The Ultimate Beginner's Guide to Heian Culture and Practices

Starting your adventure in Heian, the Jujutsu Kaisen-inspired Roblox game, can be quite challenging.

4. Weapons in Heian

The Weapons in Heian offer you various ways to progress. You can craft them, receive them as drops from slain enemies, or earn them as rewards for quests. Defeating formidable foes is one of the best ways to obtain the strongest weapons. Here are top tips for beginners:

  • Craft, receive drops from enemies, or earn them through quests.
  • Defeating strong enemies increases your chances of getting high-quality weapons.
  • Bosses/Unique Enemies may guarantee a powerful weapon drop.
  • Collect all resources because you might need them for crafting.

5. Armor & Clothing in Heian

Currently, Armor and Clothing in Heian are entirely cosmetic and don’t affect gameplay mechanics. You can craft or find pieces through enemy drops or specific quests. Here are beginner tips for armor:

  • Armor and Clothing provide no defense or stats.
  • These items can be crafted, looted, or acquired via quests.
  • There’s a diverse range of armor and clothing for every body part.

6. Items & Consumables in Heian

Items and Consumables usually drop from enemies or can be harvested from the environment. They are vital for healing, rerolling stats, and completing questlines. The rarity of items varies from Common to Legendary, with the latter being much tougher to obtain. Here’s what you should know:

  • Collect everything you see, though flowers may be less important.
  • Visit Merchants in towns to purchase potions and consumables.
  • Defeating tough enemies can net you rarer items.

7. Enemies in Heian

Enemies in Heian vary widely, including hostile Cursed Spirits and other players. While Cursed Spirits pose a significant challenge, they are your main foes. Be wary of other players, as they might attempt to attack you. Here are some essential tips for dealing with enemies:

  • As a newcomer, if you lack a Cursed Technique, avoid Cursed Spirits.
  • Prepare for combat if another player approaches you quickly.
  • Enemies can stun you just as you can stun them.
  • Defeating enemies might provide precious items.

8. Clans in Heian

It’s a common misconception that Clans in Heian provide bonuses; they are purely cosmetic, primarily determining hair color. Rare clans exist, such as Gojo and Ryomen, which grant unique appearances. Despite their appeal, only special clans like the Gojo and Michizane give access to notable abilities.

  • Clans do not provide any stats; they merely alter your hair color.
  • You can reroll your Clan by creating a new character.
  • A visit to the barber in Kirishima Village allows hair shape customization.

9. Stats and Skill Points in Heian

As you engage in Heian, you’ll earn Skill Points when leveling up. These can be utilized to boost Stats or enhance Mastery Levels, directly impacting your efficiency in combat. Here’s a breakdown:

  • Agility: Improves wall-climbing abilities.
  • Vitality: Increases your maximum health.
  • Strength: Boosts damage for strength-based weapons.
  • Cursed Energy: Amplifies your Cursed Energy and boosts Cursed Technique damage marginally.
  • Cursed Output: Enhances Cursed Technique damage.
  • Light, Medium, and Heavy Mastery: Elevates the damage for their corresponding weapon types.

10. Rune Stones in Heian

Rune Stones enable quick teleportation between locations in Heian. Approach and interact with them to activate; once registered, they become available for fast travel. Here are some tips regarding Rune Stones:

  • Activate all Rune Stones you come across.
  • A notification will alert you when near a new Rune Stone.
  • After activation, interact again to select a teleport destination.
  • Rune Stones are situated near villages and major spots.
  • You can teleport freely, as Rune Stones have no cooldown.
