Counter for free<\/h3>\n<div class=\"card__description-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"card__description\">\n<p>When you see an RT (on controller) appear on an enemy, it means you can use your equipped Phantom Edge without it costing a spark, so make sure to take advantage of this.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"card card--standard card--rows-3 card--align-inline\">\n<div class=\"card-image-widthsetter\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 100%\" class=\"card__image\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/ive-spent-over-50-hours-in-phantom-blade-zero-here-are-my-top-20-tips-to-conquer-the-wulin-12.jpg\" alt=\"Phantom Blade Zero tips - Forge\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"card__content\">\n<h3 class=\"card__title\">13.
