Official in-game grade

Tier 7of 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

Vajra Sect internal study.

When to use it

Use Changing Tendons, Shrinking Bones as a defensive foundation for slow, sturdy fist or pestle plans that care more about surviving exchanges than racing for burst.

Beginner note

It is strong, but it can feel slow. New players should make sure they still have a clear damage art and movement answer.
