Rouge Box item card: effect and description
Rouge Box is a “Support” accessory. Its effect line reads “After consuming Sha-Chi, reduces the delay before regeneration begins by 50%.”
The item description reads:
“The rouge inside was a gift from Jin to his younger sister, Xiu. It caught his eye as he passed a shop, and he knew at once that she would love the color. Yet the rouge became tainted by the Sha-Chi that clung to Jin, and now seems redder than ever.”
How to polish Rouge Box
Polishing happens at Jewel. One polish takes the delay reduction from 50% to 90%.
| Level | Effect | Cost |
|---|---|---|
| Base | “After consuming Sha-Chi, reduces the delay before regeneration begins by 50%.” | None |
| Polish 1 | “After consuming Sha-Chi, reduces the delay before regeneration begins by 90%.” | 17,856 Remnant Dust + Tainted Crystal Shard |
For Polish 1, you’ll need 17,856 Remnant Dust and one Tainted Crystal Shard. Buy the shard from Quick Hand Zhang for 7,440 Remnant Dust, or locate a Tainted Crystal Shard in the world. Polishing changes only the numbers unless its polish line specifies otherwise.
What Rouge Box is good for
Spending Sha-Chi starts a regeneration wait that’s cut by 50%; polishing increases that reduction to 90%. As a result, Sha-Chi returns faster in the gaps between combos. For details on using it, see the Sha-Chi combos breakdown, and consult guard stance and blocking for how to hold your ground between them.
