Yellow Wind Sage
Where to go
Yellow Wind Ridge · the sand basin below Windseal Gate / the Cellar routes.
Before you can fight
Chapter 2 finale. The Tiger and Stone key items open the chapter’s gates. The Kingdom of Sahali is an optional detour, not a requirement to face him.

What to watch
- His close-range kick can lead to a grab. Watch his body cue instead of committing to another light combo.
- Later wind pressure changes the fight. Wind Tamer, earned from Fuban, can interrupt that pressure; leave it available for the phase giving you trouble.
A focused practice plan
- Decide whether to detour for Wind Tamer. Pin it to your collection if that is today’s goal.
- Check your shrine upgrades and healing supply. Save the actual setup you will use, including anything outside this catalog in the notes.
- Use a short first attempt to identify one recovery window. Test a single attack or heal there on the next attempt; avoid changing three tools at once.
Session question: Which cue tells me the combo is finished, and can I heal there without trading a hit?
