Phantom Blade Zero: how to handle Hua and her explosive flowers

The November 3 patch reduced grab frequency on only two difficulty settings.

Against Hua, watch the flowers on the ground. PC Gamer warns that they explode and that white flowers track and can stun, leaving an opening for a grab. Avoid staying among them to finish a combo.

The guide recommends a charged axe 影之武装 attack after breaking defense to extend the damage window, and dodging the downward attack surrounded by black smoke. Upgrading a weapon to unlock its ability can help; the author’s exact equipment is not mandatory.

Official patch 1.0302256 reduced Hua’s grab frequency only on Wayfarer and Pathbreaker; other difficulties were unchanged in this respect. We have not tested this guide ourselves.

The source guide does not state its tested platform or version; we have not tested it after the update.
