How Celeste beats Grey Talon

Mystic vs Mystic

Spell duels are cooldown trades. Use yours after theirs.

Your game plan as Celeste

A showman. Celeste’s damage only comes out if you attack her — or stand in the light.

Lane
Light Eater marks enemies for extra damage and gives you spirit lifesteal. Dazzling Trick punishes anyone who bursts your barrier.
Mid game
Zone chokes with Radiant Daggers. The explosion is delayed, so place it where enemies will be, not where they are.
Late game
Shining Wonder bounces between grouped enemies and cuts dash distance — throw it into a clumped team before your dive.

How to beat Grey Talon

A hunter who wins fights before they start — from a rooftop, with a bow.

  • 01Dive him; Grey Talon is fragile up close.
  • 02Walk around armed Spirit Snares — they curse and slow.
  • 03Use cover. A clear sightline is his whole game.
