Combat techniques - no changes
Dagger Arts:
- Threading the Needle, a length-wise attack that combines speed and curved attacks
- Impact Strike - used to deliver large amounts of concentrated force on the tip
- Side Winder - piercing attack to break through a formation
- Flow - similar to Threading the Needle, but the trajectory is more curved. It uses Shadow flames to boost damage.
- Scar - X-like cut with shadow flames
- Focus strike - concentrate strength beyond his limits into one strike, paralyzing the side of his body that uses this attack. Upon impact, unleash all the brutal force to cause enough damage to disintegrate the surrounding wound

Daggerless Arts:
- Cocoon: Barrier ability made from cutting intent
Energy Techniques - no changes
- Flashstep: High-speed movement ability in a single direction. The average speed increases as his stats and control of energy increases, but he can go faster if he is willing to damage his body.
- Solid Core: Crystalizes the energy around the skin and muscles to gain a diamond-like defense. Decreased mobility while this is active
- Shadow Flames: Energy wraps around his weapon and vibrates at a high frequency to achieve a boost in sharpness. Also cuts anything it touches and can spread like flames. Very intensive in durability costs.
- Shadow Core (passive): Boosts the effectiveness of his energy, constantly upgrades as he refines more energy stats into it, can also act as a final form of energy when broken down.
- Crystallizing weapons: Applying the logic of Solid Core to weapons to increase resistance to damage. Also acts like a spare battery pack for his energy when running low.

- Dance of Death: Ability of Reapers that allows him to summon 3 silhouettes that move on their own and swap positions with. Very energy intensive since it's a percentage cost.
- Ultimate - Shadow Devour(restricted): A powerful finisher that is designed to kill any target, regardless of regen or resistance. Uses the concepts of infection and mutation to achieve this. This move is currently restricted because his energy lacks a certain violent property that comes from being around high-density dark environments (EverNight). To get around this flaw, Genji created a technique that damages his Shadow Core to infuse his energy with this trait.
Masteries - Dodging broke through to supreme
- Dodging Supreme (0.2%, new level)
[Dodging]
Level: Supreme (0.2%)
Supreme level bonus: Your body will now instinctively avoid danger, even those that you don’t sense. If an attack is faster than you can dodge, you can perform a short burst to abruptly shift your position.
Note: This is an extremely taxing ability. It’s recommended that you use this sparingly, as each trigger signifies a death you have avoided. Just because you can dodge better doesn’t mean you should dive into danger over and over again.
Description: The best way to dodge is to avoid being attacked in the first place. But if you have no choice, you can at least preserve your life. All it takes is squeezing out more potential than you have and forcing your body to move beyond its limits.
Note 2: Psst. Young man, stop abusing your willpower to overdraw your body. No matter how miraculous it is, it can’t be healthy.
