Unlocking the Power of Cursed Techniques

In Anime Fighting Simulator, Cursed Techniques are among the most sought-after abilities for players looking to maximize their damage output and dominate both PvP and PvE encounters. These techniques, often inspired by popular anime series like Jujutsu Kaisen, provide unique skill sets that go beyond standard combat stats.

Unlike basic abilities, Cursed Techniques often require a mix of luck, persistence, and strategic grinding. Whether you are aiming to obtain the legendary Limitless technique or the devastating Shrine, the process involves navigating different game systems—from the RNG-heavy reroll menu to the intense, high-stakes boss raids. This guide breaks down the most effective ways to acquire these powers and optimize them for your current build.

The Rerolling Method: Luck and Chakra

The most common way to acquire various Cursed Techniques is through the game's reroll system. This is essentially a gacha mechanic where you spend in-game currency—specifically Chakra—to spin for a new technique.

For many players, this is the first step in their journey. The cost per spin can vary, and because the outcome is randomized, it requires a significant amount of Chakra reserves. Players often spend time AFK farming Chakra overnight to ensure they have enough currency for multiple rolls.

Tip

Efficient Rerolling: Before you start spinning, ensure your Chakra stats are high enough to support the cost of the rerolls. If you are low on funds, focus on your Chakra training first. Do not burn all your resources on a single session if you are close to a specific upgrade or quest goal.

It is important to note that rerolling is entirely RNG-based. You might get a high-tier technique on your first try, or you might go through dozens of spins without seeing the specific power you want. Always check your current technique's level and utility before swapping it out, as you might be replacing a reliable skill with something that requires extensive leveling to become useful.

Quest-Based Unlocks and Crafting

Some of the most powerful techniques in the game, such as the Shrine technique, are not obtained through simple rerolls. Instead, they are tied to specific quest chains and crafting requirements. This path is more reliable because it removes the RNG element, provided you are willing to put in the work to gather the necessary materials.

Based on community experience, these quests often require you to defeat specific bosses multiple times. For example, to craft the Shrine technique, you will need to collect:

  • Cursed Fingers: A rare drop from the Sukuna raid.
  • Heart Fragments: Another essential material obtained from boss encounters.
  • Cursed Essence: Dropped upon defeating the boss.

How to Unlock Shrine (Example):

  1. Accept the Quest: Locate the quest giver associated with the Cursed King/Sukuna quest line.
  2. Farm the Raid: Engage in the Sukuna raid. You will need to defeat him repeatedly to gather the required Cursed Fingers, Heart Fragments, and Essence.
  3. Prepare Your Build: Use champions that increase your damage against bosses to speed up the farming process.
  4. Craft the Technique: Once you have the required materials, return to the quest NPC or the crafting menu to finalize the unlock.
  5. Equip and Level: Equip your new technique and immediately begin leveling it to unlock its full ability set.

Dominating the Sukuna Raid

Farming the Sukuna raid is a rite of passage for players aiming for top-tier Cursed Techniques. The drop rates for items like Cursed Fingers can be frustratingly low (often around 4-5% or lower), meaning you need to be able to clear the raid quickly and efficiently.

Players who have mastered this raid suggest a specific strategy to maximize your chances:

  1. Optimize Your Loadout: Equip champions that offer damage buffs and cooldown reductions. Even if you have a "perfect" build for general play, swapping in a champion that specifically boosts damage against bosses can shave seconds off your clear time.
  2. Rotation Management: Don't just spam your basic attacks. Use your strongest abilities (like Ruler's Authority or Megado) at the start of the fight to burst down the boss's health.
  3. Use Boosts: If you have access to potions or temporary boosts, use them before entering the raid. While they may not guarantee a drop, they increase your efficiency, allowing you to run the raid more times within a set window.
  4. Manage Your Keys: You will need keys to enter the raid. Prioritize killing mini-bosses (like Toji or other Cursed spirits) in the open world to farm keys before starting your raid session.

Warning

Avoid Death: Dying during a raid can waste your keys and reset your progress on the boss. If you find yourself struggling to survive, prioritize dodging and using defensive abilities over pure DPS. A slower, consistent win is better than a fast, failed run.

Leveling Up Your Technique

Acquiring the technique is only half the battle. Many Cursed Techniques, such as Limitless or Shrine, start with limited functionality. To unlock their true potential—such as moves like Hollow Purple or Malevolent Shrine—you must level the technique up.

Most high-tier techniques require you to reach levels 40 or 60. During this phase, your damage output with that technique might feel underwhelming because you haven't unlocked the "good" moves yet.

Tip

Grinding Levels: The best place to level up is on islands with high-health enemies that you can defeat quickly. Avoid the "hollow" areas or boss zones if you are just grinding levels, as they may be too tanky and slow down your experience gain. Find a balance where you can one-shot or two-shot mobs for maximum efficiency.

Champion Synergy and Stats

Your choice of champions significantly impacts the effectiveness of your Cursed Technique. Some champions are designed to boost specific stats like Strength, while others are better suited for Chakra-based techniques.

If your chosen Cursed Technique scales off Chakra, ensure your active champions provide a Chakra damage bonus. Players have noted that even a high-tier technique can feel weak if it is not supported by the correct champion passives.

  • Cooldown Reduction: Look for champions that reduce the cooldown of your skills. This allows you to spam your most powerful moves more frequently.
  • Damage Multipliers: Prioritize champions that provide percentage-based damage increases. These scale better as you level up and increase your base stats.

FAQ

Can I trade Cursed Techniques with other players?

No, Cursed Techniques are generally account-bound and cannot be traded. You must earn them through your own gameplay, either via rerolling or completing quests.

Which technique is the best for beginners?

It depends on your current stats. However, techniques that offer high AoE (Area of Effect) damage, such as those that allow for rapid clearing of mobs, are generally preferred for leveling and farming. Experiment with what you roll and see which playstyle fits your current build.

Do I lose my previous technique when I roll a new one?

Yes, when you reroll, your previous technique is replaced. If you have a technique that you might want to use again, consider the "permanence" menus or storage options if the game allows, but generally, assume the old power is gone once you roll over it.

Is there a pity system for techniques?

Some systems in Anime Fighting Simulator have pity mechanics, but they are often limited to specific rarities (like Legendary). Do not rely on pity to get the specific Mythical-tier technique you want; focus on farming the specific quests that grant the technique you desire.
