 starters and 5 reserves. Used Identities have reuse restrictions until progress is reset; borrowed Support Identities are unavailable. You can save progress and switch before the 12-turn loadout limit.
The first loadout starts enemies and fielded Sinners at 30 SP (−30 for negative- Identities) and grants +3 resources of every affinity. Do not assume this reset also applies to the second or third loadout.
At 66% HP or less, Phase 2 starts next turn. Transitions count toward cumulative turns; statuses do not reset. At 50% HP or less, major and normal skills strengthen further during Phase 2.
Phase transition and loadout switching are separate. Continue if the core and healing remain. The second and third loadouts enter an already enhanced pattern based on the body's remaining HP.
usage is separate from normal battles and checked per difficulty. Do not assume reuse between phases of one difficulty; save it for difficult transitions or major attacks.
HARD gives +80% max HP and an SP floor of 0. Adds buffs against and +100% Blasting Shatterslash damage at 3 or more s. In Phase 2, skills against gain further buffs and Unbreakable conversion.
Reward tiers are clear, 30 turns or less, 24 or less, and 18 or less. The 18-turn tier gives 200 Lunacy and 300 t-in Lens. The HARD clear tier also includes a ticket decoration.

GUIDEKeys to the fight

Aim for 18 cumulative turns or less. The budget is a guide; adjust to enemy skills, remaining HP, and your core's condition.

Turn budget and adjustments

Opening and early turns: Progress unsealing and prepare for the first major attack
The first loadout opens with four Double Slashes and two Triple Slashes, then changes to seven ammunition-using actions. At 85% HP or less, or the end of turn 2, Tanglecleaver follows; do not postpone healing.
Around 6 cumulative turns: Reach 66% HP and preserve the unsealed core for Phase 2
Example budget: 6 turns for Phase 1, 12 for Phase 2. If rushing Phase 1 kills key Prey Sinners, reconsider defense, healing, and major-clash recipients.
Around turns 7–12: Have Prey defend while damaging the body below 50% HP
Win major clashes with non-Prey Sinners and Counter survivable normal skills. If one loadout cannot finish within its limit, preserve unused Burn / Wrath Identities for Phase 2.
Within 18 cumulative turns: Kill the body; avoid overpursuing support units
Judge switching by remaining turns and HP. Do not assume Phase 1's core can be reused; focus attacks with remaining Identities suited to Phase 2's Shade.

Find a response based on how you lost

My key Sinner dies despite winning: Phase 2 gives skills against +5 Base Power and all-s. Assign Attack clashes elsewhere and equip defense on . Even with , choose normal skills they can survive.
Blasting Shatterslash kills Sinners one by one: All three s remain after winning. Reduce ammunition through other skills first, or use and 's defensive reduction. HARD adds buffs if at least 3 s remain On Use; check ammunition too.
I cannot heal and recover after the major attack: Tanglecleaver and Savage Tigerslayer's Perfected Flurry of Blades end the turn After Attack. Prepare healing and last turn and assign a strong non- recipient. Do not assume the normal version's Overheat opening applies.
I cannot finish within 18 turns: Budget 6 turns to reach 66% HP and 12 for the rest, then identify the slower section. Review totals, sword unsealing, forced attacks, and excess damage on support units.

First loadout: turn 1 through the first major attack

Use 30 SP and starting resources to prepare Bind early

The first loadout starts with 30 SP and +3 resources of every affinity. Progress sword unsealing through Middle Envy and s; Faust handles and healing as needed.
Preparing at least 3 next turn with Chains of Others stops -based SP healing and Slash buffs. In Phase 1, also gain +1 Power per 2 , up to 2.
At 85% HP or less, or the end of turn 2, advance to the Tanglecleaver pattern. Major attacks come even at high HP; check equipped skills.

Prey and seven normal actions

Protect Prey and reduce ammunition before Blasting Shatterslash

Identify the Sinner each turn. Assign Attack clashes elsewhere and use their equipped defense for 75% damage reduction. Even with a Middle , check the incoming skill and remaining HP.
If using an attack against Blasting Shatterslash, exploit its clashability regardless of and choose a slow recipient. First reduce ammunition through clashes with “” - Blast, “” - Blast, or “”.
All three Blasting Shatterslash s are Unbreakable. HARD strengthens it further at 3 or more s. if predictions support it; otherwise prepare 's defensive reduction and healing. Empty ammunition does not stop the attack itself.
Non- Sinners can also equip defense when receiving unopposed area hits, suppressing Tiantui Star's Blade's extra effects.

66% HP or less through 50% HP or less

Heal the core before Phase 2 and attack with the unsealed sword

At 66% HP or less, Phase 2 begins next turn. Gains 18 s and Tiantui Star, strengthening normal skills' last s. Heal before transition and retain the option of for the difficult opening.
Phase 2's Shade boosts attacks that inflict or special , or use Wrath. Continue if the unsealed Middle core remains; Phase 1 statuses such as can also carry over where useful.
Avoid Phase 2 Attack clashes with . combines all-Unbreakable conversion and Power buffs; ordinary clash predictions alone do not ensure safety.
At 50% HP or less, advances to Savage Tigerslayer's Perfected Flurry of Blades and . Clears and strengthens; do not assume lets you skip the major skill.

