Why this works
Upgrade the crossbow and then the long bow as primary damage tools; launch-week hands-on testing finds focused projectile upgrades reduce dependence on perfect close-range parries.
Practice without guessing
Use visible game feedback—FP, stagger, the command menu, and the cleared-save prompt—rather than an invented frame count or unsupported carry-over list. Reset at camp when a repeatable drill is useful.
Sources and verification
The route is limited to first-party launch guidance and the listed completed-game hands-on source where shipped behavior requires confirmation.
