There will occasionally be tough enemies to pass through in the game. They will typically guard the next part of the level or a shop or inn. You can pass through them to reach later sections so you can grind on the more lucrative enemies faster.

Here’s how you do it: you rotate left or right, then rotate back to face the enemy. After going back to facing forward, press up and 1 on the controller. You will run straight through the powerful enemy and won’t need to beat it for the time being. Is frame perfect but with low urgency.
