Divine Instruments
Main-slot feel: Combines two families
Mixed pairing
Sub-slot role: Covers a weakness in the main weapon.
Quick notes
- Choose a main weapon for your rhythm. Reflectors offer accessible close combat, Rosaries extend a chain of strikes, and Glaives reward deliberate heavy attacks.
- Read the sub-weapon function separately. An instrument behaves differently in the sub slot.
- Combine weapons with the brush. Combat is designed around attacks and brush effects working together.
- Test upgrades before the next boss. New instruments and dojo skills add options that need practice.
Read the sub-weapon function separately

Useful tip
New instruments and dojo skills add options that need practice.
