Cataclysm example

One player uses 3 → 2 → 1 → M1 after gathering enemies. They describe 1 as a dash, 2 as a multi-hit move, and 3 as a wide-area slash. Treat this as one player's combo, not a proven highest-damage sequence; skill names and cooldowns are unconfirmed. Gameplay video

Cataclysm awakening

A player reported being short 4 Soul Fragments before awakening Cataclysm, then later evolving it and using its Ultimate with G. Four was that player's remaining amount, not the full recipe. They tried Nightmare, but the run was difficult; no best farming stage is confirmed. Check the live Evolution menu for every requirement and use a difficulty you can clear reliably. A larger awakening effect does not establish a damage multiplier. Gameplay video

Materials players have mentioned

Waves CoreMentioned while crafting a high-tier accessory.Exact item name, recipe, and source.
PendantA player claimed a pendant after completing all Daily quests before evolving Sukuna.Official item name and full requirements.
1,000 GemsMentioned as a possible cost for some awakenings.Which weapon and whether this is a fixed cost.

A later walkthrough shows seven requirements in the Evolution menu. Scroll through the full list so you do not miss materials or currency costs.

The preview describes how attacks look. Check your current weapon menu for skill names, damage, and cooldowns.

Before summoning or switching weapons

A player report describes being unable to equip two copies of Cataclysm at once. Another reports losing a weapon's Trait after summoning over it. Before a spin, check Slot 1 and Slot 2 and make sure the selected slot is the one you intend to replace. Duplicate protection and Skill Tree or Trait carryover are not confirmed.

NOTE

Cataclysm Evolution: recipe reports still disagree

Oct 8, 2026 · Guide listing

An Oct 7 Evolution guide lists a Cataclysm candidate of 60 Fine Cloths, 30 Mana Feathers, 10 Waves Cores, 12 Soul Fragments, 4 Magic Pendants, and 3,000 Gems. The earlier player report below describes a Soul Fragment counter reaching 15/15, so 12 versus 15 remains unresolved. A player being short four fragments does not mean the entire recipe costs four. Item Level's awakening screenshot shows an already-awakened Cataclysm and a 60 requirement for the cloth-shaped material, but a tooltip obscures other counts; it cannot establish the full recipe. Read and scroll your current Evolution list rather than choosing a quantity by counting websites. Evolution guide Item Level awakening screenshot and guide Earlier Cataclysm video

Author build and weapon synergy suggestions

Oct 8, 2026 · Guide listings

A Beebom build article dated Oct 7 suggests one of Cursed King, Cataclysm, or Flame Director with the Attack and Critical branches, Supernova, Blast Archer Crown, and the Flame Director title. Its alternative swaps in Deadeye and Sunglasses. The author also reports six specific synergies: Sukuna + Alucard (+10% damage), Luffy + Shanks (+15% max health), Goku + Killua (-10% cooldown), Juuzou + Nagumo (+20% Ultimate charge), Guts + Saber (+5% damage and +8% max health), and Miyabi + Saber (+8% speed and -5% cooldown). Other combinations are reported to grant +5% damage. These are author suggestions, not independently tested builds. Slot order, trigger conditions, and the scope of the general bonus are unknown; no damage ranking or build calculator is implied. Beebom build guide

NOTE

Hunter Trait: reported bonuses

Oct 3, 2026 · Player report

One player reports these Hunter bonuses: +9% damage, 3% cooldown reduction, +6% attack speed, and +1 movement speed. The same video mentions a 3.83% label, but it is unclear whether that is a reroll chance. Earlier reports give different Hunter stats, so compare the current tooltip before rerolling. The reroll target and whether Traits carry over or reset are unconfirmed. Gameplay video

Cataclysm Evolution: scroll through the full list

Oct 3, 2026 · Player report

A Cataclysm walkthrough shows a 7/7 Evolution indicator and seven requirements. Scroll through the full menu to check every material and currency cost. Another player was short 4 Soul Fragments; that was their remaining amount, not the full recipe. Exact material totals are not confirmed here. Cataclysm walkthrough

NOTE

Cataclysm title: reported Nightmare goal and bonuses

Oct 3, 2026 · Player report

A player describes the Cataclysm title goal as clearing Nightmare within 3 minutes 15 seconds without dying. Another report says under 3 minutes, and the required weapon slot is unclear. The reported bonus set is +5% damage, +10% HP, +2 speed, 5% cooldown reduction, and +5% drop rate. An older report instead gives +25% ATK and +20% HP. These values conflict; check the current title menu. Gameplay video

NOTE

Summoning: reported pity targets

Oct 3, 2026 · Player report

A player mentions a 3,500 guarantee and says they obtained the weapon after roughly 600 pulls. One displayed-rate reading is 0.005%, with counters at Mythic 55/175, Arcane 313/350, and Zenless 0/3500. Other reports give different rates and pity targets. The spin type, luck bonuses, and counter reset rules are unconfirmed. Don't plan around unconfirmed numbers; check the live banner before spending. Gameplay video
