This guide details how to acquire this powerful weapon.

Updated January 15, 2025, by Nathan Round: The Typhoon Blade's popularity has soared, making it a top choice for both mobility and close-range combat. This guide has been updated to highlight guaranteed acquisition methods, providing valuable assistance to players seeking this coveted weapon.

How To Get The Typhoon Blade

Looting Typhoon Blade Stands

The most reliable method for obtaining the Typhoon Blade is by looting Typhoon Blade Stands. These stands are located at specific points across the island, but their appearance isn't guaranteed at every spawn point. Here are some key locations to check:

• Flooded Frogs
• Magic Mosses
• Lost Lake
• Nightshift Forest
• Shogun's Solitude

Once you've found a stand, simply interact with it to claim your Typhoon Blade.

Chests & Floor Loot

If you prefer avoiding high-traffic areas, the Typhoon Blade can also be found in chests and as floor loot. While this method relies on luck, it provides an alternative acquisition route if stands in your vicinity have already been looted.

Defeating Demon Warriors

Another way to obtain a Typhoon Blade is by defeating Demon Warriors. These enemies spawn at active portals around the map (three per portal). They're clearly marked on your map. Defeating a Demon Warrior wielding a Typhoon Blade offers a chance to acquire it, although they may also carry one of two Oni Masks.

Purchase From Kendo

For a guaranteed Typhoon Blade, visit Kendo, located northeast of Nightshift Forest. However, you must first complete all five stages of his Melee Expertise Quests to unlock the purchase option.

Defeating Shogun X (Mythic Only)

A Mythic Typhoon Blade awaits those brave enough to defeat Shogun X in Shogun's Arena. This is a challenging encounter, but the reward is well worth the effort.

How To Use The Typhoon Blade

The Typhoon Blade is a melee weapon offering both damage and mobility. Its durability depletes with each use, resulting in its eventual loss.

Here's a summary of its abilities:

• Passive Ability: Increased sprint speed and reduced stamina consumption while equipped.
• Attack: A slashing attack dealing 30 damage per hit, chainable into a combo attack (final hit deals 50 damage). A downward attack is possible mid-air, nullifying fall damage.
• Cyclone Slash: A heavy attack dealing 90 damage and repelling enemies. A 10-second cooldown follows each use.
• Wind Leap: A mid-sprint jump for added mobility and fall damage negation.
• Air Dash: A mid-air dash forward, negating fall damage.
