Brave Fencer Musashi — what should I check first in Basic Systems?
Musashi uses 2 swords for different purposes. The katana Fusion absorbs enemy abilities through Assimilation, while the legendary Lumina equips the Five Scrolls to activate special powers. Learning their different roles early and switching according to the situation is the quickest way to improve.

1. Attacks Do Not Damage the Boss
Cause: Insufficient use of weaknesses or absorbed abilities
Solution: Check the boss's elemental weaknesses and effective absorbed abilities before challenging it
2. Cannot Progress Through a Puzzle
Cause: Overlooking a mechanism's steps or a required action
Solution: Observe the room's mechanisms and try actions you have learned
3. Not Enough Health or Energy
Cause: Healing too late
Solution: Recover in a safe area and avoid excessive consecutive battles
Musashi uses 2 swords for different purposes. The katana Fusion absorbs enemy abilities through Assimilation, while the legendary Lumina equips the Five Scrolls to activate special powers. Learning their different roles early and switching according to the situation is the quickest way to improve.
- ▸ Fusion is the katana used for Assimilation, or absorbing abilities
- ▸ Lumina is the legendary sword that equips the Five Scrolls and activates their powers
- ▸ Learn the basic controls for normal attacks, guarding, and evasion early
Striking an enemy with Fusion lets you use Assimilation to absorb its ability. Using an absorbed ability consumes BP, or Bincho Power, and you can hold only 1 ability at a time. Abilities range from shooting and stunning to movement assistance, and you switch between them to overcome stage mechanisms.
- ▸ Absorbable abilities differ by enemy, and only 1 type can be held at a time
- ▸ Using abilities consumes BP, so watch the amount remaining
- ▸ Remember which enemies provide abilities needed to overcome mechanisms
Equip Lumina with the Five Scrolls, modeled after Miyamoto Musashi's The Book of Five Rings, then charge the gauge to activate them. Their varied effects include shaking the ground to stop enemies, walking on water, and surrounding yourself with fire, making them particularly useful against bosses. Musashi's level cap is raised by defeating chapter bosses.
- ▸ Charge the gauge to activate Scroll powers, which are key to boss strategies
- ▸ Defeating chapter bosses, called Crest Guardians, raises the level cap
- ▸ Manage both HP and BP during combat
