PARALYZED SHADOW (AIRFORM) GUIDE ON STAR RAIL

By defeating the Paralyzed Shadow – Form of Air in Honkai Star Rail we will get the Eye of the Gale, an ascension item necessary for characters of the Wind element like Dan Heng .

The fight consists of three different enemies: a Windbreaker, a Fire Spawn and a Frost Spawn. On this occasion, the minions that accompany the main enemy will die almost in one hit, so it will be a much easier fight than that of other Paralyzed Shadows such as the Form of Doom in which we faced enemies that spammed all the time and they recovered part of their HPs when dealing a lethal blow to it.

This enemy is characterized by causing Weather to our characters, this effect itself all it does is inflict a little Wind Damage at the beginning of several turns, but the Windbreaker needs to affect us with said negative state to be able to generate its most powerful attack; so if we bring characters who can remove negative statuses with their abilities, beating this Paralyzed Shadow will be a walk.

PARALYZED SHADOW LOCATION AND UNLOCK REQUIREMENTS

To have access to the Paralyzed Shadow – Doom Form or any other type of Paralyzed Shadow, we will have to have reached at least level 30 of Pathfinder and have promoted the world to balance level 2 .

This Paralyzed Shadow is on the planet Jarilo-VI, we can engage in combat against the air form in the central part of Villaremache .

ATTACK GUIDE

These are all the attacks that the Windbreaker can perform:

• Meteor Patrol : Attacks a single character to inflict Wind Damage, has a high chance to affect them with Weather.
• Windwalker : An area attack that affects the target and the characters adjacent to it, deals a little Wind Damage and can affect them with Weather.
• Windbreak Bow : The enemy fixes all the characters in our group that are affected by Weather, in his next action he will perform Wind Storm against all the characters marked in this movement.
• Windstorm : A powerful blow that deals Wind Damage to all allies under the effects of Weather; in the event that there is no character under these effects, this attack will be cancelled.
• Stormy Cyclone : ​​This movement allows you to increase your ATK slightly after attacking allies that are under the effects of Weather. Any ATK stacks he has received this way can be nullified by causing him a Weakness Break.

This is the only attack that Frostspawn and Firespawn can perform:

• Disturbance : Inflicts a small amount of Cold Damage or Fire Damage (depending on the color of the spawn it will do one or the other) to one of our characters.

ENEMY WEAKNESSES AND RECOMMENDED CHARACTERS

The Windbreaker is weak to the following elements :

• Ice.
• Fire.
• Imaginary.

While the Igneous Spawn is vulnerable to these elements:

• Ice.
• Physical.

Finally, these are the vulnerabilities of the Frostspawn:

• Fire.
• Wind.

These are the characters that we recommend the most according to their routes :

• 1 Hunt : To deal a lot of damage to the boss.
  • Yanqing : Undoubtedly one of the best DPS we can take against this Paralyzed Shadow is Yanqing, but the enemy tends to make frequent area attacks that will jeopardize his Talent bonuses (since if he takes damage, he loses them), so it would be a good idea to accompany him with another character that focuses the enemy’s attention and is placed in a position not adjacent to Yanqing.
  • Sushang : Even if the enemy doesn’t have a weakness to Physical Element, we can take Sushang as an alternative if we don’t have Yanqing, since characters like Dan Heng are discarded as DPS because the enemy is resistant to Wind.
  • Seele : She is not the best character for this combat but she is one of the strongest characters on this route, so we can take her anyway if we have her in our ranks.
• 1 Destruction : As in this combat the minions are extremely weak, it will be better to take a character from the Way of Destruction instead of an Erudite one.
  • Hook : It specializes in constantly inflicting Burn on the enemy and as it belongs to the Element of Fire it will help us to inflict Weakness Breaks on it.
• 1 Nihility/Harmony : To sabotage the statistics of the enemies and apply detrimental states to them or, on the contrary, a character to provide bonuses to the group.
  • Asta : Asta’s Basic Ability is very good at creating Weakness Breaks when there are few enemies, so he will be a very good character to break the Windbreaker’s stamina bar. In addition, he will give us ATK bonuses when using his Basic Ability and SPD bonuses when executing his Ultimate Ability.
  • Pela : The Windbreaker has a weakness for the Ice Element, so Pela can be a good option to lower its firmness bar while we reduce its DEF with Pela’s abilities.
  • Welt : The slowdown with which he can affect the enemy will be very useful to delay his turn and have more time to cancel his most powerful attack.
  • Bronya : Although the enemy is resistant against the Wind Element, we don’t care about taking Bronya because her function is to empower the characters on our team. Additionally, Bronya can remove Weathering debuffs on our allies by using her Basic Ability on them.
• 1 Abundance/Conservation : To survive the battle.
  • Natasha : In addition to occupying the position of healer , Natasha can eliminate the negative effect of Weather using her Basic Ability (for this you have to have her first Additional Ability activated) in order to prevent the enemy’s strongest attack.
  • Pathfinder Fire : By using any of his abilities he will create a shield for the entire party , in addition, both his empowered blow and his final will be useful for us to lower the firmness bars of the Windbreaker.
  • Siete de Marzo : In addition to covering the shielder positionand being able to help lower the strength bar of the enemy, the first Additional Ability of Siete de Marzo allows us to eliminate a negative state when using its Basic Ability. This will help us to stop the strongest blow of the Windbreaker.
  • Gepard : Being of the Ice Element it will help us to generate Weakness Breaks to Windstorm Maker, the powerful shield that it generates with its Definitive for 3 turns will also be very useful to protect us from the enemy’s strongest attacks if we cannot cancel them in time.
  • Bailu : Provides very high heals with his abilities and can resurrect a fallen ally once during battle, but he can’t remove negative statuses with his abilities and his element doesn’t match any enemy’s weaknesses (so if he performs any Basic Attack , it won’t even help lower the firmness bar).

Equipment Suggestions :

• Yanqing, Hook, Pela and Gepard.
• Sushang, Hook, Asta and March Seven.
• Yanqing, Hook, Welt and Trazacaminos Fuego.
• Seele, Hook, Bronya and Natasha.
