Certain opponents in this challenge possess the Honed Spirit effect, which grants them 10% Physical and All Elemental RES.
When opponents with Honed Spirit take hits from attacks that are considered Normal Attack DMG, they will lose 3% Physical and All Elemental RES. A maximum of 30% of each may be lost this way.
The RES lost this way will be reset every 20s.
Honed Spirit affects all enemies on Side 1.
If you can use Normal Attacks, then this divergence is effectively a debuff on enemies, as it will result in a net -20% RES at max stacks on the enemy. Spear users in particular are good at getting a lot of stacks quickly.
Having strong single target damage on Side 1 is important when trying to go for stars for Chambers 1 & 2, and Side 2 for Chamber 3. As usual, if you're having trouble then build a different team for each chamber.
Bosses such as Primo Geovishap and Maguu Kenki have high damage resistance during their initial animation, however can still be hit with attacks to generate energy and buffs. You can use this time to set up certain effects before the fight begins.
