The latest update in Jujutsu Zero is heavily focused on late-game progression. This is not just a small content patch. It introduces a new endgame weapon, a new raid, a full evolution tree system, a fresh gear set, and a new critical mechanic that changes how builds scale. If you are level 750 and above, especially pushing 1000+, this update directly affects your progression path. Below is a full breakdown of what matters most and what you should prioritize.

New Weapon: Split Soul Katana (Level 750+)

How to Get Split Soul Katana in Jujutsu Zero Full Quest Guide

The biggest highlight of this patch is the Split Soul Katana in Jujutsu Zero.

  • Locked behind high progression
  • Requires level 750+
  • Hidden rarity weapon
  • Strong synergy with Zenin and Toji Clan

This weapon is clearly designed for physical Heavenly Restriction builds. If you use Zenin or Toji Clan, you gain additional value, making weapon builds competitive again.

New Weapon Skills

The Split Soul Katana comes with three skills:

  • Blink Partition
  • Unending Divide
  • Soul Recoil

Each skill offers strong burst and good cooldown balance. Combined with crit scaling, this weapon performs extremely well in raids.

Important: Maki Questline Order

To unlock the weapon, you must complete the new Maki questline in order. Skipping steps will block your progression. Many players may think it is bugged, but the issue usually comes from doing quests out of sequence.Follow the quest chain step by step.


Evolution Tree Expansion (Level 1000–3000)

Evolution Tree Jujutsu Zero Guide & Full Explanation

The new Evolution Tree system is designed purely for endgame players.

  • Joint paths for Sorcery, Vitality, and Defense
  • Separate questlines for each branch
  • Main evolution progression questline
  • Level scaling from 1000 to 3000

This massively extends long-term progression. It is no longer a short grind. Fully completing all branches requires rare materials and heavy farming.

If you want to maximize your build, you must complete:

  1. Sorcery branch
  2. Vitality branch
  3. Defense branch
  4. Final main evolution quest

This system adds major stat boosts and introduces a new mechanic: Super Critical Hits.


Super Critical Hits (New Endgame Mechanic)

One of the most important changes is the introduction of Super Crit.

Previously, crit rate above 100% felt wasted. Now, extra crit rate past 100% still provides value.

This changes build planning completely:

  • Crit stacking becomes stronger
  • Clans that boost crit gain more value
  • Gear focused on crit rate is now more viable

Expect meta shifts around high crit builds.


New Raid: Awaken Zenin Raid (Level 1555+)

A new raid has been added for high-level players.

  • Required Level: 1555+
  • Single difficulty
  • Main reward: Soul Crate

The Soul Crate is important because it drops:

  • Soul Fragments
  • New materials
  • New Zenin gear set pieces

If you want Split Soul Katana upgrades or future weapon crafting, this raid will become part of your farming routine.


New Gear Set: Zenin Set

The Awaken Zenin Raid introduces a new endgame gear path:

  • Zenin Artifact
  • Zenin Ring
  • Soul Embrace (Secret piece)

If the stats scale well with crit stacking and weapon builds, this set may become core for physical players.

Keep an eye on full set bonuses as more testing is done.


Enhanced Cursed Crate 2

A new version of cursed crates has been added.

  • Better drop rates than normal cursed crates
  • Drops from mini-boss quests and certain NPC activities

This is a solid quality-of-life improvement. Mini-boss farming now feels more rewarding and helps speed up progression.


New Overworld Quests (Mid to High Level)

This update also improves leveling routes for mid-game players.

New quest ranges include:

  • Curse Specialist (Level 500–530)
  • Granny Sorcerer (550–600)
  • The Manager (630–660)
  • Scared Boy & Handbag Masked Man (~690)
  • Fight Club (720–750)

If you are climbing toward endgame, these quests make leveling smoother and reduce repetitive grinding.


PvP and Balance Changes

Several adjustments were added:

  • Capture zone lag spikes fixed
  • Skins receive slightly improved damage amplification

PvP stat caps adjusted:

  • 5 air jumps
  • 50% damage reduction
  • 10,000 HP
  • 5,000 ATK
  • 50% crit rate
  • 100% crit damage

PvP should now feel more controlled and less burst-heavy.

Other changes include:

  • Love X gear drop rate increased
  • Infinite raid crate adjustments
  • New Enhanced Scroll added
  • Minor nerfs to certain drop chances
  • New Lunar Bundle added to shop

What You Should Prioritize

If you are late game:

  1. Start and complete the Maki questline in order
  2. Farm Awaken Zenin Raid for Soul Crates
  3. Test Zenin gear set
  4. Adjust your build for Super Crit scaling
  5. Begin Evolution Tree progression early

If you are mid-game:

  • Use new overworld quests for faster leveling
  • Farm Enhanced Cursed Crate 2
  • Prepare materials for future progression

This update is clearly focused on endgame expansion. Between the Split Soul Katana, the Awaken Zenin Raid, the Evolution Tree system, and Super Critical Hits, the power ceiling has increased significantly. Weapon builds are viable again. Crit stacking is more important. Long-term progression now extends far beyond level 1000. If you plan to stay competitive in Jujutsu Zero, this update is not optional. It sets the new standard for late-game content.
