Tier 9of 9 · Accessible (Tier 7-9)
Grade is the martial art's official in-game tier from the Taiwupedia (Tier 1–9). Tier 1 is the rarest with the highest ceiling; Tier 9 is the most basic and widely available. A lower tier number is not automatically better for a first run — access, practice level, and weapon-range fit usually matter more early.
How to obtain
Ranshan Sect movement manuals.
When to use it
Use Five Ghosts Step to create tactical windows rather than just move faster. On Ranshan it is a setup tool, opening the timing gaps that the faction's hybrid arts exploit.
Beginner note
Treat movement here as active, not passive. The build wants you to use footwork to manufacture openings, which takes more intent than a simple speed bonus.

- Movement arts are matchup tools: value them when they solve spacing, escape, or chase problems your weapon cannot answer by itself.
- Tier 9 means this is accessible enough to test early, especially when it matches your faction and weapon plan.
- Its mobility, setup tags are the quickest way to decide whether this art belongs in your current route or a later experiment.
- Ranshan Sect access matters: compare it with the related arts below before spending scarce study time outside your main faction plan.

Is this just a speed boost?
No. On a tactical faction like Ranshan, it is a setup art: use it to create windows for your other arts, not only to escape.
Who should use Five Ghosts Step?
Players who enjoy combo-style timing and want movement to be part of their offense, not just defense.
