Tiger Cannon.

Tiger Cannon belongs to Lei Dang, the Order's Envoy, and once he is beaten you take it from him as a Destructive Phantom Edge.

Mirage Estate ends with you receiving it. Its other function gives you cause to go back through earlier regions, since weakened walls in them break under its fire and the chambers beyond contain chests as well as upgrade materials. Like the Dread Axe with iron chains, it is a tool for getting through obstacles at least as much as a gun.

As a shooter it supplies strong long-distance firepower. A Phantom Edge sits in a different slot from the two main weapons, so it is intended to be drawn for a particular job, such as firing from afar or breaking open a wall.

Because Phantom Blade Zero has no published 0–100 bars for stats, this page gives the weapon's numbers as they stand at level 1.

These numbers are taken from values the game itself lists for level 1; they were not confirmed through play.

Before you start:

• Make it to the end of Mirage Estate.

1. Make your way to Mirage Estate's last stretch, which lies next to the Perfect Vessel Pond bell.
2. Beat Lei Dang, the Tiger Cannon, in a battle that runs through two phases.
3. The boss reward places Tiger Cannon among your Phantom Edges.

Walls it can break

Four crumbling walls in previous regions give way to the cannon. South of the Weeping Creek Lóng Pillar bell, one conceals a trail that terminates in a house where a chest rests. At Cliffside Lodge, take the underground route from the bell and shoot out the wall on the tunnel's northern side; a little cave and a second chest lie past it. A room containing a chest is sealed by a wall northeast of the Hidden Passage to Pangzhen bell. Southeast of the Village of Lu Shallows Dock bell, the last wall shields a collectible.

Opening the wall by the Crimson Forest lodge cellar also calls for the cannon, and a Memory Flower lies beside it.

Firing from distance

A firearm shot and a Stone-Clearing Shot are among its moves. Against bosses, the projectiles can wear down posture from afar, leaving you to close in only for the finish.

The weapon shows Status Effects as its second stat, whereas some other Phantom Edges list a Guard Break figure there.

Perks gained at each level

Materials for upgrading

Reaching level 60 from level 1 takes fifty-nine upgrades, which scale its stats by as much as 6.9 times.

Soul Tempering

Strengths

• Rooms with chests in previous regions are exposed by the walls it destroys, which makes the weapon valuable away from battle too.
• Posture on a boss can be ground down by shooting from range, with no need to enter its reach.

Weaknesses

• Because the weapon is received only as Mirage Estate finishes, you have to retrace your steps before its wall-breaking is of any use.
• It occupies its own slot, not a main weapon slot, as every Phantom Edge does.

Best used for

• Returning to earlier regions once Lei Dang is beaten, in order to open walls that blocked you the first time.
• Wearing a boss down from afar whenever getting close is risky.

A mission cost Lei Dang his right arm, but Soul rescued him, and later he attached a Tiger Cannon to what remained. Once charged, the cannon bellows like a tiger and releases heavy firepower, and this is the weapon he hands over.
