The First Descendant - No Skill; Only Grind

If you are struggling in this game, don't feel bad. It is not a skill issue; it is a grind issue.
The first time I tried this fight, I was bobbin'-n-weavin' like a madperson and barely taking a hit while putting out what I thought was a ton of a damage. Game over due to time.
So I went out and grinded for hours, and came back to this clear. I am not even really trying to dodge a lot of the time, and this gets me the clear. This game isn't about player skill, it is about player time. You have to put in hours grinding to win.
Wouldn't have been an issue if the game did have arbitrary timers in these fights.
