Yaksha Rush is a Tiered Mystic Skill in Where Winds Meet built around defense-break and a short invulnerable dash/strike sequence — useful for opening up heavy or single-target foes and chaining into big follow-ups. Because it’s gated behind endgame story content, it’s generally used on builds that already have decent stats and access to Mystic Skill upgrades.

Yaksha Rush excels as a burst opener thanks to its guaranteed defense break, allowing you to disrupt armored foes instantly and set up high-damage combos. Activate the skill to dash through your target and crack their guard, then follow up with aerial or heavy Qi attacks while the enemy is lifted for maximum impact. Its short cooldown makes it easy to weave into nearly every rotation, keeping your pressure consistent. In PvP, the Tier 3 silence effect becomes especially valuable, preventing casters from countering after you shatter their defense.
Yaksha Rush tips
- Use Yaksha Rush at the start of combat to open burst windows on shielded enemies.
- Pair it with Mystic Skills that benefit from launched or stunned targets.
- Upgrade it early — breakthrough bonuses significantly improve combat flow.
- Great for preventing boss counterattacks after defense break.
