How to Get Cursed Techniques: The Technique Banner System
You don’t start with a powerful technique in Jujutsu Zero; you must acquire one through the gacha system called the Technique Banner. Understanding this system is crucial for your progression.
The Technique Banner Mechanics
The Technique Banner is a gacha system where you spend Lumens to spin for technique shards. Once you collect enough shards, the technique unlocks permanently. Here’s what you need to know:
- Cost per spin: 100 Lumens
- Pity system: Guarantees rare techniques after exactly 100 pulls
- Shard system: Need multiple shards to unlock a technique
- Dual banner types: Regular banners and limited-time rate-up banners
Farming Lumens: Your Key to Spins
Lumens are the premium currency essential for spinning the Technique Banner. Here are all the proven methods to farm Lumens efficiently:
1. Chest Exploration (Most Efficient Free Method)
- What to do: Explore the entire game map opening chests
- Rewards: Up to 3,500+ Lumens per chest (enough for 10+ spins)
- Strategy: Focus on high-grade chests first, they yield better rewards
- Note: Chests don’t respawn, making this a one-time but highly rewarding method
2. AFK Realm (Passive Income)
- What to do: Go AFK and you’ll automatically enter the AFK Realm
- Rewards: Accumulate spins that can win tons of Lumens
- Strategy: Leave your game running overnight for maximum gains
- Efficiency: Great for passive farming while you sleep or work
3. Yen Exchange (Late Game Strategy)
- Rate: 100 Yen = 1 Lumen
- Best for: High-level players who can farm Yen quickly
- Strategy: Focus on Yen farming methods, then exchange at the Lumen Merchant
- Note: Not recommended for beginners as Yen is needed for skill unlocks
4. Free Methods (Must Do Daily)
- Daily Quests: Complete every day for streak bonuses
- Story Progression: First-time completion gives generous Lumen rewards
- PvP Rewards: Climb ranked PvP for seasonal Lumen rewards
- Events: Participate in limited-time events for massive Lumen rewards
- Achievements: Complete in-game achievements for one-time Lumen bonuses
- Redeem Codes: Use active codes for instant Lumens (check our codes section)
5. YouTube Subscription Rewards (Free Lumens)
The game offers free Lumens for subscribing to the developer’s YouTube channel! Here’s how to claim:
- Subscribe to the game developer’s official YouTube channel (Rellly)

- Sequential Unlocking: Must unlock skills in order (1st before 2nd, etc.)

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get more cursed techniques?
You can obtain many techniques from the banner, but you can only have two equipped and active at any given time. However, you can collect as many as you want in your inventory and switch between them as needed.
Is it possible to get a Special Grade technique without Robux?
Absolutely! While it relies on luck and may take significant time, you can earn all the necessary Lumens through consistent farming of chests and Yen. The pity system guarantees a Special Grade after 100 pulls (10,000 Lumens).
What’s the best use of my Yen?
Early on, focus on unlocking key skills in your main techniques. As you level up and farm faster, exchanging Yen for Lumens at the merchant becomes more viable for additional banner spins.
Can I switch my equipped techniques?
Yes, you can freely change your two equipped techniques from your inventory, allowing you to adapt your build for different activities like PvE farming or player combat.
How do I get Domain Expansion?
Currently, only Limitless has Domain Expansion. To unlock it:
- Get Domain Fragments from Raid Chest rewards
- Reach Limitless Mastery level 100
- Go to the Technique menu and purchase the Domain Expansion using your Domain Shard
What’s the best technique for beginners?
Star Rage is excellent for beginners due to its safe ranged attacks and all-airborne abilities. Ratio is also great for PvP-focused beginners with its fast moves and mobility.
How do I perform Black Flash?
When fighting enemies or bosses, you’ll see two circles appear during their attacks – a larger one rapidly shrinking toward a smaller one. To perform a Black Flash, you must press M1 at the exact moment when the two circles align perfectly.
When can I play Raids?
Raids unlock at Level 100. They’re worth playing since they drop Raid Chests which contain the best gear, Domain Shards, and more.
Do clan and technique synergize?
Yes! Certain clan bonuses complement specific techniques well. For example, Gojo clan boosts work great with Limitless, and Okkotsu clan’s large energy pool is excellent for energy-hungry techniques like Disaster Flames.
