(big info dump. I'm a little hazy on where to put some of this. some if it is mechanical explanation, but some of those also bleed into meta gameplay use cases / suggestions. maybe consider a guide page or something eventually for TJS + Berdysh? -- this edit also has a few extra tidbits exclusive to TJS/SJS not included in my recent Berdysh edit)

Tsumikiri J-Sword's special attack is a 360° wave attack that deals {{note|1.89x|heavy attack}} damage and cannot miss. The attack requires 20 [[Photon Blast]] gauge to initiate, and the gauge is quickly decreased to 0. The attack can be repeatedly used until the Photon Blast gauge has been completely depleted. At 100 PB, a player may do a full 3-attack combo using the special attack. The special attack lingers and can deal multiple instances of damage to enemies that are vulnerable as they spawn.

The Special attack also lingers until PB is depleted. Each wave can deal damage to certain enemies that are vulnerable as they spawn, allowing for up to 3 simultaneous hits.

Sword icon.pngTsumikiri J-Sword is a rare sword obtained by unsealing the weapon Sword icon.pngSealed J-Sword, and one of the rarest items in the game.

Tsumikiri J-Sword's special attack is a 360° wave attack that deals Heavy attack damage and cannot miss. The attack requires 20 Photon Blast gauge to initiate, and the gauge is quickly decreased to 0. The attack can be used repeatedly if the player has enough PB.

If there is not enough PB to initiate a Special attack, an attack with Heavy attack physical damage and accuracy multipliers is performed instead.

With at least 79 PB (see Notes), a player may perform a full 3-attack combo using Special attacks. However, the minimum PB required to start a Special attack will fully deplete PB before the attack extends to its maximum range.

The game will display the PB gauge changing at a maximum rate of 1PB/frame. Tsumikiri J-Sword's PB drain rate is faster than 1PB/frame, which can lead to the Special attack dissipating earlier than expected and the PB gauge seeming to drain even after the weapon is unequipped.

The Special attack also lingers until PB is depleted. Each wave can deal damage to certain enemies that are vulnerable as they spawn, allowing for up to 3 simultaneous hits.

This weapon effectively outclasses Sword icon.pngBerdysh with similar Special attack behavior, but with higher ATP and Special attack damage multiplier.

As Tsumikiri J-Sword is a weapon originating from a sealed item, it can only have a maximum of two weapon attributes instead of the usual three.

Reskins

Tsumikiri J-Sword has Ephinea-exclusive cosmetic skins that can be obtained. This renames the Tsumikiri J-Sword to Tsumikiri J-Sword*. The skin can be removed via using Tool icon.pngNeutralizer, but you will not receive the used weapon skin back.

Each of these skins lack the blue bubble particle for the special attack. The pillar particles and the weapon otherwise functions normally.

Availability

Unsealing

Tsumikiri J-Sword can be obtained by selecting the "Use" option on a Sealed J-Sword with 23,000 kills accumulated.

Notes

  • Each Special attack can hit a maximum of 8 targets.
  • Similar to Berdysh, by using Tsumikiri J-Sword's Special attack and swapping to a different weapon, a player may prevent the Special attack from draining all of their PB. By buffering a weapon swap, players may intentionally drain as little as 38 PB. Intentional partial draining of PB may allow for players to more quickly re-achieve 100 PB Mag triggers.

Tsumikiri J-Sword's potential PB gain, with its higher weapon ATP and Special attack damage modifiers, is far more significant than Berdysh's potential PB gain under the same circumstances.
See Photon Blasts for PB gain formulas.
  • Although it is exceptionally rare, a Sealed J-Sword with Hit % is potentially worth keeping sealed, as it is the only multi-target weapon in the game that is capable of having Hit % as well as an unreduced Hell special. Additionally, Tsumikiri J-Sword does not benefit significantly from having Hit %, as its special attack is incapable of missing.
    • Note that an Sword icon.pngES Scythe with Hell Special matches the accuracy of a Sealed J-Sword with 5 Hit, and ES Scythe is typically only used by Rangers who have more base ATA than Hunters.
