How to Win Domain Clashes with Open Domains and Refinement

Domain battles are decided by barrier type, stat investment, and anti-domain counters. Upgrading your domain setup gives you a decisive advantage against strong opponents.

Upgrading to an Open Domain

Every technique in the mod supports an Open Domain variant. Switching to an Open Domain removes the closed barrier limitation, multiplying your domain sure-hit range by three times and directly improving your strength during domain clashes.

1. Open the Ascendant sorcery progression screen to check your advanced jujutsu unlocks and unlock the Open Domain option for your technique.

2. Open the Domain Refinement menu to view your current clash stats and attributes.

3. Invest in your dedicated Domain Refinement stat before challenging strong bosses or rival sorcerers, as higher refinement directly helps you overpower competing domains.

Surviving Enemy Domains with Hollow Wicker Basket

If an opponent wins a domain clash or traps you while your own domain is unavailable, you can still negate their guaranteed hits.

1. Unlock Hollow Wicker Basket through your sorcery progression.

2. Activate and maintain Hollow Wicker Basket as soon as an enemy domain expands around you.

3. Keep the technique active while defending against incoming physical attacks to stay protected from the domain's sure-hit effects until the domain ends or you break free.
