Strategic Sword and Nameless Spear are your weapon of choice for the build with both weapons complementing each other's capabilities and gameplan.
Nameless Spear is capable of cc and commited burst while Strategic Sword plays similarly to its partner, Nameless Sword but instead of weaving out, weaves inside to combat instead while proccing bleed in the first place.
Strategic Sword and Nameless Spear Internal Arts

|---|---|---|---|---|---|

| Internal Art | Details |
|---|---|
 Morale Chant |
80% chance to gain one stack of Yi River when attacking or healing. Yi River: Increases Physical Damage and healing by 1% for 8 seconds, stacking up to 5 times. The chance to gain Yi River is only calculated once every 2 seconds. |
 Sword Horizon |
After casting Strategic Sword's Martial Arts Skill, Special Skill, or Charged Skill, press the skill button at the perfect timing during the ending phase to cast Crisscrossing Swords and unleash follow-up attacks. If the target has 5 stacks of Bleed, remove all Bleed stacks and deal high Bleed damage once. |
 Evasive Charge |
After a Perfect Dodge, there is a 50% chance to refund 100% of the Endurance consumed. |
 Fivefold Bleed |
Dealing damage has a 10% chance to apply one stack of Weeping Blood for 5 seconds, damaging the target once per second (up to 5 stacks, duration refreshed upon stacking). At 5 stacks, Weeping Blood will be removed from the target and deal piercing damage once. |
For our Innerways, we want to focus on damage, dot, and more bleed triggers. Sword Horizon is the exception as it adds an insane amount of options and value from Crisscrossing Swords that lets you trigger bleed when it reaches 5 stacks for burst damage.
Strategic Sword and Nameless Spear Mystic Arts
| Jump Table | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Overview | Martial Arts | Internal Arts | |||
| Mystic Arts | Set and Stats | How to Play | |||
| Stat Group | Recommended Substats |
|---|---|
 Dragon's Breath |
Drink to enter Intoxicated. Breath fire with Qi, dealing damage over 2 hits plus Ignition. Gain 15% Damage Reduction and Fortitude. Intoxicated: Lasts 30s. Dragon's Breath and Drunken Poet can be used without drinking. Ignition: Target takes damage every 0.5s for 8s. |
 Ghost Bind |
Flash before enemies, immobilizing up to 6 targets for 5s, and breaking their Vital Points. Ineffective against powerful enemies and players. Vital Points: These enemies have bound Qi bars. Breaking their Vital Points disables Qi regen and deals extra damage. |
 Dragon Head |
Channel your inner force to gather fallen leaves and dust, shaping them into a dragon's head. Strike enemies within range, dealing damage and knocking them back. This attack cannot trigger Critical, Precision Critical, or Graze damage. Grant 15% Damage Reduction and Super Armor while casting. |
 Lion's Roar |
Slam a giant bell, then unleash a deafening roar, dealing damage over 14 hits in a large area. Gain 15% Damage Reduction and Fortitude. Hitting a Toad Venom target detonates the venom,spreading it and increasing roar damage. |
For our combat mystic arts, Dragon's Breath gives us an extra ranged option that also applies DoT and is a good art to use when available. Ghost Bind gives us an immobilization option which is the same bonus that Nameless Spear gives us but on a bigger area.
Lastly, Dragon Head and Lion's Roar are generally good Mystic Arts that gives us damage reduction on use which is a nice buff to activate before commiting to fights.
Strategic Sword and Nameless Spear Set Gear and Stat Priorities

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Overview | Martial Arts | Internal Arts | |||
| Mystic Arts | Set and Stats | How to Play | |||
Set Gear
| Stat Group | Recommended Substats |
|---|---|
 HawkwingWeapon |
2 Set Effect: +0.1% Affinity Rate
4 Set Effect: When any of your damage triggers Affinity, gain Hawkwing: Increases Physical Attack by 2% for 5 seconds, stacking up to 5 times. |
 CalmwatersArmor |
2 Set Effect: +13 Physical Defense
4 Set Effect: A Perfect Dodge of an enemy attack has a 50% chance of restoring 3% of your Max HP and 10 Endurance. |
For our set gear, we want to focus on the Hawkwing set. With our multiple dots and hits, we'll have more chances to trigger affinity and get the 10% damage bonus rapidly with the set. For defensive sets, the Calmwaters enables our gameplay the most by giving us extra endurance per perfect dodges which is a crucial stat we want to manage in this build.
Stat Priority
For stats, we want to prioritize Affinity rate as much as possible followed by physical attack. These will be our main damage scalers and let us ramp up our DPS as much as possible.

Skill Rotation
- Initiate the fight with Strategic Sword's charged attack.
- Weapon swap to Nameless Spear and use Qiankun's Lock to immobilize them followed by Storm Dance (Charged heavy attack).
- Swap back to strategic sword. From here, use Inner Balance Strike III to increase your distance with the target or use Inner Track Slash then activate Crisscross Slash to trigger the bleed stacks.
- If you decided to increase the gap with Inner Balance Strike III, you can follow it up with Ghost Bind to immobilize enemies and follow it with Inner Track Slash to re-enter the fight and activate Crisscross Slash to pop the bleed again.
Play Around 5 Bleed Stacks and Triggering Bonus Effects
5 Bleed stacks is the Strategic Sword's game and activating effects from it such as Crisscross Slash and Inner Balance Strike III is key to amplifying your damage output. Always use these skills before bleed effect expires to capitalize on damage output.
Use Qiankun's Lock and Ghost Bind to Stop Enemies
Qiankun's Lock and Ghostbind are strong immobilizing tools that you can use to setup or extend combos by stopping enemies in their track. Stop enemies to use light attacks and recover energy or use skills freely to stack up bleed from Strategic Sword.
Only use Storm Dance Against Immobilized Enemies
Storm Dance (Nameless Spear's Charged Attack) is a high damage move but it requires a stationary target to be effective. Use Qiankun's Lock of Ghostbind to stop enemies then follow it up with Storm Dance for high DPS. You can also combo it by using a bleeding skill from Strategic Sword first before immobilizing enemies to trigger DoT on enemies while you're comboing with relentless spear hits.
