Clear nearby Deadheads before taking a long exchange with Graves, and go around Grasping Hands’ rift. Take cover when Essence Theft weakens your weapon damage and Spirit resistance.

Clear summons threatening your Walker before chasing Graves. Destroy Borrowed Decree’s gravestone with two heavy melees when your team can protect you.

Late game · Patron

Clear summons threatening your route, then use Flawless Advance to reach Graves outside Grasping Hands. Save Disengaging Sigil to get back out. Use Riposte for an incoming hero attack.
