Enma in Haze Seas - Boss Damage Weapon

Enma Overview

Enma is an S-tier weapon in the Second Sea, specializing in boss damage. Named after the notorious sword that demands its wielder's Haki, Enma rewards aggressive play with armor-piercing attacks and a unique mechanic that increases damage the more you commit to combat. It is the best weapon for PvE boss farming and a strong PvP option for players who prefer high-risk, high-reward playstyles.

How to Get Enma

Unlike Yoru's RNG-based acquisition, Enma has a clear crafting path that any dedicated player can complete.

Crafting Requirements

1. Enma Hilt: Dropped by the Wano Shogun boss (20% drop rate)
2. Cursed Blade Shard x5: Dropped by Samurai NPCs in the Wano area (10% per kill)
3. Haki Essence x3: Purchased from the Haki Trainer for 50,000 Beli each
4. Second Sea Forge Access: Unlocked after completing the Second Sea introduction quest line

Total Cost

• Approximately 150,000 Beli (Haki Essence + forge fee)
• 5-8 Shogun kills (on average for the hilt)
• 50+ Samurai NPC kills (on average for 5 shards)
• 2-3 hours of dedicated farming

This makes Enma significantly more accessible than Yoru. Most mid-game players can obtain Enma within a week of reaching the Second Sea.

Move Set

M1 Combo (Basic Attacks)

Enma's M1 combo consists of 4 slashes with a distinctive purple Haki glow:

1. First Slash: Quick horizontal (1,100 damage)
2. Second Slash: Upward diagonal (1,200 damage)
3. Third Slash: Downward slam (1,300 damage, slight stagger)
4. Fourth Slash: Spinning horizontal (1,500 damage, armor-piercing)

The 4th hit of Enma's M1 combo is armor-piercing, meaning it ignores 50% of the target's damage reduction. This makes Enma particularly effective against tanky bosses and Buddha form users.

Skill 1: Haki Slash

• Damage: 2,600
• Cooldown: 9 seconds
• Range: 10 meters (wave slash)
• Description: Release a Haki-infused slash wave forward. Haki Slash is armor-piercing (ignores 30% damage reduction) and deals bonus damage to bosses (+20% against boss-type enemies). This is your primary damage tool in boss fights - the armor piercing ensures consistent damage even against high-defense targets.

Skill 2: Rising Demon

• Damage: 1,800 (rising slash) + 1,200 (aerial slash)
• Cooldown: 11 seconds
• Range: 6 meters (melee)
• Description: An upward slash that launches you and the target into the air, followed by an aerial slash. Rising Demon is your combo extension tool - the launch gives you time to follow up with other skills or M1 chains. The aerial portion has a wider hitbox than the ground portion.

Skill 3: Enma's Judgment

• Damage: 4,500
• Cooldown: 20 seconds
• Range: 8 meters (targeted melee)
• Description: Your strongest skill and one of the highest single-hit weapon damages in the game. Focus Haki into Enma and deliver a devastating downward slash. Enma's Judgment is fully armor-piercing (ignores 100% damage reduction) and deals +30% bonus damage against bosses. The catch is the 1.0-second wind-up during which you are stationary and vulnerable. Only use this when the target is staggered or stunned.

Passive: Haki Drain

Enma has a unique passive mechanic - the sword drains your Haki meter while equipped, but in return, each skill deals bonus damage proportional to your current Haki level. At full Haki, Enma's skills deal +15% damage. At empty Haki, skills deal normal damage. This mechanic rewards aggressive players who maintain their Haki through combat.

Combo Potential

Boss Burst Combo

1. Haki Slash (armor-piercing opener) > M1 x3 > Rising Demon (launch) > aerial M1 x2 > Enma's Judgment (armor-piercing finisher while target is airborne)
2. Expected damage: ~13,000 - 16,000 (with boss damage bonus)
3. This is the highest single-target weapon damage combo in the game against bosses

PvP Standard Combo

1. Rising Demon (launch + combo start) > M1 x3 > Haki Slash (armor-piercing burst) > M1 x2 > Enma's Judgment (finisher)
2. Expected damage: ~10,000 - 13,000

Enma + Dragon Claw Combo

1. Dragon Claw Talon Rush (gap close) > M1 x3 > Rising Demon (launch) > Dragon Claw Dragon Strike (aerial burst) > Enma's Judgment (armor-piercing slam)
2. Expected damage: ~14,000 - 17,000

Anti-Buddha Combo

1. Haki Slash (30% armor pierce) > M1 x4 (4th hit is armor-piercing) > Enma's Judgment (100% armor pierce)
2. Expected damage: ~9,000 - 11,000 (effective damage against Buddha's damage reduction)

Upgrade Path

Haki Infusion

Enma benefits more from Haki Infusion than any other weapon due to its Haki Drain passive. With Armament Haki infusion:

• +15% weapon damage
• Haki meter drains 30% slower (longer +15% damage window)
• Purple Haki visual effect

Enchantments

• Cursed Edge Enchantment: +20% boss damage (stacks with Enma's natural boss bonus for +50% total)
• Haki Leech Enchantment: Killing enemies restores Haki meter, extending your damage bonus window
• Sundering Blade Enchantment: Armor-piercing effect increased by 10%

The Cursed Edge enchantment is the best for boss farming. Haki Leech is better for PvP where kills restore your resource.

Pros and Cons

Pros

• Highest boss damage of any weapon
• Armor-piercing on multiple attacks (4th M1, Haki Slash, Enma's Judgment)
• Craftable with a clear path - no RNG required beyond boss drops
• +20-30% bonus damage against bosses makes it essential for PvE endgame
• Rising Demon provides combo extension that works with every fighting style
• Haki Drain passive rewards aggressive play

Cons

• Slow swing speed compared to Yoru (medium vs. very fast)
• Enma's Judgment has a 1.0-second wind-up that can be interrupted
• Haki Drain mechanic means your damage drops if you play passively
• Only available in the Second Sea (cannot obtain in First Sea)
• Less effective in PvP than Yoru due to slower swing speed and wind-ups
• Requires Haki management that adds complexity to gameplay

Best Pairings

• Fruit: Venom or Magma - both benefit from extended boss fights where Enma's armor-piercing damage shines
• Fighting Style: Dragon Claw - provides the gap closer and burst damage that complements Enma's slower weapon skills
• Race: D. Clan - Conquerors Haki stagger guarantees Enma's Judgment lands for massive armor-piercing damage
