Deflecting, an operation in the Sixteen Sounds of Yan Yun that people both love and hate — not only can it turn danger into safety under enemy attacks, but it can also reduce the opponent's true qi. However, this seemingly simple technique actually requires extremely high operational and reaction skills from players. Today, I will introduce the deflecting technique of the Sixteen Sounds of Yan Yun. I will bring you a comprehensive guide full of practical advice, from manual operation to automatic assistance, helping you fully master this challenging skill!

To put it simply, deflecting is a defensive technique that involves countering just before an enemy attack lands. After triggering it, players can dodge the current damage and weaken the enemy's true qi reserves, which can be a powerful tool to turn the tide in battles. So, what is the essence of deflecting? It lies in timing — pressing the corresponding key (default E key) at the exact moment the attack is about to hit.

If you are confident in your reaction speed and rhythm control, you can choose to complete the deflecting operation manually. In short, press the E key just as the enemy's normal attack is about to hit you. After a successful deflect, you can not only be immune to the current damage but also see the enemy's true qi bar reduced, delivering a psychological and practical blow. However, manual operation requires very high reaction speed and judgment. Any hesitation or premature key press will lead to a failed deflect.

For beginners or those who are not fast enough with their hands, enabling the "assisted deflect" function would be more reliable. This feature provides a noticeable flash prompt on the screen when the enemy is about to hit you, and time slows down briefly, giving you extra reaction time. You just need to press the E key at the moment the prompt appears to easily complete the deflect. However, note that assisted deflect consumes Insight points, and if there are insufficient Insight points, this function cannot be used. Therefore, players relying on this feature should learn to use Insight points wisely.

After mastering the basic operations, to take it to the next level, pay attention to some small tips. First, observe the enemy's movement patterns. Normal enemy attacks usually have fixed pre-attack animations or attack rhythms, and familiarity with these patterns can help you predict the key timing, increasing the success rate of deflects. Second, don't be greedy; prioritize survival in critical moments. Deflecting may look cool, but you don't need to challenge every enemy attack. Especially when Insight points are low or you're in poor condition, choosing to evade attacks might be safer. Finally, try combining assisted deflect with manual deflect. Flexibly switch between the two modes based on actual combat situations. Practice manual deflect against simple enemies and rely on assisted deflect during intense boss fights for better efficiency.

The above is the content of the introduction to the deflecting techniques of the Sixteen Sounds of Yan Yun. Deflecting not only tests players' reaction abilities but also requires a deep understanding of battle rhythm and enemy moves.
