If you’ve explored the map ofWuthering Waveseven a bit, you might’ve already noticed some special enemies with a daunting red mist around them. Apart from their appearance and attack pattern, these enemies differ quite a lot from their normal counterparts, which you may find all across the map.

The main difference is that most of these red mist enemies will give you a purple or gold echo when they’re defeated, regardless ofyour Data Bank level. Moreover, these enemies don’t reset with server time, but they do come back after a few days.

How To Defeat Red Mist Enemies

If you’ve encountered one of the high-level Red Mist enemies during the early stages, you might be wondering why you have such difficult enemies in your world. This is essentially because thelevel of these enemies doesn’t change with your SOL Phase, which means that you’ll always find them with the level mentioned above.

One way to defeat these enemies is by leaving them until you have enough power. However,you may still defeat these enemies even with a level one character. This is done by making use of counter attacks. These attacks trigger when you press the basic attack button right after performing a successful dodge.

This works a lot better in single-player mode since yourgame gets slow motion with a successful dodge.

If you learn the attack pattern for these high-level enemies andconsistently perform dodge counter on them, you’ll be able to defeat them quite fast.
