Section 01

Introduction

Blade Rising combat is designed around automated battles that reward long-term progression rather than manual inputs.

Every floor you climb, every enemy you defeat, and every Weak Point you strike feeds into a single loop of growing stronger.

Section 02

Combat Flow

Enemies appear on each Floor of Evil and are engaged automatically.

After the current enemies are defeated, combat continues until the floor's boss appears at the end.

Section 03

Enemy Types

Blade Rising features three main enemy categories: normal enemies, elite enemies and bosses.

Each type plays a different role in floor progression.

Section 04

Normal Enemies

Normal enemies form the bulk of any floor.

They are defeated quickly and represent standard combat progress.

Section 05

Elite Enemies

Elite enemies are stronger than normal enemies and appear alongside them.

They test your damage output before the boss encounter.

Section 06

Bosses

Every floor ends with a boss encounter.

Bosses have far more health and damage than normal enemies and gate access to the next floor.

Section 07

Weak Points

Weak Points appear on enemies during combat and can be struck for dramatically higher damage.

Prioritizing them is the fastest way to burst down elites and bosses.

Section 08

Combat Rewards

Defeating enemies awards resources that fuel Gathering, gear and Prestige progression.

Bosses provide the largest single rewards and unlock further floors.

Section 09

Tips

Upgrade your gear and hires between pushes to keep damage scaling.

Always take Weak Points when they appear.

Ascend when floor progress stalls to gain permanent Prestige power.
