How to roll the Tomioka clan
Tomioka sits in the Legendary bracket: 4% of every spin — about 25 spins per Legendary on average, coin-flip at 17. Codes are the fastest spin source, with levelling milestones and quest rewards behind them. Rolls this common need no planning — the question is only when to stop settling. V0.18's reroll change (skill-tree progress survives) removes the last reason to delay the swap.

Building around Tomioka
Tomioka's value compounds with Water Breathing: Flowing Motion resets two skill cooldowns, Flowing Counter rewards blocking, and Serenity Discount's 30% off everything rebates a chunk of every trainer fee. The longer the fight, the more resets trigger.
What Tomioka plays like in real fights
Tier letters describe value; this describes experience. Rolling Tomioka changes your average fight in specific ways: your 1 active skill (Flowing Motion) becomes button you press every fight, on top of your breathing or art kit. The 5 passives (Pain Resistance, Flowing Counter, Serenity Discount, and more) run in the background of every exchange.In practice that means water Breathing players who like longer fights and cooldown resets; the Wen discount also helps progression — it effectively rebates 30% of every trainer fee. The honest test: play ten fights with the clan unequipped conceptually — the moments where you miss a skill or a passive are exactly the moments Tomioka was earning its slot.
Tomioka against the meta
Against the current V0.2-era meta: Tomioka holds its place because its value survives the common counters. Poison teams (Kocho, Iguro, Insect builds) punish non-immune kits — status immunity passives matter more than raw damage against them. Counter-heavy duelists (Soyama, Shockwave users) punish predictable openers, which is why mobility passives carry unexpected defensive value. And zone-control demons (Shabana) punish anyone who has to fight inside their terms — Tomioka's active kit at least gives you an answer to press.
Tomioka vs every other Legendary clan
| Clan | Tier | Kit shape | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tomioka (this page) | A | 1 skills + 5 passives | Water Breathing players who like longer fights and cooldown resets; the Wen discount also helps progression — it effectively rebates 30% of every trainer fee. |
| Shabana | A | 2 skills + 4 passives | Group PvE and M1-pressure demon builds — the zone buffs the whole party, and stacking Blood Poison on every swing gives real sustained damage. Solo, the value drops. |
| Kocho | A | 1 skills + 5 passives | Insect Breathing and poison builds — since V0.17 Poison Draw adds damage, speed and cooldown reduction for its duration. Poison-immune opponents blunt the whole plan. |
| Ubuyashiki | B | 3 skills + 3 passives | Farming and levelling: the EXP and drop bonuses help, but the damage and stamina penalties make it a poor combat clan. Level on it, then reroll into a fighter. |
Reading the table: kit shape predicts playstyle before stats do. Active-skill clans (press something, get a spike) reward engagement; passive-only clans reward consistency. When two clans serve the same build, the tiebreaker is usually the stat line above — health and damage factor compound across every fight, while a single-use skill only pays when its window appears.