Phase 2: up to 18 cumulative turns

Win major clashes for mitigation and prioritize the body over support units

Win Tanglecleaver and Savage Tigerslayer's Perfected Flurry of Blades with strong skills or from non- Sinners. Winning gives 80% reduction and prevents from that skill's damage, but Unbreakable hits remain.
Major skills end the turn After Attack. Heal last turn; do not rely on pre-use or post-attack Overheat.
Support units withdraw after one turn. If affordable, kill to stop supply and gain on the body next turn. Do not pursue every add at the cost of body damage or needed clashes.
If one loadout cannot finish within 12 turns, judge remaining HP and cumulative turns and hand over to an unused team. Preserve strong , , and Wrath Identities for Phase 2.

PARTYRecommended teams and preparation

Six Middle members plus Evade and healing, finishing after sword unsealing

Build around Middle Counters and a combined total of at least 6 Envy Absolute Resonance. Protect Outis until Lævateinn is unsealed; keep Sinners with Prey out of Attack Skill clashes. Even when choosing defensive Counters, receive only manageable normal skills. Faust handles Evade and healing. The four reserve LCB Sinners can be replaced by trained Identities of the same Sinners. Middle member count does not change Lei Heng's patterns.

7 starters (example deployment order)

Outis：The House of Spiders: The Middle Nursefather
Main damage dealer. Progress unsealing with at least 6 combined Envy Absolute Resonance or S3. On Prey turns, avoid Attack Skill clashes; use defense and healing to preserve the next damage opening.
Heathcliff：The Middle Big Brother
Supports Middle defense and SP. When not Prey, use strong S3 or special skills for major clashes. Extra hits after Counter can Stagger him; avoid concentrating too many attacks.
Ishmael：The House of Spiders: The Middle Apprentice
Counter attacker paired with Outis. Equip defense and Counter survivable normal skills. Check Prey, Burn, and Tremor buildup every turn.
Sinclair：The Middle Little Brother
At least 6 combined Envy Absolute Resonance converts Counter into S3. Receive weak normal skills while stronger allies handle major attacks.
Meursault：The Middle Little Brother
Maintains Envy Resonance and uses Chains of Others for next-turn Bind and Attack Power Down. His own Counter does not become S3.
Don Quixote：The Middle Little Sister
Provides Envy Resonance and Counters. With Prey, do not force an Attack Skill clash against Blasting Shatterslash.
Faust：Lobotomy Corp. Remnant
Maintains Resonance with Envy Evade and restores HP and SP with Fluid Sac. Evade Power is 3–13, so it cannot be assumed to dodge enhanced Blasting Shatterslash. Assign based on predictions and support such as Bind or Paralyze.

5 reserves

Ryōshū：Lobotomy E.G.O:: Red Eyes & Penitence
At Uptie III and 3 Envy Resonance, heals 3 HP to the ally with the lowest HP percentage and 3 SP to the ally with the lowest SP percentage.
Yi Sang：LCB Sinner
Flexible Yi Sang slot. Can use a trained Identity in case reserves enter battle.
Hong Lu：LCB Sinner
Flexible Hong Lu slot. Allocate a different Identity here if one is needed for the next loadout.
Rodion：LCB Sinner
Flexible Rodion slot. Avoid sharing an Identity with an unused Phase 2 loadout.
Gregor：LCB Sinner
Flexible Gregor slot. Can switch to a support passive or combat strength after core casualties.

E.G.O and when to use them

Meursault《Chains of Others》
Costs 1 Sloth, 1 Gloom, and 2 Envy. On Hit, applies Bind and Attack Power Down next turn. At least 3 Bind stops the body's Speed-based buffs and also grants clash support in Phase 1. Account for Pride affinity breaking Resonance and Meursault's own debuffs.
Ishmael《Roseate Desire》
Costs 1 Wrath and 4 Lust. At Threadspin IV, the Awakening skill inflicts 10 Offense Level Down and 3 Paralyze On Hit, plus 3 Bind next turn. Separate current clash predictions from next-turn setup. Lust affinity also changes the Resonance total.
Faust《Fluid Sac》
Costs 2 Lust, 4 Gloom, and 3 Envy. Restore HP and SP on the turn before a major attack. Do not schedule healing after a forced turn end. Check Resonance changes from Gloom affinity too.
Outis《I'll Go fer Scissors. How 'Bout You?》
Costs 1 Lust and 3 Envy. An Envy resource option that converts Envy resources into a lowest-reserve affinity on a clash win. Do not force it into an unwinnable clash under Prey's Power penalty.

What to prepare first

The body's base level is 83. Train the core to the current cap; Middle Identities converting into S3 should have IV. Shade level bonuses do not also raise HP as though leveled.
The main setup is six Middle members plus Lobotomy Corp. Remnant Faust. Prepare Meursault's Chains of Others, Ishmael's Roseate Desire, and Faust's Fluid Sac to share and healing roles.
LCE :: Dimension Shredder Yi Sang is an alternative recipient. Replacing Faust loses Fluid Sac; secure another healing source.
Without the Middle, allocate / Gluttony to Phase 1 and / / Wrath to Phase 2. A Thumb and Dawn Office setup builds and to use . Do not reuse Identities across switched loadouts.

Non-Prey major-clash recipient

Save strong S3 or to beat Tanglecleaver and Savage Tigerslayer's Perfected Flurry of Blades. able regardless of , but avoid combining 's Power penalty with HARD buffs on the recipient.

Bind and offensive debuffs

At least 3 stops Chachihu's -based effects. Distinguish Chains of Others and Roseate Desire's application timing and next-turn effects.

Evade and healing

Limit Blasting Shatterslash damage and restore everyone's HP before major attacks. If is unlikely to succeed, also use 's defensive reduction and clash-based mitigation.

Divide attacks between Counter recipients and clashes or Evade. Do not sacrifice key Sinners merely to maintain Resonance.
