How to Play the Clash of Lone Blades

Talk to the designated Martial Artists

After completing the True Tales of the Violet Garden: Act 3 quest and unlocking the event, a new duel against a sword master with unique abilities will unlock each day.

Pick A Stage Difficulty

You can choose the difficulty of the fight, between Serious, Dire, or Perilous, before starting the challenge.

Honed Techniques

Each Martial Artist will have their own Honed Technique that you can check through the event menu after talking to them. When an opponent is about to used their Honed Technique, their weapon will shine brightly, so watch out!

New Parry Mechanic

Instead of Elemental Skills or Bursts, players will only be able to use a parry mechanic, which will allow you to take a defensive stance and reduce incoming damage. Using this requires timing your attacks, much like holding Beidou's Elemental Skill!

Fight using the Traveler

During this event, only the Traveler can be used in battle, and their weapon or build cannot be changed.

Use Perfect Parries to deal massive damage

When you use a Parry just as the opponent strikes, the Traveler will receive no damage and reset the Parry's cooldown.

If you perform this ''Perfect Parry'' against an opponent's Honed Technique, they will receive a huge amount of damage that can help you defeat them!

Obtain Stacks of Valor with Perfect Parries

The ''Perfect Parry'' will earn you 1 stack of Valor, with a maximum of three stacks. Stacks of Valor guarantee that your next hit will be a Crit Hit, which uses up all the stacks that you have.
