How to Get Homura in Verse Piece?
Getting your hands on Homura isn’t as simple as buying it from a starter island. It is a late-game fighting style, so be prepared to grind.
Prerequisites
- Level: You need to be at least Level 500+.
- Currency: Ensure you have at least 5 Million Beli (or equivalent game currency).
- Items: You may need the “Flaming Scroll” depending on the current patch update.
Step-by-Step Acquisition Guide
1. Locate the Trainer
You need to find the Homura Trainer, an NPC usually located on a volcanic or winter-themed island (depending on the current map rotation). Based on the latest update March, head over to Magma Island in the Second Sea.
- Tip: Use the “Player Tracker” if you are having trouble finding the exact NPC spawn.
2. The Quest
The Trainer won’t just sell you the style; you have to prove your worth.
- Task: Defeat 50 Fire-themed enemies (e.g., Lava Pirates or Magma Beasts).
- Boss Fight: Once the kills are done, you must defeat the Blazing Guardian, a Level 850 Boss.
3. The Purchase
After defeating the boss, return to the Trainer.
- Cost: 5,000,000 Currency.
- Dialogue: Select “I am ready to learn the way of the flame.”
4. Alternative Method: The Drop
If you don’t want to spend money, you can farm the Blazing Guardian repeatedly. There is a small chance (approx. 1-2%) that he will drop the Homura Scroll. Using this scroll will instantly teach you the style.
Homura Moveset Explaned
Homura is unique because it bridges the gap between a pure fighting style and a Logia fruit. It deals burn damage over time (DoT), which is crucial for chipping away at tanky opponents.
Here is the full breakdown of the Homura Moveset, including keybinds, damage estimates, and tactical uses.
Z Move: Blazing Claw (The Starter)
- Damage: Moderate (Base 3500)
- Cooldown: 6 Seconds
- Effect: The user coats their hand in fire and delivers a swift three-hit slash combo.
- My Take: This is your bread-and-butter move. It’s fast, has low end-lag, and applies the “Burn” effect. In PVP, use this to start your combos. The hitbox is surprisingly large, so it’s good for catching rolling opponents.
X Move: Inferno Dash (The Closer)
- Damage: Low (Base 1200)
- Cooldown: 8 Seconds
- Effect: You dash forward in a spiral of flames, knocking enemies back.
- My Take: Don’t underestimate this. While the damage is low, the utility is immense. Use this to close the gap against kiters (players who run away) or to escape a sticky situation. If you aim it correctly, it can break Instinct (Observation Haki).
C Move: Magma Eruption (The AoE)
- Damage: High (Base 5500)
- Cooldown: 12 Seconds
- Effect: You slam the ground, causing magma pillars to erupt in a straight line ahead of you.
- My Take: This is your main farming tool. The hitbox covers a wide area, making it perfect for clearing groups of NPCs. In PVP, use this to zone opponents. Force them to jump over it, then catch them with your Z move.
V Move (Ultimate): Solar Flare Destruction
- Damage: Massive (Base 12,000 + Burn DoT)
- Cooldown: 25 Seconds
- Effect: A cinematic move where the user ascends slightly and unleashes a massive fireball that explodes on contact.
- My Take: This is your finisher. It has a long startup time, so you almost never want to use this raw. Always combo into it (e.g., Z -> X -> C -> V). If it lands, it practically one-shots most players under Level 1000.
Synergy & Best Builds
Homura is powerful on its own, but it becomes a god-tier weapon when paired with the right race, fruit, and accessories. This is where many players fail—they use Homura with a build that doesn’t support its aggressive playstyle.
Best Fruits for Homura Synergy
| Fruit | Synergy Rating | Why it works |
|---|---|---|
| Dough (V2) | SSS | Dough provides the best combo extenders in the game. Use Dough to stun, then unleash Homura’s V move for a guaranteed kill. |
| Portal | S | Portal allows you to teleport directly to your opponent after knocking them back, extending Homura’s knockback-heavy moves. |
| Buddha | A+ | Buddha increases your hitbox. Homura’s C Move (Magma Eruption) becomes massive when you are in Buddha form, allowing you to grind Sea Events efficiently. |
| Leo | S | Leo allows you to manipulate your body size. You can shrink to dodge attacks, then grow large to land Homura’s V move unexpectedly. |
Best Races
- Cyborg: My top pick. The energy recovery passive allows you to spam Homura’s moves without running out of energy (Mana). Homura is energy-intensive, so this is vital.
