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. Charge Power Slash beside cover. Follow with Flying Slash when your partner can help, saving stamina for the way out.
Clear summons threatening your Walker before chasing Graves. Destroy Borrowed Decree’s gravestone with two heavy melees when your team can protect you.
Assign someone to clear the summons while the rest of your team contests the objective. If you can safely reach Borrowed Decree’s gravestone, destroy it with two heavy melees to stop that source of Ghouls. Avoid following Graves through Grasping Hands. Use Power Slash from a safe position before closing on Graves. Save Shadow Transformation for a fight your team can support.
