The Lady’s Fan arts
The base kit contains two arts; another uses Power Surge, and tempering provides one more. Raise the weapon’s level to unlock the remaining arts. The guide to forge and weapon upgrades explains the process. In the art descriptions, Fire, Thunder, and Ice at the beginning of a line indicate sigils.
| Art | Unlocks | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Arcane Sigils | Base art | “[Heavy Attack] attacks store different [Arcane Sigils]. Up to 2 sigils can be stored. [Light Attack][Heavy Attack] Thunder [Light Attack][Heavy Attack][Heavy Attack] Thunder Fire [Light Attack][Light Attack][Heavy Attack] Fire [Light Attack][Light Attack][Heavy Attack][Heavy Attack] Fire Ice [Light Attack][Light Attack][Light Attack][Heavy Attack] Ice [Light Attack][Light Attack][Light Attack][Heavy Attack][Heavy Attack] Ice Thunder [Heavy Attack][Heavy Attack][Heavy Attack] repeats the most recent [Arcane Sigils].” |
| Sigil Burst | Base art | “[Block]+[Heavy Attack] consumes all [Arcane Sigils], regardless of order, to unleash different effects based on their combination: Fire Fire Unleashes a wave of fire around you, burning nearby enemies. Thunder Thunder Swings the fan to call down lightning on enemies. Ice Ice Leaves behind an ice construct that continuously fires ice spikes at enemies. Fire Thunder Swings the fan to invoke lightning and fire, striking and burning enemies. Fire Ice Increases all damage dealt and Sha-Chi Depletion for 30 seconds. Thunder Ice Steps backward. For the next 10 seconds, successfully performing a Parry calls down lightning on the attacker.” |
| Boundless Blight | Power Surge art (costs 1 Sha-Chi Essence) | “[Power Surge] Consumes 1 Sha-Chi Essence to open a rift to the Discordance, unleashing a storm of chaotic flame that engulfs all enemies in a wide area. Randomly stores 2 [Arcane Sigils].” |
| Dark Sigil Burst | Tempering art | “Greatly enhances all [Sigil Burst] effects. Sustained [Sigil Burst] effects last twice as long.” |
| The Lady’s Grace | Weapon level 5 | “Currently stored [Arcane Sigils] grant different passive effects: Fire Increases Attack. Thunder Increases Guard Break against enemies. Ice Increases Damage Reduction.” |
| Blight-Fueled Power | Weapon level 10 | “Lv. 1: Slightly increases all [The Lady’s Grace] effects. Lv. 2: Moderately increases all [The Lady’s Grace] effects. Lv. 3: Greatly increases all [The Lady’s Grace] effects.” |
| Dark Law | Weapon level 15 | “After Sigil Burst consumes a sigil, its [The Lady’s Grace] stays active for an additional 2 seconds. Gaining the same sigil again ends the effect.” |
| Master of the Arcane | Weapon level 25 | “Maximum stored [Arcane Sigils] increased by1. If 3 sigils are stored, Sigil Burst consumes 3 sigils to enhance its effect. Adds the following [Sigil Burst]: Fire Thunder Ice Fires a Chaotic Flame beam that pierces enemies.” |
What The Lady’s Fan is good for
The fan is built around a store-and-spend loop. Heavy Attack combos store Arcane Sigils (Fire, Thunder, or Ice, up to two at a time). Sigil Burst (Block + Heavy Attack) then spends them, and each combination does something different, from a wave of fire to an ice construct that keeps firing spikes.
Keeping sigils in reserve provides benefits as well. The Lady’s Grace gives you increased Attack with Fire, increased Guard Break with Thunder, and increased Damage Reduction with Ice. These sigil effects feed into both increasing damage and increasing defense. For an early-game main weapon, weigh the fan against the best weapons early on.
