Frequently Asked Questions
Is reworked Judgeman better than original?
Yes. The rework completely overhauled the moveset with 5 unique moves (Gavel Smash, Gavel Sweep, Confiscation, Guillotine Execution, Objection!) plus a reworked domain. Original Judgeman was underpowered with only 2 viable moves. The rework makes it meta-viable for both PvE and PvP.
How do I get the Executioner Sword?
The Executioner Sword is obtained by WINNING the Rock-Paper-Scissors minigame during Deadly Sentencing (domain expansion). If you win RPS, you receive the Executioner Sword which grants +60% bonus damage for the remainder of the domain. A tie or loss means no sword — just the base +30% domain damage.
Does Judgeman domain require a Domain Shard?
Yes — Deadly Sentencing requires one Domain Shard to unlock. Farm Domain Shards from Soul King boss or Nightmare Mode. See the Domain Shard farming guide.
Is Judgeman better for PvE or PvP?
Both are viable post-rework. PvE boss farming is the strongest use case — win domain RPS for Executioner Sword +60% damage, then land Guillotine Execution on low-HP bosses. PvP is competitive but requires mastering Confiscation timing and domain RPS mind games.
