Juggernaut arts

Juggernaut carries a base art, a Tempering art, a Power Surge art and four more that open up as the weapon levels. Raising that level happens through forge upgrades.

Restless WaveWeapon level 15“Hold [Block]+[Heavy Attack] to charge. Release to unleash a blade wave that deals damage and applies 1 stack of [Bandit-Slayer Mark] to the enemy. The next attack to hit the marked enemy deals increased damage and has increased Sha-Chi Depletion.”

What Juggernaut is good for

Juggernaut is built around parrying. Every parry adds a stack of [Red Edge], and once the stacks are maxed the blade turns red. Pressing [Heavy Attack] then fires Crimson Wheel Slash, which spends the stacks on one powerful attack.

A second layer comes from [Bandit-Slayer Mark]: the Power Surge art Bandit-Slaying Rampage and Restless Wave (weapon level 15) both apply it, and Unfading Sunset, the Tempering art, makes Crimson Wheel Slash keep your [Red Edge] stacks when it hits a marked enemy. Its description also notes strong shield-breaking ability, making learning how to Guard Break enemies useful.
