Clans
Kocho Clan
Kocho supports Insect Breathing with Poison Draw Mode, poison interactions and airborne sword damage. Activate the mode for Insect pressure, then preserve a way to leave the exchange. Its former stamina-drain passive was removed, and its on-death poison does not apply in PvP Arena or Ranked.

Active skills and how to use them

| Skill | Effect | Use and limitation |
|---|---|---|
| Poison Draw Mode | While active, +20% Insect Breathing damage and 5% cooldown reduction, with movement, dash and poison bonuses. | Learn Insect separately, then use the active window for the attacks you can land. The former stamina-drain passive is removed. |
Passives and trigger conditions
| Passive | Effect | Condition |
|---|---|---|
| Insect Affinity | Insect skills poison targets and poison damage is increased. | The style interaction requires Insect attacks, learned separately from Shinora. |
| Status Immunity | Prevents poison. | Direct weapon and skill damage can still hurt you. |
| Toxic Essence | An opponent that kills you receives a brief maximum-health-based poison effect. | The on-death poison does not apply in PvP Arena or Ranked. |
| Aerial Mastery | Airborne sword attacks deal additional damage. | The condition specifies sword attacks while airborne. |
| Butterfly’s Grace | Below thirty percent health, movement speed and jump power increase. | It gives movement at low health; it does not restore lost health. |
Combat states and practical rotation
Prepare your Insect moves before activating Poison Draw Mode. Use its damage, movement and cooldown window to approach, land a short exchange and reposition.
Aerial Mastery specifically concerns airborne sword attacks. Do not transfer that bonus to every ranged art or grounded attack. Keep low-health Butterfly’s Grace as an escape aid instead of expecting it to restore HP.
- Open customization and expand Kocho to read its Skills, Passives and Stats.
- Open M → Skill Tree and select the Kocho clan branch. Unlock the active skills you want and inspect their requirements.
- Equip the corresponding skill slots and practise the triggers described above before taking the kit into a boss fight.
Common clan mistakes
Rarity, role and stat bonuses describe separate parts of the clan. A Legendary roll does not complete a trainer quest or grant a Blood Demon Art.
For a mode, fill and activate its bar before expecting mode-only effects. For a passive, satisfy the named attack, party, health or combat-time condition.
Arena and Ranked death-effect restriction
The on-death poison effect is disabled in PvP Arena and Ranked. Plan around your active attacks and defensive resources while alive instead of counting a death proc as part of the competitive exchange.
