Boss Statistics

Overview

• Li Shuwen stands alone in this exhibition quest, a Lancer with three HP bars (443k, 724k, 1.2M HP), equipped with multiple special Ki skills that require Ki trait stacks to use.
• Li Shuwen can gain or lose Ki in the following ways:
• Starts with 3 stacks of Ki
• Loses 2 stacks when hit by an NP
• Gains 2 stacks when defeating an enemy
• Gains 3 stacks on first break
• Gains 5 stacks on second break
• When no Ki stacks are available, gains 3/5/7 Ki stacks after 3 turns on 1st/2nd/3rd HP bar. During this time while recharging Ki, he has takes much less damage but also deals less damage, having a massive 90% Damage Resist, is NP Sealed, and has a sizeable 80% ATK debuff on himself.
• Li Shuwen also often starts his first action each turn with one of three Ki Skills. Each of his Ki skills gain new effects with each Break Bar!
• If an enemy has Evade/Invincible: 40% chance to use Light Strides (Costs 1 Ki):
• Apply Ignore Invincible (1 turn) (1st HP Bar).
• Additionally gains Crit Rate +50% (3 turns) (2nd HP Bar).
• Additionally gains Crit Damage +50% (3 turns). (3rd HP Bar).
• If he is inflicted with Poison, Skill Seal, or NP Seal: 20% chance to use Qigong (Costs 1 Ki):
• Clear own debuffs. (1st HP Bar).
• Additionally gains DEF +30% (5 turns) (2nd HP Bar).
• Additionally gains UNREMOVABLE Guts (1 time, 50k Revival, stackable with break effect) (3rd HP Bar).
• If the above two aren't satisfied: 40% chance to use Trembling Legs (Costs 1 Ki):
• Charge own NP Bar to MAX (1st HP Bar).
• Additionally gains Instant Death Rate +500% (1 turn) (2nd HP Bar).
• Additionally gains NP Strength +100% (1 turn) (3rd HP Bar).
• Also note his NP has a base 40% Instant Death rate.
• During his 1st HP/2nd HP Bar:
• Inflicting Poison or Skill/NP Seal are useful since his second Ki skill isn't very harmful during the 1st and 2nd HP Bar. However, it should be avoided during the third HP bar since the unremovable Guts effect can become detrimental!
• During his 3rd HP Bar:
• Having an Evade or Invincible buff active can stop him from instantly charging his NP Bar if he has any Ki stacks left. He also cannot bypass Anti-Enforcement Defense (Altria Caster's NP buff) with Ignore Invincibility, so the main thing to worry about is the instant death effect of his NP.

Team Recommendations

• Single Target Saber Servants are excellent damage dealer choices, given the boss is alone and is Lancer-Class.
• Poison/Skill Seal/NP Seal debuff inflicting Servants can also be useful to force Li Shuwen to waste Ki cleansing debuffs during his first two HP bars, although it is not suggested to continue using these for his final HP bar.
• Taunt Support is particularly helpful since the boss has a single target NP that has a high chance of instant death. Masters can either opt to sacrifice a Servant to cycle Servants from the back line more quickly, or they can use Servants with targetable Taunt skills on a Servant with innately low Instant Death rates (such as Moon Cancer Class Servants).
• Event Damage CE should be equipped on the damage dealer, ideally max limit-broken to maximize damage dealt to the boss!
