Now (probably): 'Yeh, so same thing, but Kerachole and Holos reach the whole arena, last the full phase, and Panhaima is literally designed for 'multiple hits in a row' mechanics like this.' Or as SCH, 'Expedient not only helps you survive, it helps you get to the position too! Consolation is your Panhaima, and you can throw one Deploy Adlo out before it starts for the first of the three hits'

The one saving grace would be if there's nothing to target in that exact moment, so Pneuma cannot be used (I don't remember if there is or not), but even then if there's nothing to hit, just press E.Prog
There is a target, two in fact. That part of the fight is when the two knights appear that must be tanked apart. Since Pneuma is a line AoE, it might be possible as well for Pneuma to hit both knights. Generally they are tanked on opposite ends of the arena facing away from the center since they do frontal damage, so it's unlikely that you will get Pneuma to hit both, or that it would even matter really, but just a thought.
