The "Way of the Rain Cutter" is one of the esoteric secret techniques of the Guhua Sect.

Guhua Sword: Raincutter is Xingqiu's Elemental Burst.

Gameplay Notes[]

  • Sword rain attacks have a 1-second cooldown.
  • Rain Sword effects carry over from Xingqiu's Elemental Skill, Guhua Sword: Fatal Rainscreen. Increased resistance to interruption, damage reduction, and application of Wet status to enemies still apply.
    • During this skill's duration, the maximum number of Rain Swords is maintained and the swords cannot be shattered or expire before the duration ends.
  • Rainbow Bladework generally hits only one target at a time but may hit multiple targets if they are very close together.
  • If the triggering Normal Attack hits multiple targets, Rainbow Bladework will aim at the closest or the first target hit.
  • Rainbow Bladework's Sword Rain DMG does not snapshot and will be affected by changes in Xingqiu's stats after Guhua Sword: Raincutter is cast.
