Protecting a weapon

The Swordsman at Training Grounds binds your equipped weapon for one Chakra Fragment. A bound weapon survives death; selling it or changing weapon type removes the binding.

Infusion choices

Increased Infusion Time adds 15 seconds. Gold Infusions permits gold-type weapons to accept gems. The basic tree marks these choices as mutually exclusive. Otsutsuki Blood Weapons cannot be permanently infused; check your build before purchasing an infusion upgrade.
