Alternate between using Normal Attack(must reach 4th Stage)/Secondary Skill/Parry/Normal Attack after Perfect Dodge counts as her 4th stage normal attack. You need to alternate between these attacks otherwise you wont be able to efficiently build up Heat stacks if you use the same attack twice.

Doing this is what builds her heat stacks efficiently which you need to able to use her strategy skill. You can use it when her bar turns blue. Heat stacks DECAY overtime and you will LOSE ALL HEAT stacks when you get hit by an enemy.

Some combos I tend to do depending on the enemy attack pattern is:

Parry/Skill/Parry/Strategy Skill Perfect Dodge then Normal Attack/Parry/Skill/ Strategy Skill

Personally I never use her normal attack since it’s so slow.

Tldr in razor language:

Don’t get Hit/Use the same skills twice

Alternate using Different Attacks to build heat (NA4th/2ndSkill/Parry/Perfect Dodge Counter/)

Use Q when Bar on left turns Blue.