- Ghoul: Excellent for PVP. The Life Steal allows you to tank hits while you are closing the distance with your X move.
- Fishman: If you are grinding underwater or in water-heavy zones, Fishman is the obvious choice for the speed and damage buffs.
Recommended Accessories
- Valkyrie Helmet: Essential for the speed boost and damage reduction.
- Sunglasses: Great for the extra HP pool, making you less squishy during your V move animation.
- God’s Guard: Provides critical hit chance, which makes Homura’s burn damage even more deadly.
Pro Strategies: PVP and PVE
PVP: The “Aggro Trap”
Homura is an aggressive style. Don’t play passively.
- The Bait: Run towards your opponent and use X Move (Inferno Dash). Most players will try to jump over it.
- The Catch: As they jump, immediately use Z Move (Blazing Claw). You will catch them in mid-air.
- The Lock: Follow up with C Move. If they have Instinct on, the C move breaks it.
- The Kill: Finish with V Move.
Note: Watch your energy bar! If you run out of energy during the V move startup, you are a sitting duck.
PVE: The “Magma Grinder”
For grinding Bosses or Sea Events:
- Activate Buddha Fruit (if you have it).
- Spam C Move (Magma Eruption). The large hitbox will tag multiple adds.
- Use Z Move on single high-health targets (like the Boss) for consistent DPS.
- Save V Move for when the Boss is below 30% HP to secure the kill and loot.
Common Mistakes to Avoid In 2026
I see so many players misuse Homura. Here is how to fix your gameplay:
- Using V Move Raw: Never press V unless the enemy is stunned or combo-locked. The startup is too slow, and a good player will just dash away and punish you.
- Ignoring Burn Stacking: Homura applies a burn effect. You don’t always need to hit every single move. Sometimes, applying burn and dodging is better than finishing a combo and taking a hit.
- Poor Stat Allocation: Do not put points into Fruit if you are maining Homura. Put your points into Melee and Defense. Homura scales with Melee stats.
FAQ’s
Is Homura better than Godhuman?
It depends on the situation. Godhuman has better combo potential without a fruit, while Homura offers higher raw damage and stronger area-of-effect (AoE) thanks to its fire mechanics. In the current March meta, Homura is generally preferred for grinding, whereas Godhuman excels in 1v1 sword or fist-focused builds.
Can I get Homura in First Sea?
No. Homura is a Second Sea fighting style. You must defeat the Rip Captain and complete the Military Detective quest to unlock access to the Second Sea before you can obtain Homura.
Does Homura work with Instinct (Observation Haki)?
Yes. Like all fighting styles, activating a move temporarily disables Instinct. Since Homura requires close-range combat, properly timing your Instinct dodges is critical. Dodging into an attack can help you set up your Z move effectively.
What is the mastery requirement for Homura V Move?
You generally need around 300 Mastery on the Homura fighting style to unlock the full potential of the V Move (Solar Flare Destruction). Before reaching this level, the move deals reduced damage.
Is Homura worth the 5 Million currency?
Absolutely. In 2026, Verse Piece’s economy is highly inflated, making 5 Million relatively easy to farm within a few hours of Sea Event grinding. The damage output and PVE efficiency Homura provides more than justify the cost.
Conclusion
Homura is a fantastic mid-to-late game investment in Verse Piece. Its blend of high damage, burn effects, and visual appeal makes it a favorite for many players. Whether you are grinding the latest Sea King or dominating players in the PVP arena, mastering the synergy between Homura and a support fruit like Dough or Portal will make you a force to be reckoned with.
Good luck, and enjoy burning your enemies to a crisp! Don’t forget to bookmark this page for updates on future buffs or nerfs to the Homura style.
