Immortal Wall is a tank build for Phantom Blade Zero: Infernal Rouge and Crescent Blade as main weapons, Iron Gauntlets and Bashpole as Phantom Edges, and Mother’s Talisman and Ancient Armor Fragment as key accessories. A tank that heals right when things are at their worst: every time your guard is broken, the Mother’s Talisman gives you health back, and while your health is high the Ancient Armor Fragment reduces the damage you take. The rest of the gear speeds up Sha-Chi recovery so you get out of the guard break sooner. The weapons don’t matter: Djisso uses Infernal Rouge or the Crescent Blade, but any will do, and most of the accessories can be picked up in the first few hours.

How to play it
- Keep your guard up even if your Sha-Chi runs dry: when it gets broken, the Mother’s Talisman heals you.
- The Agarwood Prayer Beads and the Sha-Chi Headscarf speed up recovery so you are back in the fight sooner.
- Break shields with the Iron Gauntlets or the Bashpole; Djisso insists on always carrying something that breaks them.
- If things get rough, drink Kuye Dew (less damage taken) or Merciful Dew (lots of health and Sha-Chi).
Strengths
Very hard to kill, and you can put it together in the first few hours.
Weaknesses
It deals little damage: fights drag on.
Where this build comes from
It is our adaptation of the build “The MOST BROKEN Build in Phantom Blade Zero” published by Djisso (YouTube). We took its idea and its pieces, checked each one against our item pages (effect and where to get it) and wrote the guide in our own words. Djisso also wears an accessory called Boulderguard (−20% damage as long as your guard is not broken, upgraded) that we don’t have on our item pages yet; we put Battleforged in its slot. He has the Mother’s Talisman at +2 (20% health) and the Ancient Armor Fragment at +3 (up to −40%); the tables give the base effect. According to the video, the character sometimes survives at zero health; Djisso thinks it is a bug, and we have not been able to verify it.

Frequently asked questions
What do I need for the Immortal Wall build?
Infernal Rouge (tempering the Sanguine with the Bastion of Mó Mask), Crescent Blade (Yuding No. 12), Iron Gauntlets, Bashpole, at least the Mother’s Talisman and Ancient Armor Fragment accessories, and the Kuye Dew and Merciful Dew medicines. The table “How to get all the gear” shows where each piece is.
When can I start using Immortal Wall?
From the Encampment, Meigu, Imprisonment and Estate stage, which is when you have the weapons, the Phantom Edges and the two key accessories.
Are the damage figures official?
The accessory percentages are the ones published by Vandal and SoloJugadores. The game does not show the weapons’ base damage, so the build is based on their effects.
