Swords are one of the three core combat paths in Haze Seas, sitting alongside Devil Fruits and Fighting Styles. A good blade lets you deal consistent melee damage, chain stylish combos and — crucially — hit Logia Devil Fruit users who would otherwise shrug off elemental attacks. This guide breaks down every sword in Haze Seas, including its moveset, how to obtain it, and where it ranks on our tier list.
Swords in Haze Seas level up through a Mastery system: the more you use a blade, the more of its moveset unlocks. Most swords open with a Z move at Mastery 0 and gain their X, C and further skills at Mastery 25, 50 and beyond. Because Mastery is per-weapon, switching blades means starting that grind again, so it pays to commit to a sword that fits your playstyle.

All Haze Seas Swords
WhiteBlade
Tier: B | Role: Starter katana | Status: Obtainable
WhiteBlade is a clean, beginner-friendly blade with straightforward slashes. Its V2 form is tied to a UGC limited cosmetic, making it a neat flex for collectors while still holding up as an early-game weapon.

Katana
Tier: C | Role: Basic starter sword | Status: Obtainable
The Katana is the most basic sword in Haze Seas, with just a Sword Draw and Air Slash. It’s a fine training weapon while you learn the combat, but you’ll outgrow it fast.

|---|---|---|
| Z | Sword Draw | Mastery 0 |
