Use lower-cost Glyphs for common enemies during exploration, and save more costly attacks for bosses or elite foes when your Heart is limited. If a fight keeps draining your resources, change your Glyph choices or create distance instead of continuing to attack.
Adjust Glyph use to the fight
The supplied draft describes Glyphs as Shanoa’s primary offense and says attacks consume Heart. It recommends fast, lower-cost projectiles for ordinary enemies and reserving higher-cost attacks for demanding encounters. The material does not identify specific Glyphs or establish which options are most effective against particular enemies.
When Heart runs low, prioritize defensive movement over forcing more attacks. Against a boss, watch for an opening, use a short attack sequence, then retreat rather than repeatedly striking through its attacks.
Change your approach when a fight stalls
If you repeatedly lose to a boss, review your range and Glyph choices before trying to attack more aggressively. The draft suggests switching between melee and projectile options when your current loadout does not suit the encounter. It also recommends using enemy weaknesses, but provides no examples, so check the options available in your game rather than assuming a particular affinity.
These are general tactics from the supplied draft, not verified testing or a boss-specific strategy.
