Their combat style looks very smooth with fluid footwork, rhythmic strikes, and skills inspired by singing, acting, and combat of the traditional Chinese opera. They’ll be a fun addition, and you can soon seamlessly flow between offense and defense while performing lethal techniques.

Besides the sect, Version 1.3 also introduces a new mystic called Contortion, letting you temporarily shrink your body. This is great as it opens up new traversal opportunities for us, and we also get to do surprise attacks during clutch times. If intrigued, you can try this skill during the new Spring Festival activity Tiny Adventure.
