Beginner's Guide: Huashan

Dear Wanderers!
Welcome to the Huanshan Guide! Here, you'll learn all you need to know about this fierce class wielding sharp blades, starting from the history of the sect down to every minute detail of their gameplay in Wandering Swordius⚔!

History of the Sect

The Huashan Sect is renowned throughout Jianghu for its unique style of swordsmanship. Its unparalleled disciples, whose movements epitomize grace and danger, leave everyone around them stunned with awe.

However, behind the sect's beautiful facade lies a tense atmosphere that cannot be overlooked. Rumors circulate that the sect leader and his first disciple, both legendary sword masters, have become entangled in complex and mysterious relationships that are beginning to undermine the sect's ideals. Some believe that jealousy, envy, and a thirst for power are at the root of this crisis, while others think it is merely a trial that will ultimately strengthen the sect.

It is uncertain how and when this story will end, but one thing is clear – the outcome will be unpredictable.


Sect Speciality

The primary focus of the Huashan Sect is dealing damage using Sword Power. Each sect has its own two specializations, and for Huashan, these are: Qi Faction and Sword Faction.

Qi Faction: Disciples can deal damage in both close and ranged combat and can enter a state where they become immune to control effects.

Sword Faction: Disciples have extremely high mobility and their skills are enhanced with each stack.
