Stop attacking during Riposte; bullets can trigger it too. Attack after it ends, keeping room to dodge Flawless Advance. Then use Slam Fire when you have a clear shooting opportunity. Boot Kick pushes you off the enemy it hits; follow with a shot on that marked target if you can do so safely.
Attack Apollo with a teammate from separate positions so one Itani Lo Sahn cannot catch both of you. Keep your strongest attack for after Riposte ends, and avoid following Disengaging Sigil into his teammates.
Move out of Itani Lo Sahn’s path during its wind-up. Apollo is invulnerable during the slash sequence; when it ends, protect the affected ally and attack him together. After the slash sequence ends, in human form, use Slam Fire when you have a clear shot on Apollo.
