Tips from the masters

Things every disciple should know.

Qi & Cultivation13

Meditate, condense Qi, break through the realms.

Qi & Qi Max

Your reserve fuels techniques; your Qi Max is your cultivation.

Meditation

Tap C to sit in the lotus: catch the motes of Qi with your gaze, the reserve fills, then condenses into Qi Max.

9 realms36 stages More info

Realms & stages

Nine realms of four stages. Stages break through on their own.

Qinggong: the air leap

From Qi Guiding, jump again in mid-air to leap off your Qi. Each realm jumps higher and falls farther unhurt. From Core Formation, you fly on your sword.

−5 % per stagemax −75 % More info

Realm bonuses

Each realm gives health, damage, speed, armour; the weak barely scratch the strong.

Inner world

Hold C 7 s while seated, with 80 % of your Qi, to open an island built to your image and to your martial art.

Hold G: the world turns grey as if you were blind, and only Qi keeps its colour: the auras of every being, the columns of the strong, and higher up the blows to come, the living behind walls and the hidden. The farther it reaches, the more it costs, and the eyes tire.

Qi from kills

Kills refill your reserve and add a little Qi Max; first boss wins add much more.

Death penalty

Each real death costs 10 % of your Qi Max, but never a stage.

Cultivation methods

Not a martial art but a way of cultivating: practise one method at a time. Each condenses more Qi in its own places and gives a small effect that grows over three levels.

Running on water

From Qi Liquidation, sprint over still water: it holds you at its surface for 3 Qi a second. Slow down and you sink.

The aura's pressure

From Foundation Establishment, release your aura with H and it weighs on weaker mobs around you: the weaker falter, the far weaker are crushed to the ground. With 10,000 Qi held, the ground breaks under your steps.

Inner worlds of the arts

Your inner world takes the look of your main style and its element: thirteen worlds, one per martial art.

Combat7

Epic Fight combat with Murim rules.

Murim Guard & perfect parry

Raise your guard just before the hit to cancel it completely.

Riposte

After a perfect parry, your next technique is stronger and half price.

Dodge, lock-on & combos

Roll with Left Alt, lock on with G. Repeated hits weaken.

Technique damage & burst cap

Techniques scale with your weapon and Qi Max; no combo kills a player at once.

Knockdown (PvP K.O.)

A lethal hit from a player knocks you down instead of killing you.

V carryB execute More info

Carry & execute

Carry a downed player off with V, or finish them with B.

Swing trails

Every Murim weapon leaves a pixel ribbon of its own colour behind its swing.
